Story
Hi, my name is Leaf, I am from Texas. From the foster: Leaf is a very sweet kitten, and a little shy! She loves to have a cozy space she feels safe in, and has been slower to explore her foster home, but every day she gets a little braver, especially with the encouragement of her sibling Pablo! Even though she is a bit nervous, she is so so sweet and once she gets totally comfortable she will be the most loving and gentle cat! She loves her wet food, looking out the window, and cuddling with Pablo.

Story
A portion of my adoption fee has been sponsored by my friends at The Murray Fund. The adoption fee sponsorship credit of $100.00 will be applied during the contract process Hi, my name is Hootie! I'm a transfer from a local impound in MN. From the foster: Hi, I'm Hootie! I bet you have never met a kitten as spunky as me! I love to do all your typical kitten things like running, jumping and pouncing! But you know what I love more? Wrestling! Once all my wrestling charades are over, I'm ready to snuggle and show you my soft side. I came into the rescue as a single kitten with no siblings, so I'm still learning to be a gentleman. Because I didn't have siblings to show me the ropes, I'm still a little mouthy and can play a bit rough with other cats and dogs, which means I might not be the best choice for small children. I would love to have a buddy to play with and continue to show me to be the best little kitty I can be! Medical Bio:Hello! Throughout my veterinary care at Secondhand Hounds, it was discovered that I have a grade 4/6 heart murmur. I had a cardiologist and echocardiogram performed. The SHH Vet Team recommends that I stay on my current medication and have an echocardiogram rechecked in 6 months. My future adopter can choose to pursue further cardiac consultation/treatment per a primary veterinarian's recommendations at their own expense.

Story
Hi, my name is Gizmo! I'm an owner surrender from Minnesota! From the foster: Gizmo is a very easy going cat. She's affectionate and wants to be petted any time she's not eating or sleeping. She likes to sleep on the bed. She likes to get a treat or two at bedtime. Then she will snuggle by your side and want more petting. She likes to look out the window at the birds in the yard. She's a senior cat so she's not energetic. She likes her horizontal scratcher but has shown no interest in the cat tree, the kitchen counter or anything that requires higher than the bed. She's very easy to take care of. She's a senior cat and I've been giving her canned senior cat food. She likes drinking from the tap in the bathtub. I live alone so I don't know how she will do with other pets or children. She likes to be petted but when she's had enough she will let you know. Older cats often develop health issues. In her case it's Stage 1 kidney disease which is very common. It doesn't require any special care or food at this time. She does pee a lot. She was throwing up hairballs regularly so she's getting smaller meals more often and that seems to help. How she will do with kids or other pets is unknown but I think older children who know how to be gentle would be ok. Medical Bio:While being looked at by the Veterinarian at SHH Vet Center, my urine was tested and found to be more dilute than is normal for cats and my kidney enzymes showed that I may have Stage 1 IRIS chronic kidney disease. No treatments or diet changes are required for me at this stage, but my future adopter should pursue annual care such as bloodwork and urine testing with a primary care vet.

Story
Hi, I'm Turtle Dove. I'm a transfer from a local MN shelter. From the foster: Turtle Dove is one independent lady. Her personality starts to shine bright once she gets to know you. She loves her chin scracthes and her cuddles. She has her zoomies and likes to solo play. She can be picky about her food and generally likes things her way and she isn't afraid to let you know. She's definitely a cat who takes a while to warm up, but once she does you'll find a loyal friend. She sleeps a lot and loves anything warm (heat pad, vents, blankets) so you can usually find her snoozing. She does ok with other cats, it just takes slow intros. She doesn't love kittens because she doesn't like to be pounced on or swatted at. Medical Bio: "Hi! My name is Turtle Dove and I cannot wait to meet you and settle into my forever home. I will need a home that is special and can provide some extra TLC. I have had a few issues that have been ongoing since I arrived in rescue. My main medical struggles have been with my arthritis/degenerative bone disease, currently being treated with a monthly injection, issues related to my Stage 2 chronic kidney disease, asthma and a few teeth that got extracted a few months ago. Kidney disease is fairly common in older kitties and cats that have a good plan for medical management can still live very full lives! My struggles have manifested in some loss of appetite or struggles with eating and occasionally blood in my urine. I will likely be on a prescription kidney diet for my remaining years. My foster mom says I have been dealing with my inhaler well and my asthma is well managed at this stage. I know it seems like I have a lot going on, however my vet team is very hopeful that I will continue to improve as long as my future family is able to keep up with this management plan! Hope to meet you soon, I know you'll fall in love with me in my golden years of being the perfect lap cat!"

