The descriptions and photographs of this animal are provided by the animal’s guardian; the animal has not been evaluated by AHHS and is not an AHHS animal. Adoption processes and fees are at the sole discretion of the pet’s guardian. AHHS makes no claims as to the health or temperament of these pets and cannot be held liable for any outcomes or damages resulting from adoption.   About Autumn:  Autumn is a very loving, gentle cat in need of a home where she can get a lot of attention. She is quite needy and enjoys rubbing herself on her chosen human. She likes face rubs and has a high maintenance coat. It sheds year-round, meaning regular brushing is mandatory. She likes small pets but will gently let you know when it's enough. She likes to be close to other people. She is a very beautiful cat. She has a sensitive stomach and will tolerate Iams kitten nuggets (purple bag), and Purina or Sheba pate. She is even-tempered. She is fine around other cats. She is easily startled, especially by loud noises and sudden movements. She would do best in a quiet, calm home.  May 2, 2025, 3:38 pm

Individuals interested in adopting a puppy are STRONGLY encouraged to download and read this FREE ebook. Even if you've raised puppies in the past, this is an invaluable resource to help make your new addition successful!   Behold the majestic presence of Brandi, a 7-year-old tuxedo queen with the poise of a duchess and the stare of someone who absolutely knows you ate the last treat. She is full of sass, class, and just a touch of cat hair. She has opinions about everything; mostly about when dinner should be served. With her plush gray coat, white-tipped paws, and those golden eyes, Brandi is the kind of cat who doesn’t just walk into a room — she arrives. Friendly and full of personality, Brandi is always down for a chat (or a passive-aggressive glare, depending on the mood). She’s not clingy, but she will follow you from room to room like a glamorous little shadow — supervising, judging, and occasionally blessing you with head bumps if you’ve earned them.  Brandi is spayed, vaccinated, litter box trained, and carries herself with the confidence of someone who has never once questioned if she’s the main character. (Spoiler: she is.) Brandi has mastered the art of the slow blink, the dramatic flop, and the “I love you but not that much” stare. She enjoys chin scratches, being admired from a distance, and walking into the room like she owns it. (She does.) Brandi believes she's adopting humans, not the other way around. If you'd like to be adopted by royalty, apply online at ahhumanesociety.org/cat-adoption-application/ or email Halee@ahhumanesociety.org with any questions!  May 2, 2025, 2:32 pm

We have loved this cat from the second he joined us at the AHHS. He has a sad story; his owner passed away. We wish his late owner knew what joy he brings us and will bring to a new family! Macaroni is the epitome of a lap cat. He wants to be with you every second of every day. He's also vocal, almost like he's trying to converse with you. Macaroni is 7 years old but is still quite spry. To our knowledge, he was an only cat. He would likely prefer to remain your one and only but could always be tested with other cats (and dogs).  As you can see in his photos, he's got personality for days. He is nine pounds of fluff that is sure to make your days brighter. He deserves a family that will love him for the rest of his days. Interested in meeting? Please apply at https://ahhumanesociety.org/cat-adoption-application/ or email Halee@ahhumanesociety.org with any questions! April 2, 2025, 12:17 pm

Story
Meet Georgina, a beautiful feline with a heart full of love and a little extra care in her daily routine. Diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD), Georgina doesn’t let it slow her down! She doesn't even require medication—just a carefully chosen kidney-support diet packed with the right vitamins and nutrients to keep her feeling her best. Georgina spends her days lounging in sunbeams, chasing the occasional toy, and reminding her humans when it’s time for her favorite kidney-friendly meals. With a little extra TLC and the right food, she continues to live a happy and comfortable life, proving that even with CKD, a cat can still be full of energy, affection, and love.
