Story
Phantom is an extremely sweet cat that loves to be snuggled and stroked and will thank you for your attention with his loud purr. As loveable as he is, he is also VERY playful and energetic. He absolutely loves to chase and wrestle with his brother, Leo, and anything that gets dropped on the floor is fair game to be made into a cat toy that he will chase around the house for hours. Because Phantom & Leo are bonded brothers, they must be adopted together. He has never been around dogs, but because of his curious and sweet nature, I think he would be fine with a friendly pooch pal that will be patient with a playful youngster. Phantom loves children and is great with them as long as they respect his playfulness. Whomever adopts Phantom & Leo should expect a lot of entertainment, laughs and loves from this sweet and fun guy.

Story
If you are looking for a big, beautiful, good luck charm who will bring love into your life - look no further! I am silky-soft and full of sweetness. I'm a confident boy who doesn't need to have the companionship of another cat around to make me happy, as long as I get to have your love! I don't mind other kitties as long as they don't mind me. I don't have any positive experiences with dogs so I would prefer living in a home without them since I think they are scary. I also would love older children to play with me who are old enough to be gentle with me.

Story
It's very nice to meet you, my name is Dillon aka Dill or Dillyman. I'm a very handsome, slightly older, gentleman and I'm looking for my furr-ever home where I can be the center of your attention. In addition to my good looks, there are few things you'll quickly notice about me: I'm a big solid cat and I have the best quirky tail you've even seen - it's short & bent but I wag it like a dog. I have been waiting to be adopted by just the right person (I can be a grumpy dude so they need to be cat savvy & let me have my space when needed) since the beginning of the pandemic when my human was forced to surrender me to CAWS when she could no longer care for me. I will come with a slow eater bowl because I like to gobble kibble, I enjoy being atop a cat tree and drinking from a water faucet along with lots of attention for loves & pets. I'm very selective about other cats, have never been around a dog & older children would be OK in my home.

Story
My name is Carlee!. I'm very curious & so smart! My foster mom often finds several cupboards & drawers open but I'll never tell her what I was trying to find. I really enjoy playing, especially chasing toys on a string with a human waving it around for me. You can always get my attention with catnip, it's simply divine, and cat treats! I am a lovely senior gal looking for my forever home with people that don't need a cuddly cat because, while I thoroughly enjoy pets, I'm not a snuggler. I live with other cats in my foster home but I'd really rather be an only cat so I hiss & grumble at them all the time.
