Story
I am Drake. I am soft and independent but I will be near you always. I prefer floors and window sills to sit in when you are in the room but I also love your lap or the high back of the chair behind you when you’re relaxing. I like to be pet but not a ton. I am good for three to five minutes but then I just want to be by you and sleep or watch out the window. I meow at meal time to let you know I’m ready for food. My owner likes to say I sing for my supper. I like to run to the bowl excited to eat. I have sharp claws good for catching birds as I am an indoor / outdoor cat but I am missing a few teeth. The dentist got me during a check up after I was rescued but don’t worry, I eat just fine. I can live in a house with other cats but know that I’m curious and will stick my nose in their business ( and food) but when confronted, I’ll run away. I’m a bit of a baby that way. It would best though to be your one and only. I’ll keep you good company.

Story
This is Mya. Mya has been the softest, sweetest, most lovable cat I have ever owned. She is about 4 years old. She purrs when you pet her, loves to sit on your lap, and is also litter box trained and goes indoors and outdoors. Outside she rolls in the sun and will grab small mice and rodents. She is quiet and patient when she waits for food and is the perfect companion who only wants one pet. Unfortunately I have another dominant cat that attacks her and scares her and he is more difficult to re home. Mya needs a quieter loving owner who wants a low maintenance easy to love cat. She really is nearly perfect. I just cannot keep her here with my other cat who keeps attacking her. You are getting a gem of a feline here. She is pretty much perfect.

Story
Zelda was born I believe around October 2018. She has had regular vet checkups, vaccines, etc. we did have her front nails removed due to having an organ transplant human in the house and wanted to eliminate risk of cat scratches. Our vet agreed with this decision. Because of this Zelda has only ever been an indoor cat and should remain one. She accidentally got outside once and was very frightened. Over the years she has stopped using the litter box and will only go on dog pads. We’ve tried everything the vet and online chats recommend and she hasn’t changed her mind. She shares the house with our other cat and they get along fine. She does not like dogs at all! She is a very large cat around 20lb. She doesn’t groom well so we shave her in the summer and she loves it. We need to focus on a disabled grandchild and can’t be cleaning the floor all the time. Please care for her. ❤
