Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
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
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.

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.

She's a sweet girl. She loves cuddles but she doesn't want to be picked up though. I have to give her up because of landlord issues.But I would like for her to go somewhere that someone is patient. She's still a little skittish.

Story
Meet Trippy, a dapper 3-year-old Domestic Shorthair with a classic tuxedo coat and a heart of gold. Trippy is the definition of "chill." He’s a mellow, laid-back companion who is just as happy napping in a sunbeam as he is keeping you company while you relax. If you’re looking for a low-stress addition to your home who already has his "adult manners," Trippy is your guy. The Details: Age: 3 years young Gender: Male Health: Fully neutered Personality: Easygoing, friendly, and calm. Why he’s available: Due to a combination of a baby on the way and a change in living arrangements that triggered unexpected allergies, we are heartbreakingly looking for a new spot for Trippy. We want to ensure he goes to a stable, loving home where he can get all the chin scratches he deserves. Ideal Home: Trippy would thrive in almost any environment, provided there is a cozy bed!
