Story
Hi there, I'm Black Beauty! Yes, my name says it all—I’m absolutely stunning, with sleek black fur and curious golden eyes that sparkle in the sunlight. I might be a bit shy when we first meet, but please don’t let that scare you away. I just need a little time and patience to feel safe… but once I do, I promise you'll get to see my soft, sweet side. And let me tell you—I'm worth the wait. I love other cats and enjoy playing with my feline friends! My favorite toys? Wand toys, spinning butterfly toys, and pretty much anything that moves. I’m always up for a game! Treats are a close second—whether it’s crunchy or lickable, I’ll take it, please and thank you. When I’m not playing or snacking, you’ll find me curled up in a cozy bed or basking in the sun like the little queen I am. If you're kind, patient, and looking for a loyal companion who will blossom in a loving home come meet me from 1-5pm — I just might be your girl. Let’s take it slow and see where our journey goes. I have excellent litter box habits. My new perfect family NEEDS to that understands it WILL take me a while to adjust at first and I WILL hide as I adjust. Give me time, patience, and use food as a tool to get me out of my shell - I really am a wonderful cat. I am fully vetted: spayed, microchipped, FIV&FeLV negative, and up-to-date on all my vaccinations. I require an indoor only home and as with all cats - absolutely no declawing. If you are interested in adopting Black Beauty, please message us on Facebook at Furball Farm Cat Sanctuary or email us at FurballFarmCatSanctuary@gmail.com

Story
Meet Carrot Cake! “Sweet as sugar, soft as frosting, and cute enough to eat (but please don’t)!” Hi there, I’m Carrot Cake — a tabby calico girl with the kind of face that makes people say “oh my goodness!” every single time they see me. I might be a little shy when we first meet, but once I know you’re a friend, I’ll melt faster than butter on a warm biscuit. Once I’m comfy, I just can’t get enough of your love! I’ll lean into every pet, purr up a storm, and even follow you from cat tree to cat tree asking for more. And if you stop before I’m ready? You might get a gentle little “love tap” from my paw, just my way of saying, “Hey, I wasn’t done being adored!” I’m a fan of cozy beds, crunchy treats, toys, and a sprinkle of catnip for good measure. I get along wonderfully with other cats and don’t mind being held for short snuggles. If you’re looking for a soft, sweet companion who’ll fill your home (and heart) with warmth, I might just be your purrfect dessert. Come meet me at our sanctuary! I’d love to meet you any day from 1–5 PM! I have excellent litter box habits. My new perfect family NEEDS to understand that it WILL take me a while to adjust at first and I WILL hide as I settle in. Give me time, patience, and use food as a tool to get me out of my shell — I really am a wonderful cat. I am fully vetted: spayed, microchipped, FIV & FeLV negative, and up-to-date on all my vaccinations. I require an indoor-only home and, as with all cats — absolutely no declawing.

Story
Meet Winston – The Old Soul in a Kitten’s Body Hello there, kind human. My name is Winston, and though I may only be a young orange-and-white kitten, my eyes hold stories far older than my age. You see, I didn’t have the easiest start to life. I spent my earliest days outside, learning the world the hard way — hungry, cold, and a little scared. But I never gave up, and that’s how I found my way here, to this wonderful sanctuary. Now, life is good. I have soft beds, gentle hands that love me, and more food than I could ever dream of. I’m safe, warm, and learning that the world can be kind. I’ll admit — I’m a bit shy when I first meet someone new. I like to take my time and make sure you’re as gentle as you look. But once I trust you, I’ll show you my true self: a sweet, affectionate boy who loves belly rubs, head scratches, and hearing how adorable I am (which, if I may say so, is very true). I’m also a social little fellow who enjoys cuddling and playing with my cat friends. If you already have feline companions, I’d be thrilled to join their circle for nap time or toy adventures. If you’d like to meet me — and maybe share some quiet, wise gazes together — you can come visit me any day between 1–5 PM at our sanctuary. I’ll be waiting, curled up in a sunny spot, dreaming of my forever home. With love (and a soft purr),

