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. 🍜💕

Story
This handsome 4-year-old black cat has come a long way in the seven months he’s been in foster care. When he first arrived, everything felt overwhelming—he spent his first few weeks perched on top of a dresser, just watching the world from a safe distance. With time, patience, and a steady routine, he’s grown into a confident cat who now roams the house and likes being part of daily life. He’s the kind of cat who picks his people. He may take a little time to warm up—and might even give a cautious hiss to new faces—but once he trusts you, he’s all in. He tends to bond especially closely with men and would love a home where he can be someone’s loyal sidekick. In his foster home, he does well with female cats but would prefer to be the only male. He’d do best in a calm, predictable home with someone who understands that trust takes time and lets him move at his own pace. He has been diagnosed with FIC, a stress-related urinary condition, so a stable, low-stress environment is really important for him. He’ll do best in a home where someone is around most of the time and doesn’t travel often, since changes in routine can be hard on him. The good news is that with consistency and care, he’s already made great progress. Once he feels safe, his sweet side really comes out. He loves stretching out in a sunny spot and is a big fan of belly rubs—when he’s in the mood. He’s also got a little personality and won’t hesitate to let you know when he’s missed you. If you’re looking for a loyal companion and are willing to give him the stability he needs, he’ll return it with affection, character, and plenty of cozy moments in the sun.

Meet Sav Blanc 🥂🐾 Sav Blanc is a fearless little adventurer with enough curiosity and energy to keep life very interesting! This boy is always on the move, and if there's something new to investigate, or somewhere higher to climb, he's already on his way. Sav absolutely loves climbing and exploring new heights, so don't be surprised if you find him somewhere you didn't realize a kitten could reach. He'll happily chase a wand toy or laser pointer, too, especially if it gives him another excuse to zoom around the room. 😂 For all his adventurous energy, Sav Blanc has a very sweet and affectionate side. He's happy to stop for some pets and attention, but don't expect him to stay put for long. His cuddles come with a time limit because there are adventures waiting! He'll happily soak up some affection and then suddenly decide it's time to be off again. Sav is the perfect kitten for someone who wants a companion who will keep them laughing, keep them moving, and keep life exciting. He's curious, confident, affectionate, and absolutely convinced that every corner of the world deserves to be explored. If you're looking for a kitten with the bravery of an explorer and the energy of a tiny acrobat, Sav Blanc is ready for his next adventure. 🥂✨

Meet Riesling 🐾💛 Riesling is a sweet, gentle boy with an absolutely adorable little kitten frown that is made even more charming by his black lips and tiny black toe beans. He always looks just a little concerned about something... and honestly, we're pretty sure his biggest concern is whether you're about to get horizontal so he can claim his rightful spot. 😂 Riesling is a calm and easygoing guy who doesn't need to be in the middle of everything. When you're up and about, he may quietly make himself scarce, happily doing his own thing. But the moment you lie down? Game over. Suddenly, Riesling appears and makes his way straight to your chest, where he settles in for a cozy snooze like he has an important appointment with you. 🥹💕 He's the kind of kitten who doesn't demand constant attention, he simply waits for the perfect opportunity to quietly sneak in and become your personal chest warmer. With his sweet personality, adorable worried little face, and excellent instincts for finding the coziest possible spot, Riesling is ready to turn your couch (and your chest) into his forever home. 🐈💤
