Story
Pickles is a sweet and charming three y/o lil gentleman. He used to be barncat and while not feral, is very skittish. But with a gentle touch, he'll show you all the love and charm he has to offer. He loves to be pet, held, and cuddled. Also has serious doll eyes. You can just pick just him up and show him whatever. Emily's laders. This guy has been my lil dude for the last year. I'm blessed to have adopted him and have also realized he needs much more attention and stimulation than I have capacity for at the moment. He will come with his automatic food and water dispensers.

Story
Meet Gracie 👑 Gracie is a 14-year-old sweetheart with a big personality and an even bigger heart. She’s incredibly affectionate and loves to share her opinions—especially when it’s breakfast or dinner time! If you enjoy a chatty companion who will happily keep you company, Gracie will fit right in. This lovely senior would do well in a calm home, and may be okay with cat-savvy children who understand and respect feline boundaries. Gracie prefers to be the queen bee, so a home without other pets is ideal for her to feel secure and confident. Gracie is currently available through our Special Medical / Hospice Adoption program. She has several age-related conditions, including hyperthyroidism, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and dental disease. She is medically stable and receiving ongoing care, including medication for her thyroid and a prescription renal diet to support her kidney health. With close partnership with a veterinarian and thoughtful monitoring, many cats like Gracie can continue to enjoy comfort and a good quality of life. While her lifespan may be more limited due to her chronic conditions, Gracie has so much love left to give. She would thrive in a peaceful, supportive home with adopters who are comfortable providing ongoing medical care, regular check-ins with a vet, and—most importantly—lots of affection. If you’re looking to make a meaningful difference in a senior cat’s life and are ready to open your heart to a special soul, Gracie would love nothing more than to spend her golden years cherished and adored. 💕 Gracie is in our special medical adoption program. If you are interested in meeting her, please complete an adopter’s profile at parl.org and email clinic@parl.org to set up a meet and greet.

Story
Meet Nikki 🖤 Nikki is truly one of a kind. This shy but sweet girl prefers to take things at her own pace and appreciates having her space respected. She would do best as the only cat in a quiet, adult only home, where she can feel safe and secure while settling in. With time, patience, and a calm environment, Nikki really shines. Once she’s comfortable, she shows her affectionate side and reveals just how much of a sweetheart she is, complete with the cutest little meow. She also LOVES to play! She will need a slower transition period to feel at ease, but the reward is a gentle, loving companion who bonds deeply with her person. Nikki is looking for a patient adopter and a chill, low key home where she can decompress and truly be herself. For someone willing to give her the time she needs, Nikki will be a very special and loving friend. 💕 ⭐ If you’re interested in adopting, please fill out an adopter profile at www.parl.org/adopt and stop by during our open hours! ⭐
