Story
Loki is a sweet cat that is quiet and gentle. We’ve had her for fourteen years. She loves being near you and will seek out attention and love, but isn’t one for being picked up or held. She doesn’t get along with dogs, nor cats and will likely hide or be very submissive. We don’t have children, but we suspect she’ll be extremely cautious and afraid around them. She’s developed some behavioral issues recently which is why we’re trying to find her a better home than ours. Our other cat has become a bit of a bully and we think Loki has been stressed out. She likely needs a home where she can be on her own without the pressures of other animals.

Story
She is 4 years old, very healthy and active. She is always curious about where you are and what you're doing but still wants to be left alone. She is social and gets along with strangers or acquaintances. She shows affection in her own way: she loves to sleep next to your feet at night and comes to you when you call her name. She isnt always a lap cat but if she is fed and the house is cold, she will definitely use a portion of your blanket. She is okay with kids but usually tries to avoid them. She has never scratched my toddler. She is a huge foodie and will often ask you for a bite of whatever you're eating.

Story
She is a sweet loving cat, original rescued from a family member who passed I can no longer care for her due to the fact I’m moving. She prefers to be the only cat in the household. She is roughly 4-5 her actual age is unknown. She loves to cuddle and be let under the blanket at night. She’s okay being left at home while working, she loves her own space and will come to you when she wants extra attention.

Story
Shadow is 17 and acts half his age. We inherited him when my mother passed last fall. He is very loving and needs a lot of attention. The best situation would be someone who is home most of the time. He has a thyroid condition and takes a pill a day (willingly, stuffed inside a treat!) He has never been around other animals and I don't know how he would be around small children. He mostly ignored the great grandchildren when they visited my mother. He is very giving and affectionate one-on-one. Our spring/summer/fall travel back and forth to NH is the reason to find him another home. We don't think bringing him back and forth would be a good idea.
