Story

Abby and Tigres are two beautiful best friends looking for a loving home where they can spend their golden years together.Abby is a gorgeous 12-year-and-8-month-old lilac point Siamese with a gentle, soulful presence. She’s the quieter half of this duo, a true cuddle connoisseur who would much rather be snoozing in a cozy bed or curled up beside her favorite person. Abby brings a calm, comforting energy to any room and thrives in peaceful surroundings where she can relax and feel safe.Tigres, an 8-year-and-9-month-old calico beauty, is the more outgoing of the pair. She’s the first to greet you at the front of the kennel, ready to say hello and soak up attention. Friendly and confident, Tigres helps pave the way for her shyer sister and adds a bright spark of personality to their partnership.These lovely ladies came to the shelter as owner surrenders due to family changes. They were deeply loved and well cared for their entire lives, and it shows in their sweet temperaments and strong bond. They rely on one another for comfort and companionship, so they must go home together for their continued happiness and wellbeing.Abby and Tigres have been indoor-only cats and will need to remain indoors to stay safe and healthy. Their previous owner shared that they have done okay with dogs in the past, however, any introduction to new pets should be done slowly and with close supervision to ensure a smooth and safe transition for everyone involved.If you’re looking to open your heart and home to two affectionate, loyal companions who will fill your days with quiet love and gentle purrs, Abby and Tigres are ready to meet you.

Story

At just 3 years old, this handsome brown and white tabby has already shown how resilient and loving a cat can be. Poseidon first came to us as a semi-social boy and quickly found a home alongside another feline friend. Sadly, after a traumatic encounter with a neighborhood stray cat, Poseidon suffered a severe tail injury and heartbreakingly lost his companion. For his safety, he was rehomed — a decision made purely out of love and protection.In his next home, Poseidon truly blossomed. He adored having the option to explore the outdoors, stretching out in warm patches of sunshine before trotting back inside to curl up on his favorite blanket. He’s the perfect mix of adventurer and cuddle bug. His caregiver describes him as super sweet, super friendly, and very food/treat motivated — the quickest way to his heart is definitely through snacks!Poseidon has lived with both cats and dogs and generally doesn’t mind their company. Because of his past trauma, he may occasionally put up a little wall to protect himself and swat to say, “Hey, I need space.” He’s not being mean — he’s just learned to advocate for himself. With slow, patient, and closely monitored introductions, he can coexist peacefully with other pets. His ideal home will understand that thoughtful transitions set everyone up for success.Unfortunately, free-roaming dogs in his most recent neighborhood made his family worry about his safety, especially since he enjoys outdoor adventures. They loved him deeply and made the difficult choice to return him so he could find a home where he’ll never have to face that kind of risk again.Poseidon will come with his beloved blanket and a brand-new scratcher — little pieces of comfort from the life he’s known. What he needs most now is a patient, loving family willing to give him time to settle in and feel secure.With kindness, understanding, and a cozy sunny spot, Poseidon will reward you with sweetness, companionship, and a loyal heart. He’s been through so much — and he’s so ready for his happily ever after.
