Story
Luna is a 3-month-old bundle of love with the sweetest personality and the perfect mix of playful and cuddly. She’s outgoing, social, and absolutely adores everyone — dogs, cats, kids, and grown-ups alike. Luna is doing great with potty training, sleeps through the night in her kennel without accidents (and without barking!), and is already showing what a smart, eager-to-please girl she is. She has those adorable puppy bursts of energy but is just as happy curling up in your lap for snuggles after playtime. Based on her current size, we expect Luna will grow into a beautiful medium-sized dog. Luna would thrive in a loving home where she can continue learning, playing, and being part of the family. She’s ready to give endless tail wags, kisses, and companionship to her forever people. Adoption fee for this cat includes FVRCP vaccine, FIV/FELV testing, spay/neuter surgery, deworming, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate) wellness vet visit, one month of pet insurance and microchip. All animals are examined by a veterinarian. Please fill out our application at https://gkarma.wufoo.com/forms/good-karma-pet-rescue-cat-adoption-screening/ if you are interested in meeting or adopting this cat and we will be in touch right away!

Story
I recently have had changes to work situation as well as medical leaving him at home for 10 plus hours now. It’s not fair to him and he deserves someone who can be there for him more. He is good with kids, very sweet, house trained and crate trained. He is very quiet, he rarely if ever barks and is good for cuddling.
