Story
I am a very friendly and loving cat. I am equally great with grownups and kids. Extremely cuddly and affectionate. I am 4 years old and was rescued from a shelter along with my sister. I get along with other cats. I am living in a multi-cat home and getting a bit picked on by other cats, so looking for a less chaotic home where I can live in peace. I am a strictly indoor cat. I love taking naps on laps. I will be a great companion for an elderly person or a child. I like sleeping with my humans.

Story
Raymond Usher is looking for a new forever home by no fault of his own. His previous owners had a change in living situations and individuals in the household are allergic to cats. Raymond is a curious, quirky and loving young adult cat! He enjoys playing with flirt poles, sitting for yummy treats, climbing cat towers and bird watching out the window! He was raised with an older male cat that he has known since he was a kitten but has not met any other adult cats. He has been an amazing foster brother to many young kittens in his lifetime so far! Raymond was raised with a cat friendly, small dog that respected his space. He would need slow introductions with any cat friendly dog, as he may be wary of larger dogs. If Raymond sounds like a fit for you and your family, please reach out!

Story
My neighbor found her at his job during a very hot summer, and because I already had five cats, I still decided to take her in so she wouldn’t be left without a home. She was only a few months old when we rescued her. Shortly after, she had five kittens, and once they were old enough, I had her spayed. She is a very healthy cat who loves being petted and is extremely friendly with people. She had her vaccines and flea treatments. She can get along with other cats as long as they are not aggressive. My goal is to find her a loving home where she can receive the attention and affection she seeks. Unfortunately, she does not get along well with my other cats, which has made her unhappy. I believe she would do best in a home where she is the only cat or with just one other calm cat. The fee is to ensure a good home.

Story
Found in my backyard, he is a bit spicy/shy with a wound on his side. Took him in to get the wound checked out and give more care. After getting him vaccinated and neutered, he still seemed a bit anxious and my schedule got more busy so im looking to find him a home which he can get more love and care

Sammy is an energetic loving 8 month old. I hate that I have to rehome him but he needs an owner who has time to play and snuggle.
