Scruffy was found outdoors last winter and my nephew did not do a lot of socializing with him. I have worked with him for several months and he is better. He is not a lap cat and has his boundaries you have to respect. He gets along with 7 out of 9 cats we have. I cannot keep him, I’m only allowed 2 cats. He just wants to play and be loved. He loves laser pointers and toys.

Story
Electra was a stray here in town. A year prior Electra's mom had a litter of 8 kittens on a rental property. We took one of those kittens with the renter's permission of the home at the time, since these were their cats. Had no idea that they were going to move out of that rental house, take the mama cat and leave all the kittens. We made it our mission to catch the rest before the big snow storm that hit in January 2025. Our friends managed to catch one of the kittens, bringing us to take care of Electra. We had suspisions she might be pregnant. A few months later she had a little of 6 kittens, all healthy we raised them all and gave them to family and friends who wanted them. We tried immigrating Electra to our home of 3 cats. She did not mesh well with them, they would get into some serious scrap fights. She's the most loving and will cuddle with us all day. She once had a family that wanted her and she got along with their dog. She came back to us due to complications w/ home.

Story
Happy Cat is just that, a happy girl. She is 8 years old one picture is when I got her, she loves the dogs. And is a Siamese blue point. I would never consider finding a home for her except my younger cats are now pestering her. They jump on her and chase her around. She does like to stay in my bedroom but when she is in the cat box the other cats run her off, She eats well, and I will be worming my cats for they are due. If you choose, she does need her shots. Happy has lived in the house and has never been let outside. Please indoor home only. She loves to sleep on the bed but a nice cat bed she also likes. Specially a heated one for the winter. Please let me know if you would like to meet her. Thank you, JoAnn

Good with kids, Good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained,
Story
Briggs is a very shy boy. He has some mobility issues but is still VERY sweet. He will need time to adjust but once he does he is very loving and snuggly. We rescued him from an abusive situation about 1 year ago, he has turned into quite a little charmer in our home. All we ask of his new owners is understanding for him at the beginning, he will acclimate very well given time and be a very good boy. He also gets along very well with other cats.

Story
Stranger showed up about 3 years ago as a young adult. Only in the last 6 months has he let me pet him. He’s now living on my porch seemingly 24/7 and is extremely affectionate. He’s ready to be an indoor boy. He’s never lived indoors and is just learning how to be a domestic cat. He loves to sit on my lap and nuzzle. He used to be very deferential with my 4 cats, but now that he lives on the porch he has become more territorial. I think in a new setting he could adapt to living with other cats. He’s still somewhat wary of new people but quick to warm up. He just had vaccinations and was neutered. He’s very sweet and is ready for a home and even more affection than I can give him with already having 4 cats. It will be an adjustment as he learns how to be a domestic kitty, but I don’t think it would take long. He’s a real love bug and a sweetie.
