Story
Stevie is a sweet cat. Our grandson wanted us to take him so we did. We cannot have him in the house but we have a shed that has heat and we have them in there with his food and water and cat tree and a litter box. He is trained with a litter box. I hope to find somebody who wants a house cat because he is made to be a house cat. We have neighbors that have chickens and he’s been going over there and so that’s why we have to get rid of him. We don’t want to leave him locked up in the shed all the time we liked it when he could go outside, but now he can’t. He would be so happy in the house.

Story
Sol is about 10 years old. He is prefers to be outdoors most of the time, and isn't tolerant of being locked indoors for long periods (he gets very vocal). He is thin because he has a metabolic disorder (hyperthyroidism), but it doesn't slow him down. We tried to medicate him regularly for the disorder, but he wasn't cooperative and we gave up. Sol is easy going and very loving when he gets to know you. He likes to cuddle in your lap, particularly in the Winter. I don't know what breed he is. He is very long and lean. He has medium length white hair which he sheds quite a bit in the Spring. We can't keep Sol any longer because our neighborhood has become overrun by foxes and it is no longer safe for him. He has been in some serious fights with foxes and has had to be treated by a vet for infections.

Story
My stepfather passed away a few months ago, I’ve taken care of Betty and Wilma at their home since then, but I need to rehome them so I can get the house ready to sell. I can’t take them in because they don’t like my dog, and with them being at another property, it’s hard for me to give them the time and attention they deserve. Wilma, the black cat does require a kidney care food, but other than that there’s no other special needs, and they’re as easy to take care of as any other cat. I don’t want to split them up. It was my step father‘s wishes that they not be split up, they’re sisters from the same litter and have been together the whole time. All they need is a loving caring home. also, this site forces me to pick a breed option, without an unknown option, they were adopted from the local Humane Society, so their breed unknown.
