Story
Milo was supposed to be in our care for only a few days last summer, but has since been surrendered to us. He was neutered and vaccinated late last summer. He is approximately 2 years old. We have 3 other cats, and it seems like maybe he would like to play, but does not know how. He runs from dogs. We think if he were introduced slowly to other cats, he could grow socially with them. He loves jumping to catch objects at the end of a toy wand, and will play for long periods of time. He can be cuddly once he calms down, and will settle for a napping session in your lap. He keeps himself very clean, and has beautifully soft fur. We believe he will need someone with patience to get him settled in a new environment. He has only been indoors to our knowledge.

Story
Stewart was born 2/5/21. We got him at 2 months old from family. He is a sweet, gentle, well-mannered, patient cat. He does great with our 3yr 6yr old daughters as well as any visiting kids or adults. We had one older cat when he came to live with us and never had issues with them not getting along. He also gets along fine with our 2 XLg dogs, mostly they just ignore each other. He loves cuddles/snuggles and frequently climbs up to lay on us while we're watching TV or sometimes even when I'm sitting at my comp desk. Most nights he sleeps along side me. Our house is just too chaotic and we're so busy with our young kids that he doesn't get the attention he deserves. We'd like to find him a calmer home where he can get the attention and snuggles he wants.

Sweet older male cat craves more lap time than we can give him. Was my daughter’s but she moved out and can’t take him. He’s older but doesn’t act like it and is in good health. Comes with cat tower, food and bowls, litter and litter boxes, brushes, and toys.

Meet Sterling. He has such a sweet, loving boy! He was diagnosed with diabetes and has been treated with insulin twice a day. He is doing extremely well, and the vet feels it could go into remission at some point soon.

Cruze likes to play. Loves to snuggle in warm spaces. Will follow you around, as he loves people! Has gotten a little heavy, so you could save money on food as he needs to be on a diet 😆
