Story
Candace is a sweet female young adult kitty. She loves to cuddle and loves being held. She enjoys playing with other cats. She is very social and likes to be around other people and animals. I am overwhelmed with too much currently in my life right now. I am also going through medical problems. My health is not well. I need someone to Adopt this cat! She’s really sweet. I just cannot take care of her with my health being so bad.

Story
Meet Bilbo- a charming, long-haired orange tabby with a heart as big as his appetite. Equal parts sweetheart and tiny troublemaker, he’s always ready to curl up beside you for a cuddle… right after he’s finished zooming through the house. Playful and endlessly curious, he turns every shoelace, cardboard box, and dangling string into an adventure. His purr is loud, his head boops are generous, and his love language is following you everywhere like a soft, fuzzy shadow. But don’t be fooled by those innocent golden eyes — this clever little bandit has a talent for “borrowing” unattended snacks. One moment your sandwich is safe, the next it’s mysteriously missing… and he’s licking his whiskers. Sweet, cuddly, mischievous, and impossible not to love — he’ll steal your heart first, and your food second.

Sweet cat, can be skittish but will play easily and loves toys. Loves my golden retriever and wants to play with her more than my dog wants sometimes haha! Only rehoming due to personal disability issues and will miss Celeste so much.

Story
I found Lola when I moved into my house in East Ridge in very poor condition. She was malnourished and covered in scabs, and I've since paid for steroids, antibiotics, and standard vaccines for her. Despite showing progress, her skin still scabs, and she has a sneeze and a cough. I'm really worried about her health, and although I've put a lot of work and money into integrating her into our household, I unfortunately can't continue to pay for vet visits to try and figure out what's wrong. She is the sweetest cat in the whole world- she never says no to cuddles, loves to lick you, and never stops purring. The vet had trouble listening to her lungs because even turning the water on wouldn't get her to stop. She is seriously an angel, and I encourage whoever is reading this to consider adopting a senior cat who needs some help.
