Story
Parker is 1.5 years old and I got him from an adoption agency. Parker loves activity and the outdoors. He is very enthusiastic about play and chasing his spring toys. He’s very personable, loves people, and enjoys belly rubs. His napping poses are hilarious. He’s goofy, spunky, cuddly, affectionate, and very people friendly.

Story
I adopted Soren from the Lawrence Humane Society in 2017, and I have done my best to take care of him for nearly 10 years. I believe he is around 11 years old. Soren needs someone with much more patience than I have, and is able to be more mobile than I am. He loves attention, and seeks it all day long. He throws up every 1-2 days, I have taken him to several different vets about this, and each have said that this is just normal behavior for him. I have tried every possible "sensitive stomach" food I can find, and none have helped. He has also recently decided that he would rather go #2 on the concrete in the basement. I have no idea why. He otherwise still uses the litterbox. Ideally, the best fit for him is someone experienced with caring for difficult cats, as I no longer have it in me to do so. I have mobility issues in my lower back that make cleaning up after him difficult, and I am busy with my job throughout the day and cannot pay attention to him how he wants me to.

Story
Clover is a really sweet cat; she loves to run around and explore new places. She is not fond of outside, so she does not run when you open up the door. She does not know how to open doors or cabinets. She does like to climb counters and the fridge. She is good with car rides and will sit still after around 10-minutes in the car. She is very playful, so she needs toys and a scratch pad. She is litter trained and does not go anywhere else in the house. She is 9 months old. I am looking for an owner that loves cats, has other cats preferably because she loves to play and gets bored. I am moving which is why I cannot take her, but she loves people and all of my friends love to come over to see her. Clover comes with a litter box, automatic food feeder, toys, a little cat bed, food, and she is spayed.

Story
We recently adopted JJ from a friend who needed to move and re-home him. During our care with him, he was diagnosed with diabetes and we can no longer afford the medical expense. He requires insulin shots twice per day and we do not have the time to give him the care he deserves. He is incredibly affectionate and cuddly. We are heartbroken to give him up, but we want to find the best home for what he needs.

Story
We adopted Ellie 7 years ago from the Topeka Helping Hands Humane Society. She is a petite (9 lbs) but spunky cat who got along well with our other cat (who has since passed) and our dogs. She took a few weeks to get used to our newest dog but we supplied her with a tall cat tower and now she's happy to share the floor with everybody. She is 11 years old now and has spent her life as an indoor-outdoor cat. She developed an allergy a few years ago and I give her a prescription (atopica) daily to prevent hair loss on her back. I could never figure out what the allergy was to. She is very loving and loves to massage my tummy while I'm watching TV. She also participates in my online yoga sessions. I believe that she'd be fine staying indoors since she's now getting older. I am moving into town after spending 36 years in the country. My new housing will take dogs but not a cat. I've asked quite a lot of friends but haven't been able to find a good home for her yet. She's a gem.
