Story
Horizon is one of a litter of 5 kittens, Mom and Dad on premises. He is playful, loving, and full of energy. He is 5 months old. Looking for a family, that will care for and treat him with love. He is in a loving home but, we have other cats, and a dog, and food is expensive for 13 pets. Therefore, we are looking to adopt out 4 kittens and their parents. We are in the Rome area. Rome Animal hospital has a new cat program where you pay a little each month and it covers spraying/neutering and shots and exams.

Story
Elvira is a very playful 10 year old kitty. She will love every toy you bring home to her, and would probably be great in a home with kids as long as they understand her boundaries (She hates being held and will scratch + will bite if pet too much/too fast). She also LOVES food and will beg for whatever you have. Shes very good with my 2 small dogs and my bearded dragon. Although her and the cat don't really love each other, she does tolerate certain cats and will even lay next to them on the bed. She will need an experienced cat owner due to her eye condition that causes tearing 24/7 and her occasional skin problems that cause her to scratch herself up terribly. She also has extremely fast growing nails that will need to be trimmed monthly. She mostly hangs out in my bedroom on the bed all day but as soon as it's bedtime she comes out and starts to ask for love. Anytime we go into the bedroom shes so excited to see us and starts purring immediately because she loves to sleep with us

Story
Billie came to us about 2 years ago from a co-worker of my husband's when she was a kitten. They were going to put her outside to fend for herself and we felt bad and stepped in, got her spayed, vaccinated, and fostered her in our home for a while. We had two other cats at the time, but one has passed away, the other is still with us. Billie has always gotten along with them and has no aggression issues. We are looking to rehome Billie due to the fact that we are expecting a baby soon and she has been triggering allergies all of a sudden (this sometimes happens in pregnancy) and we are worried that the newborn will have the allergies as well. Our other cat is a hypoallergenic breed so we are able to keep her. Looking for a good home, she is super playful, curious, and LOVES to eat, so she will make a great companion. She really loves kids too!
