Story
i got them from Austin pets Alive they are great cats i love them but i can no longer take care of them, im getting kicked out of my home and ill either be homeless for a few months or possibly staying with a friend who hates cats and already told me they wouldn’t let me bring them if they did let me stay so im lookin for a suitable safe environment for them, this all happened out of the blue before i got the cats i thought everything was good but long story short my dad is on drugs and put our family in deep debt, and when i confronted him about it he felt like it wasn’t my place as his son and now he’s kicking me out

Story
Unfortunately, my boyfriend and I need to rehome my 1 year old kitty, Esdeath. She is a sweetheart, cuddle bug, and VERY active, and unfortunately moving out of state has stressed her and caused her to start acting out a bit. Nothing crazy, but she was properly kennel trained before the move, but now she has started to pee her bed during the night, even outside her kennel, and sometimes poops outside her litter box as well. She’s stressed from the new environment, and I don’t feel like I have the time to give her the full attention she needs anymore, so I’d love to find her a loving family that will welcome her and treat her well. She’s currently fed Purina One dry kitten food, and half a can of kitten wet food a day. She is uncomfortable around dogs but I’m sure she would warm up to them if she lived with them, probably will just hiss a bit. Never been around children, but she’s very gentle outside of playing.

Story
My pet is the sweetest cat I’ve ever met. She was so playful, funny, loving and so sweet. My cat was tested for FeLV and came out positive back in May of 2025. Unfortunately, the last 2 weeks she has not been herself. She has not been eating and is very lethargic. I took her to the vet and unfortunately I cannot keep up with her medical expenses. I would love to find her a loving home who is able to give her the best life possible.

Story
Loki is a 4 year old brown tabby mixed with Bengal, he is already neutered and microchipped it is $25 I believe to do a transfer of ownership through pet link,he isn't much of a lap cat , he also doesn't like being picked up and will run and hide but once he is comfortable with you he will come up to you and want pets,he has also been around dogs and other cats his whole life as well and would probably do well with other pets, he is overdue on his shots since I've been financially struggling and feel like he deserves better than what I can provide him. I will be asking for a $50 rehoming fee for him and will ask a lot of questions to insure he is going home with a good honest person who will love him and take care of him. The food he is currently eating is Nulo Kitten and Cat food all life stages cod and duck recipe, Loki has a sensitive stomach so any wet or dry food with pumpkin in it is a go to for him.

This is Yuna! Shes around 5 years old, I got her off Craigslist a few years back. Recently my allergies kicked up, I dont have alot of time to play with her recently and with the allergies im miserable when im around too long. I held out for 2 years thinking they would get better but they've gotten worse. Yuna would be much happier in a home with someone who can cuddle and play with her, shes sweet and affectionate, a bit shy at first but once she warms up to you very playful!

Story
Found him on the street early September 2025 and the people in the house nearby didnt know who he belongs to so I assumed that hes a stray and picked him up. Hes always been skittish and doesnt let us touch him, he would allow the tiniest of touches but then he would run away. Hes around 7 months old (as of January 2026). He is very playful and one of the cats taught him to talk to himself. He is using the litter box of course. Lately hes been getting on the kitchen counters and in my roommates plants and I cant get him to stop. We have other cats that we taught to behave, and with him being skittish and scared or us I cant teach him without getting him even more scared. We keep returning to a messy kitchen and we cant have this all the time with work and school. Looking for someone who has time to get him out of his skittish behavior. Also we would have to move by July 2026 (across state lines) and with him being scared we cant have him in the car like that.
