Story
Hey, I’m Rocky! Four years old, tabby, and very into being everyone’s friend.I came to the shelter with some of my cat buddies after my person could no longer care for us. I was really loved in my last home, and it shows. I’m social, snuggly, and always down to hang out. I’ve lived with a bunch of other cats and was real good pals with the family dog too. I’d groom him, snuggle him, and generally act like we were the same species. I love attention, playtime, and being where the action is.I'm looking forever home where I can get lots of attention and spend the rest of my nine lives being doted on! If you're looking for a friendly little lovebug, consider filling out an adoption application for me!**Neutered, FIV/FeLV negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention**

Story
Marsh is a handsome tabby with the chubbiest cheeks around!A few months ago, Marsh was found alone in a ditch on Behnfeldt Road. Thankfully, a kind man working in the area stopped to help and brought him to FDHS so he could have a chance at finding his happily ever after. It's pretty clear that Marsh belonged to someone at some point. He's incredibly friendly with staff and volunteers and is always looking for an opportunity to sneak in a few extra pets. If you're standing still, there's a good chance Marsh will be rubbing against your legs trying to convince you that attention should be a full-time job.This easygoing guy gets along great with the other cats he shares his space with and doesn't seem too concerned about the dogs nearby either. Between his good looks, laid-back personality, and affectionate nature, Marsh is going to make one lucky family a wonderful companion. **Neutered, FIV/FeLV negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention**

Story
The name’s Tennessee. I’m an 8 to 9 year old tuxedo lady who arrived here back in April as part of a hoarding case, and I’ve been waiting ever since for someone with good taste and a comfortable couch to take me home.The youngsters in my cat room may call me “grumpy,” but I prefer “experienced.” I like my peace, my quiet, and for everyone to follow the rules. Somebody around here has to keep the riffraff in line, and apparently that somebody is me.I’m not looking for anything too wild in my retirement years. A calm home, a sunny window, and humans who appreciate a gal with a little puuurrrsonality would suit me just fine. Other mellow cats and respectful dogs are acceptable tenants, provided they understand that I am the sheriff, mayor, and queen of the household.Beneath my tough exterior is just a sweet ol' thing who’s had a tough past and would really love a person to call her own. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have important business to attend to, namely glaring at the others and supervising everything. **Spayed, FIV/FeLV negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention**

Story
Chickpea is a super sweet little gray and white cutie who has already overcome more in his short life than any kitten should have to.A couple of weeks ago, we received a call about some kittens who needed help with their “goopy” eyes. When they arrived, it quickly became clear that Chickpea was in much worse shape than we had anticipated. His eye infection was so severe that we weren’t sure what the future would look like for this tiny guy, and he was absolutely covered in fleas that were quite literally eating him alive.But Chickpea wasn’t giving up. After several baths, lots of delicious meals, medication and an even bigger helping of love - this little guy has made an incredible turnaround. He is finally on the up and up and ready to start looking for his forever family! And somehow, after everything he’s been through, Chickpea is still one of the sweetest little kittens you could ever meet. He absolutely loves attention, is super tolerant and has been nothing but loving with his caregivers.One of Chickpea’s eyes may look a little different, but don’t let that fool you. He is a happy, playful kitten who is ready to live life just like any other healthy little guy. Chickpea has already fought incredibly hard to get here. Now he just needs someone to show him that all those hard days were leading him somewhere wonderful. **Scheduled to be neutered, and up-to-date on age appropriate vaccines & monthly prevention**
