Story
Sneezy is a sweet, playful little girl who is a bit shy. She is bonded with her sister, Happy, and they must be adopted together. Sneezy is a bit shy and will take some time to warm up. She needs a patient adopter and a calm home that will respect her quieter demeanor and allow her to feel safe. Once she warms up to you, she is very affectionate and playful. Her foster mom writes, " It will take some time for them to warm up to you but when they do they will love you. They love running around and playing and they love to cuddle with you on the bed. Laying with me and purrrring is their favorite thing 🩷🩷" The total adoption fee for Happy and Sneezy together is $500.

Story
Ava is beautiful MHD who is ready for her forever home! She is very sweet great with other cats, and is affectionate. She would be great in a quieter home setting not a lot of high energy around the house. She loves pets and snuggles and of course being pampered with treats She was found abandoned with another cat , people moved and left the cats behind, really sad but we see that a lot in rescue. We don't want this to happen again she deserves this best and deserves a permanent forever home. Please if you are interested in adopting Ava please reach out to our Rescue

Story
Meet Leeko! Leeko came in to us as a stray so we do not have much information on how she does in a home. This young female cat came to us as a stray, so we don’t know much about her history in a home. Neighbors who cared for her shared that she can be a little shy at first, but once she’s comfortable she does well with people, including children. She enjoys playing with wand toys and loves interactive playtime. She’s also not a picky eater—while she was outside, she happily accepted all the food her neighbors offered her. With a little patience while she settles in, this sweet girl has the potential to become a wonderful companion. Change is hard for this cat. This cat will be very nervous when you first bring them home. You will need to set up a room with a litter box, food, and water. It will take days for this cat to become comfortable and confident in the new home. This cat will be going home with a behavior plan that will need to be followed in order for everyone to transition successfully. Ready to Adopt? You have two options: #1- VISIT IN PERSON Come during our open adoption hours: Tuesday - Saturday,12:30 - 3:00pm. You’ll be able to meet available cats in the shelter.

Story
Mittens came to us from a home with multiple cats. She is a sweet girl but very nervous here at the shelter. She has been used to being an indoor/outdoor cat but may also do well as an indoor only cat. She will need a patient family to help her acclimate to her new home. Change is hard for this cat. This cat will be very nervous when you first bring them home. You will need to set up a room with a litter box, food, and water. It will take days for this cat to become comfortable and confident in the new home. This cat will be going home with a behavior plan that will need to be followed in order for everyone to transition successfully. This cat has specific litterbox needs. When you bring this cat home they will need to be set up in a room by themselves. This cat will go home with a behavior plan that you will need to follow in order for them to use the litterbox reliably. Ready to Adopt?

Story
Cosmo is a handsome boy who was originally found as a stray but has adjusted well to living in a home. He came in with other cats and has done well around them, so he may do well with feline friends in his new home with a slow introduction. Cosmo can be a little shy at first, but once he feels comfortable his sweet personality really shines. He loves attention and can’t get enough pets, and he’s happy to soak up all the cuddles you’re willing to give. With a little patience while he settles in, Cosmo will make a loving and affectionate companion. This cat has specific litterbox needs. When you bring this cat home they will need to be set up in a room by themselves. This cat will go home with a behavior plan that you will need to follow in order for them to use the litterbox reliably. Ready to Adopt?
