Story
Sassafras was considered a spicy cat when he first came in, but he is actually a snuggly sweetheart. He hates being given oral meds and may get a bit spicy about that....but otherwise he loves cuddles, rubbing against you and booping your nose with his. Sass is a neutered male who is litterbox trained. He eats Purina One dry food, but his favorite is Fancy Feast pate. He has a good appetite. He has spent some time in the crate daily, but prefers being able to roam. If you're looking for someone who would enjoy snuggling while you watch TV, this is your guy:)

Story
Sissy is such a sweet girl. She came to us with her brother Sassafrass. Sissy loves people and gets really excited when someone comes into the room. She wants to rub against you, boop your nose, and crawl into your arms. Sissy eats well, both dry and wet food. She uses the litterbox well, is up to date on shots, and is spayed. Someone is going to hit the jackpot with her! Be prepared for Sissy and her brother to be standoffish and shy at first. But once they know they are safe and loved, they quickly blossom. Both now sleep with me, and only hide when they think I'm going to give them meds:) Sissy is more cuddly than she is playful, but the way she drinks water makes me laugh. I kept hearing all this noise at the water dish. Sissy was dipping her paw in and drinking water out of her paw. It's the only way I've seen her drink:). Se doesn't enjoy taking meds, but is very docile about it....she just seethes with silent rage:). Afterwards she may hide briefly but doesn't hold a grudge. Both cats have their claws, but use them carefully

Story
My name is Noah. I was living in the Riverside Cemetery in Anamosa. An elderly couple would come by and feed me once a day for over a month. Then one day they did not come and someone else came by and saw me waiting for my dinner. She gave me wet food and she managed to get me into a pet taxi (which I still do not like). Luckily she did, because that night the temperature dropped below freezing.Now I have been in her home for awhile. I was not happy because she kept putting stuff in my eyes. By the way, I don't think I can see out of one eye. But now I am healthy, I have met her other cats, and I am ready for a home of my own.I have not had any interaction with children, so I would be best in a home without small children because I sometimes get over excited about the attention and can get a little rough.I will warn you....I really like to get kisses on top of my head and have my belly rubbed. I also like catnip. So if you are prepared to give me the attention I want, Come meet me!
