Story
Hello all you hooman fans out there. It’s me, Conway Kitty I am a 12 year old, male, Siamese cat who is tired of being on the road and ready to settle into an indoor gig. I was found by a very nice lady in the middle of a field all by myself. I have no idea what an urbane sophisticate like myself was doing there, but that’s the name of that tune. Since I was already neutered when the lady found me, they assumed that I was in a home with hoomans at some point. I was there for 2 months getting my strength back, but I had to find myself another place since the cats who were already there didn’t seem to like me. (I think they were just jealous). No hard feelings, but I need a place with calm, laid back adults, older hooman children, and without other animals. As an older Siamese gentleman, I’m now into romantic ballads (about dinner time), and the magical world of warm blankets and chin scratches, because I really do love people. It’s been rough being on tour all this time, so I am ready for a nice indoor stage where I can cultivate new fans. But remember, I’m a solo headliner; no ensemble casts of other animals. At my age, I’m not looking for any wild adventures I just want a peaceful home, with a gigantic chair to lay in, and with hoomans to love me. In return, I’ll give you purrs, companionship, and a loving look that will lower your blood pressure by 10 to 20 points. So what do you say? I have had all my shots and I am ready to go. How about filling out an application, coming on down for a visit and see if you’d like to book me into your home and life. If you want someone refined by age, devilishly handsome and with classic country charm, I’m your kitty. I hope to see you soon. Love, Conway Kitty “ When a man loves cats, I am his friend and comrade, without further introduction.” Mark Twain

Story
Hello folks and a happy meow to you! My name is Fancy and I am a 1 year old female, domestic short hair cat. I was rescued by some nice people and brought to Golden Paws to find my forever home. I have been shy, timid and scared since my arrival at the shelter, although everyone here is very kind to me. I went through some rough times before that, and although I love being with other cats, I am still somewhat leary of Hoomans. For those of you who are not familiar with the domestic short hair, we are a mixture of many breeds. We are very popular worldwide and are generally adaptable, intelligent and relatively low maintenance. We come in many colors and pattern combinations. I happen to be a Calico, or Dilute Calico. We are generally friendly and very good with families, especially children. We also like other animals but, like all cats, we enjoy our independence too. I need a home with Hoomans who have the time and desire to show me the love, patience and understanding that will help me get over any fears from my past. Isn't that what everyone needs though? Anyone going to a new place, surrounded by new people, will need some time to adjust. I have a long life ahead of me and with Hoomans who will give me extra TLC and patience, I will be the best house cat and the best buddy ever. I have been spayed, I've had all my shots, and I'm ready to begin my new adventure. If you're the Hooman I've been looking for, the one who will lead the way on that adventure, and the one that will be my bestie forever, fill out an application and come on down for a visit with me. This is your chance to make a real difference in the life of a little fur person who could use that special person and home to complete her life .And in return, I'll make your life better too. Guaranteed! I look forward to seeing you soon. Love, Fancy “When a man loves cats, I am his friend and comrade without further introduction”. Mark Twain
