Story
Come meet me at PAW!Adoption fee: $250Mouse is a handsome orange tabby with a sweet heart and a very special bond with his brother, Marble. These two boys absolutely adore each other and can often be found curled up together, enjoying a cozy nap. Mouse can be a little nervous when he first meets new people, but give him some time and patience, and his sweet personality starts to shine. Once he feels comfortable, Mouse can be incredibly affectionate and loving. And if there’s catnip involved? Even better! Mouse and Marble can be adopted separately, but their bond is something truly special, and Mouse would love nothing more than to find a forever home where they can stay together. They’re the perfect pair for someone looking to add twice the love, twice the cuddles, and twice the adorable naps to their family.If you’re looking for a gentle orange boy who just needs a little time to trust you—and who comes with a built-in best friend—Mouse might be your perfect match!

Come meet me at PAW!Adoption fee: $250Meet Princess!All hail Princess—your future royal roommate with a big heart and a slightly spicy personality! Princess is a sweet, affectionate girl who truly enjoys spending time with her people. She loves pets, attention, and being part of your daily “court,” whether that’s supervising your activities or claiming the best seat in the house like the royalty she believes she is. Like any proper monarch, Princess has her limits. When she gets overstimulated, she may give a quick “royal decree” (a gentle nip) to let you know it’s time for a short break from the royal audience. She does best with people who understand feline etiquette and respect her signals—after all, even queens need boundaries! With the right match, Princess shines as a loving companion who is equal parts cuddly and confident. She’ll happily share her affection on her terms and reward patient adopters with loyalty, purrs, and plenty of regal charm. If you’re ready to welcome a tiny ruler into your home—one with a big personality and an even bigger heart—Princess is ready to move into her forever castle.

Come meet me at PAW!Adoption fee: $250Meet Bubblegum Princess!Sweet, friendly, and absolutely adorable, Bubblegum Princess is a lovely girl who is ready to find her forever family! She’s got plenty of charm and personality, and she would love nothing more than a home where she can soak up all the love and attention. Bubblegum Princess would do best as the only cat in the home. She can feel a little overwhelmed when other cats are around, especially in the busy shelter environment, so we think she’ll be happiest having a space all to herself. As your one-and-only, she’ll have the chance to relax, feel confident, and really let her sweet personality shine. She’s the kind of girl who would love to be part of the family and enjoy all the wonderful things a forever home has to offer—cozy naps, playtime, gentle attention, and, of course, plenty of quality time with her favorite people. Why share the spotlight when you can have your very own Bubblegum Princess? If you’re looking for a friendly, loving companion who can be your one-and-only, this sweet girl could be the perfect match! Come meet Bubblegum Princess and let her charm you!

Come visit me at PAW - Adoption fee $250 - Karma is a sweet senior lady who has perfected the art of doing life exactly the way she wants — and honestly, we think she’s onto something! Her ideal day consists of finding a cozy spot, stretching out, taking a good nap, and lounging the hours away in comfort.Karma recently had a dental and is now proudly down to just one tooth, so soft food is the way to go for this golden girl for now. But don’t let her age or her one little tooth fool you — Karma still has plenty of personality and knows what she likes!Karma originally came into the shelter as a stray, but this isn’t her first time here. She has been through these doors before, and now she’s hoping that this time will be different. She’s looking for a loving, quiet home where she can finally settle in for good and be cherished throughout her golden years.Karma would adore a home without young children where she can enjoy the peaceful lifestyle she deserves. She isn’t looking for a busy household or endless excitement — just a soft place to land, a cozy bed, some tasty soft food, and someone who will love her exactly as she is.After everything she’s been through, Karma deserves to spend her senior years feeling safe, comfortable, and truly home. Could you be the person who gives this sweet old lady her happily-ever-after?
