Story
Pepper – Sweet 11-Year-Old Tuxedo Lap Cat Seeking a Loving Home: Pepper is a beautiful 11-year-old tuxedo cat looking for a loving indoor home. She is spayed, healthy, and has no known medical issues. Pepper is a friendly, affectionate lap cat who loves spending time with her people. She enjoys being brushed, playing with toys, and curling up for cuddles. She has a gentle personality and gets along well with other animals and children, making her a wonderful companion for a variety of households. She has been an indoor-only cat her entire life, is litter-trained, and is well-adjusted to living in a home environment. Pepper's vaccinations are not currently up to date. Pepper would thrive in a caring home where she can continue to receive the attention, affection, and companionship she enjoys. She has many loving years ahead of her and deserves a family that will cherish her. If you are interested in meeting Pepper or learning more about her, please contact me.

Story
*Meow* I`m in a foster home. Email camorahking@gmail.com to meet me!Hershey is a sweet, chatty girl who has made wonderful strides in building her confidence since leaving the shelter. She has an independent streak, but she also adores playtime — especially chasing laser pointers — and she melts for chin, neck, and butt scratches. Her purrs come quickly and generously.One of Hershey’s favorite pastimes is sitting by the window to watch birds, fully absorbed in her own little nature documentary. Every now and then, she’ll trot over to check on her humans, offering a few enthusiastic yaps as if giving a status update and requesting some pets.Hershey can be a bit shy at first, so she’ll thrive with a patient adopter who gives her the time and space to settle in at her own pace. With kindness and understanding, she blossoms more each day, revealing her affectionate, gentle personality.

Story
*Meow* I`m in a foster home! Email my foster caregiver to meet me:sjwalkercostumes@gmail.comHave you ever looked around your house and thought, `wow I really wish there was a weird old guy in here to listen to my day?` Then boy do I have a TREAT for you! Meet Jazz- the senior citizen that thinks he`s 30 again! Yes, Jazz is on the older side, but I don`t really think anyone has told him yet. He LOVES to play hard- think smacking down strings and murdering toy mice- and then pass out by a window for some sun-kissed snoozing. He`s also a great conversationalist! The man that truly engages in your work stories at the end of the day by going `wow` and `yeah` throughout. In all seriousness, Jazz is ready to live out his golden years with the perfect cuddle buddy who understands he may be moving a little slow, but his heart is always beating fast for the companion he adores. Best as a solo kitty as he`s a bit set in his ways!

Story
*Meow* I`m in a foster home! Email my foster caregiver to meet me: karenmalovrh@gmail.comToppy started off as a scaredy cat who was on medication for anxiety and wouldn`t come out from under my bed. Now, one month later, Toppy is the king of his domain! He`s silly, smart, playful, and of course adorable. He`s a very snuggly lap cat, always looking for a way to lay on me or next to me. He`s my little shadow, but he`s also independent enough to play on his own and he doesn`t get separation anxiety. Toppy loves to play. He gets the extreme-zoomies several times a day and it`s hilarious. One of his favorite games is fetch - he`ll bring me his favorite toy to throw, and he`ll bring it back over and over again. It`s great for the times I don`t want to get off the couch.Toppy is very well behaved. He has scratching posts and scratching mats, so he`s never scratched the furniture. He uses the litter box appropriately. He`s not a talker and is pretty chill when not in zoomie-mode. Toppy and my cat coexist well and occasionally play together. My cat will hiss when she`s done playing, and Toppy will back-off. One issue Toppy has is that he begs for human food. Not all food, but if it`s chicken, he will stop at nothing to get at it. But we`re working on that and he`s improving.So long as Toppy is safe, loved, and well-cared for, he`ll fall in love with anyone. He may take a bit to warm up to you, but once he does, he`ll look at you like you hung the moon and stars.
