Story
Millie is a sweet girl with a lot of playful energy. She was dropped of on my street Christmas 2022 right before the snow storm. She was so small and hungry I took her in with the hopes of finding her a new home. And she ended up staying a year. She has been spayed and micro chipped. She is completely healthy but missing 2023 shots. She is so playful she loves being with my big tom cat and has been known to snuggle with my big dogs on occasion. She LOVES people. She follows me around the house all the time. Her favorite snack is anything you have in your hand. While she does not mind being with other animals and small children she does not like to be chased. My situation with one of my other animals has changed and I can not longer keep this bundle of fun. I would love to find her a home with people who aren't afraid of kitten energy. Who are looking for a a cat that wants to play and run around with you but also snuggle on the couch.

Story
Nancy was adopted in early 2015 when my daughter lived in Hawaii. While living there, she became aware of the feral cat population in the area and did her best to find loving homes for many kitties. She fell in love with all of them and brought them with her to her husband's next duty station state-side. When our daughter's marriage unfortunately ended, she and our grandson came to live with us in Nashville for the next 3 years. We already had 3 cats & a dog in addition to our daughter's cats so we ended up with quite a house full of animals. Due to medical problems, our daughter was not able to take her cats with her when she got a place of her own and it became too much for my husband and I to handle. We have found a good home for two of the cats and still need a loving home for Nancy as well as for Daisy. We love both these cats dearly and and desire to place them with people who will love and care for them. Please help us find a loving home for our cats.

Story
Marie, Daisy, Nancy, & Gigi were adopted in early 2015 when my daughter lived in Hawaii. She became aware of the feral cat population living there & did her best to find loving homes for all of these cats. That's how she got them all. She fell in love with them & when her husband received orders to come back to the mainland (he was in the Navy) she brought them with her to their next duty station state-side. When our daughter marriage unfortunately ended, she & our grandson came to live with us in Nashville for the next 3 years. We already had 3 cats & a dog. while living with us, she did take care of the cats. When she got her own place the agreement was the cats stay with us temporary. Due to medical problems, this was not possible for her. We can not be caregivers long term. 7 cats is just too much for us in our retirement years & it's unlikely my daughter will be able to care for them in the future. Its a drain on our financial, emotional, & physical resources.

Story
Luna came to me in desperate need of a foster. She was nervous for a couple weeks then completely came out of her shell. She loves to cuddle and talk. She was declawed previously before she came to me which may cause issues for her in the future but she does well now. She's a very funny and loving cat!
