Story
Barn Cat These cats are not well-suited as indoor only pets and can help families looking for natural rodent and pest control on their property. Because they are independent, they do best as indoor/outdoor cats. These cats typically enjoy free access to the outdoors, where they can come and go at will. Territorial by nature, they’ll rarely venture far from their home. They understand the safety of shelter and predictability of a food source in the shed, barn or garage where they are housed and fed. Barn cats do best in groups. Like all cats, outdoor cats require: – Shelter from predators and the elements – Clean, fresh water – Healthy, regular diet – Veterinary care when needed As an adopter, you should understand that these cats are unlikely to become social, affectionate lap cats. They will most likely remain shy and skittish around people but may warm up to those who take care of them, particularly those who feed them. Our outdoor cats are: – Spayed/Neutered – Up to date on vaccines

Story
Meet Theo! You'll truly never meet a chiller cat. Theo is a professional napper and sun bather. But don't let this fool you, he still has some occasional bursts of energy. He loves swatting at wand toys and crinkle balls! After some playtime, he'll happily curl up for a long nap and cuddle session. Theo would do best in a home with older children who will understand Theo needs a balance of social time and independent time. Come meet him!

Story
Terri is a quiet, independent girl with a heart that opens a little more each day. At seven years young, she’s looking for a special someone who understands that trust takes time and that love comes in many forms. A bit of a wallflower at first, Terri prefers to take in the world from a safe distance while she decides who deserves a place in her heart. But give this independent girl the time and space she needs, and you’ll begin to see her charming personality emerge! Her curiosity and playful side blossom as she grows more comfortable. Terri is a sweet soul who enjoys companionship but prefers to make the first move. She’s not one to demand attention, but rather a girl who appreciates a human who understands that love sometimes means simply sharing the same space until she’s ready for more. Miss Terri is hoping to find a cat-savvy person who will let her settle in at her own pace and celebrate each little milestone along the way. In return, you’ll have the joy of watching a once-cautious kitty discover that she’s safe, cherished, and finally home. **May be a great candidate for a working cat on your farm or an indoor/outdoor kitty for rodent control!**
