Looking for an Extraordinary Home for an Extraordinary Little Cat This special cat needs more than an adopter... he needs a person who will be his person. Hiker is about one year old, incredibly affectionate and completely in love with people. He is also deaf. Everyone who meets him falls for him and the feeling is mutual, he has never met a stranger. He wants to be close to people, involved in whatever they are doing and part of everyday life. Getting a bite to eat can be challenging with him, because he believes he should be eating with you. He did have a difficult start in life and his foster mom says that if you imagine a fearless toddler who has survived a stroke, who can not hear you, you will get a slice of what he is like. "Derpy",is accurate but incomplete. He approaches the world with optimism and curiosity with absolutely no awareness that he has limitations. It's equal parts inspiring, hilarious, and terrifying! He doesn't realize that he can't hear danger. He doesn't always make the safest decisions. He depends on the people around him to notice what he can't - there may also be some vision challenges that may or may not resolve. He depends on the people around him to notice what he can't (there may also be some vision challenges that may or may not resolve. Because of those things, he needs someone who sees his care as a privilege rather than a burden. In foster-care it was determined he needs to be the only pet in a home- he startles at every turn. He needs someone patient and attentive, who can provide a predictable routine and understands how consistency helps him feel safe and thrive... and ideally works from home. When alone he meows nearly non-stop, until he falls asleep, and since he doesn't hear himself he meow's louder and louder... he prefers not to be alone. He is good wearing a harness, riding in a pet seat and doesn't mind a carrier, much. He may be great as an adventure cat but he would always need a thoughtful handler who understands that his confidence far exceeds his judgment. Not hearing puts him at a very high risk of being hurt outside and someone or something approaching from behind or unexpectedly entering his space can surprise him, so he needs a person who is always thinking one step ahead for him. He won't ever be the cat who can "figure it out". Our world wasn't designed for him so we are looking to find the person willing to design their world for him. There is no hurry. He is safe with someone who loves him, and is committed to finding his forever home. We are looking for a very special person who reads this and thinks, "I've been waiting for a cat exactly like him."

Tulip is a sweet, shy girl looking for a family thats willing to give her time to bloom. She takes awhile to warm up but when she does she becomes the sweetest girl. Tulip will greet you with chirps and flops, and will come lay in your lap when she's comfortable. Her love language is food, and churru is the way to her heart. Tulip also enjoys playtime and is a professional parkour practitioner as a hobby. She gets along well with other cats and dogs once she gets to know them.

Meet Noodle — Your New Favorite Little Weirdo! 🍜🐾 Noodle is a confident, curious little lady with a personality that is impossible not to love. She’s the kind of cat who wants to be wherever you are, following you from room to room and keeping you company throughout the day. At night, she settles in at the foot of your bed like it’s her official assigned sleeping spot. She may not always want to be snuggled, but she absolutely wants to be near you. And when you walk into a room or talk to her, she'll often make the cutest little startup noise, as if someone just flipped her internal ON switch. 🥹 Noodle is generally laid-back, but hand her a spring toy and she's suddenly an athlete. Springs are her one true obsession, and she's even pretty good at fetch! She'll bring the toy back roughly 50% of the time—which is honestly a respectable success rate for a cat. 😂 She has plenty of other quirks that make her extra special. Noodle dramatically flops onto her side to say hello, gets the classic evening zoomies around dusk, and absolutely loves butt smacks. She also has a serious appreciation for crunchy food and treats and is still just a little mouthy like a kitten. Noodle is wonderfully confident and curious. New person? She'll check them out. Something unfamiliar? She'll sniff it. She isn't afraid to meet strangers or investigate new things, making her such a fun companion. She has not yet had experience with dogs, cats, or children, so those relationships are unknown. She could absolutely thrive as an only cat, although the right feline companion could be a fun addition. A quieter home where she can get plenty of attention would be ideal, and older children may be a good fit. If you’re looking for a confident, quirky companion who will follow you around, chase springs, make adorable little noises, and keep life entertaining with her weird little habits, Noodle is ready to wiggle her way into your heart. 🍜💕

✨ Meet Luci! ✨ If there’s something new to investigate, Luci is already there. A new room? She’s exploring it. A new toy? She’s testing it. Something she probably shouldn’t be doing? Well… she’s probably doing that too. 😼 Luci is a brave, curious, and incredibly intelligent little girl who absolutely loves life. She’s very social and seems to believe that everyone she meets is a potential new best friend. She grew up with her two sisters, a brother, and five adult cats, so she’s very comfortable around other kitties. Her current best buddy is her sister Winnie, and these two would love to find a home together. 💕 This girl has ENERGY! She loves anything and everything she can play with and needs plenty of toys, activities, and opportunities to put that clever little brain to work. She’s the first one to investigate something new and is always ready for her next adventure. And when playtime is over? Luci is perfectly happy to switch gears and curl up for some serious snuggle time. She is incredibly sweet and absolutely loves being close to her people. 🥰 And then there’s Churu time. Churu is life. Churu is love. Churu is apparently worth doing anything for. 😂 Luci is the kind of kitten who will keep you entertained with her antics, make you laugh with her mischievous streak, and then melt into your lap like she’s always belonged there. She’s playful, affectionate, curious, and wonderfully outgoing — basically a tiny package of chaos, cuddles, and charm. ✨ Luci has not had any experience with dogs or children yet, but with her confident, outgoing personality, we think she could do well with respectful kids and/or a cat-friendly dog given the proper introductions and time to adjust. 💕

Meet Sarah! 🐾 Sarah is the definition of a perfect little tabby girl. She has that classic cat charm down to an art form and approaches life with a wonderfully easygoing attitude. She’s got major little-sister energy: whatever everyone else is doing, she’s probably happy to join in! Want to curl up and sleep with your people? Sarah is in. Want to wrestle with her sisters until everyone is completely exhausted? Also in. Is it mealtime? Absolutely. Sarah is not one to turn down a good meal, and her adorably round post-dinner tummy is proof that she takes her food very seriously. 😂 Sarah is a total sweetheart when it comes to affection. She’s happy to receive pretty much any kind of love and doesn’t mind being picked up. She’s naturally more laid-back than her sisters, but they definitely know how to bring out her wild kitten side. Put Sarah in the middle of a good sibling wrestling match and suddenly that mellow little girl has some serious zoomies! She loves both of her sisters equally and is wonderful with cats of all ages. She would be happiest with another feline friend in her forever home so she always has someone to nap with, play with, and get into a little trouble with. And she has one tiny fashion accessory that she never takes off: when Sarah walks, her right pinky toe sticks out just a little, making it look like she’s wearing a teeny tiny high heel. It’s the kind of little quirk you’ll notice once and then never stop looking for. 👠 Sarah would thrive in a home where she can be adored like the queen she is. Give her a cozy place to sleep, a feline friend to play with, plenty of affection, and regular meals, and Sarah will be one very happy girl.
