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.

Story
Hello there! My name is Kit Kat but my foster mom calls me Kitt, Dot and, sometimes, Xena. I think it's because I have such a big cute personality that one name just won't do. I had a rocky start to life and was found all by myself when I was only a couple months old. That was in December & it was very cold but luckily a kind person took me inside. Fast forward and I'm a happy, beautiful tortie gal who likes to play, help around the house and after a day full of activity, I love to settle in and cuddle.

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.

Jacko is the most lovable cat who is all about his people and toys. He found himself out on the street until CAWS swooped in and got him all vaccinated, neutered & ready for his forever home. He uses a litter box like a champ and loves anything cat nip.He is living in a foster home in Vernal. Our fosters there are happy to work with applicants in the Salt Lake Valley to set up meet and greets.

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.
