Story
We actually have 2 cats that need to be rehomed. These sweet cats are Leo and Bella. They are very affectionate and loving once they feel safe with you. Leo is a black American short hair and he is 8 years old and Bella is a Tabby and she is 6 years old. We love our kitties very much but we are no longer able to care for them so we are hoping to find a loving home for the both of them. They grew up together and are very close to each other so we prefer to rehome them together.

Story
A mom and six babies showed up at our house and the mother disappeared. We live on a highway and have lost 4 kittens to the roadway. The remaining two females were brought into our home. They have been spayed and have their rabies shot. I already have three inside cats and a yellow lab inside our home. These kittens are about 9 months old and have adjusted fairly well to indoor living. They are a bonded pair, and we would want them to go to the same household. They could be inside or barn cats. They have both adapted to indoor living but still are quite alert and quick to respond to movement. I'm assuming this is instinct from being in the wild as babies. Tammy has lighter markings on her face and is a bit smaller than Loretta. Tammy enjoys sitting with me on the couch in the evening and sharing popcorn. She is very vocal and will talk to you as long as you want to pet and talk to her. Loretta is a more serious kitten. She does enjoy playing and lots of pets. She too is very vocal.

A beautiful stray cat gave birth her 4 kittens and soon after they all found safety on our porch. Now they are ready to find loving homes of their own. You will find all 5 cats posted here. Malcolm is the fluffy big brother, Jack is the smaller but hungry boy, Ambrosia is a beautiful little girl, and Speck is the tiny runt who never lets her size hold her back.Speck and Jack are bonded and we would love to see them go to the same home if someone is willing.Jack is a young, playful little guy with a gentle soul. He may be a bit shy when you first meet him, but give him a little time and you'll discover a sweet, curious cat who loves being loved from his people. His favorite things in the world are food, followed by naps, with occasional string toy action.I have appointments for their shots and spay/neuter in the next week.

As the smallest of the litter, she's learned to be clever, curious, and resourceful. She loves exploring new places, investigating every corner, and finding creative ways to keep up with her bigger siblings. With her sweet personality and big spirit, Speck will bring plenty of fun and love to her forever home

Story
A wonderful stray cat (nicknamed Moma gave birth her 4 kittens and soon after they all found safety on our porch. Now they are ready to find loving homes of their own. You will find all 5 cats posted here. Malcolm is the fluffy big brother, Jack is the smaller but hungry boy, Ambrosia is a beautiful little girl, and Speck is the tiny runt who never lets her size hold her back.Ambrosia is a stunning little lady, and she seems to know it. While her siblings are busy causing mischief, she's often found perched above the action, watching everything unfold from her favorite spot like a queen on her throne. Graceful, observant, and full of charm, Ambrosia prefers to carefully assess a situation before joining in. When she does decide you're worthy of her attention, her personality and beautiful coat win hearts instantly.I have appointments for their shots and spay/neuter in the next week.
