Meet Peanut, a sweet but shy boy who just needs a little time and patience to feel safe. Once he settles in, his gentle heart shines — he enjoys soft, reassuring pets and has been described by his previous owner as quiet, shy, and “affectionate and social with people.”Peanut is looking for a calm, stable home where he can truly blossom. Because of his past, he’ll need to be the only pet and would thrive with an experienced cat owner in a peaceful environment with older kids. With patience and love, Peanut will reward you with the sweetest companionship — a gentle soul ready to bond deeply with his person.

Ava is a sweet, sensitive adult female cat looking for a calm, understanding home where she can feel safe and flourish. She can be anxious in busy or unpredictable environments, so she’ll do best with a family that is home often and can provide gentle reassurance and routine. Ava prefers the company of adults and would be most comfortable in a quieter household. She must be the only cat in the home, as she thrives when she can have her space and her people all to herself. With patience, consistency, and love, Ava has the potential to become a loyal and affectionate companion.

Story
Meet Mongo! 🦖 Mongo was originally brought to us in a trap for TNR, but the moment we met him, we knew there was no way this sweet little guy was heading back outside. He made it very clear that he preferred air conditioning, cozy beds, full food bowls, and snuggles over life as a feral kitten! At just 8 weeks old, Mongo is ready to find his forever family. He's a playful, affectionate little guy who would love a kiddo to call his best friend and spend his days chasing toys, exploring, and collecting cuddles. Mongo is litterbox trained, loves people, and is settling into indoor life beautifully. He especially loves office hours and assisting our team here at The Feline Fix, making sure paperwork is properly supervised and that everyone takes plenty of kitten cuddle breaks. Rumor has it he's secretly Princess Donut's dinosaur sidekick and is simply waiting for his next great adventure. 🦖🧡 Because he's still a young kitten, Mongo will need another friendly feline companion in the home to help burn off kitten energy and provide friendship as he grows. Think Mongo might be the missing piece of your family? Apply to adopt at www.thefelinefix.org/adopt

Story
Hi, I’m Tootsie Roll! Also known as Tootie, Queen of Darkness and Subtle Chaos. I have a huge appetite, endless energy, and absolutely no concept of personal space—especially when food is involved. I love face boops, belly rubs, cuddles, and napping right next to your face. My favorite hobbies include stealing bites of food, chasing toy mice, wrestling with my sister, and sprinting around the house like a tiny maniac. I may be mischievous, but I’m also incredibly affectionate and never far from the action. Want to see where my journey began? Follow @journeyto_furever on Instagram! 🧡 Ready to adopt?
