Story
Meet Stormi 🖤 Stormi is a beautiful black cat with a gentle soul and a heart full of love. While she may be a little shy when meeting new people, patience and kindness go a long way with this sweet girl. She appreciates people who let her set the pace and give her time to feel comfortable. Once you've earned her trust, Stormi transforms into an affectionate cuddle bug who loves being petted and spending quality time with her favorite humans. Stormi has lived with a quiet child and enjoyed their companionship, often choosing to be nearby as they shared peaceful moments together. She would do best in a home that respects her sensitive nature and understands that friendships are worth the wait. She's also a wonderful companion to other pets. Stormi has lived with two cats and a Chihuahua, and she adored them all. She loved playing with her furry friends, curling up for naps together, and being part of the family. If you're looking for a loving, loyal companion who will reward your patience with endless affection, Stormi may be the perfect match. Give her a little time, a gentle touch, and a cozy place to call home, and she'll give you her whole heart in return. Ready to Adopt?

Story
Meet Batman! This superhero is ready to find his next home! He loves affection, and loves being pet by her people. He may take some time to warm up in the home, but once he is comfortable he would appreciate all the pets you are willing to give. He lived with other cats in the past, so with a slow introduction he would likely do well with other furry friends in the future. He loves playing with toys, whether it's ball toys or wand toys, he's not picky! He is a smart boy ready to find his way through his next adventure! If you are interested in meeting Batman, come down and visit us today! Ready To Adopt?

Story
Meet Simba! Simba is a mighty guy who is looking for a nice place where he can see where all the sun touches. Simba has lived successfully with other feline friends and would likely do well in a home with other cats again as long as there is a slow introduction to make sure everybody is as comfortable as possible. Simba likes to spend his days wandering the house and lounging in all the comfy places your home has to offer. Simba's nights are when he really likes to come out and party! Simba enjoys running around playing with his feline siblings, rolling around all sorts of ball cat toys, and climbing up on the cat tree. Simba is looking for a home that is going to give him the space he needs but also be there when he is seeking out his moments of affection. Simba is looking forward to meeting you and, hopefully, coming home soon. Ready to Adopt?

As always before adoption, all cats are spay/neutered, tested for FeLV/FIV, given distemper and rabies vaccines if old enough, flea and dewormer treatments if necessary.
