Story
Ceaser is a Cryptococcus survivor. He was treated for the fungal infection as a kitten and is now healthy.    He does have a mild neurological condition that makes his back legs a little wonky, but honestly it just makes him extra entertaining. When he gets excited or is playing, he sometimes just tips right over. It’s actually pretty adorable.   Because of his condition, he occasionally needs a little help grooming his back end, which is why he’s currently sporting a shaved haircut after getting a few mats. With regular brushing and a little assistance, his fluffy coat can stay looking great.   Personality-wise, Ceaser is a blast. He’s playful, silly, and full of life. He has previously lived in a home with dogs and kids and absolutely loved the dogs. He can also get along with other cats with a proper introduction. ##2661742##

She’s a good cat but needs to be around people, and with my new job I don’t have enough time at home for her.

Story
Meet Mika, a beautiful five-year-old tabby with a gentle heart and a soft, sensitive spirit 🐾💛 Mika is the kind of cat who just needs a little time to feel safe before showing her true colors. Loud sounds and busy environments can make her nervous, so she would do best in a quiet home with no other animals where she can relax and settle in at her own pace. Once Mika feels comfortable, her sweet personality really shines. She enjoys attention, gentle affection, and of course a few tasty treats from her favorite people. The bond she forms with her trusted humans is special. She’s the kind of companion who rewards patience with genuine love and loyalty. Mika will need an adopter who understands that the first days in a new home may be a little overwhelming for her. With kindness, calm surroundings, and a little patience, she will blossom into a devoted and affectionate companion. Mika has been spayed, microchipped, and is current on vaccines and flea prevention. All New Leash cats must be strictly indoor and may not be declawed. Mika’s adoption fee is $50. If you have a peaceful home and a heart for a cat who just needs a little extra understanding, Mika is ready to find the safe, loving forever home she deserves 🐱✨
