Story
Hi, I`m Pixel! I am a five-month-old calico girl, and I currently run the logistics department for my brother, Domino, and me. We operate out of our foster room because the rest of the house hasn`t cleared our strict security protocol yet. Don`t let my shy nature fool you, though—I have perfect etiquette. I am an absolute litter box champ and have never missed a beat!Summary of Personality: I am a total professional when it comes to entertainment, specifically specializing in batting the plastic ball around my three-tier tower. When our humans try to pick me up, I will politely tolerate it, though my face will look like you just broke a sacred treaty.My absolute favorite things in the world are snacks, my brother, and other cats! Whenever my foster family`s resident cats walk into our room, I absolutely adore them. Because I`m a bit timid, I’ve only met adults and teenagers so far, so I`d thrive best in a quieter home with older kids or no kids at all.Domino is my ultimate security blanket, so we must be adopted together. We are looking for a forever home that will meet us right where we are and truly understand shy cats. If you have a patient heart and want to watch us slowly bloom, apply to adopt us today!Is your foster litter box trained?: Yes

Story
Hey there, I`m Domino! I’m a five-month-old black-and-white tuxedo boy, and I am the muscle (and the style) of this operation. My sister, Pixel, and I are currently taking over the world, but we`re doing it very slowly—one room at a time.For the official paperwork: yes, I am a certified litter box champ! Cleanliness is next to godliness, after all.Summary of Personality: I might be a little timid at first around new humans, but if you shake a bag of Temptations, my bravery level instantly skyrockets. I love batting toys across the floor, and if you pick me up, I will hang there politely, even if I secretly think it’s undignified for a cat of my stature.My secret passion? Making feline friends! I completely adore the resident adult cats in my foster home whenever they drop by. Since I am still building my confidence around people, I’ve only hung out with adults and teenagers, meaning a peaceful home with older kids or an adults-only crew would suit me best.I never go anywhere without my sister, Pixel. We look to each other for courage, so we need a patient forever family that understands shy cats and is ready to meet us exactly where we are. If you have room in your heart and home for a bonded pair, come meet our duo!Is your foster litter box trained?: Yes

Story
Hi everyone, my name is Heather. My brother Kevin and I at the shelter about a month ago. We were both pretty sick and went into foster care to get better. My brother and I are all better now. We`re ready to find our forever home (s).Summary of Personality: I`m a sweet, but vocal girl that likes to cuddle. I love playing with other kittens, balls, and crinkle toys. I`m still getting used to wand toys. I do enjoy cuddling with my foster mom, but I definitely prefer to play. I have not been exposed to dogs or children yet. I would do best in a home with older children and another kitten or a friendly older cat I can play with. I eat both wet and dry food. I’d love to have a scratching post and/or cat tree to scratch and climb. I`m also litter box trained.Is your foster litter box trained?: Yes

There are two. They are sisters. They fight a lot but only with each other. They play together too. I’m moving and the landlord had a pet limit. One of the recently began spraying in the house and I do not know why. Azula is a great hunter. Would like them to both go to one adopter.

Story
Elsa and Anna have the same mother but are from different litters, it would be ideal if they could be adopted together. They are sweet indoor cats and love to be petted and enjoy cuddling (on their terms), but they don't like to be held necessarily. They have been around our two dogs; Elsa is much more desensitized to them than Anna is. We would love to see them go to a home where they can be given love and attention, we would like to include their cat tree and automatic litter box.

Story
Meet General — The Gentle Gymnast!General got his name from the gray-black coloring along his back, which makes him look like he’s wearing a little suit of armor. With his sturdy build and serious expression, he may look like one tough little guy — but he’s actually a marshmallow at heart.General is wonderfully gentle, mellow, and affectionate. Pick him up and he’ll happily settle against you, content to stay close and soak up all the attention.And here’s the fun surprise: this chunky boy is also quite the little gymnast! He loves to climb and tumble and is much more nimble than his solid build would suggest.He’s playful without being overly rambunctious, with a calm, easygoing nature. And when food appears, all that composure disappears — General is usually the first one racing over for dinner!Strong-looking on the outside, soft and cuddly on the inside, General is a gentle big boy with a sweet nature, a playful streak, and a serious love of food.
