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.

Toki I found near my house and brought him inside due to him being sick. He's super healthy now and I cant keep him inside. I rather not take him to the shelter. Would like to find him a good home.

Story
My mother Janet will be moving into an Assisted Living facility, and we must find a home for her cat Lucy, whom she adopted when she was a semi-feral kitten and who is not suited to the new living situation. As such, we must find a new home for Lucy. A beautiful tortoiseshell, she is not an easy cat, mostly due to the fact that she hides, hisses at new people and other animals, and she occasionally swats and scratches. Please keep this in mind as you consider whether she is a right fit for you. I promised mom that I would not send Lucy to a shelter or put her down—things I wouldn't want to do anyway, especially if there is a cat lover out there who has a track record of providing a loving home to more challenging cats. Please help make sure this already difficult transition a little easier by giving my mother the peace of mind that Lucy is going to a good home.

Story
Wilfred is a very active cat who needs an environment fit for his curiosity. He is very curious and loves to seek out every nook and cranny of his home or wherever he is. He loves heights and boxes. He will do well to be an environment that allows him to safely spend time outdoors and something like a cat door would be perfect for him. He needs someone who respects his needs and is patient. He loves snuggle time and making biscuits at night and lots of playtime and active time during the day!

Story
Meet Katie Kat. Katie Kat is a male though despite the numerous times we have told our daughter, hence the namesake. He is a very sweet boy, came to us from my cousins house in North Georgia after a stray had a litter of kittens. We have had him since he was weened from his momma. He has a heck of an appetite, frisky nature, and loves attention. Unfortunately we are unable to give him the amount of attention I feel he deserves. Recently I started working again rather than staying home with my kids and I fear it has affected our roles as pet owners. I would love to see him in a home where the owner could give him more attention and overall be more knowledgeable about cat care (as I have not been). He is great with kids, we have a small dog and another young cat whom we will be trying to rehome as well. Her name is Mango if anyone is interested in keeping the two together, though they are not from the same litter. Happy give give the supplies we have on hand to get someone started.
