Story
Meet Sassie, a beautiful declawed cat with a heart as big as her personality. This independent lady values her space, but once she warms up to you, her loyalty is unwavering. Sassie is a bit shy at first, but don't let that fool you. Underneath that reserved exterior is a feline who is full of love and affection, for the right person. Regretfully her declawing has caused trauma for Sassie and she feels vulnerable in hectic situations. Sassy would thrive in an home as an only pet where she can be the queen of her castle. She’s extra food motivated and quickly bonds over an Churu! Adopt Sassie to bring home an extra special feline worthy of the patience she will need. She just needs love and a forever home where she can become comfortable and live her life to the fullest with a family that loves her unconditionally!

TATUM and TOBIAS are two beautiful Turkish Van kitties who started out very shy, nervous kitties pulled from a FERAL colony TNR location. They aren't fans of a busy environment so they will take TIME to open up in a new home. They would love a calm, quiet adult home in which to relax and blossom. Sharing is Caring of these two sweet brothers... Help find their pot of gold. 💜 WOW cats are fully vetted to age with a lifetime microchip.

Meet VALENTINO - he is a sweet, but shy boy, who came to us after he was found dangling upside down caught up in a fence. VAENTINO is a little reserved with his love and slower to warm up but it's worth the wait! His BEST Friend is fellow tripod buddy, ARISTOTLE. This poor muffin was luckily picked up by a Good Samaritan in the storm after escaping some kind of attack and sadly had to lose his leg. He is a CUDDLE BUG who craves human attention. He's so incredibly sweet and loving. if you are looking for two handsome boys to fill your heart with love they would LOVE a home TOGETHER.
