Meet Ziggy, a big, sweet, and sensitive black cat with a heart full of love. Over 10 years ago, Ziggy was born in our care under the name Tumnus and quickly found a loving home. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, he now finds himself back with us, but we are hopeful that his forever family is just around the corner.Ziggy can be a bit shy when first entering a new space, but once he feels safe and understands that you mean no harm, his gentle and affectionate nature shines through. This distinguished gentleman has a lot of love to give and is looking for a peaceful and understanding home where he can feel secure.Despite his age, Ziggy still has plenty of life and love to share. He enjoys lounging in sunny spots, getting gentle head scratches, and quietly observing the world around him. His sweet purrs and calm presence make him the perfect companion for a relaxed household.

Story
Meet Pinto, a 4-year-old brown tabby cat who has found himself back at our facility after his adopter's health started to decline. Pinto first came to us in May of 2020 with his three brothers, all of whom were clearly frightened and unsure of the world. Thanks to one of our dedicated staff members who stepped up to foster and socialize the litter, his brothers eventually came out of their shells. However, Pinto remained cautious and still carried that cautiousness into his adulthood, but once Pinto warms up he is putty in your hands! Re-entering the shelter has been challenging for Pinto, and we are hopeful to find him a fresh start. Pinto does well with other cats and would thrive in a home where a confident feline could show him the ropes. When Pinto is happy, he is sure to let you know as he will begin to drool with happiness, kind of gross but also endearing. With the right environment and a bit of time, Pinto is sure to blossom into a wonderful companion.

Story
Meet Dots, a stunning 5-year-old Calico cat who is as sweet as she is beautiful. With her striking patches of orange, black, and white, she catches everyone's eye, but it's her personality that truly shines. Though her facial expression might suggest otherwise, Dots is far from being a grumpy cat. She has a gentle, shy nature and occasionally needs a little time to warm up to new people and situations.What helps Dots come out of her shell? Snacks and the companionship of other cats! She has a soft spot for tasty treats and enjoys sharing them with her feline friends. Dots has a special way of bonding with other cats, and their presence gives her the confidence to explore and engage more openly. She loves lounging with her buddies and can often be found cuddling or playing with them.Dots is looking for a loving home where she can have the company of other cats and an abundance of delicious snacks.

Story
Tiny is true to his name. He may be small, but what he lacks in size he sure makes up for in personality! This little dynamo loves to dart around the house, play with toys, and follow his favorite people. He has been good with kids in his foster home and would likely be a good candidate for a house with another kitten/cat or gentle dog given a proper introduction.

Story
Meet Petunia, The sweetest, friendliest, gentlest, cuddliest cat who also happens to be a bit of a diva. Her chirps are not just adorable, they're her way of directing her 'staff' at the shelter. She ended up here after she staged a sit-in protest at her previous home, refusing to move from the middle of the kitchen until her demands for gourmet tuna were met. Unfortunately, her previous owners were vegetarians and didn't keep tuna at home. So, they brought her to us, where she has been chirping orders ever since. If you're looking for a cat who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to ask for it, Petunia is the one for you. She promises to fill your life with chirps, cuddles, and endless love. (Please note the reason given above for surrender is fictional) If you are interested in adopting her please give us a call at 410-827-7178

Meet Wren! Normally we don't do bios on kittens but Wren we just have to tell you about. Wren is a super sweet and very playful kitten. Coming in as a stray he was adopted but unfortunately returned due to something called a prolapse. We fixed his prolapse and should not have any further issues with it however we want all interested in him to know about his unique medical issue. Now don't think this has slowed him down or stopped him from being a totally normal kitten otherwise. He is!! He wants attention the second you open the kennel door then any part of your hand or arm becomes a toy :) We adore this goofball and we hope you feel the same. Come by to meet him or put in an application!
