Story
I got Pum from a friends friend when he was just a small kitty, he’s very energetic and playful, he’s very cuddly and loves to eat the only downside is that he plays too rough and has bad pee habits, he knows to use his litter, he’s very picky with his litter and i’m not in a position to accommodate that for him, I will lend you all his stuff and his past vet receipts, he has plenty of toys. Hes not a bad cat just a cat who needs a bit more than what i can give.

Story
I adopted Phoebe from the SPCA about a month ago. The once shy 11-month-old soon became full of energy and personality. However, due to her young age, she can be a little rambunctious. She is so kind and loves to be petted (frequently). My issues arose when she began to chew at the blinds, claw at my chair, and damage my bedspread. She typically wants attention during the night and sometimes gently tugs at my hair or jumps on my feet to wake me up. Due to renting and the furniture not being owned by me, I cannot risk any damage to the furniture. Unfortunately, I also don't have anywhere to put Phoebe at night to avoid waking me up. Lastly, I have dogs at home, and when I go back for the holidays, they do not interact well. Phoebe truly is an amazing cat who is hilarious and just wants love. I believe that a home that has experience with how to handle cats at such a young age, and more space for her would be a perfect fit. I know eventually that she will grow out of her kitten habits.

My name is Epona and I am a loving, dedicated companion looking for my new home. I love to hang out with you, cuddle, play, and be outside on a porch. I’m very good in the litter box and I am a bit overweight but otherwise healthy. :)

Story
Buffy is a survivor! She came in as a 3 week old baby who could not see because her eyes were so swollen and infected. She's since blossomed into a beautiful, cuddly kitten. She's on the quieter side and I swear she has an "old soul" when she stares into your eyes. She's good with nail trims and will sometimes fall asleep during them.

Story
Meet Mama and Baby Bear! Mama Bear is a gorgeous, classic Tortoiseshell lady with a long, lean build and beautiful amber eyes. She is a loyal, doting mother to her beloved single child, Baby Bear, to whom she devotes her entire life. She loves to swish around your legs with her long tail and drop at your feet, begging you to scratch her chin. Baby Bear is a very handsome, buff tabby fella with soulful, coppery eyes, and a shy but sweet personality. This sensitive sir is a bonafide mama’s boy and has an incredibly tight knit bond to his Tortie mom, Mama Bear. Baby Bear is still learning to love humans as much as he does his mom and other cats, so he will need a patient person to continue building that trust through snuggle time, interactive play and snacks! He is making great progress at the cat café. Mama Bear is still adjusting to the social life but is getting braver every day! Her love for her son is clear when she spoils him with full body baths. They are lovely, gentle souls who will make easy companions for someone who wants to open their heart and home to this delightful duo.

Story
Available to go home mid November. Born approx end of August, Meet Hudson, a dashing brown and grey tabby tux with a heart as soft as his fur. This charming little guy is equal parts playful and affectionate—he’s always up for a good wrestling match, followed by a cozy cuddle session. Hudson has a soulful gaze that will melt your heart, and he adores bonding with his humans. He’d be thrilled to be adopted with his best buddy Niles—they’re the perfect pair of purring companions!
