Story

So i got Moon from a friends co-worker 8 months ago. He is a very sweet boy. We are having to rehome due to landlord issues. Moon is a feisty, playful kitten with a lot of energy. He is a cuddler when he wants to be lol. I currently have not had him around other animals (we don't have any others), so I am unsure how he would do. Possibly a need to slowly introduce. He is litter trained but currently isnt vaccinated (I have an appointment coming up). He is not neutered. He likes being outside but I live on a street where people speed 50+ down the road daily. I am worried for his safety having him outside here. He would actually make a great indoor/outdoor cat.

Story

This is Luna. Luna is a gray, four year old, lovable cat in need of a family. She can be territorial, and plays rough, so she either needs a family with no pets, or a pet that can match her roughhousing. Her interaction with dogs has been minimal. She is spayed, but will need updated shots. She is vocal in her needs. She loves to be outside, loves her food, loves to chase, but most of all loves her pets. She can never have enough lap time curled up having her belly rub. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Story

We got Aura and another cat ( both Female) a couple of years ago from a family that had kittens. Aura has always been a little anxious and had a harder time settling, and after we had a baby she's retreated back to being very reserved and shy. With her anxiousness I believe she would do much better in a home with no other pets and no children. She has had the issue of spraying during heat with the other cat around, which we believe would stop if she got spayed. We do not have the ability to pay for it, which is why we would love to rehome her to someone who can meet all her needs. Aura is independent but also loves to cuddle occasionally. She loves setting in the window to watch outside, her favorite toy is a laser, and of course she loves her catnip.

Story

This lovely tabby boy is Max! Max might appear very shy, but once you get to know him you'll see how big his heart is! Max is a big fan of wand toys and is still working on becoming more social. He would prefer a quiet house with high perches and cozy spots for him to nap. Max is FeLV+ (feline leukemia) positive. Besides a comfy home and a loving family, he has to be the only cat or live with other FeLV+ cats to avoid spreading the disease. Max is waiting for his perfect chance to pick his person, so don't hesitate to stop by and meet him!

This sweet girl was found as a stray. She was brought to Furry Friends Refuge to be spayed, when it was discovered she has a birth defect to her front left leg, but she gets around just great. Her Sternum did not form properly before she was born, so her heart is only protected by her skin. She absolutely LOVES people and wants nothing more than to be pet and loved.

Dexter is a male kitten I found with his sister, in lorimor Iowa with no momma as she got sick and passed away. Him and his sister Dee Dee are a bonded pair because they have been together since I got them. Dexter was a runt with an infected eye and is now bigger and a bully to his sister. It’s ok though she fights back. Dexter loves attention and LOVES treats. He knows how to sit! Kind of he gets too eager so he stands on his hind legs.
