Story
Hey, hate to do this but my building isn’t cat-friendly so I gotta find Pluto a new home. He’s about 7 months old, male, gray tabby, and honestly a really good cat. He’s super friendly and people-loving, follows you around, hangs out while you game, sleeps in your lap. Litter trained, eats normal, no health issues that I know of. Loves attention and will be right up in your business in the best way.

Story
Marlowe came into rescue as a stray along with her kittens and did what mothers do: gave them everything she had. When her body finally said enough, she let them go a little early. Once the kittens were weaned, Marlowe bounced back fast.   She has her own quiet personality. Gentle, sweet, and easy to be around. She likes being petted and will happily soak up your attention, then wander off to her favorite window spot to watch the birds. Not clingy. Just good company.   She's got a playful side, too. Wand toys, a catnip banana she takes very seriously, and the ability to nap like it's her full-time job.   Marlowe gets along well with other cats. She's been around the foster family's laid-back dog on occasion and wasn't fazed or interested in engaging.   Some cats fill a room. Marlowe fills the quiet spaces you didn't know felt empty. Like the driftwood she's named for, she has a way of finding exactly where she belongs. Consider making that place yours.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 24, 2026, 5:55 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Darlene was rescued from the Austin City Pound on 5/28/26 when no one came to claim her and she was due to be euthanized.  She is a very sweet-minded girl who is probably in the 9 month to 1 year old stage. She came to us very pregnant and unfortunately lost all of her babies.  When she delivered they were dead.  3 kittens remained inside her and we had to have an emergency spay because of infection.  She made it through the surgery and has totally recovered.   She likes people and does fine with the other cats.  Darlene is now spayed and current on shots. She has tested neg for feline leukemia/FIV.  We will adopt this girl as an indoor only cat and the adoption fee is $100.  A pet carrier is required at the time of adoption.  You must be 21 to adopt from MCHS.  Our address is 101 22 ST SE, Austin, MN.  We are located off of I-90 via exit 180B to 218 SOUTH.  We are just past our local airport.  Thanks.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 24, 2026, 5:52 pm
