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
Grandson was left behind when his family moved. Neighbors found him living outside and brought him to our rescue. When he was first brought in, he was very scared and seemed depressed but he began to thrive immediately upon being placed in a foster home. He is very cuddly and affectionate with his foster mom and gets along well with the other cats and dog in the home. Grandson is a big boy, weighing in at nearly 15 pounds.

Story
Meet Nena! After spending time in foster care raising her kittens (who are also up for adoption), this sweet mama is ready to be the one getting all the attention. Her foster dad shared that Nena was a little shy at first, but it didn’t take long for her personality to shine. Once she felt comfortable, she turned into an incredibly sweet and affectionate girl. Nena comes when she’s called, greets you when you walk into the room, and will happily trot over to say hello with the softest little chirps and meows — almost like she’s having a conversation with you. She’s quiet, gentle, and very loving. Nena adores pets and neck rubs, and she’ll give you the cutest head boops to politely ask for more attention. She has such a tender way about her that makes every interaction feel special. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate companion who will greet you with sweet little “words” and loving head nudges, Nena may be your perfect match. She’s done an amazing job raising her babies — now it’s her turn to be spoiled. 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?

Story
Meet Spice, a sweet senior kitty with a heart full of love! Spice is very friendly and affectionate, and while she adores attention, she’s also wonderfully independent—she enjoys doing her own thing during the day and curling up with her person when she’s ready for some snuggles. She can be a little nervous around new people at first, but she does warm up once she feels safe. Spice loves wet food, catnip, and chasing wand toys, making her playtime just as delightful as her cuddle time. She has lived with other cats and generally does well, though in her previous home some cats were a bit too bossy for her gentle nature. This lovely lady is looking for a calm, patient home where she can be loved at her own pace and continue to enjoy her favorite things in life. Spice is the perfect mix of independence and affection—she’s ready to bring a little extra love and calm companionship to the right family. 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.

Story
We looked outside our kitchen window one afternoon a couple of months ago to find this gorgeous little floof sunning herself on the hood of our car. We put out food for ferals (and get them fixed!) but we had never seen her before. Upon investigation, she was clearly feral but young enough that we could trap her and bring her inside. Madonna is what is known as a Spirit Cat: she was born outside and had no human contact in her critical first two months, leaving her wary of humans. She is not aggressive and is tolerant of human company, frequently climbing on the bed with me or approaching me curiously. However, she is skittish around people, does not like to be approached, and will probably never be a lap cat. She absolutely loves other cats and would be a great companion for a young playful cat or kitten who is in need of a friend. She would love to find a home with her friend Noel, also a Spirit Cat, and we would offer a discounted adoption fee to an adopter willing to take them together. However, Madonna would do well in any calm, patient home with a playful cat and without young children. She would be perfect for someone who already has an affectionate lap cat who is lonely and looking for another cat to play with. Madonna is so beautiful that simply admiring her from a distance makes us all feel honored! She is a long-haired beauty who has some Ragdoll features.     May 18, 2025, 8:58 pm

Story
Noel is what is known as a "Spirit Cat." This means that she was born outdoors and did not receive human contact in her first 2 crucial months of life, making her wary of people. She is playful, curious, and comfortable in a house but she may never be a lap cat. Seh like to jump up on her foster mom's bed while her foster mom reads before bed but will not yet let any people touch her willingly. Noel loves other cats and needs a cat companion in her home. She would love to be adopted with her friend Madonna, another Spirit Cat in her foster home, and we would offer a discount for adopting both together. However, Noel would do well in any home with a young, playful cat (she really loves her foster home's pet cat and cuddles with him whenever she has the chance). Noel would be great for a home with a cat who is lonely and in need of a friend, with adopters who are looking for a low-maintenance cat who needs very little from humans. Noel is exceptionally beautiful, with a very unique and pretty swirly pattern.    May 19, 2025, 5:24 pm
