FELV+DOB: 4/12/2024 *This cat is currently in a foster home and arrangements can be made for a meeting once you have applied with us. All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process. Due to the large number of inquiries received, we are unable to respond to emails quickly. One of the biggest misconceptions about feline leukemia, which suppresses a cat’s immune system, is that it is an automatic death sentence. There are many variables, however, that come into play that determine how FeLV will affect a particular cat.  To learn more about this condition visit:  https://resources.bestfriends.org/article/feline-leukemia-felv-faqsMarch 7, 2026, 9:49 am

Story
DOB: 4/12/2023 In the midst of the shelter's bustling halls, where hopeful whispers mingle with the soft hum of anticipation, there sits a gentle soul yearning for a place to call home. Meet Geese a Laying, a tabby tuxedo with a dash of uniqueness—a charming brown spot upon her nose, marking her as one-of-a-kind among her peers. Geese's journey to the shelter was one of uncertainty, as she found herself amidst the company of nine other feline companions, all seeking solace and a chance for a better tomorrow. Despite the whirlwind of her arrival, Geese remains a beacon of resilience, her timid nature masking a heart brimming with untold stories and unspoken dreams. At just under a year old, Geese is on the cusp of adulthood, yet she carries herself with a grace and innocence that speak to her youth. She longs for a tranquil sanctuary, a calm abode where she can unfurl her wings and reveal the gentle spirit that lies within. With patience and understanding, Geese will blossom into a faithful companion, eager to shower her new family with love and affection. In return, she seeks a kindred soul, someone who will cherish her for the unique individual she is, and offer her the stability and security she so deserves.   Come meet me at the cage-free Adoption Center! All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. **If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process.

Story
DOB: 2/18/2023   Hi everyone, my name is Lia! I’m a sweet, laid back tabby who loves sunshine, cozy nap spots, catnip, and soaking up human attention. I also like to be the head of the household, so I’d do best as an only cat where I can enjoy all the love for myself. I’ve had quite the journey, but what I want now is a forever family to share calm, happy moments with head scritches, warm laps, and sunbeam naps included. Think we might be a match? I’d love to find my happy place with you and make some beautiful memories together!  Come meet me at the cage-free Adoption Center! All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. **If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process.

Story
Meet Nubbs! Nubbs came to us as a stray in October of 2024 with a severely injured tail that unfortunately needed to be amputated. Thanks to the care of our veterinary team and the patience of our volunteers, she recovered beautifully — and her adorable little nub is how she earned her name! When Nubbs first arrived, she was understandably timid and shy. Life outside hadn’t been easy, and she needed time to learn that people could be kind. During her recovery with our volunteers, she slowly began to come out of her shell. What started as cautious curiosity soon turned into gentle requests for pets. Before long, this shy girl revealed her true personality: sweet, affectionate, and incredibly gentle. Once she feels safe, Nubbs loves attention and will happily lean into pets — and sometimes she’ll even roll over and ask for belly rubs, which is a very special honor in the cat world. Nubbs gets along well with other cats and would likely do best in a calm home with patient adopters who will give her a little time to settle in and feel secure. Once she trusts you, she will reward you with quiet companionship and lots of soft affection. Her tail may be shorter than most, but Nubbs has a very big heart and so much love to give. If you're looking for a gentle, sweet companion who just needs a little time to blossom, Nubbs may be the perfect cat for you. DOB: 10/15/2021 All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process.

Story
DOB:  12/20/2022 If you’re looking for a cat with some serious cattitude, Reese is for you! Reese and her sister recently left the rough and tumble of the outdoor lifestyle for a more posh indoor life. It’s been an exciting, but at times scary, adjustment for her. The sass required to be an outdoor kitty has, shall we say, stuck with Reese a bit making for quite a fun purrrrsonality. Reese has HUGE green eyes too! They can be a bit soul piercing but are full or silliness and love!    She also has quite the love for churus! She will actively grab your hand to ensure she gets every last drop of Churu!    Reese is a silly and sweet girl that has been waiting quite awhile for her fur-ever home. Consider giving this silly and adorable girl a chance!  Come meet me at the cage free Adoption Center! All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. **If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process.

Story
DOB: 6/10/2024  Maple Syrup is as rich and golden in spirit as her name suggests. This beautiful calico has been through a lot — she arrived at the shelter with a large abdominal wound — but with gentle care and time, she’s healed and is now ready to pour her sweetness into a forever home. Like real maple syrup, she doesn’t rush. Maple Syrup is a bit shy, preferring slow approaches and soft voices, but for those patient enough to earn her trust, she offers a quiet, comforting kind of love that sticks with you long after the moment has passed. She’s looking for someone who understands that the best things in life take time — a calm home, kind hands, and a heart ready to let her sweetness flow. If you’re willing to move at her pace, Maple Syrup just might be the sweetest thing to ever come into your life.  Come meet me at the cage-free Adoption Center! All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. **If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process.
