Story
Mochi is three years old and super sweet. She is my daughter’s cat, but my daughter is allergic to her and was unable to take her when she moved out. My daughter will be moving back in this summer so we need to rehome Mochi. Mochi is a very sweet cat. Her only fault is that if there is something musty she will mark it. Usually stuff the kids leave on the floor like towels. She is on prescription food due to crystals in her urine. She is currently on a wellness plan at Petvet365 and is up to date on all shots and visits. She loves to play fetch and has adopted other dog like traits due to growing up around dogs. (She will need time to warm up to other dogs.) She likes to snuggle and be around you if you are working. She loves to catch bugs and play with them. She’s very helpful in the summer months when flys get inside. She will catch them and play with them. We want her to go to a very loving home. She is the sweetest cat.

Story
Nova is a sweet, lovable boy in need of a permanent home! He came to our door as a little kitten. and he has been the sweetest addition to our family! We have two other cats that he plays and snuggles with, but most of the time he prefers to be by himself. He loves to play and needs enrichment, and he REALLY prefers his outdoor time. We used to have an enclosed porch he spent all his time on, but unfortunately due to my health we had to move and he's been stuck indoors which he really does not seem to like. Due to my chronic conditions we just don't have the time or ability to care for 3 cats now, and we want Nova to go to a home where he will get the love, attention, and freedom he deserves. Ideal candidate would have a "catio" or someplace he can sunbathe. He's never been an indoor/outdoor cat but if you have experience transitioning a cat to be able to go on walks or go outside in a safe monitored area, we think he'd LOVE that. Please reach out with any questions!

Story
Meet Stevie, a beautiful, gentle, and affectionate four-year-old female looking for a peaceful, loving home. She’s vaccinated and lives indoors, fully litter-box trained, quiet, and well-mannered. Stevie is wonderful with both adults and kids, and she enjoys lounging in sunny spots, exploring cozy corners, and quietly keeping you company. It breaks our hearts to rehome her, because Stevie truly is a fantastic cat. Unfortunately, our new dog has been persistently disruptive to her peace and routine. Despite our best efforts, we haven’t been able to create a consistently comfortable environment for her. We’re looking for a calm, dog-free home where Stevie can thrive as the cherished house cat she is, one where she’ll enjoy daily affection, safety, and connection with her people.

Story
Chewbacca (Chewy) was first adopted at 7 years old weighing 17lbs in Clearwater FL. We fell in love with him due to his metal cage denting and creaking at Petsmart under his weight. He is turning 12 this year and weighs 15 lbs. We are, unfortunately, unable to care for him financially anymore. He is in need of a dental cleaning and some teeth extractions. He is a wonderful cat. He is playful with other cats and friendly to babies and toddlers. Great cat to introduce to kids. He loves to sleep, eat and cuddle. He will always let you know if you have not fed him in time. He loves treats and tuna treats. We hope to have him go to a wonderful home that can care for him the way he should be. Even with his “old” age he has a youthful spirit and I believe he has many fun years ahead of him.
