Story
Catrick is 7 years old. He loves attention and wants to follow you everywhere you go. His hobbies include watching birds, squirrels and zoomies through the cat tunnel. He has no known medical issues, and just needs his yearly distemper & rabies vaccine. He is an indoor cat only. He lives with three other cats, an is semi-bonded to one named Dopey. Dopey is the other cat I have listed. Let me know if you would be interested in them both. Otherwise, they are fine to be adopted out separately. FIV/FeLV negative, and microchipped. Catrick is great with our child, and is very patient while she is learning to pet him. He has lived with three dogs, and didn’t really care too much about their presence. He just minded his business. Catrick is a good boy. He warms up to you pretty quick.

Story
Dopey is 6 years old. Dopey is a very shy cat, but also very adventurous. Dopey is a polydactyl cat. He is quite the hunter, and a snuggle bug. He loves watching and chattering at birds outside, and will eat any bug you have in your house if he can get his paws on it (he can!). He is semi-bonded to Catrick, the other cat I have listed. If you are interested in adopting them as a pair, let me know. Otherwise, they are fine to be adopted out separately. Dopey can be very anxious. He hides, and prefers women to men. He does not like a ton of commotion, and likes his peace. He is more likely to come out of his cat tower if you are sitting on the couch with a blanket. He will hop up on your lap to kneed then purr loudly. He will gladly nap on you for hours. Dopey would do well in a max two cat household with a female owner. We do not know why men give him anxiety, but he’s been like this since we adopted him. Dopey only needs his yearly distemper and rabies vaccine. FIV/FeLV neg.

Story
ADOPTION FEE HAS BEEN WAIVED IN AN ATTEMPT TO HELP OUR TABBY KITTENS AND CATS FIND THEIR FOREVER HOMES! Noble is a super SWEET young man who is still a young adult cat. He is great with other cats, kittens, and dogs and will cuddle up with other cats for a cat nap! If you give him an enrichment puzzle or toy, he is very inquisitive and will entertain himself! Noble has a pretty calm personality and is a low drama cat when living among other cats! He can often be found sitting on a windowsill watching the birds or hanging out by the couch! It may be important to note that he can be a little shy when meeting new people. This handsome guy is the cat's pajamas with his attractive tiger stripes and plentiful markings. He will make a great little companion for another cat! We are requiring that he go to a home where he will have another cat companion because he is usually always hanging out with other cats here. Noble will have been neutered, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, flea treated, FIV/FeLV/HW tested negative, and microchipped at his time of adoption! Interested adopters can submit an application by contacting HobosHome2020@yahoo.com or by sending us a message and we will send you the necessary form!

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.

Story
Suzy has been with us since January of 2022 so a little over 3 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 thought to be a middle-aged cat 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! Interested adopters can submit an application by contacting HobosHome2020@yahoo.com and we will send you the necessary form!
