Story
Jaxon and Teddy Bear are a feline pair who came to CVHS when their owner went into a nursing home. Being older gentlemen, they seek a calmer home to live out their golden years. Relatives who knew these felines were unable to take them in as these cats do not want to live with dogs. Both boys can be bashful, and move about their colony room quickly and stealthily. They are only familiar being indoors-only, and have not been exposed to other felines, canines or children. Based on their personalities we have seen here; they would appreciate a home free of dogs and children. We believe with proper introduction, they could live with another senior feline like themselves, and we do feel they would enjoy going into a home together.

Story
Lily came to CVHS when her owners were moving and unable to take her with them. She is a delightful and charming cat with a big, bold purrrsonality! She is an affectionate girl who asks for attention by rubbing on your legs and enjoys being petted. Just like any strong-willed kitty, Lily has her boundaries. She’s a smart girl who knows how to communicate her needs, and she’ll let you know if she’s had enough. She has lived with felines in the past, and has tolerated them here as long as they don`t get in her space. She does not have any experience with young children, and due to her getting overstimulated, should not go to a home with children. Lily has had some brief exposure to canines and seems to be afraid of them, so would need a home without them.

Story
Olive came to CVHS when her owner lost their housing. When it comes to relationships, she`s very level-headed. She doesn`t leap in paws first, if you know what I mean. But give her a little time, and then she`ll shower you with purrs, head-butts, and plenty of lap time. She is also a cat that will definitely let you know when she has had enough attention. We have yet to have a cat that we could test with Olive, but in her previous home she did live with another feline, and did not enjoy her company. Due to her age and personality, no young children or canines please.

Story
Miracle came to CVHS when her owner was no longer able to care for her. She is an outgoing girl who has spent the last couple of years being an indoor cat, but prior to that she was a stray. Due to her personality and prior outdoor experience, we feel she would be happiest being an indoor/outdoor cat. This outgoing, affectionate girl has done well with everyone she has met so far, and did well with everyone she met in her past life, including children visitors. She was also exposed to both canines and felines and did well with them, so it would be fine to go home with them as long as a slow introduction is done.

Story
Cleo came back to CVHS after 11 years with her beloved adopter, when he passed away from cancer. Her person, Morgan, was very well known in the community, and even when working hard to advocate for stable housing for all, he made sure to share his love of Cleo with everyone he met. She was the apple of his eye, and she got him through some tough times. Cleo is now in need of a new home, but she isn’t going to fit in just anywhere; she needs a special place. Cleo needs to be the only pet in the home, and she needs someone with great patience, and understanding not to push her buttons. She wants attention and affection on her terms, and will not hesitate to smack you if you push past her boundaries. She did spend time with Morgan’s granddaughter, and never misbehaved, but we feel strongly she should not live with children. She spent many happy hours warming Morgan’s lap, and though it may take her a little time to adjust to a new home, a lap is probably what she’ll love the most.When Cleo first came to us, she was clearly grieving the loss of Morgan, and it took her a while to start eating again, and even longer to seek attention from staff. Now when we enter her room, she comes out from wherever she`s made herself comfortable (in a crate, under a blanket, under the bench), and rubs around our legs, and happily accepts gentle pets.Cleo also needs someone to help her with weight loss, as well as making sure she gets her meds in her meals of wet food each day. She has arthritis pain, and gabapentin is helping her with that, as well as with her anxiety.The other major quirk of Cleo’s is that she is aggressively reactive to vet care and forced confinement post-surgery (she’s had multiple dental extractions), so precautions need to be taken when she needs to go to the vet. We can discuss that in detail with potential adopters.
