Story
Pishi is a sweet, playful, and affectionate cat who is approximately 2½ years old. She can be a little shy at first, but once she feels comfortable, she becomes very attached to her person. I call her my little shadow because she follows me everywhere around the house and always wants to be nearby. She loves sitting on my lap, curling up next to me, getting head and neck scratches, playing with her toys, and climbing her cat tree. I would love for Pishi to go to a patient, loving indoor home where she can feel safe, receive plenty of attention and playtime, and form a close bond with her new person. She may take a little time to warm up, but once she does, she is an incredibly sweet, loyal, affectionate, and entertaining companion.

Story
We adopted Whiskey as a kitten from the shelter in June 2024. She was sweet and cuddly with 3 family members; and tolerated our dog and other cat until my mom had to move in due to health issues. She developed aggressive and territorial behavior about 10 mos ago when my elderly mom moved in with us. She started biting, scratching and peeing. She fights with our other cat now, which she didn’t used to do. We tried anxiety meds, a plug-in mood diffuser that our vet recommended which only helped a little. We think she is struggling with the change in our home and would do really well again in a home with less people and less pets.

Story
Meet Russ – Your Future Cuddle Buddy! 🐾❤️ Russ is a gentle, loving, and curious cat who would make a wonderful addition to a family, especially one with children. He is incredibly patient with little ones and is very understanding when spoken to. He loves his morning cuddles and enjoys being close to the people he trusts. Russ has a few simple preferences: he loves having access to his food and prefers an open litter box rather than a covered one. While he may greet you outside out of curiosity, Russ is an indoor cat who prefers the comfort and safety of home. If the door is open, he happily comes right back inside. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate companion who loves cuddles, is gentle with kids, and has a curious little personality, Russ might be the perfect addition to your family. He has so much love to give and is ready to find his forever home!

Story
Hilo is a super sweet cat that lives to play and loves belly rubs! He is very affectionate and very athletic, like a loving ninja! Unfortunately, he is also very sensitive and became very stressed out when I got a new job and was away from the house more often, which led to him having Feline Idiopathic Cystitis (stress-induced bladder inflammation). After a stay in the hospital, he now needs to be in a special diet and medications. More than anything, we have to go to work, sk we can't provide the home that Hilo needs (someone who works from home). We love him very much are very sad to have him leave our family, but we know that he will be less stressed and happier in a home where can hang out with his human on weekdays.

Story
I’m Raven! I’m about 8/8.5 years old. My mom found me in 2018 when I was a few months old. I really liked my owner but fell in love with her aunt. My aunt is retired so she loves to feed me a lot, over the last few years I’ve gained a few pounds. I’m still very playful don’t let my age fool you. My favorite toys are shoestrings and fuzzy worms on a string. I love to cuddle and sit on your lap for hours once I warm up to you. I don’t really do kids under 10. I really get along with emotional or lonely people. My fur is very soft you’ll love to come home and pet me for hours. I love a good chin rub. I could possibly get along with another cat but please no more than one other cat. I'm scared of some men and stay away from dogs. My mom is moving out of the country, and my aunt is getting too old and moving to a place she cannot take me. Please contact my owner to hear more!
