Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Micah is a senior cat, around 15 years old, who needs a new home due to a recent death in the family.He is a sweetheart, and very affectionate. He loves to climb up on your shoulders, and loves to be patted firmly on his back/rump like he’s a drum. We think he might do well as a solo cat with attentive humans. He might also do well in an environment with other cats as long as they aren’t overly scrappy.

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Mimi is a sweet 9-year-old tuxedo girl looking for a quiet, loving home, as her owner passed away suddenly. She can be a little shy when meeting new people, but once she feels comfortable, she loves attention, belly rubs, and spending time with her favorite humans. Mimi enjoys chasing fluffy toys, watching the world from a sunny window, and indulging in her favorite Churu treats. She is litter box trained, up-to-date on vaccinations (Rabies and RCP last given on 1/17/24) through January 2027, and does well on a simple routine of prescription food (Hill's Prescription Diet Gastro BIOME) and Miralax to combat constipation. Mimi is ready to find a special person or family who will give her the love and stability she deserves.

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Dumpling has been with us since she was a kitten, and when she wants affection, she is the absolute sweetest girl! Sadly, we’ve realized she just isn’t happy sharing the spotlight. She frequently clashes with her littermate brother and constantly challenges our dog. For her own peace of mind, she truly needs to be the only pet in the household. She also has no experience with children, so we aren't sure how she would do with them and feel an adult-only home (or one with older teens) might be the best fit.​On the health side, Dumpling is a bit on the chunky side—she’s a work in progress, despite our best efforts to help her lose weight! Also, please note that she is not up to date on her vaccinations, as we do not vaccinate our cats. She does still have all of her claws​It breaks our hearts to rehome her from the only family she's ever known, but we want to put Dumpling's happiness first. She deserves a home where she can be the undisputed queen of the castle!

Story
I adopted Poppy about 4 years ago. She is shy and took a while to warm up to me. She requires patience and doesn’t like doing anything she doesn’t want to. She is such a sweetheart. Poppy loves to be in your presence but not all over you. You will find her lying next to you with a paw on your leg or curled up on the blanket next to you. She is not very vocal—only around dinner time. Poppy is a special girl and I’m hoping to find a home that will love her as much as I do.

Story
Charlie and Jasper are brothers with two distinct personalities. They love to play together, however they sleep separately. Charlie loves string toys and interactive. Jasper loves those but he is very happy playing on his own with toy balls and mice. He carries them from room to room to continue to play. Both are super sweet and purr all the time, love pets and enjoy their condo. I can provide the cat condo, scratch post, two litterboxes and food to the new owners. These guys were bottle fed kittens, FIV negative, have all of their shots and vet records included.

Story
A Note From Shady`s Foster:Shady has really came out of her shell, she’s super curious and playful. She loves following me around and being apart of anything that’s going on. She’s a little jumpy with loud noises or fast movements but she doesn’t run off and hide, she quickly shakes it off and moves on.As she settled in she has become more open to physical contact but she’s particular on how she likes to be pet. She hasn’t been shy on educating me though and we have learned she loves forehead kisses and chin scratches. She’s sleeps next to me every night and runs up to me when I get home. She’s pretty chatty but in an endearing way. I think with more time she will get even more comfortable with snuggling, a few times now she has come to lay in my lap.Playing is her favorite - she really enjoys wand toys and lasers. She hides under the table and jump scares me as I walk by when she wants to play. She also really likes cat tv and watching the birds fly around.** Adopting from foster is easy! Just contact the adoptions desk at 734-662-5585 or email adoptions@hshv.org to set up a visit today!

Story
we need to give her a loving home as soon as possible!!!She responds and comes up to you when you call her name! She is microchipped, spayed, and a lovable cat!!We adopted her a few months ago, our apartment is 600 sqrft and we do not have enough space for her. She loves to chase her tail, is very active and curious. She loves meeting new people and is not afraid to rub against you or have you pet her. She loves cuddles and is a loving cat, we wish we can keep lele in our home but at this time we just do not have the space for her to live in comfortability. With adopting her you will get; scratching post, hiding den that she sleeps in with a towel to keep her warm and comfortable, automatic food and water stations,small bowls for wet food, a small placemat for the small bowls, a variety of toys, her documentations
