Story
Riley is a sweet and resilient former outdoor mama who’s ready for her next chapter — the indoor, spoiled kind! This pretty girl raised her babies with love and is now learning that life inside is pretty great. She’s got one adorably unique ear that gives her extra character (and makes her even more memorable!). Riley can be a little grumbly when she meets new cats, but once she settles in, she does just fine with them. She’s also been great with kids and enjoys a calm, cozy space to nap and observe her kingdom. Riley will be ready for adoption starting November 12th, so mark your calendar — this quirky-eared queen won’t stay single for long!

With his soft white coat and orange spots, Stay Puft looks as sweet as his marshmallowy namesake—and his personality matches perfectly. This little sweetheart is equal parts silly and snuggly. He loves cuddles, gets along great with other cats, and will happily purr away while making biscuits like a pro. Playful, gentle, and oh-so-charming, Stay Puft is ready to bring joy (and snuggles) to his forever family.

Story
At about 9 months old, Lorelai is a beautiful calico girl with the gentlest soul. Born to a feral mom, she grew up surrounded by kind neighbors who helped her learn that people mean safety, love, and treats. Lorelai is sweet, soft-natured, and enjoys quiet affection. She’s the type of cat who will blossom in a calm home where she can curl up in a sunny spot or cuddle close when she’s ready. Lorelai would love a family who appreciates her gentle spirit and will let her continue to grow into the loving companion she’s meant to be.

Story
Charlie’s had a rough past and been let down by people before, but you'd never guess it—he’s as happy-go-lucky and laid-back as they come! His favorite activity? Napping in the sun, naturally. But when he’s not soaking up the rays, he’s all about playing with toys and hanging out with his fellow felines. With his long legs and larger-than-life presence, Charlie definitely has a distinguished air about him—a true mayor of his home. He takes his “office” duties seriously, helping with chores by expertly sweeping litter and food into neat little piles with his paws. After all, a tidy house is a happy house, right? Charlie would thrive as either the only cat or with a playful feline companion. If you’re looking for a charismatic, easygoing guy who will bring both charm and a little bit of order to your home, Charlie is your guy!
