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
Davida is the shyest kitten in the house. She takes a lot of time to observe everything and everyone before she will get her paws dirty. She can be quickly charmed with treats and loves to play, once she feels comfortable. She would do best in a quiet, calm house. She does well with other cats and spends a lot of her free time finding new places to nap and new beds to make.

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.
