Story
Amelia is 12 years old but still looks and acts like a kitten. She’s had one home for about a decade. I originally adopted her from a petsmart when I was in college. She crawled right into my arms and started purring. She needs more cuddles and play time than I can provide for her, especially after the birth of my son. She gets along fine with our other cat and dog but doesn’t seem particularly attached to either of them. She would do fine in a house with one other animal (preferably a dog), or well as an only pet. What she wants in her remaining years (my guess is another decade) is a warm lap, an always full bowl, and someone to pull the string toy around for her. She will come with food, bowls, litter, a litter cabinet from Wayfair or a custom built one, your choice, toys, beds, and flea/tick prevention. She goes to Sand Creek Animal Hospital.

Story
I adopted Piper from an animal hospital as a kitten after her mom was hit by a car. She’s about 8 years old. Piper is a very special cat. She’s so so sweet and super cuddly but a bit timid. She likes certain people immediately and others she takes a bit to warm up to and may hide from. She likes to sleep with you, be spooned, snuggle on your lap, play fetch, and do parkour. She is hit or miss with dogs. She has done fine with the various dachshunds in my family and even used to play with my first one, but she hunts my poor pug and is scared of big dogs. She is indifferent to my other cat but likely would appreciate being an only pet. She is fine with the few older children she’s met but I wouldn’t recommend her to a home with small children as she has been known to accidentally scratch sometimes while playing or if she gets startled (launching herself off your lap, not swatting). Comes with a litter cabinet, food, flea/tick prevention and all other necessities.

Story
Goose is a sweet orange tabby around 2–3 years old who is looking for a patient and loving forever home. Goose was a stray kitten and can be shy when meeting new people or adjusting to new environments. He needs someone who understands that trust takes time. Once he feels safe, his gentle personality begins to shine. He's not the type of cat who will demand attention right away, but with patience, kindness, and a calm environment, he continues to build confidence. Goose would do best in a quiet home with someone who will let him settle in at his own pace. He gets along well with other cats and may even benefit from having a calm feline companion. He is not a fan of dogs, and because I haven't had him around children, I'm unsure how he would do with them. Goose is neutered, up to date on his vaccinations, and reliably uses the litter box.

Story
This is the hardest post I’ve ever had to make, this is Newt Rippley, my best friend of 8 years. The smartest cat I’ve ever met. She very talkative and will has a whole conversation with you! She responds well to things like “let’s go” etc, she knows her name. She loves, loves, loves to play!! She is also the biggest cuddle bug I’ve ever had! She love to sleep under the blanket, be held like a teddy bear at night and just be close to her human! She may take some time to warm up, but when she does, she’s an incredible cat! She’s also a super picky eater. But if you have a blanket she will be right there to snuggle! She doesn’t get along well with other animals or children. She needs to be a lone cat in a quiet household. She’s very loving but independent. Please consider this beautiful baby as your next best friend and give her th life she truly wants and deserves.
