Story
Lorelei is a very sweet girl. Lorelei is very friendly to other cats and people, but my other cat would rather be alone. She's honestly confused and amused by my other cat being upset. She loves naps, running water, and belly rubs. I can't keep her as its stressing out my other cat. I'm happy to answer any questions!

Story
Nova is one of my 3 cats. She is 6 years old this summer and has always been a good cat. The last year she has become increasingly anti social and really needs to be in a one pet home. It started with new kitten in 2023. She hisses and wont interact if other cats are around still. Stays under my bed most of the time. She loves to be loved on and is very gental when no one or animal is around. She just wont come around and i want her to be happy. Needs one pet home.

Story
Millie would be the perfect companion for someone who values tranquility. She was found wondering near the river and we brought her home, nursed her to health and got her updated on shots, chipped, and spayed. She’s sweet and loves cuddles, but little kids aren’t her favorite. She loves a calm environment.

Story
Found lost pet and housed her during the holidays. Attempted to locate owner by passing out fliers in the neighborhood and found pet sites. No one has contacted me and I can't keep her myself due to apartment complex rules on 'no pets.' Looked into surrender options and found article on re-homing. Looking to get her rehomed with a good home. She's about 3-4 months old, playful, friendly, and litter trained. I call her Joy because she is a little ball of cuddles and joy, thankful I rescued her from the cold and unfriendly environment of the city. Can't detect a microchip and is probably too young to have been fixed. Can't detect a medical tattoo, so probably unfixed. Maybe too young to have gotten shots either.

Story
We had a stray cat leave her litter of four kittens in our flower bed 7 years ago. We never had cats before due to my husbands allergies and we just lost our dog. We found a home for one of the kittens through the vet but could not find a home for the other 3 cats. We recently had a child and he is also allergic to the cats. We used to have the time to give them all baths and cut their hair but with a newborn it’s been impossible. They’re extremely friendly and act more like dogs except for the girl kitty, Arya. She hides from guest until she warms up to you. They love to cuddle on the couch and just be loved on. The 3rd cat is Zeus who acts like a guard cat at the door. I hate to separate them and would love to find a home for all three. They’ve always been indoor and never have ran outside even when door is left open.
