Story
For the past few months, we've seen this kitten on the street, abandoned. I'm pretty sure he belonged to a home and was thrown out. Lately, he's been coming to my house more often. We have two cats, so it was difficult for me to give him the welcome he deserved. But the cold and rainy season has begun, and our hearts simply wouldn't allow us (my family and I) to keep him on the street in this terrible weather. We made the decision and adapted an ideal space for Phillip. He's a loving, peaceful, clean, kind, calm, extremely affectionate, and very docile cat (we assume he's a male). We sincerely hope he finds the home he deserves. He'll be the perfect companion for whoever has love reserved for this beautiful kitten. I hope he finds the perfect home for him; he deserves it. He should have a new chance. I hope he finds the perfect home for him; he deserves it. He should have a new chance.

Story
We are looking for a loving home for our 10-year-old cat. We have had him since he was a tiny kitten, and he hasbeen part of our family his whole life. He was recently diagnosed with hypothyroidism and some anxiety thats led to litter box issues. So for all of his life he has been going in the litter box except for the past two months due to this anxiety. With a 3-year-old and an 8-month-old in a one-bedroom basement apartment, life is just really full and busy right now. We’ve realized we arent able to give him the calm space, time, and attention he needs to work through his medical and behavioral challenges the way he deserves. He’s a sweet, sensitive boy who bonds closely with his people and does best in a quieter home. This decision is completely heartbreaking and made out of love for him. We just want to find the right person who can give him the patience and stability he needs in this next stage of life.

Story
Stella is a 6-year-old (turning 7 in July) spayed female cat who is need of a new home. This is due to the fact that I have developed an allergy thats getting worse and can no longer keep her for 1. my health and 2. I dont want to have to rearrange her life ex: kick her out of my room, decrease her range of motion, get rid of toys and trees, etc and decrease her quality of life when she can go to someone who can give her that and more. She has already been rehoused once before (my sister to me) at the age of 1 and has been with me ever since. She lived with another cat who was five years older than her, but he passed away last year and we then decided to move and so it has been a year of a lot of stressful change for her and I don;t want to any more to that if I can help it. She is shy, adventurous, curious, intelligent, and slow to warm up, but when she does shes incredibly sensitive and affectionate. She is primarily an indoor cat, but she also loves to wander/sunbathe outside.

Chloe is 7 years old and would thrive in a home without dogs. A home with other cats would be ok. Chloe is shy and sweet and prefers to be petted when she wants to be petted.

Story
Got him at 6 months. He is now 2 1/2 (estimated birthday in August). He tore his cornea while staying with another cat for a month. I was unable to pay funds for repair surgery and could not guarantee the surgery would save his eye. He is about a year post op and is better than ever with just one eye! He’s pretty long and weighs abt 17lbs. I try my best to make sure he was never overfed, he just has a lot of room for food! He loves to sprint, he only hardly talks when he’s hungry, he’s more calm when by the window and could be there for hours. He will follow you and lay wherever when comfortable. I want to find him a loving home as I unfortunately am not able to maintain him on my own. He doesn’t attack like bite or scratch when approached, he is really nice, but loves alone time. He doesnt mind being picked up etc, he only ever pushes you off of him when annoyed or angry. Please reach out with any additional details!
