Story
Meet Elsa, a shy but deeply affectionate 14-year-old brown tabby who is searching for a peaceful furever home. While she may be reserved with new people at first, Elsa warms up beautifully once she feels safe. With the right person, she has the potential to become a true cuddler and loyal companion. Elsa has lived her whole life with her brother, Smokey Joe, and would love to be adopted alongside him if possible, but understands if that can't happen. Both cats have recently lost their human parents and are adjusting, so a calm, quiet space would help. Link to Smokey Joe's profile - https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/46501121-ponchatoula-louisiana-cat She is lonely and ready for a stable home filled with gentle attention. Elsa has full vet records, is fully up-to-date on vaccinations as of September 2025, and has no known medical issues. If you're looking for a sweet, soft-spirited cat, Elsa may be the perfect match for you. She's ready for a safe place, and a person, to call her own.

Story
Meet Smokey Joe, a 10-year-old black domestic shorthair who is looking for a calm, loving furever home. He's a sweet, gentle boy who tends to hide under the bed when things feel overwhelming. Although he has lived peacefully with small dogs, other cats, and a noisy bird, Smokey Joe truly thrives in a quiet, low-stress environment. Smokey Joe's sister, Elsa - a 14-year-old tabby - would love to be adopted with him, but they understand if that isn't possible. Both cats have lived in the same home since they were kittens and recently experienced the loss of their human parents, so they've been shy and a bit traumatized and are longing for consistent companionship. Elsa's Profile - https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/46501206-ponchatoula-louisiana-cat They both have complete vet records, fully vaccinated as of September 2025, and no known medical issues. If you can offer Smokey Joe a peaceful home where he can feel safe and loved again, please reach out - he's ready to belong to someone new.

Story
Meet Heart ❤️ I purchased Heart in April when she was just 2 months old, and she has truly become part of our family. She has been incredibly gentle, loving, and patient—especially with my 3-year-old. She’s a sweet cat with a calm personality and adjusts well to people and routines. As much as it hurts, due to my work schedule and being pregnant again, I can’t give her the time and attention she deserves. I’m looking for a reliable, loving home where she will be cared for properly. What I’m looking for in her new home: • Someone who has time to give her affection, play, and attention • A gentle environment—she does great with kids who are kind and respectful • Indoor-only home preferred, to keep her safe • A family or individual who will keep up with her vet care, feeding schedule, and routine • A stable home where she’ll be treated as a family member, not just a pet • Ideally someone who has experience with cats or is willing to learn and be patient

Story
We have several cats needing outside homes where they can roam, cat catch mice, and be an outside pet. Most are friendly and will come up for food and can be pet. We trap and remove them from parking lots where they are trying to survive, but need a place to call home and feed daily.April 21, 2025, 11:16 pm

Story
Randon is 7 years old. His markings are stunning. He loves to romp and play with other cats. He is laid back and mild-mannered. He can be shy at first but warms up fast. He would make a great addition to someone's family.    He has been neutered, combo tested for feline leukemia/feline aids, up to date on vaccinations, wormed, and flea treated.
