Story
We took Babes in for my son...it was supposed to be temporary but has went on for close to a year. We've decided to try to adopt her out this way first to give her the best chance, she's a beautiful cat that just needs a good loving home. We already have our own pets and this was supposed to be temporary...we hope that someone will see that she just needs a good loving home, and will adopt her into her forever home♥️

Story
Meet Ruby! She is approximately 5 to 6 years old and full of love to give. Ruby is the ultimate cuddle companion and a total lap cat who just wants to be close to her people. She has a gentle nature and adjusts well to other cats, having lived with them before. On the rare occasions she’s been around dogs, she hasn’t been a fan, so she would do best in a home without them. Ruby is also great with younger kids, making her a perfect addition to a loving family.

Story
Ruth is a seven year old black and white domestic shorthair, named after Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and she has the personality to match her namesake! I adopted her as a kitten while living in Brooklyn, New York, and she has since moved with me from New York, to Texas, and finally to Ohio. She is loving, spunky, and very bonded to her brother Henry. She loves to lounge in the sun, cuddle with her brother and her humans, and while she doesn’t like to be held, she is a sweet, easy going cat. Unfortunately after having a baby, we are no longer able to care for our kitties and are searching for a loving home for them to go to together.
