Story
Meet Ekko! Ekko is a goofy, cheeky boy with a playful personality that`s just waiting to shine. He loves to be silly, has a curious streak, and wants to play and connect with his people but he`s also a cat who needs a little extra time to feel safe. Since arriving at the shelter, all the changes have been overwhelming for Ekko. The sweet, affectionate cat we were told about is still hiding behind some understandable stress, so he`s been a bit particular about when he wants attention. Some days he`s happy to interact, and other days he`d rather have his space. He`s simply looking for someone who will let him adjust at his own pace. Ekko is searching for a patient adopter who understands feline body language and will respect his boundaries as he settles into his new home. He may not be the kind of cat who`s ready to curl up in your lap on day one, but that doesn`t mean he doesn`t have lots of love to give. With time, consistency, and understanding, his true personality will continue to blossom. Ekko would do best as the only pet in the home, where he can have all the attention to himself. He does, however, have a good history with children who can respect his space and understand when he needs a break. If you`re looking for a cat who`s equal parts quirky, playful, and rewarding to earn the trust of, Ekko could be your perfect match. Give this sweet boy the patience he deserves, and you`ll get to watch him grow into the wonderful companion we know he can be.

Story
Meet Remi! Remi firmly believes the world revolves around him... and honestly, he makes a pretty convincing argument. This sweet, cheeky boy is always on the move, ready to explore every corner of the room before racing back to make sure you`re paying attention to him. If you happen to stop petting him for a moment, don`t worry Remi will politely (or not so politely!) remind you that your hands have an important job to do. Expect little paws reaching out to grab your arm, a cat climbing into your lap (or onto your shoulders if given the chance), and a whole lot of affectionate interruptions throughout your day. When he`s not busy investigating his surroundings or inventing his next adventure, Remi is all about cuddles. He`s the kind of cat who wants to be wherever you are, soaking up affection and making sure he`s included in everything. Life is simply more fun when Remi is the star of the show. If your home could use a little more laughter, a lot more love, and a furry supervisor who insists on being involved in absolutely everything, then Remi is ready to accept his role as the ruler of your heart. His kingdom is just missing one thing... you.
