Story
Torti came to my yard with her feral family about 13 years ago.I started feeding them. One by one the others left and Torti has remained. She has always been an outdoor cat and has stayed healthy. She would like to live inside I’m sure. She comes in while I prepare her food, then goes back out. She doesn’t wander but stays on my porch or in the yard. I’m traveling more and plan to move by next year. I would love for her to have a new home.

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.

Story
This is for a Male AND a Female. They're bonded. They look almost identical but the male is a bit fatter. Cheddar is the male and a little standoffish, but he's still a sweet boy. Mozzarella (Motzie) is as sweet as can be. She’ll want to love and be loved. They are honestly great pets but I recently gave birth and cant give them the attention they deserve. They are both spayed/neutered. They are not from the same litter but have been together since they were both roughly a year old. They are roughly 3-4 years only currently. They will come with everything we have for them.

Story
Theo is a playful 7 year old cat that is not adjusting to our new baby and has gotten aggressive with our toddler—no biting, just swatting. He is great with other cats and dogs. Would do best in a home with other cats and without small children. I just want him to find a home where he can have a companion to play with and not be tormented by my toddler.

Story
Pixel stands out with her striking half-calico, half-tabby coat—a unique beauty who’s as intriguing as she is lovely. While her sisters rush in for attention, Pixel prefers to watch before joining in and truly shines with gentle encouragement. This sweet girl enjoys playtime at her own thoughtful pace, especially darting beneath furniture or chasing toys. After recent harness adventures, she’s shown she’s up for a challenge and ready to explore. Raised with other cats and dogs, Pixel will do well in a home with people and pets. Delightful but never demanding, Pixel will thrive in an environment that offers kindness, company, and time to bond. Give her a gentle touch and a little adventure, and you’ll discover the affectionate, playful spirit she has to share.
