Story
Biscuits is a very sweet, outgoing, vocal petite lady. We have had her in our home since she was approximately 7 months old (adopted from a small, rescue in our area) and she is currently 2 years old. She has been in our home for a little over two years, which includes young children, our dog, and another bonded cat she was adopted with, Buttercup (see additional profile). We are attempting to rehome Biscuits at no fault of her own. She loves curling up in my lap, but definitely requires a bit more love and attention than she currently gets. She is active, loves to play, but she is not a big fan of our children who are very loud and I am the only member of our household she seems to be fully comfortable with. Sadly, I suffer from significant cat allergies and it’s a bit of a sad thing to admit. I simply can’t provide her with what she deserves due to our busy home life and schedule.

Story
Our cat’s name is Lucy. She is approximately six years old and is up-to-date on all of her shots. She has been an amazing cat, however, she is not particularly good with children, especially young children, and we have three young children in our lives. She would do much better with just older children and adults. She is good with other cats and we would love to rehome her with our male cat Charlie, who is approximately the same age, but we understand that may not be possible. We adopted Charlie and Lucy from the shelter in Lawrence when they were kittens. We just want a family who will love Lucy as much as we have and will take good care of him. She will come with a lot of equipment, toys, etc.

Story
Buttercup is a large, neutered male with fawn/orange long hair. He’s a more reserved cat, not very vocal (but you may hear a very quiet chirrup or meow if you’re lucky). He is bonded with our cat, Biscuits, who will need to adopted as well if possible. He does love to sit near or on your lap, and is tolerant of most affection. We adopted Buttercup from a small, local rescue group when he was approximately 7 months old, and he will be turning 3 years old come spring 2026. We are rehoming our cats due to severe allergies I have developed and our busy, loud home life which is what I think the cats could do without. Our home includes three, small children and a dog. While the cats don’t love the dog, they do respect her space and will simply leave the area when she gets too close. She is not aggressive towards the cats in anyway, and they coexist very well.

Story
Needing to rehome my two cats. My husband and I are looking to start a family this year and our house is too small to support all of us. Two male cats- not brothers but need to go to the same home. Archie (grey, 10 years old) and Sullie (white, 9 years old). Both neutered and well taken care of. Very sweet and lovable boys. Good with kids but would be better in a home without a dog. If adopted, they'll come with all supplies: two litter boxes, a litter genie, two automatic feeders, two waterers, vet records, treats, etc. Archie does have a chronic illness that he takes a very cheap medicated treat for. Hoping to find these two sweet boys a great home to where they can have the space, time, and attention they deserve!

Story
Vidalia is sweet, playful, and cuddly. She loves to play and eat and my other cat poops on the floor whenever she sees her. I think Vida is 1 or 2 years old. She just had a checkup and shots and was very brave. She loves people and loves to play games.
