Story
We adopted Greg from a shelter in Auburn when he was 7 months old. We’ve had him for over 3 years now. He’s a kind, playful, and cuddly cat. He can be really shy in new places and around new people, once he gets to know you, he’s friendly and loves cuddles. Also, LOVES food. I’ve never seen a cat eat food like he does. Portion control is a must unless you want a fat cat. One time he broke into his automatic feeder and ate 2 weeks of food in a morning. It was on Thanksgiving too lol…We’d be looking for someone who would be intentional about giving him attention, and someone who would really love having him around.

Story
Meet Little Lady — A Sweetheart Who Loves the Quiet Life!Little Lady is a shy but sweet kitty who is looking for a super quiet home where she can relax and take her time getting comfortable. New surroundings and new people can be a little overwhelming for her, so she will need extra patience and time to adjust to her new family. Once she feels safe and settled, her gentle personality can begin to shine. Little Lady would love a home filled with comfy beds, soft blankets, and plenty of yummy wet food to help her feel cozy and spoiled. She may do okay with a calm, friendly kitty after a slow and thoughtful introduction. Most of all, she needs a family who will let her set the pace and give her the time she needs to build confidence. With patience, peace, and lots of love, Little Lady is ready to show just how special she is.
