Story
*Indoor only* Bear is a handsome young man who is initially shy, but loves to be pet. When he knows he's safe, he will curl up in a ball next to you and get all the love you're willing to give. He will dart away if he sees someone coming at him quickly, but when he realizes it's someone he loves, he'll trot around the house as if he owns the place, and then will come for some affection. He LOVES to play and loves other cats. He also enjoys cuddling in a warm bed at night. He definitely would like a companion cat who likes to wrestle. Adoption fee of $100 includes spay/neuter, FIV and FELV combo test, up-to-date rabies and distemper vaccinations, deworming treatments, flea treatments, and microchip.

Story
*Indoor only* Luna is a people lover. She is affectionate with humans on her own terms, but would prefer to be the only pet in the household. This beauty is quite the stuffed potato and would benefit from losing some weight. She LOVES food, so she needs someone who will help her eat healthy. She can be shy initially but will then come for attention and affection, and loves head/ear "scritches." Other notes from her foster mama: "She's very good, definitely a love biter. She will come for scratches, lick your hand and then gently nip. I think she is showing affection in her own way-- It's almost like she can't stop herself. She likes to play with string toys and loves her cardboard scratcher. She follows me, so I walk around the basement to get her to exercise! She loves her food!! She will sit on the back of the sofa when we watch tv, and likes bird videos on YouTube. She's quiet and always uses her litter pan. She lets me pick her up and hold her." Adoption fee of $50 includes spay/neuter, FIV and FELV combo test, up-to-date rabies and distemper vaccinations, deworming treatments, flea treatments, and microchip.

Story
*Indoor only* Whisper takes some time to warm up, but once she does she will capture your heart with her chirps and purrs. She loves affection and will roll around and show her belly when she's happy...just don't touch it! Whisper would do best in a quieter household. She has done well with older children (middle school aged and older) and is very interested in the other cats in her foster home. Adoption fee of $100 includes spay/neuter, FIV and FELV combo test, up-to-date rabies and distemper vaccinations, deworming treatments, flea treatments, and microchip.

Story
Kapha and Pitta were showed up together at a rural home in Ohio in the fall of 2017. Both thought to be less than a year old, I tried to help find a home for them and eventually became their home. When I had to leave Ohio in 2022, I had to ask friends to take them in and thankfully found a temporary home, but now that home will no longer be available. I would be delighted if they could find a home together. Kapha, the big boy, enjoys heavy flops, chest cuddles, sleeping between legs, and giving chase to laser pointers, feathers, and friends. He loves to eat. In 2020, he had urinary crystals, but has been on prescription food since and has not had problems. Pitta is the sweet but largely aloof princess who will occassionally bless you with cuddles. She prefers warm spots to sit. Both love watching the outdoors and occassionally exploring it if you're open to that.
