Story
Aesir + Golden Paw | Bonded | FELV+ Born May 2016 Aesir and golden paw are a bonded pair of cats who must be adopted together; they have a lot of love to give. Golden Paw is the more outgoing one who loves to rub up against your legs repeatedly for attention and pets. Golden Paw presents as a cat that has cerebellar hypoplasia. His balance is slightly affected so it gives him a unique way of navigating life. He doesn't let it stop him from playing or jumping and he still goes nuts over catnip toys. Golden Paw loves to play with Aesir and is great at helping her build her confidence. Aesir is a little more reserved but loves to be held; she bakes the tiniest biscuits when comfortable. After extensive dental work, Aesir's tongue hangs out, a super cute side effect! Aesir and Golden Paw both tested positive for feline leukemia (FeLV+), meaning they need to be the only cats in the home or with other FeLV+ cats. Already have FeLV- cats - tell your share them with your friends & help find them a loving home!

Story
Pebbles Born 10/2023 Pebbles came to us from a rural vet after animal control in the area brought her. Her left hind paw looks like it had been injured (trap, caught, predator), after monitoring, we realized that she was still using this leg for balance. We treated the infection & during her spay surgery, the veterinarian removed the broken bone fragments & toe bones. She is on the mend, expected to make a full recovery, she is available to be reserved for adoption, going home the first part of august after her recovery period & recheck.

Sissy + BooBoo Born 8/25/2012 - both cats are 4-paw declawed Sissy & BooBoo have lived in a home together, but do not need to be adopted together. Sissy (torti) is a reserved cat who is content to sit on a shelf by herself until her desired person walks into the room. She loves rubbing up against you doing figure 8s while purring. She is just overall a sweet, senior cat. At 15 pounds, sissy is also a member of the chonky cat club. BooBoo (grey & white) is a giant guy with an even bigger purr that echoes out of his condo. This chonky cat currently tips the scales at 22 pounds. He loves to play and would love to get into shape so he could play for longer periods of time. BooBoo is diabetic; however, due to medical advancements it is currently managed by diet and a pill every evening. He loves to roll around and chew on catnip toys.
