Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
She's 4 years old, only has 3 legs but gets around just fine without additional help. I fostered her for a shelter until they could find a home for her, they never did and mentioned it was likely she'd get euthanized, so I adopted her with the intent of finding her a new home. Years passed and here we are. She has a habit of licking faces, and hates other cats. She's temperamental and has sensitivity issues with being touched near her missing leg. Despite this, she's incredibly playful, has a lot of pent up energy at all times, much more play motivated than food motivated, she's a super agile girl with a lot of personality. Very timid at first but if you're quiet and patient she will come to you and never leave you alone.

Story
Gashar is my miracle kitty who needs a miracle. An amazing emotional support cat, his cuddly personality and soothing purr anchored me post-surgery. By timing my mend to his meals, he also helps manage my disabilities. Despite being an old man (13), he loves to play and chase strings. He's a climber and faithful companion, braving the leap from my bed to my hammock for rocking cuddles. Gashar is in surprisingly good health, despite being FIV and FeLeuk positive. He's a favorite of the KC Cat Clinic as they marvel at his great health. The only manifestation of the viruses we've seen is OS-Kerato-conjuctivitis in the left eye, which is being treated. Unfortunately I need to move internationally where he can't follow. Thus, I am happy to send him to his new home with all his supplies. He would make an excellent first cat for someone wanting to see if cat companionship is right for them long-term, or continuing as an emotional support cat for someone who needs some loving attention.

Story
Sully is almost four years old and very affectionate toward people. We've had him since he was a new kitten, and he has always displayed a curious and warm demeanor. For most of his life, he has lived with another cat, his biological sister Junie. During those 4 years they got along quite well with each other, aside from bouts of sibling rivalry here and there. Recently, we introduced another kitten to the household, and after 5 months of adaptation and many waves of change, we are faced with the tough decision of needing to re-home Sully for the well being of all of our cats. We are hesitant to say he doesn't get along with other animals, as he has temporarily lived with dogs a few times without issues. The dynamic between our current pets has led him to displaying much more stressed and aggressive behaviors towards his sisters. He is a sweet boy and we believe he would do well in a home without other pets and with owners ready to give him the love, time, and affection he needs.

Story
This beautiful 2-year-old girl is a loving, independent cat who adores sleeping next to you and seeking out gentle affection. She has a soft, silky coat, and many people who normally get cat allergies say they don’t react around her. She enjoys being indoors with her humans, but she also loves sunbathing on a patio or relaxing in a safe outdoor space. She has a calm personality, is fully litter-trained, and enjoys both companionship and her own quiet time. She would be happiest in a peaceful, low-stress environment. Can definitely be with another cat who is super low-key. Transitioning time would need to be had. Perfect for someone wanting a sweet companion who is affectionate without being clingy.
