We found him abandoned, and no one has come to claim him. He’s a sweet guy with a big personality. He loves attention and will cry for you to give it to him. He eats wet food, as from what I can see he does not have all his teeth.

Story
This handsome, FIV+ hunk, named Quartz is a community cat I’ve been feeding for about 2 years. I am so glad to have been able to trap and help him before having to endure another brutal winter outside. He’s been fostered & receiving medical care since early October. Quartz is fully vetted- microchipped, vaccinated, & neutered. He is currently on a prescription diet to support his GI, since also having to go through a treatment for parasites (Hills GI Biome). He’s had follow up stool and blood panels to confirm eradication of parasites and no other GI issues. Quartz is the sweetest, gentlest soul. He loves to greet my wife and I with chirps and is eager to rest on our chest and give us kisses in the morning. He also has a playful side, which has been so fun teaching him what toys are & how to play for fun! He is sensitive to high energy, or loud sounds, so he would thrive in a mellow household where he is a single cat or paired with another calm demeanor kitty.

Story
George is the youngest of the Marigold kittens, and he is a genius. He hit all his kitten milestones a week early; he's the first to figure out the litter box, the first to climb to the top of the kitten tower, and the first to come up for petting. That said, he's 8 weeks old; he's still figuring things out. Don't ask him to do your taxes until at least 12 weeks. He is very energetic, and sometimes plays too rough for Hazel, but they still sleep together in the cat hammock. The Marigold kittens were born in my house after their mom came up to me outside a movie theater in St. Paul and asked to be picked up. We got her fed and medicated, and her babies were born healthy, early in the morning on 09/29/2025. George must be adopted with Hazel. Adoption fee will be donated to a local rescue.

Story
Calcifer is a friendly and affectionate 1-year-old black cat (born May 1, 2024 to a friends barn cat). He is exceptionally social and cuddly. He loves meeting new people, being picked up, smooshed, and carried around like a baby. He’s fearless and curious and talkative. Unfortunately, he is not the right match for my other cat, who is shy and anxious. Calcifer wants to play and wrestle, which means constantly tackling my timid cat, and that cat has been getting sick with anxiety. Cal might do well with another confident, playful cat. Since he’s so comfortable being handled, he might do well with kids. Cal is healthy and happy, but was born with a rear right leg deformity (pictured). It does not slow him him. He runs, climbs, and plays just fine, but he cannot jump as high as other cats. Vets recommend an amputation to avoid arthritis in the long term from his unusual gait. He needs a booster on his shots.
