Story
Hi All. It comes with a heavy heart that we are needing to rehome our queen kitty Nugget. Nugget is a short hair 12-14 years old, 10lb, neutered, fully vaccinated, calico munchkin cat (short body). She has been with us since we were 15 but sadly my sister and I are moving and cannot take her with us. She enjoys sleeping, laying in the sun, cuddles, burrowing under blankets, playing sometimes, and will purr right when you look at her. She comes with everything you would need including an automatic feeder, electric water fountain with filters, litter box and litter mat, 2 beds, treats, 2 bags of food, all grooming supplies, and lots of toys. She would ideally do best by her self or with another cat. She has lived with other cats in the past but for the last 2 years has been on her own. We love her dearly and it breaks our hearts to have to part with her however we know that she will make a perfect companion for someone new.

Story
Hi! I’m Tito! 🐾 I was found roaming around College Town in Mankato, MN, and a kind human took me in while I search for my forever home. Nobody knows exactly how old I am, but I do know that I’m a cuddly, talkative, goofy, and incredibly sweet boy! I love being close to my human, getting lots of pets, and purring. ❤️ I’m looking for someone with a consistent schedule who can give me the love, attention, and patience I deserve. I do have some quirks—I can be picky about where I go potty and have shown some litter box aversion. I use my litter box sometimes, but I’m still working on consistency. I recently saw the vet and I’m taking medication to help with my anxiety, along with a short-term antibiotic. I may need a little extra patience while I adjust, but I promise I’ll give you plenty of cuddles, goofy moments, and PURRS in return! 🥰 My current human is also willing to send my feeder, toys, and beds with me. Could you be my forever person? 🐱❤️

Story
Hello there!My name is Ollie and I'm 5 years old. I was on the streets of Huston, Texas when I was found by rescuers and sent to Minnesota and have called it home since. I was neutered after being found so that's why my ear is clipped.I love people! Anybody that walks in the door immediately becomes my favorite person. I do well with being alone but expect me to be at the front door asking for pets when you get home. I have plenty of energy to play (bent paper clips and springs are my favorite), but I like snuggling on laps and curling next to people just as much.I'm always the star of the show and I can't get enough of it, so I prefer to be the only cat in the house. I've never been around any dogs or other animals though, so who knows, maybe I'll like having an animal buddy.I have some tummy issues, so I need a pill once a day and special food, other than that, I'm perfectly healthy!Thank you for taking the time to learn about me new best friend. I can't wait to meet you!

Story
Meet Phantom! This sweet and talkative girl has plenty to say and would love a patient, cat savvy adopter who can appreciate her independent personality. Phantom is currently very stressed in the shelter environment, and we believe she would benefit greatly from a calm, predictable home where she can decompress and settle in at her own pace. Phantom may prefer being the only cat in the home. She previously experienced a UTI while living around other cats, so a single cat household may be the best fit for her comfort and well being. She also occasionally overgrooms herself, which may be related to stress, and can sometimes experience hairballs or vomiting episodes. We are hopeful that these behaviors will be minimal once she is able to relax in a loving home environment. While Phantom enjoys affection and is a very sweet girl, she also values her independence and likes to do things on her own terms. With a patient and understanding adopter who can give her the time and space she needs, Phantom has the potential to truly shine outside of the shelter.

Story
Hi there! I'm Squirmy, a 5-month-old brown tabby boy with the sweetest little white spot right on my nose. I'm already neutered and ready for my forever home, where I can grow into my full personality at my own pace. I'm a gentle, kind soul who might take a little time to warm up to new people, but once I do, you'll have a loyal companion for life. Come visit me and let's see if we're a purrfect match!
