Meet Thumper – The Sassiest Sweetheart on Four Paws! Looking for a feline with flavor? Say hello to Thumper – a delightfully sweet (and a little spicy) kitty who’s got attitude, opinions, and a whole lot of love to give... on her own terms, of course. This playful, talkative girl is all about the action—chasing toys, batting at wand feathers, and telling you exactly what she thinks about treat time (hint: more, please). But don’t let the name fool you—she’s not some soft-footed bunny. Thumper’s got sass, and if you miss the signs, you might earn a bop or a gentle nip. All part of her charm! She’s looking for a stress-free, indoor-only home with teens or adults who can respect her boundaries, read her moods, and love her for the spicy little queen she is. No other pets, please—this diva prefers to rule her kingdom solo.To keep this firecracker happy, her forever home should be stocked with:Tons of interactive toys for her to “hunt” and conquerCat trees & scratching posts for climbing and dramatic flairWindow perches for birdwatching and royal surveysHer go-to favorites: treats, wet food, and catnip—on demandIf you’re the kind of human who appreciates a cat with character, confidence, and a whole lot of cattitude, Thumper is ready to steal your heart (and maybe your snacks).

Meet Patricia – The Queen of Her Own Kingdom! Patricia is a strong-willed, independent lady who knows exactly what she wants—and she’s looking for a home that respects her royal decree! This fiercely confident feline is searching for a pet-free palace where she can be the one and only ruler of her domain.She loves to play, whether it’s chasing wand toys, batting at crinkle balls, or pouncing on anything that sparks her curiosity. Patricia also adores treats, Churu, wet food, and catnip, making playtime (and snack time) extra special.Her ideal home will give her the option to hang out in a secure screened-in porch during the day for some sun-soaked exploration, while still being inside at night to relax and recharge. While she’s not one for constant cuddles, Patricia enjoys human company on her own terms. Teens who understand patience and giving her space will get to see her affectionate side when she decides it’s time for attention. Big changes make this queen a little nervous, so a calm, understanding home is a must.Patricia’s Must-Haves:Comfy hiding spots – because every queen needs her throne (or, well, under the bed)Cat trees, scratching posts & window perches – for reigning over her kingdom from aboveTons of toys – a mix of interactive and solo-play options to keep her entertainedA patient, understanding home – where she can take her time settling in and choose when to grace you with her presenceIf you’re looking for an independent and fascinating feline to share your home with—on her terms—Patricia is ready to meet you!
