Story
Honeybun has natural swirls on both sides of his coat & is a doll. Despite having been abandoned & left uncared for, not a lap cat but he will tolerate being handle from someone he adores. He loves face kisses & cheek squishes. Forehead rubs can instantly deactivate bunny kicks, meowing, deep thoughts etc. He does have smoke for other cats but is learning coping with Miss Rachel. Loved my 8 year old nephew!Living with Honeybun is like sharing your home with an unimpressed yapper. Especially, when you are late & didn't check in. He recently discovered toys and is now deeply invested in his carrot kicker, ladybug tunnel, catnip toys, and indoor zoomies. He believes in getting vitamin D and needs to sunbathe while considering his life. He likes CaseOh videos, supervising my makeup routine, & napping belly up & a tidy litter box.I am ALWAYS willing to take him back no questions asked. He wants his only family and person and he deserves the world. He is my foster! Fee waivable for records!

Story
Meet BB! BB is a beautiful mama cat who has done an incredible job raising her kittens, and now it’s finally her turn to find a home of her own. She has spent the last couple of months safely indoors caring for her babies and has adapted well to indoor life. She’s litter box trained, enjoys attention on her own terms, and especially loves being brushed—it seems to be one of her favorite ways to relax. BB would do best with someone who understands that she may need a little time to settle into a new environment. She can be a bit cautious at first, but once she feels safe, her sweet personality shines through. After raising a busy family, BB is ready for a calm, loving home where she can simply be someone’s companion. She will need to be spayed before or shortly after adoption, and she’ll thrive with a family committed to giving her the care and stability she deserves. If you’re looking to give a deserving mama cat her happily-ever-after, BB is waiting to meet you.

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
Kiddy is a four year old indoor/outdoor cat. She likes her independence just as much a coming home to a good petting session. We would love for her to go to a home that can give the attention she deserves. Does get along with our Boston terrier but not with others. Therefore, would prefer a home with no dogs.

Story
We found Bones at the beginning of this year during the cold. He was skin and bones (hence the name) so we decided to try to take him in and add him to our crew. He gained a lot of weight and is no longer boney lol. He is superrrr sweet and loves to play. We wound up deciding that we can’t keep him due to our OG cats not liking him and we feel bad. He would be the best as a single cat but does great with anyone he’s met. We don’t have the means right now to have another and haven’t been able to afford taking him to the vet again😪 He was too anemic for any shots when we found him but was negative of any diseases. We’d love for someone who can give him lots of attention to adopt this chubby cutie!
