This adorable trio came to us with sweet Dove, and they’re ready to find loving homes of their own! Archer, Sonnet, and Valentina do not have to go home together—but if you’ve been thinking about adopting a pair (or even three!), they would love to keep the fun going with a sibling. Valentina is the most outgoing of the bunch, confident and curious, always ready to say hello. Archer and Sonnet are just as sweet but a bit shy at first. All three were born with adorable little bob tails, which only adds to their charm and makes them extra special. Like most kittens, they’ll do best with a slow introduction to their new home so they can build confidence and feel secure. With love, playtime, and a cozy space to settle in, these cuties are sure to grow into wonderful companions. Whether you’re looking for one playful sweetheart or multiple bundles of joy, Archer, Sonnet, and Valentina are ready to bring happiness to your home. Ready to Adopt a Kitten?

Hoarder cats are House Spirits - very shy with people. They live in your home, but are rarely seen - visitors will never see them. They are cats who live with you, and who may sometimes grant you the opportunity to touch them. Or, they may not. Here's what to expect with these special cats: These cats WILL: They're great with other cats! They are used to living with many cats, and are excellent companions for other cats. Over time, they will most likely get used to one or two people who will be allowed to touch them. They may choose to hang out near you, or sleep on the bed with you at night. They are a great choice for patient, kind people with a quiet household, who want to make a difference for an individual cat - one that few people have the patience to help. They are a fine choice for situations where you don't have a lot of time to devote to a pet - most of these kitties do not need or want much attention from people. These cats will not: They will not magically turn into normal acting cats; what you see is what they will be like for a long time, maybe always. Some will change more than others, but be prepared for what you see now. They will not be a good choice for busy homes. Ready to Adopt?

Tito is just over 2 years old and I've had him since he was born. He loves attention, playing, cuddling and other cats once he gets comfortable with them. He is an indoor cat and has never been outside. He is very vocal when he wants attention. I'm looking for a new home due to having a busy schedule. I am also able to provide a liter box, cat tree, toys and food. I’m not looking for a rehoming fee, just for the little guy to go to a good home.
