Story
Sebastian was found wandering around our farm in August. We couldn't find a momma cat around and the neighbors didn't claim him. He is about 5-6 months old. He is neutered and has all his kitten shots including rabies. He was neutered in October. Sebastian is an absolutely amazing kitten and loves to snuggle. Very good with other cats and dogs. He loves people and to be picked up. The reason he is needing a forever home is that we already have a senior cat and a dog. A third animal isnt in the cards for us. We wanted to save him from the summer heat waves and make sure he was healthy before we found him a home. We feel that time has come. We are only asking an adoption fee to help offset the neutering and shots. His vet records can be transferred to whatever new vet you'd like. Sebastian wants to meet you!

Story
Meet Oatmeal, the silliest and sweetest little soul you’ll ever meet! She’s a total lovebug who brings non-stop joy. When she’s ready to play, she’ll climb up or gently tug at your legs to get a game of chase going. But she also has a soft, curious side—she’s literally the kind of cat who stops to smell the roses! Oatmeal adores getting kisses and is a world-class snuggler. She’ll squeeze into any tiny spot for a nap, but her absolute favorite thing is tucking herself under blankets and building her own secret cozy tunnels. She gets along wonderfully with nice cats and gentle kids. As for food, this sweetheart knows what she likes: strictly wet food and cat pop treats! If you’re looking for a darling, quirky, and affectionate companion, Oatmeal is ready to snuggle her way into your heart!

Story
There are two baby brothers that were rescued from outside. They’ve been in my care for two months. I was hoping to be able to rehome them, but I’ve had no luck. They are very playful and loving. They get along great with my adult cat. They will cuddle and sleep with you on the bed all night long. If I didn’t already have four cats, I would keep them. I really hope somebody will choose one or both of them to be a part of your family for a long time, they will make you very happy.

Story
Sunny loves people and is very energetic and loves to play. She now lives with an infant and doesn’t have the attention she deserves. She does play too rough sometimes which is concerning around a baby! She is very smart and loves to chat and follow her people around. She needs a home that can play with her and give her the attention she needs.

He transitioned from being an outdoor kitten to a full-time indoor cat. I am looking for a new home for him because of medical expenses related to his arthritis.Christmas is:• Good with kids and other cats• Neutered, litter box trained, and microchipped• A "great cat" who has been a long-term companion• Particular about how he is pet—he prefers gentle pets straight down his backChristmas has arthritis in his front left leg. He needs pain medication, though he has been resistant to taking it so far. He is a wonderful companion but appreciates his own space and does not like to be moved from his spot or shoved aside.
