Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Jack and Witchy are sweet kittens. They are still rather shy and take time to trust people. Once they are comfortable with you they love to be petted and have the loudest purrs. They love to play with toys of all kinds and really enjoy cat treats. They will need understanding and patience in their new environment while they adjust.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hello, I'm Zeke. I am what the internet would call a very smol boi. I'm 2 years old, and weigh only 3 lbs. I am looking for a quiet household where I can feel safe and relaxed. I can be quite shy with new people and surroundings (again, I am small-- everything is giant and scary), but I'm very sweet once I have time to get acquainted. I am quite talkative and will meow and purr to you all day! I enjoy cheek rubs, back scratches, and catnip stuffies. my foster says "Zeke is a very sweet, attention craving and skittish little boy. If it were up to him you would be petting him every hour of everyday. He loves to just be around and see what it is going on, but at the drop of a hat (literally) he will run away and hide. He also enjoys playing with string toys and is not too big on mice. He is very good at using the litterbox and is also not aggressive in the slightest. The only time he has bitten has been a loving bite when you stop petting him. All in all Zeke is a great cat and would thrive in a calm environment with loving parents."

Squeaks

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Squeaks is reserved but SUCH a sweet girl. It takes a few days for her to warm up to you, but once she does she is a huge fan of chin scratches and soft brushes. A loud purr and a head butt will let you know you’ve met a great cuddly companion; and if you’re especially lucky you’ll hear a squeak or two- just as her name suggests! She has been doing great with the litter box, and would be a great cat for someone who wants a chill and cuddly friend.

Good with kids, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

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

Hello, I'm Olive! I am a friendly and outgoing girl. I enjoy being pet and held, and spending some quality time with my people. I am quite the hunter, and would love for someone to toss catnip mice or dance wand toys around for me to pounce on! I have lived with other cats, as well as children, in my previous home-- so there's good potential for me to make new friends in my next home!

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hello, I'm Muriel! I'm a somewhat shy girl but with an incredibly sweet and loving disposition. I was brought to CMHS after spending a couple of hard years outside- having to not only fend for myself, but for multiple litters of kittens. I had to be cautious, and those survival habits don't disappear overnight. However, I warm up quickly to new friends! A few soft spoken words and some gentle strokes to my cheeks is all it takes for me to melt into your hands and ask for all of the love. I get excited to see my trusted friends when they visit, and will meow softly to them. I haven't been overly playful while at the shelter, but show interest in catnip stuffies.
