Story
Cheeto is a stray young adult male (6-8 months) who is very friendly, affectionate, playful and well socialized with other cats. He is housebroken and very much wants a nice family to give him a permanent home. He has a great personality and would do well with children or even as a 'lap cat' as he loves to cuddle.

Story
Gaelynn is an absolutely stunning young male tuxedo cat! With eyes that look like buttons, he looks kind of like a living stuffed animal! Gaelynn has had a rough start in life. He previously lived outdoors and was regarded as feral but he is really just in need of a little patience in a calm environment. Gaelynn sustained a broken leg in his previous life and, unfortunately, that break never healed correctly because Gaelynn was not taken to the vet when it happened. With all this said, Gaelynn gets around just fine and he doesn’t let a slight disability slow him down any! Gaelynn is happy to get some back scratches when he has gotten comfortable with his humans and he loves to indulge in wet food and treats! He is good with other cats and has been dog-tested with a large, calm, cat-friendly dog. Although he doesn’t go up to the dog, he doesn’t run from him either. Gaelynn is a very vocal, sensitive soul that is searching for that forever home that will accept him for who he is! He may never be a lap cat, but will eventually warm up to you if given enough time and patience. Gaelynn needs to go to a home with another cat companion as he has alway been around cats and does well with them. A home with a confident cat companion would be best for him. He is neutered and eartipped, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, flea treated, FIV/FeLV tested negative, and microchipped!

Are you looking for a super classy guy with dazzling green eyes that always likes to wear his tuxedo and give you lots of love? Introducing Frank Sinatra... come fly with him!!! This sweet crooner takes a little while to warm up but once he does, you will hear him purr from here to eternity! Frank is smooth, graceful, and great with other cats and dogs! We are told that he has also been around kids in the past. He comes from a home that had lots of other animals and seems to enjoy the company of other cats so it would be a definite benefit for Frank Sinatra to go to a home where he could have another animal companion. Frank Sinatra has got the world on a string and firmly believes that the best is yet to come! He makes us feel so young! He will have been neutered, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, flea treated, FIV/FeLV tested negative, and microchipped at his time of adoption! He was eartipped at his time of neutering... but that's life and he still looks like a member of high society with his handsome face and tuxedo! Frank Sinatra is ready to give you all of his tomorrows and become a part of your Rat Pack!

Story
Shall we dance?! Introducing the most dapper guy around... Fred Astaire! With his charming, sweet, suave personality and handsome face, this guy would make a great addition to your world! He likes to wear his tuxedo every day and has plenty of love to give you! He is friendly, carefree, is good with other cats and dogs, and is Mr. Smooth! (It may be important to note that although Fred is good with other cats, he does tend to be a dominant male and is currently top cat here! He would be best in a home with no other male cats due to his dominant personality and he would also be fine as an only pet.) "Fred Astaire... dance on air!" We are absolutely certain that Fred Astaire will dance his way into your heart as he has ours! Fred was previously living as an outside stray cat before being taken in and helped by some good Samaritans! He is now putting on the Ritz and he knows that the sky's the limit as far as his future is concerned! He loves to eat and to indulge in catnip! He will have been neutered, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, flea treated, FIV/FeLV tested negative, and microchipped at his time of adoption! Fred Astaire would make an excellent companion and dance partner for you! Interested adopters can submit an application by contacting HobosHome2020@yahoo.com and we will send you the necessary form!

Story
Suzy has been with us since January of 2022 so a little over 2 YEARS now! She is brave, independent, pretty, and strong. She was initially found outside trapped under somebody's deck during a major snowstorm, snowed in, and freezing with some frostbite on her nose! Poor Suzy was pretty emaciated when she was found but quickly gained weight and she has now become a healthy and pretty young lady with absolutely STUNNING golden-copper eyes! We just LOVE her very unique and gorgeous eye color and her pretty coat! She is probably about 3 years old now. It is important to note that Suzy would definitely prefer a home without any other cats but is fine with cat-friendly dogs that are willing to give her some space! Suzy would also be fine as an only pet! She has the typical sass of a tricolored female kitty and would do best with an experienced adopter. (It is very possible that she would be a lot different in personality in a real home without other cats.) We are not recommending a home with young children because she does scratch at times when she has had enough handling. She likes to be pet on the top of her head and tends to be a bit choosy with humans at times. Suzy has been spayed, is up to date on vaccines, dewormed, flea treated, FIV/FeLV tested negative, and microchipped!

Story
Calor is bringin' the heat and he is sure to warm your heart! Calor is a sweet adult cat who is about a year old and is friendly towards people once he has had the chance to warm up a bit and get to know you! Calor does tend to be shy at first and may need a longer period to adjust than some cats might. Calor likes to lounge around or get pets from his people and he will approach people for attention once he is adjusted! He is good with other kittens, cats, and dogs! Calor is a large, handsome, orange tabby cat who likes to curl up and take naps! Calor has been neutered, is up to date on vaccines, dewormed, flea treated, FIV/FeLV tested negative, and microchipped! He was eartipped at his time of neutering due to the fact that he was a part of a TNR project.
