Story
Hi, I'm a beautiful 4-year-old girl looking for a patient, understanding person to call my own. I'm still learning that humans can be trusted, so I'm continuing to be socialized and make progress every day. I may not be the cuddly, lap-cat type right now, but that doesn't mean I don't have so much love and personality to share. I simply need someone who will let me move at my own pace and celebrate the little milestones with me. One thing I do love? Playing with my favorite toys! Whether I'm chasing, batting, or pouncing, playtime is where my fun-loving side really shines. I'd do best as the only cat in the home, where I can feel safe, secure, and have all the attention to myself. A quiet home with someone who understands that trust takes time would be my ideal match. If you're willing to give me patience, kindness, and the chance to blossom, I think you'll find that watching me grow into a confident companion is incredibly rewarding. I'm hoping to find the person who's perfect for me.

I found this little guy on the sidewalk soaking wet after a recent big storm. He was in critical condition when I took him to the animal hospital. It only took a few hours of warmth and care to bring out a very sweet and loving kitten. He loves to play and snuggle and is constantly purring. Definitely the sweetest cat I’ve ever met. His arms were shaved from the animal hospital (to explain the bald patches.) He still needs his shots and doesn’t weigh enough to be spayed yet.

Hello, I found this little guy at my back door looking for his forever family. He is a stray and must of found his way to my back yard because of my 6 other cats. He's such a sweet little guy and purrs when he eats and takes the 2 step while eating. He has all his shots, dewormed and de flea'd and the vet believes he is 8 to 10 weeks old. He loves my family of cats and seems to want this family unit. I'm not able to take on another cat and need to find him a loving home to grow up in. I've named him Tigger and he seems to acknowledge it already. Please help tigger find a loving home. thank you!

Story
Our cat is about 1 year old. We got him from friends when he was young. He is a domestic shorthair cat, friendly, curious, and used to living indoors. He is litter box trained and knows how to behave in a home. He is not neutered and has not received his vaccinations yet, so his new owner will need to take care of his veterinary needs. We would love to keep him, but unfortunately our son has developed an allergy to cats, and we are no longer able to keep him at home. This is a difficult decision for our family, and we want to find him a safe and loving forever home. We are looking for a responsible family who will love him and take good care of him.

Story
Mama is two years old. Her name is April. She has been living a life by herself outside but there are people who take care of me when I go to ask for food. I am used to being around people, will rub into legs, meow for food all the while. Had several litters and some are around in homes I visited. Looking for a home if someone wants a cat who is independent and is willing to adapt to my new family. I need an inside. I have my vaccine rabies and distemper. I am still recovering from my spay surgery as well as vaccinations so I am groggy in my pictures.
