Story
Rocky just turned 7! He has a laid back personality and would be the perfect companion for an adult owner or couple. He enjoys napping in different spots throughout the day. He likes to explore and see what is behind every door. Did you bring something new into the house? He will need to sniff it. He loves yarn and empty boxes, no need for fancy toys. He would be happy in a home where he is the only pet, as he does not get along with other cats/dogs (he grew up with a cat friend, but it was adopted out after previous owner passed away). He has not been around young children. He does well with older children that know to respect his personal space. He enjoys petting (loud purrs) and he will vocalize when he has had enough (long meow) instead of walking away as other cats do. Sometimes he’ll sit with you for hours enjoying human contact and sometimes he prefers a quiet spot to hide and pass the time. GREAT bug hunter! He is up to date on all of his shots, neutered and microchipped.

Story
Moose is a sweet boy who had been coming around for food. Was able to just pick him up and carry him inside. Vet says he is 2 -3 years old. He is a cuddle bug when it comes to people and he will follow you around the home. He does fine with other cats, have never seen him chase or swat at anyone. He loves to curl up on your lap and will watch you play video games quite happily. He is a bright and curious boy and a bit of a climber. He has started playing recently and is fairly vocal. Enjoys looking out of the window but has no interest in going back outside.

Story
Meet KeeKee – a 9-year-old, laid-back lovebug who has been a cherished member of our family for 7 years. Rescued from a tough start in life, she’s blossomed into a gentle, affectionate companion. Unlike most cats, she avoids counters and shelves, preferring cozy spots like couches and beds. While she’s not a fan of being held, she loves pets and if you level with her, she'll supply you with headbutts of affection. She’s low-maintenance, uninterested in toys, treats, or the outdoors. Her manageable health conditions include feline herpes (no longer contagious but occasionally sneezy, snotty & wheezy) & tooth resorption, requiring softened food. She’s well-behaved, fully house-trained, and has lived peacefully with our small dog. She thrives in calm environments and would do best in a stress-free home. Her unique quirks & sweet personality make her the perfect companion for someone seeking an easygoing, loving cat. If you’re her perfect match, let us know—we’d love to hear from you!

This adorable kitten is the cuddliest, goofiest, most friendly cat you will ever meet. Sweet and immediately down to be picked up or held, he just needs a loving home. He has FELV so I cannot keep him around my other animals and with twins on the way it is just not possible. Thank you for considering him

Story
Hi there! My name is Pepper, and I'm a 9-year-old domestic shorthair with a luxurious black coat that I like to think of as my crowning glory. I’ve had a bit of a rough time in life—I once had a home where I was showered with love (and a lot of cat food), but sadly, things didn’t work out. My owner fell ill, and had to say goodbye to me. It’s been tough, but I’m not giving up hope on finding a forever home. I’m a friendly girl who loves affection from my humans, though I’m a bit particular when it comes to my feline friends. I prefer to choose who I spend time with, and sometimes I’m a little picky about it. What I mean is that I want to be your one and only kitty. I have however chosen to love kids and dogs! I may be a bit on the chubby side (thanks to all the extra kibble!), but I’m working on finding a healthy balance—less kibble, more cuddles! I’m looking for a kind-hearted person who can show me that love comes in many forms—companionship, playtime, and gentle affection. If you're looking for a warm, loving companion who will snuggle up with you on the couch, then I might just be the one you’ve been searching for. Let's meet soon. I'll bet we're a purr-fect match! ##2261706##

Story
You haven't lived until you've had Buchla snuggling in your lap! He loves kneading/ "baking bread," purring, and all-around affection. He is bonded to his sister, Lex, and they are constantly snuggling (see photos). The pair is truly one of a kind. No health issues. No issues with biting or scratching. He is 7 years old. I have been fostering Buchla for about 1 year, and although I would love to keep him, I will soon start traveling full-time for work so it is not feasible. Bucha looks forward to hearing from you!
