Story
Marbles has been a cherished member of our family for many years. He is a sweet, healthy, and affectionate cat who has brought us countless smiles. This decision has not been easy, but we feel it is time to find him a home where he can receive the attention and companionship he deserves. Our family has recently grown including another cat, a dog, and now a wonderful grandchild. As life has become busier, we've noticed that Marbles isn't getting the one-on-one attention he once enjoyed, and we want to do what's best for him. Marbles has a playful and loving personality. He loves chasing string toys, gently pawing at your face when he wants attention, and curling up in your arm for a cozy nap. He has stunning green eyes, the softest fur, and a loud, happy purr whenever you scratch his chin. We love Marbles dearly, and our hope is to find a family where he can once again be the center of someone's world. He deserves a home filled with love, affection and plenty of snuggles.

Saia is a strikingly beautiful tortie with a loving and gentle personality who deserves a home of her own to be cherished and loved. In her young life she has already experienced abandonment, surviving life outside and motherhood. Now is ready to experience her best life. What does that look like to Saia? Naps in a quiet spot, pets from her person and winding between your feet looking up at you lovingly. Saia also loves to curl up close to you on the couch. Saia is also very active and loves playtime with wand toys, balls, catnip mice and anything else that catches her imagination. Saia is the perfect blend of mature indepedence and kittenish fun.
