Story
Pimento goes by many names; pimp, pimpy, pimple butt, stinky.. My husband and I adopted him and his sister Olive in late 2021. Since then we have had 2 children. Our youngest is allergic, and we have made the difficult decision to rehome them. Pimento and Olive have been together since birth, and we ask that whoever adopts him also adopts his sister. Be we are willing to separate them if necessary. Pimp had swimmers leg as a kitten, and still walks with a significant limp. X-rays have been performed and there is nothing wrong with his bones or muscular structure, and it does not seem to cause him any pain or discomfort. He is a happy boy that is super cuddly (once he warms up to you). He is the type of cat that hides when company is around, and comes out in his own time. His sister helps bring him out of his shell. His favorite thing is being picked up on his back like a baby and stretched backwards!

Story
Earl Gray was adopted from the Denton Shelter. He is approximately 3 years old, very sweet and loving. Unfortunately, he is fairly energetic and that doesn’t mesh well with my first cat, which is why I am rehoming him.

Hello! My name is Mable, my family can no longer take care of me but would like me to go to a good home. I LOVE to cuddle and be with people. Especially my owners. I am very social and friendly, even towards strangers. If you are looking for a cat to sit on your lap and sleep with you at night- we will love each other!

Story
Missy is almost 3 years old, was adopted in April 2025 from the Denton animal shelter. She’s a great cat, affectionate, playful, very clean, doesn’t scratch the furniture, minds very well. She loves to play, especially if you wave a toy on a string, she will happily run and jump around chasing it. She loves affection and being petted and will give you sweet love bites when you do it. She likes to sleep with you at night and generally likes to be around you or cuddle with you. Unfortunately, I have another cat, Wolfie, whom Missy doesn’t tolerate. Wolfie’s a sweet guy who tried his best to befriend her, but she rejects him, sometimes she hits him and he’s become miserable and depressed. She can’t stand him, and his presence stresses her as well. I never saw them fighting, but I keep finding tufts of hair when I get home from work. It breaks my heart, I really love her, but I think it’s better if Missy found another home. She’s a great pet, but maybe she should be an only cat.

Story
We rescued Olive and her brother Pimento in late 2021 as kittens. Since then my husband and I have had 2 children. My newborn seems to have an allergy to the cats (breaks out in hives) and we have made the difficult decision to rehome them. Olive has been with her brother Pimento since birth. We would like to ask that whoever adopts her, also adopt her brother. But we would be willing to separate them if necessary. She is the most sweet and social cat you will ever meet. She greets everyone who comes through the door as is they are her owner, and even sits on their lap! She loves when we allow her to go outside to roll in the grass and chase butterflies. She is great with young children, and would thrive in any household environment. She has never been around any other animals except her brother, so I cannot attest to how she would react around other pets.

Story
Meredith & Christina. Sister cats that have been together since they were born. I adopted them when they were 8 weeks old from a shelter in Plano, Texas. I adore them and I’m devastated to have to rehome them. They are amazing cats. They’re cuddly, Affectionate. They do well with children. They don’t love dogs, but are curious of them. Have absolutely never been outside. I don’t think they could survive being indoor/outdoor cats. Litter box trained. They will come with: 2 litter boxes(they have been using one but I have two), scoop/holder, water jug, bowls, big container with a month of food and two cat carriers. They are low maintenance, just happy to be near you. They have never had any health issues. We are relocating for my husband‘s job outside of the country and we cat take them with us. I want them to go to a good home. I don’t want them to go to a shelter get separated. Rehoming them is time sensitive. No adoption fee. I have lots of pic/vid just message me (405)568-6223.
