Story
Meet April — A Gentle Heart in Search of Her Forever Home. April’s story is one of quiet transformation. When she first arrived at our sanctuary as a tiny springtime kitten, she was shy and uncertain, unsure of the world around her. But with time, love, and patience, this beautiful girl has blossomed into a sweet, tender companion — now she just needs the right home to complete her journey. April is a soft soul who thrives in the company of other calm, gentle cats. She absolutely adores snuggling with her feline friends, often curling up in a cozy pile for warmth, comfort, and companionship. She feels safest and happiest when she has a calm kitty companion by her side — and for that reason, we would love to see her adopted with a trusted shelter friend she already knows and loves. With people, April is shy at first — but once she trusts you, she enjoys gentle pets, quiet snuggles, and will reward your patience with soft purrs and affection. She isn’t a bold, outgoing cat, but she is incredibly loving in her own peaceful, steady way. Watching her bloom into a confident companion will be one of the most rewarding experiences for her future family. April’s Info: Born approximately 3/1/2024; Sleek black coat; Spayed; Up to date on vaccinations; Tested negative for Feline Leukemia and FIV; Flea-treated, dewormed, and healthy. April will do best in a calm home where she can continue to blossom at her own pace, surrounded by understanding people and maybe even a snuggly feline friend. She’s waited so patiently for someone to see the beauty and love she has to offer. Could that someone be you? Apply to meet April today: https://www.catsanctuaryashland.org/adoption-application

Story
Since we're celebrating #internationalrescuecatday all week, let's get international, and talk about a big purring machine, Bugatti! Just like his namesake, our Bugatti is sleek, gorgeous, and fun. He is a sweet boy who loves to hang out with you, and loves it even more when you stop and pet him (but he is always the gentleman and waits for you to be ready- no bopping until you drop something here!) He and his sister were left in the Hedstrom parking lot last year, and ever since he has come into the shelter, he has been a favorite of everyone- always happy to see you, and always a lovely companion. At almost 13 pounds, he is solid love, and at just over a year and a half, he is content to sit with you and while away the day. Bugatti has also: -Tested negative for Feline Leukemia/FIV; -Received his vaccinations; -Been neutered; -Been treated for fleas and worms; and -Had a negative fecal test. The balance of his vaccinations are included in our adoption plan. If you are looking for a big ol' lover of a cat, Bugatti is your man! Who needs a European race car in the garage when you can have a European race car-named cat in your lap!

Story
Meet Bolognese! Bolognese is a female, short hair grey tiger with an estimated DOB of 5/8/2021. Bolognese and her sister Pesto have been with us about a year and a half. These sweet girls started off a little on the shy side which is probably the only reason some lucky family hasn't snatched them up already. They may need a little time to settle into new surroundings, but these girls would most certainly bring joy to a new family. Both of these ladies love the laser pointer and would do just about anything for their Temptation Puree treats! Sister Marinara has already found her forever home, now it's time for her sisters to do the same. Both sisters are spayed, tested negative for feline leukemia/FIV, fully vaccinated, wormed, fecal tested negative, flea prevention. If you think your home might be right for Bolognese, Pesto, or maybe both please fill out an application today! Https://www.catsanctuaryashland.org/application
