Story

Luci here bashfully telling you a bit about myself. I am a bit shy to start with, but once I realize that all you want to do is love me and you will be patient about it, then I'll be thrilled to purr non-stop and ask you to pet my non-stop! I love to play with stick toys and will do majestic flips while trying to get the stick. This is also because I am fascinated by ballet videos as I pick up pointers from those dancers.Like nearly all kittens, I have my oddities. For example, you can play with my right toes, but not my left ones. If you do, I'll gently remind you that is not allowed. Also, I am very insistent that I keep all paws on the ground, unless I am doing some of those aforementioned majestic flips. For you, this means no picking me up!It would be super nice if my sister, Polly and I can be adopted together. Polly is the braver one and she will quickly show me that all is good as I follow her lead. Ready to adopt both of us? Please fill out the application form and we'll set up a date to meet.

Hello there! ImLittle Girl, a 6-year-old dilute tortoiseshell with a gentle soul and a lot of love to give. My life has had some twists my first person couldnt care for me anymore, and my next home didnt turn out to be the right fit.

Ill happily curl up on your lap or beside you on the couch. I enjoy brushing (most of the time!) and playtime with wand toys. I can get a little nippy when Im hungry or overstimulated, but I always mean well I just have a big personality in a little body. Im quiet at night, respectful of house rules, and happiest in a calm, peaceful home without young kids.If youre looking for a loyal companion wholl keep you company and warm your heart, Im your girl Little Girl.

Story

Hi, I am Hershey, a four-year-old black and white tuxedo DSH girl. I was adoptedfrom AWLMC a few years ago and settled right in and life was good. Theyeventually had a baby who grew into a toddler who has not yet learned how to begentle with kitties and use his indoor voice. Loud noises and/or enthusiastichandling made me run for the nearest hiding place, so I spent a lot of time inhiding. The family decided I would be better off in a quieter home - and I agreed.I am a bit shy when meeting new people and will hide for a while until I am morecomfortable.When I am feeling safe, I am playful (wand toys, laser dots, mice, balls) and like tofollow you around, sit next to you and on your lap. I love being up high (wait untilyou see me jump!), and looking out the window from my cat tree, observing lifeoutside or curling up in a sunbeam for a nice nap. I am also intensely curiousabout open doors you never know what is inside unless you check it out right?If you want to give me a gentle chin to tail massage, I am your girl. I have thetiniest meow so listen up!Can I follow you around, sit with you, sleep with you, occupy your lap? Pleasecome see me. I want to go home with you.

Story

"Night" in Latin is Noxis thats me! Nox for short -- black like the night sky, except for a white spot on my chest. I was adopted as a kitten and so happy until the human babies came along. Lets just say this 8-year-old boy does not care for little kids. I tolerated the first baby when I was four. But when the second came along a few months ago, it was just too much for me and I showed that I was unhappy. However, I have been the perfect gentleman cat in my foster home which has no children! My foster mom said I am a lively, intelligent, companionable kitty!This is what I hope to find in my new home. First, I love attention, petting and talking with you. If I feel you are ignoring me I will either meow, nudge, or softly tap you with my paw. Windows with a view are an absolute must for my sunbathing and bird watching. While I am not crazy about being picked up and carried around, I love to take naps on your lap. My mom said to warn you that I like to tear and chew on tape, especially shipping tape when attached to a box. So, youll have to keep those out of my reach, or I will swallow the tape! Other than sticky tape, my favorite toys include feathers on a wand, anything with catnip in it, and my treat maze. Well, how about it? Come by so I can try out your lap for napping!

Story

Goldaline has been visiting us for months, eventually he decided he wanted to come inside and become part of the family. Unfortunately, he does not get along with our existing cat Cecilia. He is very loving with a loud purr and big personality. We suspect he has single kitten syndrome because of his behavioral issues, he will need a kind and experienced new owner.

Story

This is Benji, and he needs your help This baby was left behind by a family that did not want to care for him. When he first arrived, he was scared, traumatized and confused. Benji has been in our care for about two month, and we have taken the time to help him get out of his shell. He is still very scared of humans, often threatened by touch or movement. We are hoping someone with experience, love, tenderness and patience can take him and help him. We have come to love Benji, and you will see that underneath his rough surface is a boy who desires love and affection. We have a cat and he seems very curious about him, so we think he might do well with other cats with proper introduction. Children and loud noises scare him. But with proper introduction we know he will blossom in any home. Benji is waiting for you, and he can’t wait to meet you ❤️