Meet Izzy! 
Foster Location: Faribault, Minnesota Hi! I’m Izzy, a tiny tabby-and-white girl with big curious eyes and an even bigger heart. When I first meet someone new, I like to take a moment to quietly observe — I’m a thoughtful little kitten, after all. But don’t let my initial shyness fool you! Once I feel safe, I open up quickly and become the sweetest, snuggliest little companion you could ask for. I love to play, and I mean LOVE. Toys that bounce, toys that crinkle, toys that I can chase across the room — I’m ready for all of it. I also have a blast romping around with my foster siblings; they help me feel brave, and we have so much fun together. After I’ve gotten all my zoomies out, I’m all about cozy naps, warm laps, and soft beds where I can curl up and purr myself to sleep. Because I’m such a social girl and rely on kitty friends for comfort and confidence, I need to be adopted with one of my foster siblings or go to a home that already has a friendly cat. Kittens do best in pairs, and I’m at my happiest when I have another cat buddy to play with and cuddle. If you’re looking for a gentle, playful sweetheart who just wants to love and be loved, I think we might be a perfect match. I can’t wait to meet my forever family — maybe it’s you? I am fully vetted: spayed, microchipped, FIV&FeLV negative, and up-to-date on all my vaccinations. I require an indoor only home and as with all cats - absolutely no declawing. If you are interested in adopting Izzy, please contact her foster at (507) 581-4493

Story
Hi, I’m Guth – your future best friend. 🐾
Gray and white, soft as a cloud, and full of love. I’m not just a cat — I’m a lap-sitting, head-butting, treat-loving, nap-in-the-sun kind of guy who will absolutely charm your socks off. I love people. Like, seriously love them. If you sit down, I will be in your lap before you can say “catnip.” And if you have catnip toys? Oh buddy, we’re already besties. Let’s talk about talking. I do it. A lot. I’ve got a lot to say, and I love when people talk back. Conversations with me are never boring — I might chirp, meow, trill, or even sing you the song of my people if I’m feeling dramatic (or hungry). I also have a bit of a story. The kind that involves me walking more than 10 miles just to find my way back to someone I cared about. Yeah. I’m that loyal. So if you're looking for a cat who will love you deeply, stick with you through thick and thin, and maybe even follow you to the ends of the earth... I’m your guy. All I ask for is a cozy bed, some good snacks, a few head scritches, and someone to love. In return, you’ll get a companion who’s sweet, affectionate, and always ready to make your day better. Come meet me any day between 1-5pm. I’ve already picked out your lap. 🐱❤️ I am fully vetted: neutered, microchipped, FIV&FeLV negative, and up-to-date on all my vaccinations. I require an indoor only home and as with all cats - absolutely no declawing. If you are interested in adopting Guth, please message us on Facebook at Furball Farm Cat Sanctuary or email us at FurballFarmCatSanctuary@gmail.com

Story
Hi there, I’m Summer! I’m a tiny brown tabby girl with big curious eyes and a heart that’s learning how to be brave. I might be a little shy when we first meet — new people and places can be a lot for a small kitten like me — but give me a little time and some gentle patience, and I’ll start to come out of my shell. Once I feel safe, you’ll see the real me: playful, sweet, and full of purrs! I love toys of all kinds — fuzzy mice, wand toys, jingly balls… if it moves, I’m chasing it. I also have the best time wrestling and zooming around with my foster siblings, so I’d be happiest in a home with another playful kitty friend (or maybe you’ll adopt one of my buddies with me? That would be the best!). Kittens do best in pairs — we learn important social skills from each other, keep each other entertained, and adjust to new homes more easily. So I’m looking for a home where I’ll have a young feline companion to grow up with, whether that’s one of my siblings or a playful resident cat. If you're looking for a gentle, playful little girl who will grow into your best friend with just a bit of love and time, I think we might be a perfect match. I am fully vetted: spayed, microchipped, FIV&FeLV negative, microchipped, and up-to-date on all my vaccinations. I require an indoor only home and as with all cats - absolutely no declawing. You can come meet me any day between 1-5pm at our sanctuary!
