Story
Furbee is a medium haired tuxedo purr baby kitty boy. He was a scared, hissy kitten at a high kill shelter when a foster parent took him and turned him into a love bug and purr machine. Furbee has a mild wobble kitten condition from birth, so he often runs with a wiggle, but that doesnt stop him from climbing into bed with his foster mom. Furbee plays with his brother Sailor, another wobble kitten as well as the other cats in the house and a small dog too. He gets along with everyone. Playful and sweet, soft, and silky, take Furbee home and he will purr you to sleep. Hes a keeper! For more wiggles and giggles take Sailor too.

Sunshine is named perfectly - her personality is sunshine and sweetness and warmth. This sweet girl came to us with an injured leg that seemed to just start getting better by the day. We are just checking in with her as she lets us know how she is doing. But what we know for sure is that she seems as happy as can be and would love to show you how much she loves to snuggle, play and purr.

Story
Carolina is the absolute sweetest cat. She explores without fear, walking around her foster's house like she's lived there forever. Carolina is not afraid of new people (she greets them boldly!) or new animals and is even tolerant of cats who may not have her manners. You can carry her around and she is so perfectly content. She is happy to be in human arms and never struggles to get down. Their arms get tired before she tires of being held! Carolina LOVES drinking from the faucet and will see you going to the bathroom and follow for water from the tap. Shes been a great mom to her five sweet kittens but is a little done with their antics and ready to curl up and relax as the baby of your household.Carolina's tail is a bit unusually short. We don't know the cause, but it appears shes missing some vertebrae. There is no abnormality and pain and she has full fur so if it wasnt genetic, she must have been super young. Her short tail is super cute and kind of endearing part of her! Shes very talkative, but not in a loud way. She will definitely chat with toys and her kittens, and when you pet her, she will always make some sound to acknowledge you.

Story
There's no need to pussyfoot around the topic. Roseland has a few pounds to lose, but isn't that true for many of us. Roseland is a true professional cuddler. Weighted blanket? Check! Makes the bed feel not so lonely? Yep. Gives relax & take a nap vibes? Definitely. Jump on your countertops? Mmm, probably not. Energetic attacker of toys? No. There's a time in everyone's life for a kitten and then there's a time when you want a big lug of a cat to calm your nerves and tell you that everything will look better after a nap. Cool fall weather will be here before you know it. You better grab Roseland and curl up with a good book!
