Story
My neighbor alerted me to this stray kitten that had been hanging around on her porch and had had a litter of kittens some time ago. She thought she was pregnant again, but after a couple of months in rescue she was not. Mandy is very vocal with her expressions when she is hungry or just needs reassurance that someone loves her. She was already tamed and my neighbor was able to just hand her to me. She likes other cats and does well but pretty independent. She is much neater now than she was at first with learning her litter box. She no longer kicks the litter out of the box or lays in it any more. She would make an excellent friend for someone weather they stay home a lot or not. She like being inside in her room or in her big cage.

Story
Meet Phebe — A Loyal Girl Looking for a Quiet Forever Home ??Hi, my name is Phebe. I was surrendered to the shelter on October 1, 2025 after my person had to go into hospice care. For the past five years, it was just the two of us, and losing my home and my person turned my whole world upside down.When I first arrived, I was scared, confused, and very unhappy about everything changing. It took about two weeks before I felt safe enough to let the staff touch me. With patience and kindness, I finally began to trust again — and now they’ve discovered what a wonderful girl I truly am.I am spayed, up to date on vaccines, and ready for a new start. I need a quiet home with no other dogs or cats, just like I was used to before. I’m independent by nature and not big on affection unless I decide it’s time — but when I choose you, I choose you forever. ??I have a few quirks that make me unique:• I prefer to drink from a running faucet instead of a bowl• I love my Temptations treats in the morning• I’m a dry food only girl — no canned food for me!I may sound a little complicated, but I promise I’m worth it. Once I bond with you, I will be a loyal, loving companion who will always be by your side in my own quiet way.If you understand cats like me — cats with feelings, personalities, and dignity — then you may just be the person I’ve been waiting for.