Story
I am Uno. I am from Minnesota. From her foster: Uno is shy and seems to be a one person cat. She only spends time with my daughter. Uno doesn't like to be held or sit on your lap. We have to bring her in to get her nails clipped every 4-5 weeks. She won't allow us to do it at home. Uno would adapt to a smaller family without pets. She eats cat food, but would prefer people food. She was a stray before we received her November 2023

Story
Yvette is a sweet little girl looking for a home of her own. She has come from not wanting to be touched to wanting to sit in my lap a lot. She will need some time to gain the trust of her new family. She probably would not do well with young children. She does well with 2 of the resident cats. She and the third one simply have a dislike of each other. She also is okay with the household dogs who are pretty easy going. It has been a long journey with her but she is finally ready for a family of her own.    Yvette enjoys the breeze through her fur as she chases a catnip toy down the hallway and zooms from room to room. After a good play session, she curls up for a nap under a warm sunbeam, slowly stretching as she sunbathes in her slumber. Yvette regularly perches next to her human, whether on the edge of the couch, atop the bookshelf or tucked into a corner preferring to survey the scene before engaging.    She should only go to a home with kids of high school age or above as higher energy younger kids cause her to wilt. Yvette does nip in unfamiliar situations, so she will need a patient and understanding human to give her time to gain confidence and trust.    ##1749241##

Story
Austina is a sweet girl who is great with other cats. She can be a little shy when meeting new people, but will come around quickly!  She is ok with small dogs but is afraid of large dogs. She does love toys, as well as her cat tree and hammock. Another cat that will interact with her in the home would be ideal. She has not been around children and the energy of young human kiddos might be a bit much for her, older, respectul, kiddos would be fine.         ##1749201##

Story
Beckett, AKA Beans, is a handsome little hooligan! He's still very much a kitten at heart and loves to hunt for bugs, bat around and chew on strings and toys, chase his tail, sit in windows and do kitty zoomies! He gets along well with the cats, dogs and kids in the home and doesn't mind when visitors come. He has a somewhat intense desire for human food. During meal prep, cooking and eating, we often put him in his own space so that we can eat in peace. He tends to gravitate more towards self play, play with other cats or play with humans using wands/feathers/etc. and isn't much of a snuggler. He does like a lot of attention, but only on his terms. He tends to dislike being picked up/held and will usually jump on my lap when he decides he wants pets. He's somewhat "chatty" too!   Would likely do best in an active home with other pets, especially another cat friend to play with. Fully litter box trained and an overall sweet and goofy guy!       ##1810785##

Story
Hello there, I'm Tootsie, and I have a story to tell you! My journey began alongside my best buddy Timmy when we found ourselves in a local shelter as strays. It wasn't easy at first – we were both so skinny and frail that we needed a special re-feeding plan to get back on our paws. But with lots of care and nourishment, we're now healthy and full of life! I may be a bit on the shy side, but underneath that, there's a hint of sassiness that adds a little sparkle to my personality. Once I feel safe and loved, I'm all about cuddles and playtime! I've also got a knack for getting along with other feline friends, so you can count on me to be a great companion to your existing fur babies. It's important that you know Timmy and I are not a bonded pair. While I'm more than happy to find my forever home solo, there's something special about me and Timmy together. We're like two peas in a pod, and we're offering a sweet deal – a 20% discount on our combined adoption fees if you take us both home. Double the love, double the purrs! So, what do you say? Are you ready to open your heart and home to a duo of charming cats like us? We promise to fill your days with joy, laughter, and endless affection. Let's make some memories together – adopt us today! ##1969089##

Story
Hey there, I'm Tiki, and let me tell you, I'm quite the distinguished gentleman at 10 years young. Now, you might be curious how a cool cat like me ended up here, right? Well, let's just say I narrowly dodged a close call—I was almost out of lives because of some bathroom business. Yep, it's true, I'm a bit particular about my bathroom habits; because I'm a bigger boy, I need a bigger litter box and for you to keep it clean for me. Otherwise, I may go poopy on the side of the box. But hey, who can blame me? I just like to keep things clean and tidy. After all, would you want to step into your own mess? But here's the good news: the vet says I'm in tip-top shape, just need to shed a few pounds. And you know what? I'm making progress on that front. Slow and steady wins the race, they say. Now, about my furry roommates—I'll be honest, I'm not exactly their biggest fan. But can you blame me when they're always in my space? I'm more of a keep-to-myself kinda guy. So, if you respect my boundaries, I'll happily do the same. What I'm really dreaming of is a home where things move at a relaxed pace and it's nice and quiet. Somewhere I can kick back, relax, and enjoy the finer things in life. Sound like your place? If you're looking for a chill companion who knows how to appreciate the little things, then look no further. I'm Tiki, and I'm ready to bring some laid-back vibes into your life. Let's make some memories together, shall we? ##2010917##
