Story
Hi there, I’m Joseph,I can be a bit nervous at first — new faces and new places make me pause and take it all in. I’m the kind of cat who watches quietly from a safe spot until I’m sure everything feels just right. But once I warm up, I really warm up. I turn into a devoted little shadow, following you from room to room just to see what you’re up to. I love gentle pets, soft blankets, and curling up as close as I can get. When I trust you, I’ll nuzzle your hand, give sweet head boops, and purr like a tiny motor. I’m curious, affectionate, and happiest in a calm home with someone patient and kind. Give me a little time, and I’ll give you my whole heart — plus plenty of cuddles to go with it.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES...CHILDREN: I could be a good match with respectful children.OTHER CATS: I could be a good match with a cat after a proper introduction.DOGS: I could be a good match with a dog after a proper introduction.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME...FIRST TIME CAT OWNERS: Yes.ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium.If you think I could be a good match for your home, please click the `Adopt Me` button to apply!

Story
Hello, I’m Spookie!I like to take my time getting to know new places — quietly watching, carefully stepping forward, and then, once I feel brave, exploring with sweet little sniffs and tiny paw taps. The world fascinates me, especially when I get to discover it at my own pace. When I feel safe, I’m all about warm snuggles and soft purrs. I’ll curl up close, rest my little head near you, and simply enjoy being together. Calm moments are my favorite. If you’re ready for a kind, curious little companion who will bring warmth and gentle joy into your home, I could be the perfect match for you.

Oh hello there, I’m Ronin!I’m a watchful fellow who prefers to tuck myself away here at the shelter. But if you sit near me, respect my space, and have some patience, I’ll be bunting your hand and asking for more pets in no time! I’m just a sweet boy who’s still learning the people and hands are safe. Once I’m settled into my very own home, I’ll come out of my shell. Then watch out! My handsomeness will surely blow you away.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES... CHILDREN: Respectful teenagers would be fine, but young children might make me nervous.OTHER CATS: I could be a good match with a calm and respectful cat after a proper introduction. DOGS: I could be a good match with a calm, cat-savvy dog after a proper introduction. SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME... FIRST TIME CAT OWNERS: Possibly, even better if you have some experience with shy cats.ACTIVITY LEVEL: Low-medium.

Story
Hi there, I’m Blythe!I’m a sleek and beautiful black cat that can be pretty shy. But once I get comfortable and feel safe, I’m affectionate and LOVE to be on your lap! While I’m a major sweetie personality-wise, my new family should know that I do have some medical matters: I have a history of eating things I shouldn’t (like tinsel), and I sometimes won’t go to the bathroom for 2 or 3 days at a time. I can be a bit nervous with formal handling and I need a family who can diligently monitor my litterbox usage—I would be a great match for an RVT, vet student, or someone else that has medical experience with cats!MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES... CHILDREN: I could be a good match with older, respectful children. OTHER CATS: I could be a good match with another cat after a proper introduction. DOGS: I could be a good match with a dog after a proper introduction. SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME... FIRST TIME CAT OWNERS: No, I need someone who has experience with cats and will know how to best monitor me for signs I’m not well.ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium If you think I would make a good match for your home, please click the `Adopt Me` button to apply!
