Story
I acquired Carl with his brother, Rory, from the same litter when a stray in the neighborhood got pregnant. He is now 6 years old and much larger than he was when I got him (around 17 lbs). He is super snuggly and clingy, and wants to be wherever you are. He loves to meet new people but is cautious about other animals (he always comes around though). He is good with dogs, usually ignoring them unless they are over friendly, in which case he will run away. He loves ranch, yogurt, and watching TV.

Story
Purcy is a gentle, sweet natured cat who would do best in a calm, patient home. He enjoys a mix of indoor comfort and outdoor time and is happiest when he can come and go at his own pace. He gets along very well with other animals, including cats and dogs, and would be a great fit for a home with existing pets. Purcy is shy with people at first but is never aggressive. He shows affection in quiet, subtle ways. He is an excellent mouser and very independent during the day. At night, when the house is quiet and he feels safe, he will sneak in for cuddles and curl up close, often when he thinks no one is watching. With time and patience, his gentle and loving personality really comes through.

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.
