Story
Millie has been in foster care for a while now. She is 4 years old and very sweet. We havent been able to test her with dogs or cats but with slow proper introductions we believe she will get along. She is owner surrendered and is in foster care right now. We havent had any behaviour problems with her and she is litterbox trained. If you are interested in adoption please fill out the Adopt A Pet application and we will be in touch. We can give you more history on this sweet little girl at that time.

Story
Are you a fan of big kitties with tiny, squeaky meows? If the answer if yes, Che Che might be your guy. A lover of toy mice, window-watching, and all things kibble, this handsome house tiger would flourish in a calm home where he feels safe to be himself and explore his new surroundings. His foster mom fell in love with this boy after his brief time in her care and she noted that he enjoys plenty of cat scratchers at his disposal as he is a big fan of exercising his claws (which is the natural instinct of all cats). Come meet Che Che today!

Story
As a certified `good boy`, Flynn came to us through no fault of his own. Flynn is a patient gentleman who enjoyed the company of cats in his prior home. Is the the flashiest cat at the shelter? No. Does he demand to be the center of attention? Also no. But does he lean in to chin scritches like no other? YES. Don`t overlook this precious boy. He may be just what your life has been missing.

Story
Javy is sponsored by Steve Cook and Anne Brown, who fostered him.His fosters report:Javy (hah-vee) is a remarkable boy, the cutest little imp there ever was, with his flattish face, gorgeous green eyes, and slightly splayed paws. He also is the sweetest and most trusting. In spite of growing up on the streets, Javy loves to be petted, held, hugged, and kissed. He leans in when you pet him, rather than shying back, like even many house-raised cats do. Javy rarely meows, but rather trills and purrs. Javy also entertains himself joyfully for hours playing with a little cloth mouse toy. He loves to curl up with you on a couch or armchair. He`s a cheerful boy who walks around with his tail straight in the air. Javy was one of several stray cats who still come to our backdoor to eat and drink water. Unlike most of the others, who run at the sight of us, Javy just walked himself right through our back door when we opened it and he never looked back. We are sad to let Javy go, but we have other foster cats who need more attention than he does. Please consider adopting Javy. He will blossom in a loving home. He will love you, entertain you, fascinate you, and become your beloved companion.
