Story
Balto is a neutered tabby about 1.5 years old. Extremely human friendly and not scared of anything really. Very smart (I’ve taught him a few tricks) and very food motivated. He would do best as the only cat (though he may get along just fine with female cats). He is not aggressive, he just plays too rough and doesn’t understand my cats boundaries. He’s good with kids and small dogs (I haven’t had him around large dogs yet). He is very outgoing and wants all the attention, very puppy like for a cat. If anyone is interested please let me know. I would be very open to taking him back if a potential home didn’t work out. Adoption fee is just precautionary. He will come with treats, toys, litter box and other supplies.

Story
This is Bones (the black cat) and Monty (the gray and white cat)! Bones is a five year old long haired cat and Monty is a six year old long haired cat, they are a sweet and playful bonded pair. I am looking to rehome them as I have been in nursing school and life has been very busy and it doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon, and I have a hard time making sure they get the attention they deserve. I would love for them to go to a home that can give them everything they need and then some. They are both neutered and up to date on vaccines and they are bonded pair so they are a package deal!

Story
17 yr old M black cat that I’ve had since he was born with a lot of spunk still in him. He has always been an inside only cat, declawed in front, microchipped and is neutered. He has had shots before, they just aren’t up to date. Has only ever had dry cat food and soft treats, which I will send with him. He has never been outside or around other animals so not sure how he will react. He is not the most friendly cat towards others at first, especially men and children, but will warm up with TLC and playing. He can be very loving and playful with the right person once accustomed to them. I will have a baby in my home soon and will have to find a new suitable home for him. The best candidate would be a single woman that does not have small children/grandchildren that visit. Will send litter box, toys, treats and carrier with him.

Story
I adopted Ralph from the LHS after fostering him for a week. He was picked up by Animal Control after a few injuries of unknown cause. His tail was necrotic and had to be amputated. I was told he was 10 years old but he seemed a lot younger. I took him to my vet who has a great deal of expert experience who aged him at 2 1/2 yrs old. I am elderly and need to find him a younger household. He is full of energy and loves to play. He’s very well litter box trained and hasn’t had any accidents. He can be a bit of a rascal which makes him a lot of fun. He loves to sit on lap for kitty pets and sleeps on my bed with me at night. He’s very protective of me and wants to be wherever I am most of the time. Being elderly I’m afraid he’ll outlive me and I would have no one to take care of him. Please consider welcoming Ralphy into your life.

Story
We think Kasper is about 5 years old and we’ve had him for 4 years. We had him with another cat and a dog and he did well with them, but think he will do very well as a solo pet able to get more attention from his owner! He is a little more skittish and takes some time to warm up, but once he does he loves to cuddle and be pet.
