Story
Amber is a very loving 8 month old boy cat. I’ve taken to calling him Slimey after Oscar the Grouch’s pet on Sesame Street because I think that’s cute >:~). He wants to cuddle, play, and sleep curled up with his person. I do not have time in my schedule to give him the affection that he needs, but he would be perfect for somebody who is looking for a constant companion! A home with other cats would be great for him as well - he is a little love bug with a lot of energy and would probably really appreciate having other cats to cuddle and play with.

Story
Looking for a forever home for Bowie 💔🐱 This is a hard decision made with love. My 5-year-old gray tabby, Bowie, is a sweet, vocal, and very affectionate boy who deserves a calmer home than I can currently provide. He’s 5 years old and very vocal and affectionate as well. He loves making biscuits at bedtime. He truly loves and bonds with his person and enjoys a peaceful household/environment. Unfortunately with a couple of roommates and another cat and dog he is feeling stressed and unhappy. This is not a decision taken lightly. My priority is finding Bowie a loving, permanent home where he can feel safe and content. Please reach out if you think you could be the right fit or would like to learn more about him.

Story
Bonded pair of adult neutered males, Phantom and Midnight. SW Minneapolis. Roughly 7 years old. Good with kids and humans (kind of attention hogs), not sure how they'd do with other pets, although they are generally chill bois. They belonged to a human who used to live with me and now doesn't, and who chose to leave them here and get a new cat instead. I'm allergic and just not able to give them the attention they need, and it's not fair to them. They are healthy and up to date on shots. I will ask for a donation to Alley Cat Allies (they're former strays) as part of the adoption. I don't need the money but they're not "free" bc I've heard too many horror stories. I'm probably going to want to see where they'd be living. They may not be my cats, but I care about them and want a good place for them.

Hi my name his Helena, and I am a 1 year old stray cat looking for a forever home! I was spayed and given all my required vaccines/shots recently so I am good to go. About me: I am not the most cuddly cat you’ll ever meet; I appreciate my space. But I like a good head rub and forehead kisses on my terms. I’m very social if there’s any mention of food! I’m also technically a teenager, so when I warm up I definitely like to play with small toys and get the zoomies! I havent done very well in my current owners home as its too small for separated introductions and I dont like the other cat who lives here and doesnt respect personal boundaries. I would do better in a household where Im the only cat and there aren’t little children since Im very particular on boundaries. I can teach them to you, I just need to be respected! Contact my owner if you are interested in adopting me!

Story
Meowlyn Monroe and Roo Bug were my best friend's cats. They were her babies. She died at the end of 2025. The hope was her girls would live with me, get along with my resident cat, and we could all heal together. Unfortunately, Roo Bug and my resident are not compatible. I am looking for a new home where Roo Bug and Meowlyn Monroe can spend the rest of their lives spoiled, sleeping with their human, and getting all the delicious treats. Meowlyn Monroe is a calico who has a lot of sass! She loves to hear herself talk and has no qualms about sharing her opinion. She enjoys feather toys and bird watching in the window. When she needs attention, she will body slam you. It's pretty adorable. Roo Bug is a sweet grey girl who loves belly rubs! Once she trusts you, she will flop over to ask for belly rubs and chirp happily. She enjoys feather toys and laser pointers, just not as much as her sister. She will always find a lap to make biscuits and fall asleep on. They just want love.
