Story
I have three beautiful cats that I need to rehome. One male and two females. They are approximately 12 to 15 years old. They are all very healthy, sweet and get along well with each other, and my dog as well. I would prefer that they stay together if at all possible. Ferris is a male, medium to long haired gray cat. Rosie is a tuxedo cat, and Marilyn is I’m not sure. The reason I need to rehome them is because my wife recently passed away and I will be moving and downsizing soon.

Story
We have 1 young mama black Bombay cat with 4 babies that we would like to place at a farm barn and keep them together. They are outside cats that would require minimal care of food. They would earn their keep for you by keeping away snakes, spiders, mice and other critters. The photo is a pretty much how they will look. We would need catch again to deliver to you. If you have any questions please feel free to get in touch with me.

Story
gentle male cat needs home after being abandonedThis is a courtesy listing and not affiliated with Desoto Animal Rescue Society. Please contact anita4036@aol.com for more information. This precious little guy is in need of a loving home. He is the sweetest kitty, loves to chat and eat and gives the best head bumps. It hurt my heart to even think about how hard it has been for him to adjust to bring on his own after being abandoned in our neighborhood. Please if a rescue or a family could help. Like all fur babies who once had homes and were taken away and left behind, he deserves a family he can love and be loved on. We wish we could continue to keep him but we have 2 rescues of our own now. We are willing to have him fully vetted before going to his new loving home…October 19, 2025, 6:28 pm

Story
Risu is a small male tabby estimated to be around 2 or 3 years old as of Jan 2025 and weighs about 7 lbs. He has a small head and paws and doesn't seem as if he will be on the large side. He was rescued alone as a young stray and vetted. He does not appear to have been part of a community. He seems shy at first but comes around to being very friendly and like to play. He's passed the time consuming kitten stage and ready to be an excellent companion. He loves laying beside his person and getting pets as you read, work or watch TV. He is not vocal unless he is looking for you. He would definitely be great for someone who just wants one pet and just wants to enjoy hanging out with each other. He is a 'people' guy not so much other animals. He seems to be socialized to people. Please contact DARS to schedule a meet and greet or an overnight with Risu (RE SOO). You'll love him!  August 12, 2025, 9:37 am

Story
sweet little princess kitty with spice on the sideMercedes was previously adopted and the family loved her so much. BUT her adoptive dad had never had a cat and has turned out to be severely allergic to her. Her DOB is April 2025 so she is only 8 months old. She is fully vetted, litter trained on wood pellets, loving, playful and has no health issues. FIP and FIV free! She has only been indoors and will need a home inside only. She adjusted well coming back to her foster and has been around other cats and a large gentle collie. She is very sweet and soft as a bunny! Please contact DARS for more information and to set up a visit with Mercedes.January 4, 2026, 12:19 am

Story
Lucy is exactly the kind of cat you see on all the funny Youtube videos. She is full of energy, very playful, constantly zooming around the house, and always up to something mischievous. She is also extremely sweet (on her own terms, of course) and wants to be in the same room as everyone else. She is a Maine Coon mix with beautiful gray striped coat. She can get nervous easily as she tends to hide when anyone comes to our home. While she is great with other cats, she tends to be easily agitated with dogs and young children. I do believe, however, with time, she would be fine with dogs. We love Lucy and this decision has been a tough one but we have three young children. Our son is autistic and the attention and care he requires requires my complete and full devotion on top of caring for my other two kids. Since Lucy is easily overwhelmed and agitated by young children, and we live in a smaller home, we feel it's best for her to go to a home that is much more calm and reassuring.
