Story
Fritz is over 10 years old and lived with my mother in law until she passed last January 2025. I have several other cats and she intimidates them. I would prefer to rehome her rather than putting her down. I’m not aware of any health problems. She is used to going outside but with the winter we’ve had, I didn’t feel that it was safe.

Story
Skylar is a 2-year-old cat who was originally caught as a stray when she was about 3 months old. Since then, she has been cared for in a home environment and has grown into a gentle and sweet cat. Skylar has a good appetite and enjoys her meals. Because she sometimes struggles to keep weight on, she does best with consistent feeding and someone who keeps an eye on her diet to make sure she stays healthy. She would do best in a patient, loving home where she can feel safe and comfortable. Skylar enjoys having a cozy place to relax and being around people who treat her kindly. Some words I would use to describe Skylar are gentle, calm, sweet, and affectionate. I am looking for a stable home that will continue giving her the care and attention she deserves.

Story
I adopted Scoop when he was just 4 months old, and from that moment on, he’s been my baby. He got his name because he was so tiny back then as he was small enough to fit right in the palm of my hand. Over time, his name evolved into “Scoop-a-Doodle,” which suits his personality perfectly. Scoop is a very calm and gentle cat who absolutely loves to snuggle. He’s happiest sleeping right next to you and being close to his favorite people. Like most cats, he’ll follow you around the house, curious about whatever you’re doing, and he never says no to treats. He loves exploring his surroundings and, more than anything, just wants a little extra love and attention sometimes.

Story
This is Scout! Scout is a very beautiful cat. She can be standoffish when she is first introduced to someone, but once she warms up, she is the sweetest cat I have ever met. She's soft, she can play fetch, and she loves to just sit next you while you do your thing. Scout is also a very particular cat. She doesn't like to be bothered; she likes to come up to you for love. She really likes being in her cat tree and really likes hanging out in cardboard boxes haha. Scout loves to be included with what you’re doing. She likes to watch movies with you, watch you cook, etc. Scout also would prefer to be the only pet in the home, but if you introduce her properly and give her the option for space, she probably would warm up to another pet.

Story
I received my pet from my son and he received her when she was a kitten from his neighbor. She is 1 years old or less. I am looking for someone who will love her, take care of her and give her good head rubs which she loves. She likes to play with feathers and toys that roll and make noise. She prefers seafood; wet food and dry. She loves her cat treats. She has never been in a cage, we let her just walk around and play. I have severe asthma and I cant keep her. We will provide the regular cat bed she sleeps in, her cat blanket, her brand new adorable leash, her toys, whatever food and cat litter she has remaining and she will have a medium size and large cat litter pan. The medium size litter pan is the one she uses for her cat litter, we use the large cat litter pan for bathing her. She loves the Bonkers brand Purr Pops, her favorite cat treat. She is used to her cat litter being cleaned every night and water bowl changed every night also. She also comes with 2 cat bowls.
