You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.If you're working for home or just playing it safe by practicing social distancing, now is a perfect time to bring a new furry family member into the fold. Email us any questions about any cats we have and we will be happy to provide any additional information you may need. If you are approved for adoption, we are now doing curbside adoptions in order to minimize contact. Edith is about 9 years old as of December 2023.  Edith was adopted as a kitten and returned to our rescue at 9 years old through no fault of her own.  Out of 4 cats in the home, she was asked to leave and not a bid of it made sense!  We adopted her out a few months after her initial return to an elderly lady who had recently lost her baby of 15 years.  The adoption was contingent upon the granddaughter's promise to care for Edith in the event that Grandma could not.  Guess what?  That promise was not honored and Edith is now back with us.  While we are happy she is safe here, she needs stability and love without being bounced around.  Imagine losing all you knew and had after 9 years only to have a few months of love and stability before becoming confused again!  Edith is a beautiful girl, she's shy and will need a home with patience who will give her time to adjust from all she has experienced.  She has lived with other cats and will make a fine addition to the right home.  Adopt her today!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All of our cats have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, de-wormed, microchipped, and tested for FIV/FeLV.

If you are approved for adoption, we are now doing curbside adoptions in order to minimize contact. Rocky is about 1 year old as of April, 2024.  He is the sweetest boy, timid at first, but once he knows you won't hurt him, he is all about pets, scratches and playing with the wand toy!  He is a complete pushover for his wet food and anyone can bond with him that will give him time to adjust and be brave.  Rocky showed up at a lady's home with visible wounds.  Fortunately, he was helped and received medical treatment along with neuter, rabies, vaccinations, etc.  Unfortunately, his visible wounds could be repaired but he tested positive for Feline Leukemia Virus (FELV) and that, unfortunately, can not be totally "fixed"  Other than his tattered ear, which was repaired with sutures, Rocky shows no visible signs of prior injury or illness.  He leads a totally normal life and is healthy!   FELV cats in our care before have lived up to 8 years and stories show that they can live many more.  They do require a home with only FELV positive cats/no other cats since the virus spreads between felines only easily.  Our no kill rescue would never euthanize a healthy boy like Rocky; he deserves life and a chance.  Adopt him today.  Approved applications will be contacted within 48 hours.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All of our cats have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, de-wormed, microchipped, and tested for FIV/FeLV.

Stamina is about 5 years old as of February 2024.  He found his way into a trap during a trap neuter return project, and was in need of medical attention.  While receiving vetting and medical treatment, he showed signs of sweetness to his caregivers and they have been working with him to adjust to the inside life.  He's come a long way and is accepting pets, playing yet is not a lap cat.  He is FIV positive yet that is no reason for concern since he likes other cats and is sharing space with some with no issues.  Stamina will need a home where he can have a segregated room and time to adjust and be brave.  With patience and time, he will be a great companion!  Adopt him today!  Approved applications will be contacted within 48 hours.  Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) | Cornell University College of Veterinary MedicineVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All of our cats have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, de-wormed, microchipped, and tested for FIV/FeLV.
