Story
Penelope is a laid-back, particular but sweet cat who values her space but also likes being near her person. She may not always want to cuddle or be petted, but she enjoys quality time and companionship. Her love languages are definitely food and quality time!She loves string, ribbon, boxes, toy balls, birdwatching, looking out the window, and sunbathing in her favorite sunny spots. She’s used to lots of toys, a water fountain, and cozy spaces where she can relax or hide when she wants alone time. She’s also drawn to pink things, so a pink bow is her signature.Penelope is used to a calm, quiet home with few people and takes time to warm up to new people and environments. She’s been with me for eight years, the majority of her life, so she’ll need a patient person who understands cat behavior and will give her time and space to adjust, build trust, and feel safe.

Story
Hi, meet Anas a loving cat that loves cuddles and hugs. He’s 5 years old. He loves to play while chasing the swifter mop or just laying down at my feet to watch TV together. He’s mostly an indoor cat but has gone outside in a park or yard for fresh air once in a while. He loves Tika cat food and will cooperate with grooming as long as treats are involved. He’s fun to play with but tires easily and loves a good nap together.

Comet is a very affectionate cat and is ok with love and attention from people. He does not like any other pets in his space. *MUST BE ONLY PET IN HOME* Comet is a vocal guy and very punctual when it comes to feeding times. He likes to nap in sun and moon light but also under blankets or beds. Comet is a great cat for a family that is looking to have just ONE pet to care for and love on. *Current family/owners are happy to continue paying 2 mos of Banfield OTP (Optimum Wellness Plan) after rehoming.

Story
Hi! This is Carl, he was rescued as a baby from an abusive situation. For the past five years, he has had a loving home. But we have multiple cats, and believe he would be much happier and have a better quality of life as an only cat. He is super sweet and affectionate and outgoing towards humans. I think that he would like a low stress environment. I am not charging to rehome him but I would like an interview or to get to know your situation!
