Story
Winnie is a sweet, vocal girl who came to us as a hungry and pregnant stray in January 2025. We gave her a safe place to regain her health and have her litter of kittens. She is now spayed and her kittens have found their forever homes. She loves human company and knows her name well. She has a special love for wet food and churus, but also enjoys chattering with her humans and cheek scratches. She does not like other cats, which is why we need to find a new home for her for where she can feel secure as the only kitty in the household. Though she spent some time outdoors as a baby, she would be better suited to an indoor-only lifestyle, but she is microchipped just in case. // Likes: Human company, eating wet food with water mixed in, chatting back and forth with her humans, made-up songs with her name in it, and cheek scratches. // Dislikes: Other cats, dirty litter, and an empty food bowl.

Story
Gizzy was found alongside several other cats, and while he can be a little reserved at first, he truly enjoys human company once he feels comfortable. With a bit of patience, his sweet and affectionate personality shines through. He loves being near his people, sharing quiet moments, and soaking up gentle attention. Gizzy is a calm, easygoing cat who would thrive in a peaceful home where he can feel secure and loved. He gets along well with other cats, enjoys gentle play, and is perfectly content spending his days lounging in cozy spots nearby. Neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations, Gizzy is ready to find a kind and understanding family who will give him the time he needs to settle in—and be rewarded with a loving, loyal companion.
