Story
Misha is a handsome boy who’s been through a lot. After losing his beloved owner, he found himself suddenly in a shelter—and that kind of heartbreak takes time to heal. Because of this, Misha can be a little intimidating at first. When he’s scared, he’s a fight boy, not a flight boy, and he needs someone who understands that fear comes from loss, not meanness. The quickest way into Misha’s good graces? Patience, grilled chicken, and freeze-dried minnows. Like many boys, the way to his heart is absolutely through his stomach. Once Misha feels safe, his true personality shines. He turns into the sweetest, most laid-back guy—full of adorable chirps to get your attention, always ready for good neck scratches, and happy to just hang out with his person. He’s not a rush-in kind of cat, but if you give him time, consistency, and kindness, he will reward you with deep trust and quiet companionship. Misha is looking for a calm, understanding home where he can finally feel secure again—and where his next chapter is filled with love, snacks, and patience.

Story
Prim is a little timid and jumpy, but extremely sweet and so lovable. She'd love to find an owner who can spend time making her feel safe and comfortable in a forever home. She came into CMHS with her brother, Proper, but has since spent most of her time solo. Prim doesn't always want to be held or handled, but she will also cuddle up and ask for belly rubs when she's in the mood! She enjoys having a safe, secluded space in her foster home's basement, but has slowly begun coming out to explore more and more. Prim keeps her distance, but is totally fine around our other adult cats. She's super well-behaved and is truly a special little girl!
