Story
Wally and his identical sister Marta were rescued as kittens from my nearby Walmart. They were born into and living in the outside garden center for several weeks as store management wanted them gone. Along with a solid black littermate, they were born to a solid black feral mama cat. Shoppers felt sorry for the kittens and fed them canned food under the plant displays. When I set traps for the kittens, I wasn't sure they could be tamed, as they were all approximately 3 months old at the time. But I worked with them over several weeks and even sent the to live temporarily with a family in order to socialize them to other people besides me. Wally came around beautifully. He's a very lovable boy that crawls right into your lap for loving. His sister, Marta (also available), remains very shy. She is smaller than Wally and always seemed to regard Wally as her protector. Wally currently lives in a bedroom along with other adult foster cats who have access to an outdoor "catio".

Story
Trixie is 3 years old, and she is very sweet but also a little diva and everything is on her own terms. She loves to be petted but doesn't like to be held. Im hoping to find her a loving home and think she may do well outside as long as its in a rural quiet area.

Story
Poppy and her very handsome brother Gus (also solid white, with beautiful blue eyes) were living in a young girl’s bedroom at her mother’s home. Neither Poppy nor Gus had been spayed or neutered and were reaching the age where they'd be in danger of mating. Their owner could not afford their vetting and thought they deserved better than one small bedroom, so she posted them on a Facebook rehoming page. I knew they would be easy to place because re so beautiful, so I asked their first owner to drop them off at a vets where I paid for spay/neuter, vaccines, deworming, flea treatment and microchips. Poppy and Gus are bonded and must be adopted together. They currently live in a bedroom at my house where they have access to a large outdoor catio; through a cat door. Because they are small cats and solid white, they’re easily spotted by predators and must be indoor-only cats. Also, both cats are extremely sensitive to fleas, so they must stay on flea prevention. They LOVE canned food!

Story
Ginkgo (black) and Juniper (tabby) are the two girls. They love our other foster Arlo (the orange/white cat). The girls were found together as feral kittens. They've been indoor since and have warmed up to people more each day! They are very smart, curious, playful, and will do anything for a treat! They would be great indoor/outdoor cats or fully indoor. If they were outside they would need a safe, warm shelter, regular vet visits. I am willing to consider a barn cat home since they are still a bit skittish but I believe they can tame down as indoor cats. Juniper loves soft blankets, she drags them around and makes herself a cozy bed. Ginkgo is much more brave and curious, she has cute little zoomies and is more talkative!

Story
1 year old, male, Neutered, microchipped. He loves everyone and everything! The sweetest, most gentle cat! He would be great addition to a family with kids and other pets! He would be a great addition for an active pet or senior pet, since he is so gentle and kind to everyone he meets! We found him wounded on the streets, treated him, and tested him for FIV. He tested negative, but recommended to test again, although unlikely he may have had a false negative. He has been dewormed and flea treated. He is every cat's favorite cat! Adoption fee will be put towards helping the rest of the cat colony where we found him.
