Story
Brief Bio:Billie has mild Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH), which gives her a cute, wobbly strut, but it doesn’t slow her down one bit. She gets around confidently, plays with enthusiasm, and uses her litter box like a pro. Her wobble just adds to her charm.Billie also has one eye, which only makes her even more endearing. Her name, Billie Eyeless, comes from her pirate-princess look and the bold, fearless personality that goes with it.To see more of Billie, visit her on instagram @fellowfostersSummary of Personality: Billie is a playful, curious kitten who knows how to have fun, but she also does great entertaining herself when you’re busy. She’s independent enough to hang out on her own, yet social enough to thrive in a home with other friendly cats who can show her the ropes and share in her adventures.She loves gentle pets and will immediately reward you with her big, rumbling purrs. Once she bonds with you, she makes sure you know just how special you are to her. Billie is the perfect mix of sweet, social, and delightfully quirky. She’s resilient, sweet, and full of life.If you’re looking for a kitten who is uniquely adorable, extra special, and guaranteed to make you smile daily, Billie is your girl. She is living proof that different is beautiful.Home Life (experience with kids & other pets, etc): Billie loved with other cats and a dog during her time in foster care. She get a long well, but slow introductions is always advised. She did not live with any children, but might do well with older children.Include any observations:With her CH, it is recommended she doesn’t have access to climb tall things as she may fall. And although she has mild Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH), Billie lives life just like any other kitten. she plays, explores, uses her litter box, and loves her people with her whole heart. Her little wobble only adds to her charm.

Domestic Shorthair

Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Brief Bio:Tortuga is a stunning tortoise shell female that is shy (especially hand shy initially) and needs time to trust new people and places in her life. All she wants is to be loved and a home that will show her what “permanent” looks like. She enjoys getting pets and love and purrs easily once she trusts you. If you are willing to meet her where she`s at and go slowly, she is going to shower with appreciation.Summary of Personality:Tortuga is quite the chatty girl. She meows to let you know she’s ready for attention, love, and of course…food and treats! She`s still nervous around new toys, sounds, and people but she`s come a long, long way in building her confidence! She loves to get pet and loved on. She can get a little mouthy if she`s over stimulated. Her new family will want to have her in a smaller area with no or very limited hiding spaces (like under a dresser or bed) until she gains her footing and confidence in her new surroundings.Home Life (experience with kids & other pets, etc):Tortuga absolutely adores the 2 resident cats who visit her room. She perks up instantly and follows them and rubs up against them. She would flourish with a feline friend but probably best with one that`s pretty chill, at least initially.She`s not been around dogs but a very mellow (smaller?) dog might be a fit with slow, proper introductions and monitoring. Tortuga is likely not well suited for a loud, active environment or smaller children.Include any observations of being house trained (or not):Tortuga uses the litter box in her foster home. Her new family will want to make sure she knows where the litter box is in her new home before giving Jett full house access.Is your foster litter box trained?:Yes

Story
Luci is a sweet, indoor cat and will never leave your side. She's very well litter trained, a little slow to warm (loves hiding under beds), but once you give her some scritches, she'll forget all her fears and become the most adorable lap cat. I got her when she was around 5.5 months old, got her to all of her vet appointments, and she's now about 3.5 years old and is such a beauty. She likes sleeping on my legs and looking out the window. She has the zoomies at around 8:30pm everyday before she settles for a long nap. Her new home hopefully has a lot of windows and high places to sit. She's never been in a house with other pets or children long-term. She keeps herself busy and away from whoever and whatever she is afraid of. For the kids who have pet her, it has always been under supervision. It's breaking my heart to part from her, as she has been my sole companion the past three years. The adoption fee will be used to set Luci up for success in your new home!

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Bubbles is a sweet, affectionate little guy who just wants love and attention. We found him as a kitten under our back porch in 2021, and he quickly became part of our busy household with three dogs and two additional cats. He bonded well with our other cats, but he was always frightened of the dogs, so we set up a system where the dogs stayed downstairs and the cats had their own safe space upstairs. Over the past four years, our older kids have moved out, along with the other upstairs cat. Now Bubbles spends most of his time alone upstairs, and he has become so lonely. We don't have the time to give him the companionship he needs, and our remaining kids at home aren't animal people. Bubbles deserves a home where he can be around people or other cats who will give him the affection he craves. We love him deeply and just want him to have the happy, social life he's meant to have.
