Story
Meet this sweet girl looking for her forever home. She is one of the gentlest cats you could ever meet. She has never bitten anyone and has never scratched anyone. She loves people and has a calm, loving personality. She was a stray that we found, and we wanted to give her the best chance at a happy life. We had her spayed, started her on her vaccinations, and had her microchipped so she would always be safe if she ever got lost. As much as we care about her, we just aren't able to keep her. She deserves a family who can give her the love, attention, and permanent home she needs. If you're looking for a kind, affectionate companion, she would make a wonderful addition to your family

Story
I took Chai and his brother, Earl in because their owner was going through financial hardship and wasn’t able to get them neutered or keep up with their veterinary care and vaccinations. She knew how much I love cats, although I hadn’t owned any for decades, and the cats I had then were mostly outdoor cats. I wanted to help care for them while they get re-homed.I started experiencing allergies. Allergy medication has helped, but I’ve realized that prolonged exposure significantly affects me and has increased my nasal drainage. As an interpreter, I rely heavily on my voice and breathing for work, so I have to be careful about anything that impacts my throat or respiratory health.They’re very sweet. Chai is timid & quiet. Earl is loud and confident, curious. They enjoy being petted. Both cats deserve homes where they can receive plenty of love and individual attention.This hasn't been an easy decision, I want what is best for them and for their long-term well-being.

Story
I am his second owner. He was abused as a kitten and that has left him skittish. He is scared of new people at first, but does adjust. He does not like to be picked up but loves snuggles. He has been around dogs and other cats. He is sweet, loves to play with toys, and sleep. I’ve had him for about 9 years. I’m unsure of his actual age. He is a chunky boy and will over eat if not careful. He is good around kids.

Story
Ivy is a sweetheart who was born with a short tail. She was my moms cat who has passed away. Ivy loves to lay at your head while she sleeps. she likes to play tag and jump out at you. she also likes to gives love bites. she is super funny. I'm not sure how she would react with children. in the past she hasn't gotten along with other cats or bigger dogs. she would thrive as an only fur baby in a quiet home who can dedicate their time to her. she's does great alone by herself. always willing to greet you at the door when you get home. I have a big dog and a small dog. she gets along great with the small one but isn't a fan of my bigger dog. she would ideally thrive in a home being the only pet. she is an indoor cat. she got out once for about 24 hours and hasn't cared to go back out. needs to be updated on vaccinations.

Story
Meet Miles. A funny and active boy with a big appetite and a love for snuggles and pipe cleaners. Miles is a true hunter and will chase after anything that rolls or slides across the floor. He’s super friendly and is not shy at all wanting to get to know every visitor of your home. Although a little hesitant at first, Miles loves to get to know dogs and other cats, and has never had issues with kids. Miles prefers a urinary diet for food. Before Miles entered my home, he belonged to an elderly couple as a kitten. They decided to rehome him due to them not being able to manage his active personality. With my equally as active son, I took Miles in. He’s been with us 5 years and has been a wonderful part of our lives. Unfortunately, a move and financial challenges have begun to be too much for our family to manage with Miles. He deserves a good home with love and care. Our hope is that we can find the best fit for him.
