Story
Hi, I'm Brutus of Brush and Ash. I am a Beautiful 5 year old Brown and Black with Black stripes DSH (so is Ash his brother) who is being surrendered because his owner has to return to Bolivia and cannot take them as she is fearful of the 12K altitude for them and she wants them to have a great home. Brutus was adopted from HRA Foster care with the name of Brutus given to him by the foster (his original name was Nroon). Brutus is described as a cat who makes his presence known, he wants to participate in everything you do. He doesn't like being locked outside a room, as he sits and ME-OWs as long as the door is closed. He likes to play hard with his brother. Brutus like his brother is not necessarily a lap nor being picked up. But he does like to be close to you as you sit on a chair or couch. Plus he will follow you from room to room just to be with you. He affectionate and loves pets, is very curious and likes to interact with people. In addition to playing with his brother he loves hanging toys and will jump to catch them, and he can jump really high (it sometimes scared the owner)! He, like his brother, will try and catch treats if you toss them to him! He will sit next to you but is not fond of laps or of being picked up and snuggled. Brutus and Ash do not like other cats. He is very disciplined in the use of a litter box and does like a scratching post. PS The best was to tell them apart is that Brutus is bigger than Ash.

Story
Hi! I'm Sully. I'm a pretty big kitten for my age, so I hope you're ready for me to grow into a big boy! Even though I'm big for my age, I'm still small and adorable right now, and I love sitting on laps for some snuggles. I actually have a very specific routine that you'll probably get to know - first some snuggles with my humans, then making biscuits in my cat bed, and rotating between those two options until I fall asleep. I love to play with anything and everything, and I especially like to wrestle with my sister, Boo, so I'd like it if we could go home together!

Story
Leo is a handsome, affectionate nine year old male senior cat with plenty of love left to give. He has been with his owner since kitten hood, but a demanding work schedule leaves little time for the companionship and attention Leo deserves. His owner is now hoping to find him a loving new home where he can enjoy more quality time with his people. Leo is devoted and people-oriented, happiest when he can stay close to his humans - whether they are relaxing, moving around the house, or settling in for the night. He is also curious and enjoys exploring: although easy to handle, he may wiggle down to investigate whatever has caught his eye! Leo has lived successfully with other cats and a dog.This sweet, seasoned gentleman is ready for a fresh start with someone who can offer him time, companionship, and affection. In return, Leo will be a loyal, loving presence in your daily life. Please visit our website www.awlmc.org to learn more about this amazing cat and to see other available cats.

Story
Hi there, I'm Lucky-sometimes. Other times my luck seems to run out, but I like my name and I'm hoping to get lucky again soon. My first family gave me my name because they felt lucky after buying their dream house and then finding a cute little gray tabby girl kitten (me) hiding under the deck! Unfortunately the three little kids in that house were just too loud and scary, so I spent a lot of time hiding from them. No fun for anybody! My second family included a cat that I just could not get along with, so I came back to AWLMC. I was adopted by an older lady and life was fantastic! We truly loved each other. We watched TV from her couch and I slept on her bed at night. Unfortunately, she fell and broke her hip and could no longer care for me. I am a 5 year old gray and black tabby girl and I am still as cute as ever - and affectionate and playful and an all-round great cat. I really love hanging out with adult humans - but not kids or other cats. I will rub against your legs and when you sit down, I will be right there with you. Sometimes, I climb onto your chest for a petting and snuggle session. You can pick me up for a bit but I prefer to move around on my own. I will play with toys like the wand toy, anything with catnip, electronic toys, and I love scratching posts, especially horizontal cardboard ones. My paws are crossed, and I am hoping to find my true furrever home. Do you feel lucky? Let's roll the dice and see if we have a winning combination!
