Story
Thereso came to us as a stray, but not in the usual way—a staff member found him taking shelter in their vehicle, trying to find a safe place to hide. It was clear right away that he had been through a lot and was unsure of people, but underneath the fear was a gentle and affectionate soul just waiting to come out. Though still shy and learning to trust, Thereso is making progress every day. He may take some time to feel comfortable, but once you're holding him, he melts into your chest with the sweetest purrs. He wants to be loved—he's just figuring out how. Thereso is looking for a calm, patient home with someone who understands that trust takes time. If you’re willing to give him that space and kindness, you’ll be rewarded with a truly special bond. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and has tested negative for FIV and FeLV. Thereso doesn’t need much—just a quiet place, a warm lap, and someone willing to let him blossom at his own pace. Could that someone be you?

Story
Ximena's journey into our care was nothing short of extraordinary. She arrived in a tote, in the middle of giving birth to her six kittens. Despite the chaos, she handled it all with calm and grace. And as if that weren’t enough to prove what an incredible mama she is, Ximena later took on three more orphaned kittens who had no mom of their own. She raised all nine with love and patience, and now it's finally her turn to be taken care of. Ximena is a sweet, gentle soul who loves to lounge in a soft bed, enjoy a few treats, and lean in for snuggles. She's low-key and affectionate—the kind of cat who will happily keep you company without demanding too much. She is now spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and has been tested for FIV and FeLV. After being such a devoted mom, Ximena is more than ready to be someone’s pampered companion. If you're looking for a calm, loving cat with a beautiful spirit and an incredible story, Ximena is waiting to meet you.
