Story
Katie is a 13-14 year old spayed, dilute calico, low maintenance female cat who is looking for her forever home. She has lived with the same man and woman her entire life but he was recently moved to a nursing home after his wife died and she was not allowed to go with him. I have been fostering her for about 4 months now with the intentions to keep her but she is very distressed by my other two cats. She enjoys the company of my 10 month old baby, my husband, and is okay being near our small 9 pound dog too. All she really wants is a nice big window to curl up in and the occasional lap to snuggle up on. She is a very sweet old lady but gets overwhelmed very easily by the other cats in the house. Katie would do best in a home with no other cats, and preferably no active dogs or children. She is the kind of cat that just likes to relax in her armchair. Katie doesn't really enjoy playing with toys on her own, but will occasionally chase a string toy if you initiate play with her.

He was rescued with his siblings from outside. He is about 8 months old now. He is very playful and energetic. He loves being held and babied. He enjoys play fighting with other cats. He will talk your ear off if you let him. He is always happy to see his owner. He dreams of being an escape artist (watch your doors when he's around) and most importantly, he has so much love to give his new owner! He is already neutered and has all of his vaccines.

Tiri was rescued along with her siblings earlier this year (July 2024). She's currently about 8 months old. She has been finding her own courage and independence while she explores around the house. She's very kind and loving both towards her siblings and her humans. She loves to play with your phone, specifically the Mouse for Cats app. She is spayed and has her vaccines. Tiri has so much love to give her new owner!

Story
Hi everyone, I'm about to move all the way across the country to California via car, and also I've been having to work so much lately that I don't really feel I've been able to be a good cat Dad to my lovely cat Zoe. She is the sweetest cat ever so I'm hoping to find a new owner who will be able to be much more attentive to her. She is a very skittish kitty and it seems like she may have had some trauma in her very early life (or she's just really sensitive) so I'm looking to find someone who has lots of free time (ideally retired perhaps?) and can offer a very safe and nurturing environment for her. Once she bonds with you she's very sweet and friendly. She loves to sit on your lap and get stomach scratches. It's impossibly cute. Note: I think ideally she'd be the only pet in the house. Queen Zoe. Anywho, if you are interested and you know you can offer her lots of attention you all could be a great match! Please feel free to reach out and ask any questions. Best, Andrew

Story
I have had Georgia since she was a kitten. She has always been a timid cat and easily startled. She loves to cuddle with you once she gets to know you, however. She is a wonderful cat and we would love to keep her, but unfortunately must find a new home for her due to landlord issues.

I have two cats that I need to rehome. This is breaking my heart because I love my babies. These two particular cats have decided to use everything but the litter box. Hezekiah doesn’t get along with another of my cats. He started marking about 4 months ago. The second cat, Hosannah, male and neutered. I’ve taken them to the vet and tried everything. I need someone who loves animals. I want them to go to loving homes.

Originally Mala was supposed to just be a foster. She was found on the side of a highway and she must’ve only been four or five weeks old. We fell in love with her and decided to keep her. This was in 2020. However, after having a couple kiddos, we have realized that they stress her out too much and we do not feel it is fair for her to stay in our home, she is fine with teens though. Very friendly, cuddley and sweet with adults and other cats.

Story
Red is a charming orange tabby with a mangled ear, a badge of his adventurous outdoor past. A true people cat, Red adores attention, curling up beside his humans or talking to them with his expressive voice. He thrives on physical closeness, whether snuggling or lying in your lap, and loves chasing feather and snake toys and batting toy mice around. Once a street-smart outdoor cat, Red now enjoys the comforts of indoor life, including soft beds, endless snacks, and doting humans. Though his scrappy past left him with Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), he is healthy, full of life, and ready for love. Regular vet care, a good diet, and a calm home will help him live a long, happy life. Non-aggressive and adaptable, Red gets along well with friendly cats and would thrive in a quieter household where he can be the center of attention. He’s proof that a rough start doesn’t define the future and is eager to share his love with a forever family
