Story
Busquets is a lap cat, who is shy but very loving, and playful. He will sleep next to you in bed, but also like cozying up on the cat tree. He responds well to people who love him and pet him gently. He is intimidated by loud noises and loud movements in the beginning. He also loves his scratching posts. Before I adopted him, he was found a stray or abandoned. He had a limp and other wounds that have healed. He still kind of has a limp in his right front paw when walking. I checked at the vet and the doctor did not detect any signs of fractures. At first, he was so playful that I looked for a second cat who can play on his level. I tried the cat string toys, but he gets a little sad or scared of them so those sessions usually end with me letting him catch the toy and him taking them away as a successful hunt. Truly, he is a best friend who will vocally greet you when you enter into his room.

Story
Rai (pronounced Ray and goes by Raimond when he's in trouble) was named after my late grandfather. I found him as a kitten during the summer of 2021. He is the sweetest cat EVER. I know everyone says that but Rai truly is the sweetest soul I've ever met. Most cats give the death grip after a little belly rub but Rai LOVES his belly rubs. He will let you rub his belly foreverrrrr. He grabs your arm gently with his paw to ask for a head rub then turns around for a quick butt scratch. He doesn't like hard treats that much but he loves the little churro squeeze pouches. He has been trained to sit before being served dinner and he is polite and let's his sister, Luna (also up for adoption pet ID# 7738479), be served first. Rai is tolerant of nail trims and bath time if you give him 5-10 minutes of "cat music" before hand. He can be a little jumpy but he is very gentle and kind. Rai deserves a home that is safe and calm.

Story
Wiley is an 8 year old seal point Siamese male cat. He’s incredibly vocal, goofy, and clumsy. I took him when I worked in an animal hospital. He was a kitten with low blood sugar, although he bounced back very quickly. He has a ravenous appetite and will gain weight if you allow him to over eat. I am incredibly busy with work and I think he needs more attention and stimulation than I can offer. He loves people and affection. Very good with my dogs and other cat. Unsure about children. Doesn’t like to be picked up but will lay in your lap. Has never had any accidents outside of the box. He will be your best friend and deserves a loving home.
