Story
Jimmy showed up on our doorstep 1 month after the passing of our last cat. With his laid back cuddly attitude, he got me through the hard years of infertility and my pregnancies. The kids have grown up with him through the years and love him. 3 kids later, with our third being born just last month we aren’t able to cuddle as much. We are so thankful for our time with Jimmy, but we would love for him to go to a home where he gets more attention. The stress of the new baby has caused Jimmy to diarrhea outside his litter box. We’ve taken him to the vet and can’t seem to find any medical issue, but perhaps you can (and perhaps it’s simply stress). We also can’t have an unsanitary situation around our children, or have any more medical expenses . With a heavy heart we will say goodbye and hope his diarrhea will clear up with another loving home . We have never rehomed a pet before, yet our family has changed with 3 kids, our needs have changed as well.

Story
Cleopawtra has been my little baby for about 2 years. But, I have to give her away as I am moving and my apartment only allows one pet per resident and I have another cat. She is wonderful and very playful. At first she may be scared and anxious because she used to be a stray. But over time she will warm up to you and be the sweetest and clingiest baby. She loves to cuddle and she gets along with other cats but it also takes times for her to warm up to them too. Overall, she is a great cat.

Story
Pepper – Sweet 11-Year-Old Tuxedo Lap Cat Seeking a Loving Home: Pepper is a beautiful 11-year-old tuxedo cat looking for a loving indoor home. She is spayed, healthy, and has no known medical issues. Pepper is a friendly, affectionate lap cat who loves spending time with her people. She enjoys being brushed, playing with toys, and curling up for cuddles. She has a gentle personality and gets along well with other animals and children, making her a wonderful companion for a variety of households. She has been an indoor-only cat her entire life, is litter-trained, and is well-adjusted to living in a home environment. Pepper's vaccinations are not currently up to date. Pepper would thrive in a caring home where she can continue to receive the attention, affection, and companionship she enjoys. She has many loving years ahead of her and deserves a family that will cherish her. If you are interested in meeting Pepper or learning more about her, please contact me.

*Meow* I`m in a foster home. To meet me reach out to my foster caregiver at vongmichelle20@gmail.comJersey is ready to go to the shore… well, actually, he’s really hoping to go home with you. This young, fun feline has the cutest kitty markings and a look that makes him truly unforgettable. He’s an awesome kitty who’s eager for cat toys, great meals, maybe a cozy lap to snuggle in — but most of all, he wants love and kindness. Jersey`s foster says, `He’s the absolute sweetest and loves pets and head butting onto you. He does little 360° spins to make sure you pet every part of him, from his head to his belly to his butt! He’s very well behaved and stays calm under pressure.`

*Meow* I`m in a foster home. Email camorahking@gmail.com to meet me!Hershey is a sweet, chatty girl who has made wonderful strides in building her confidence since leaving the shelter. She has an independent streak, but she also adores playtime — especially chasing laser pointers — and she melts for chin, neck, and butt scratches. Her purrs come quickly and generously.One of Hershey’s favorite pastimes is sitting by the window to watch birds, fully absorbed in her own little nature documentary. Every now and then, she’ll trot over to check on her humans, offering a few enthusiastic yaps as if giving a status update and requesting some pets.Hershey can be a bit shy at first, so she’ll thrive with a patient adopter who gives her the time and space to settle in at her own pace. With kindness and understanding, she blossoms more each day, revealing her affectionate, gentle personality.

Story
Kiki is a sweet loving 12 year old cat who was my exes cat that he left me with in 2018. She is overweight and has back pain but other than that she's in good health. She's very calm, likes to sleep a lot but is also affectionate. I cannot afford to take her to the vet to find out what's wrong with her back, possibly cancer pain or something to do with the spine because she twitches whenever her back is touched. I recently adopted a puppy and she doesn't get along with it either. Puppy just wants to play but she doesn't so she hisses and swipes at it if it comes to close. I don't want to have to put her down due to her back pain so this adoption option is my best hope. She just needs a loving home.

Story
Great indoor/outdoor cat named Figaro. He was a neighborhood stray that adopted us. He’s really friendly, and is fine with kids unless they play a little rough with him. If he’s hungry or wants more attention sometimes he swats or nips at you so you pay attention. He’s not a bad cat and 99 percent of the time he’s totally fine--he loves to curl up next to you and fall asleep. He's very affectionate. Unfortunately he scratched my toddler twice when she tried to play with him so she’s now scared of him, and he nipped my wife's ankle trying to get her attention once, so we’re looking to move him on to a new home. He's a great cat, just not the right fit for us. He’s neutered and has been given a bunch of shots (was up to date about eight months ago) and is also microchipped. A few neighborhood cats in our area come into our yard and try to fight with him, which is why I say he's not good with other cats (I blame the other cats). No idea how he is around dogs. He's great at killing mice.
