FKA Step Dad Bod, Bowser will be at Animal House today (May 3rd) after 2pm! He is ready to find his people.After having a stressful shelter arrival, he`s gotten his swagger back while in foster.Bowser is the cat that everyone is going to talk about and remember. He is confident yet sweet. He will roll over for belly rubs and actively looks for sunshine to lay in. He can peacefully coexist with dogs and other cats. He does take up a lot of bed space but at 20lbs, he loves to snuggle!Bowser is around 10yrs old, 22lbs, neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. He is on prescription food due to crystals in his urine. He uses the litterbox without issue. Head in to Animal House 3516 Newburg Rd today to check Bowser out.

Story
We adopted Raven from the Purrfect Day Cat Cafe on Bardstown Road. When we first met her we fell in love with her immediately. She's super cuddly and friendly. When we brought her home she was nervous, but she warmed up to us very quickly. Unfortunately the same could not be said for our resident cat, Freya. We had assumed that Freya would get along with Raven, since Freya grew up in a household with 3 other kittens, her mother, and another unrelated cat. That wasn't the case however, and Freya was very nervous around Raven, hissing at her even when they were separated by a screen, or even hissing just on smelling her scent. Raven isn't free of blame either, because instead of backing off when hissed at she would get very feisty, including jumping at the screen and even attacking Freya multiple times. As much as I would love to take more time to help them get along, our downstairs neighbors keep complaining about the noise Raven makes at night, and we can't let her our of her room yet.

Story
This is KitKat. She was found outside around October 2023. She came right up to my daughter and wanted attention. We started feeding her and coming out every day to give her attention. In December during the first cold period, we found her sitting on our door mat waiting on us. We brought her in and moved her into our basement. She uses the cat box with no problem, loves wet, food, and dry food and freshwater. I go downstairs multiple times a day to give her attention, and she comes right up to me, sits in my lap and loves to be petted. If I have other things to do down there, she’ll follow me around and talk to me. I have five other cats, but no matter how many times I bring one or two downstairs to see her. She does not care for them. She hisses and keeps moving away from them. I’m looking for a home for her that has adults only is looking for a lap cat. She needs a home that will give her all the attention she wants and spoil her. She does like catnip, treats, and toys.
