Story
Tiffany is house trained. Seems to not be happy in my home or has a behavioral problem. She won’t let me get close to her unless I’m feeding her canned food. I tried to house her, but seems like she might be happier as the only pet in another home. She is healthy and has never had any health issues. She has always been a house cat with no need for shots. I’m hoping she could be a good pet in another environment suitable to her needs.

Story
Hi, my name is Vester Stallone. Like the famous actor, I may look tough, but I'm really a big loving teddy bear. I have a care taker who has looked out for me since she moved into the house of the backyard I call home. She's moving to Tennessee and would love to bring me, but has multiple cats already, and just can't add me to her collection, so I need an indoor, forever home fast. I've only known the outdoors as my home as I've been an alley stray my whole life, but I'm the most sweet, quiet, loving cat and would be grateful to become an indoor cat. It's very dangerous where I live, lots of stray pitbulls that chase me down, fast cars, and mean people, and not to mention the inclement weather. I am about 2.5 years old, neutered, and current vaccines. All I need now is a kind, patient person who will take a chance on me, they won't be disappointed. Please open your heart and home and adopt me.

Story
My Ginny came out of a hoarding situation (30+cats). In the home she was in she had to fight for every resource and is still in that survival mode. She is about 5 years old and has had multiple litters until I rescued her and had her fixed (Aug 13,2025). Per former owner, her other kittens were taken away by the other cats in the household, so she is distrustful of other cats and feels threatened by my cats and lashes out. She is sweet with me and my boyfriend, but maybe a little shy with the few we’ve had. I feel like for her own happiness she should be an only cat.

These cats are in Shepherdsville, Kentucky too!

Story
Crow was born February 22, 2022. He is a purebred silver marble Bengal. He is a sweet vocal guy. A little on the large side but he's not fat just a big guy. He loves to play with toys and a laser. He loves to sit in the shower with you and doesn't mind getting a bath. He is great with his sister but he hasn't been around many other animals. He is a little skittish with people he doesn't know but warms up fast. He avoids small children. After our son was born he started becoming very antisocial and anxious. We feel he would be more comfortable with a family who can be 100% all about him. He is very loving and sweet. We are also rehoming his sister for the same reason and would love for them to continue to be together.

Story
Luna was born February 22, 2022. She is a purebred snow marble Bengal. She is a bit skittish but is loving and vocal. She loves to play with toys and a laser. He chases springs and plays fetch. She loves to tell you when she catches bugs and mice. Being a female she's not the most affectionate but when you scratch her head she purrs so loud. She's only ever been around her brother who we are also trying to rehome and would love to see them go to the same home together. She has become very antisocial after our son was born and as much as we were hoping she would warm up to having a human brother so far she has not. I call her my little burnt marshmallow because she has the most beautiful coat. She's not crazy about water but will let you give her a bath when needed.

Story
Elvis is 7 years old, he was living in a hoarders house didn't have any human contact for 5 years. They only put food and water out for him. They moved out when he was 2 he was locked in the house and someone came daily with food & water and cleaned litterbox. He lived in pure isolation. He is scared of new people at 1st but once he gets used to you he is a total sweetheart. He loves belly rubs. He would do better being the only pet in the house. He doesn't seem to mind dogs. We don't know how he would do with children. He is very shy but he does warm up to you and turns into a lapcat.
