Story
Binx came to us through the cat distribution center about two years ago. It was a cold March day and she ended up in our fenced in backyard somehow yelling at our back door. We fed her and pet her but she was reluctant to trust. Eventually it was going to be a late spring snow storm so we decided to bring her inside. We already had three other cats and thought it would be crazy to keep a fourth. So I had her as a shop cat at the metaphysical shop I managed. Eventually the buisness had to close and we could not find her a home. At this point I was very attached to her so we tried to make it work with 4 cats. Binx has never gotten along with any of the other cats. She does ok with dogs but I believe she needs to be a home that she is the main focus. She takes a very long time to trust people but when she does she is so sweet. We love her so dearly but we have tried everything to make her and our other pets happy such as pheromones, calming collars, and anxiety meds but it is sadly time.

Story
Brewspurr (Brews) is a nearly 7 year old black cat with one eye. He is an especially cuddly and affectionate boy, and really likes people. He is a very active cat and loves a good feather to chase, a fuzzy mouse to throw around the house, or just a good dustball that was kicked up into the air. We adopted Brews from an animal shelter when he was a few months old and have had him since. We are looking to rehome him due to needing to meet his needs and the needs of our other pets. We have always had 2 older cats, and he has not gotten along well with one of them. Brews is quite sensitive to the atmosphere of the home. He has anxiety that he is medicated for, and this anxiety stems from his issues with the older cat. His anxiety can cause urinary cystitis, that has been well-manages with special diet. However, as the other cats age and have more medical issues, his health and well-being seem to deteriorate as well. He would be best suited in a one cat home.

Story
Bubby is a sweet affectionate boy with a cute little meow. He is obsessed with getting pets and butt scratches and is a playful curious boy once he gets comfortable (or after you've given him a few pieces of chicken). He is fearful but becomes extremely loving once he becomes familiar with you. He is also very clumsy! He has 0 behavioral issues and is a wonderful pet-- I'm just moving + starting a new job and can't give him the time and attention he needs anymore unfortunately. Age: 4

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Kona is looking for someone with lots of patience and lots of love to give him! Before he was brought to us Kona was found living in the woods and eventually the house he was living under had caught fire. He can be pretty shy at first, but after he becomes comfortable he's a total lover! He's still learning that not all people are scary (who can blame him?). Kona likes to be around other cats and will gladly share his food, toys and bed with them. Playtime with toys on sticks especially if they're strings dangling on the end is his favorite! If he let's you pet & scratch him behind his ears and he will purr with delight. Stop by the shelter anytime we are open to meet Kona!

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
This sweet girl was found as a stray. She was brought to Furry Friends Refuge to be spayed, when it was discovered she has a birth defect to her front left leg, but she gets around just great. Her Sternum did not form properly before she was born, so her heart is only protected by her skin. She absolutely LOVES people and wants nothing more than to be pet and loved. Although her medical issues may seem a bit scary, Jabari will let nothing stop her and continues to run, jump, and play like any other young cat should. She wouldn't mind living with other cats or low energy dogs but also wouldn't mind keeping the attention of her owner to herself. If you have a safe quiet place in your life for this sweet girl, please contact us to meet her and her foster mom will answer any questions.
