Story
Valerie is 2 - 3 years old; we are not sure. She was found outside in a cat colony where a rescue group was feeding. But Valerie was very tame and affectionate. Her foster family describes her as the sweetest, most loving cat. She loves to be picked up and rubs her head against your neck. She is living with other cats in her foster home and would probably prefer a more calm environment. She wants all of the attention from her humans. She did test positive for feline FIV but negative for leukemia. She can live as long as cats which do not have the disease (please check online), cannot spread to to other pets unless there is a deep bite (not spread through grooming, sharing food, water or litter boxes) and cannot spread to humans.

Story
Butterscotch is a big orange male cat who was found as a stray. A local homeowner was feeding him but he was looking ragged. So he went to the vet and was treated for an upper respiratory condition. He has also been neutered and received his vaccines. He is a playful and sweet boy (like most orange male cats) and is enjoying feeling better and eating regularly. He would love to be your indoor cat. The homeowner would keep him but his other cat is very territorial and doesn't want a housemate.

Lily is about 14 months old. She was rescued from a hoarding situation where there were 36 cats. She was not spayed or vaccinated. Now she has all of her vet services and is negative for feline AIDS and leukemia. She is sweet, loving and playful. You are not going to see many cats with her coloring! She is strikingly beautiful.

Story
Brixxie is about 2 years old. She has a white bib, white front legs, a cute white mustache and beautiful golden/green eyes. Moonpie is her daughter, and she is 11 months old. She has a white bib and striking green eyes. They both have sleek, shiny fur. They love to be together, and their foster mom is dreaming of them going to the same new home. You will never feel guilty if you have to leave them to go to that pesky job. They will always keep each other entertained.

Story
Posey, approximately 1 year old, was rescued after she injured her paw. Her leg became infected and could not be saved. So Posey is a very special girl missing her left front leg, sometimes known as a "tripod". But Posey is not disabled. She can do everything another cat can do; nothing slows her down. She is very sweet and affectionate. She will sleep with you all night. She loves belly rubs and to lie with her feet in the air. Sometimes she makes biscuits in the air. Some might think Posey is defective, but we think she is perfect. She is ready for her forever home.

Story
GiGi is approximately 3 years old and weighs about 12 lbs. She does well with dogs and other cats. She loves to be petted and will sleep with her foster family if allowed to. She doesn't like to be picked up but will sit on the couch with you and allow you to pet her for hours. She would fit into any household if it is not too rowdy. Her eyes are either green or golden depending upon the light. She is not spayed yet, but has an appointment.
