Story
Meet April — A Gentle Heart in Search of Her Forever Home. April’s story is one of quiet transformation. When she first arrived at our sanctuary as a tiny springtime kitten, she was shy and uncertain, unsure of the world around her. But with time, love, and patience, this beautiful girl has blossomed into a sweet, tender companion — now she just needs the right home to complete her journey. April is a soft soul who thrives in the company of other calm, gentle cats. She absolutely adores snuggling with her feline friends, often curling up in a cozy pile for warmth, comfort, and companionship. She feels safest and happiest when she has a calm kitty companion by her side — and for that reason, we would love to see her adopted with a trusted shelter friend she already knows and loves. With people, April is shy at first — but once she trusts you, she enjoys gentle pets, quiet snuggles, and will reward your patience with soft purrs and affection. She isn’t a bold, outgoing cat, but she is incredibly loving in her own peaceful, steady way. Watching her bloom into a confident companion will be one of the most rewarding experiences for her future family. April’s Info: Born approximately 3/1/2024; Sleek black coat; Spayed; Up to date on vaccinations; Tested negative for Feline Leukemia and FIV; Flea-treated, dewormed, and healthy. April will do best in a calm home where she can continue to blossom at her own pace, surrounded by understanding people and maybe even a snuggly feline friend. She’s waited so patiently for someone to see the beauty and love she has to offer. Could that someone be you? Apply to meet April today: https://www.catsanctuaryashland.org/adoption-application

Story
There are no surprises with our black and white boy Rio; just like his can't-be-missed coat, he has a huge personality, too! This sweet boy loves to help (supervise?) around our facility; he is always nearby to help you with whatever you are doing, or to encourage you to take a break and give him a snuggle or three. He is mischievous and full of fun, but is always happy to spend time cuddling with you! Rio is just over a year old, and has had surgery on his left eye (we aren't sure if he had an old injury or untreated infection, but he is 100% able to find you, whether it's time to have fun or a snuggle!) Rio was too sweet to stay a TNR; we know someone will be able to match the love he has to give! In addition, Rio has also: -Tested negative for Feline Leukemia/FIV; -Is neutered; -Is vaccinated; -Has been treated for fleas and worms; and -Had a negative fecal test. -The balance of his vaccinations are included in our adoption plan. Are you looking for a flashy cat with personality to spare? If you like a cat with a twinkle in his eye, then Rio is your guy! If you would like to set up a meeting with this handsome fella, please fill out an application today. https://www.catsanctuaryashland.org/adoption-application

Story
Meet Bolognese! Bolognese is a female, short hair grey tiger with an estimated DOB of 5/8/2021. Bolognese and her sister Pesto have been with us about a year and a half. These sweet girls started off a little on the shy side which is probably the only reason some lucky family hasn't snatched them up already. They may need a little time to settle into new surroundings, but these girls would most certainly bring joy to a new family. Both of these ladies love the laser pointer and would do just about anything for their Temptation Puree treats! Sister Marinara has already found her forever home, now it's time for her sisters to do the same. Both sisters are spayed, tested negative for feline leukemia/FIV, fully vaccinated, wormed, fecal tested negative, flea prevention. If you think your home might be right for Bolognese, Pesto, or maybe both please fill out an application today! Https://www.catsanctuaryashland.org/application

Story
Meet Markie – The Queen of Disapproval and Cuddles! Have you ever wanted a cat who will adore you and silently judge your every move? Well, Markie is here to fulfill that dream! With her signature disapproving glare, this stunning gray dilute calico is an expert in the art of looking unimpressed—whether you’re serving her dinner (too slow), rearranging furniture (why?), or simply existing in her presence (tsk tsk). But don’t be fooled by her stern expression—underneath that gaze is a total sweetheart! Markie loves attention, enjoys being held, and will happily lean in for pets once she decides you’re worthy. She’s got a soft, plush coat perfect for snuggling, a round full belly that’s just begging for gentle pats, and a quiet but loving personality that will melt your heart. At 10.4 pounds, Markie is a bigger girl, which just means more of her to love! Markie has an estimated DOB of 1/16/2023, putting her just over 2 years old. She’s spayed, tested negative for feline leukemia/FIV, fully vaccinated, flea- and worm-free, and all-around ready to go to her forever home. She seems to get along well with laid-back kitty friends, so she’d make a great addition to a chill feline crew. Markie is waiting for a home where she can be pampered, admired, and occasionally roll her eyes at your life choices. Could it be yours?

Story
February is right around the corner, so we should talk about love, which is easy to do when you have a lover like Bernard! Seriously- his photo should be next to the dictionary definition for "cuddles". I should probably start out with what Bernard is not; he is not a Maine Coon, although he does a pretty good impression of one! He is a gorgeous long-haired tiger, who is looked for a lap where he can stretch out and be loved. To that point, I have includede his photo from when he first arrived (photo #4). The difference from then until now is extraordinary; imagine what he will look like once he finds his forever home! Bernard and his sisters were found outside before Christmas, in that cold snap, with no food or water. At 6 months and 8 pounds, he has seen some hardship, and he is ready to find a good home, where he can put his past behind him and focus on keeping his new family happy and loved forever. In addition, Bernard has also: -Tested negative for Feline Leukemia/FIV; -Is neutered; -Is vaccinated; -Has been treated for fleas and worms; and -Had a negative fecal test. -The balance of his vaccinations are included in our adoption plan. You guys. Look at that face! Can you imagine looking at it every day? If that sounds like perfection, please fill out an application today. https://www.catsanctuaryashland.org/adoption-application
