Story
Java is a senior cat of unknown age. I think he is maybe 15 years old or more. My mother was his second owner, and she passed away in September. We thought my father would be able to care for Java and his sister, Lil' Bit, but he has just moved into a nursing home. I am looking for a stable home where Java can live out his final years. He is a gentle cat and a little skittish. He likes his own space. Kids or pets that are too young and loud will scare him, but he will just run and hide.

Story
Copper was adopted from the animal rescue fund in 2021. He is a VERY loving cat that wants affection. He loves laying on laps, being petted, catnip, and wet food. He communicates when he needs something, and really likes sticking to a schedule. He is happiest when he is with people and able to look out windows at birds (or birds on YouTube!). He has started to not get along with the other cat in the home, and, after trying several different changes, they unfortunately need to be separated. He has never been in a home with dogs, but he was in a room full of cats at the animal rescue fund.

Story
Hi there, I’m Nate, your soon-to-be best friend and professional snuggle expert! I’m a super affectionate guy who believes there’s no such thing as too many cuddles—I’ll happily curl up in your lap and purr the day away. I’m FIV+, but that just means I have a special immune system and can still live a long, happy life with a little extra TLC. I also have something called stomatitis (a mouth condition that can be uncomfortable), and just need to come back after adoption for a quick dental surgery to keep me smiling bright. I’ve been through a lot, but I haven’t let it dull my gentle heart. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion who just wants to be close to you, I’m your guy—come meet me and let’s start our forever cuddle session!

I enjoy quiet spaces, soft voices, and cozy hiding spots where I can feel safe. Once I trust you, I’ll show you just how affectionate and loyal I can be. If you have a calm home and a big heart, I’d love the chance to bloom with you.

Story
Hi, I’m Darlene! I’m a sweet, senior lady who was found as a stray, and I’ve been nothing but grateful for kind humans ever since. I love calm company, soft pets, and cozy naps. I do have a heart murmur and an elevated SDMA, though my other kidney values look good—so I just need a little extra monitoring. If you’re looking for a loving, mellow companion with a tender heart, I’d love to be yours.

Story
I first found my humans back in 2012 when I wandered into an apartment complex. They posted everywhere to see if someone was missing me, but no one came forward. I was about two years old then and already spayed. I love lounging in sunny spots, bird-watching, and Ill never turn down a good laser pointer chase. I'm great with kids and live with a dog but no other cats please. I want to share something important: I have IBS. My humans give me a low-dose steroid and hydrolyzed food, which makes me feel better and controls the symptoms. My family loves me a lot, but as their household has grown, they don't have as much time for me as they used to. They want me to have a home where I can relax, be understood, and get the attention I deserve. If you're looking for a sweet companion who loves a calm atmosphere, cozy naps, and an occasional play session, I might be the perfect fit.
