Story
Ally is a beautiful and sweet kitty. She enjoys a window seat as she is mesmerized by the birds and butterflies that flutter before her eyes. Then, Ally seeks out her hammock or a sunny place for an afternoon nap. Ally likes to keep all four paws grounded, she is not fond of being picked up and held; however, with time and patience you may be able to win her over. She welcomes head petting! Ally shows fear and discomfort from loud noises such as vacuum cleaners and thunder. A cat cube of her own would be ideal for her comfort zone. Ally’s ideal home is one with older children. She tolerates cats and dogs if they keep their distance. She loves Harvest Dental treats! Ally is 4 years old with a harlequin pattern (white w/large silver tabby patches).

Story
Zoey is independent and has the typical tortoiseshell "tortitude!" She seeks out her favorite spot and claims it. Zoey is calm, carefree, minds her own business and does not require lots of human attention, although she loves head massages. She is not vocal, but when it's time to eat Zoey will produce a deep meow. Her ideal home is one that is fairly calm with older children. Zoey will tolerate other cats and a cat-friendly dog as long as they don't get in her space. She is 5 years old with a perfect tortoiseshell pattern.

Story
Duchess is calm, relaxed, quiet and will pick a favorite spot to hang out. She welcomes attention from her human companion and will head bump for petting. Her favorite toy is a fabric-covered ball as she can pick it up with her paws and toss it around. Duchess may be shy in new surroundings, but with time to explore she will find comfort. Her ideal family is one with older children; a home that is fairly calm. Duchess tolerates adult cats, may hiss as those that get in her space; she is nurturing to young cats. Duchess is accustomed to cat-friendly dogs. She is a 2-year old torbie (patched tabby) with green eyes and a stout figure; Duchess carries excess fat in her belly that brings on her cuteness!

Story
Pogo is happy, friendly and outgoing. He kicks around balls with bells, likes to swat at a toy on the end of a string and can have a good time with a simple cotton ball! Pogo is inquisitive and seeks out his human companion for attention. He will rest near you and sleep by your side. At times, Pogo thinks all the excitement is outside; he is a door darter. Being in charge of his own in-and-out schedule is appealing to him, however, Pogo does not realize that zipping out the door can have consequences. His new home should not be near busy streets, around neighbors that do not welcome pets or an area with a habitat of coyotes, foxes, etc. Pogo's ideal family is one with or without children. He chooses cats that he likes to be around, he will hiss at the others. Pogo should be good with a cat-friendly dog. He is 3 years old and has a black coat with a white locket and white mittens.

Story
Christopher was recently adopted from the Humane Society, but I am unable to take care of him due to my financial situation. He loves cuddles and is a very playful boy. He is very loving and should go to a home with individuals who are willing to take on a high energy cat. He is currently 4 months. It is unknown how he interacts with dogs, but he does well with other cats and young children.

Story
LOW ALLERGEN CAT I typically have pretty severe allergies when it comes to cats, but my symptoms have been very low to minimal around her! She is currently eating Purina’s LIVE CLEAR kitten food. Found her as a stray about 2 months ago, got her up to date on shots, flea medication, and had her fixed. She is the prettiest cat and very sociable! She will follow you around and always wants to be close to you. She loves to curl up on the couch with you while you watch your favorite show (she sometimes tries to steal my popcorn!). I would highly recommend adopting her with the intention of having a second cat as the kitten energy is real (vet says she’s around 6 months). She does sleep through the night without disruptions, but could use a buddy during zoomies. I just want her to go to a good home, all food and toys will be included.

Story
Trish favors a cat window perch to watch the butterflies go by or the leaves blow in the wind or the rain fall. She is cautious around new people or new environment; give Trish a few days to become comfortable so she can socialize with her new family. She makes use of a scratching post to manicure her nails and finds entertainment and solitude in a cozy corrugated cottage hut. Trish's favorite time to play is nighttime! Her ideal home is one that is fairly calm with an individual, couple or family; Trish is accustomed to being around children and prefers calm kids over rambunctious ones! She has not been observed around other cats or a cat-friendly dog. Trish is a 2-year-old brown tiger tabby with white mittens, white blaze, white cheeks, white chin, a nose that is half pink and half black, and attractive hazel eyes.

Story
Miranda is calm, gentle and a quiet kitty. She spends her day in a favorite place. Miranda takes in the day by lounging around, she is inactive, somewhat of a “couch potato!” Miranda welcomes petting especially on top of the head. She is ideal for someone who is not home often as she does not require constant attention and has her limits of petting and holding. Miranda does not like to be over stimulated and will make you aware with a “meow.” She is independent and not needy. She is not a lap cat (that's the British in her!), but she does like to be near her human companion. Miranda’s ideal home is with an individual, couple or family with older children as she will not be playful with the younger kids. Miranda is accustomed to being around other cats but would be fine without cats. Miranda will do okay around a dog that does not overly interact with her. She is a 12-year-old blue American Shorthair/British Shorthair with a tiger tabby pattern. Miranda has a broad face, stocky body, thick coat and dainty paws.

Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Mercy has established solace in her name as she has found compassion on two occasions -- 1) when a compassionate citizen picked her up from the highway after being hit by a vehicle and took Mercy for medical care, and 2) when a compassionate foster volunteer brought Mercy to a home environment upon the request of an animal clinic when her caretaker requested Mercy be euthanized because she has a compromised immune system. Mercy is shy and reserved; she will need to establish compassion and trust with her new human companion. Her relationship will be built upon assurance, certainty, confidence and patience along with time. Mercy is laid back, quiet and fond of petting. She is pleased by laying in cardboard boxes or adores a window seat. Mercy prefers to move around on 4-powered paws than being carried from place-to-place. Her safety zone is under a bed when she feels threatened. Mercy's ideal home is one with a calm environment where she will be the only indoor feline; a home where Mercy can explore freely at her own pace. She is a great companion cat for someone who doesn't need a velcro kitty! Mercy is 6 years old and has a tortoiseshell pattern with white. She has an immunodeficiency virus (FIV) that may lead to increased susceptibility to infections. Mercy currently does not have clinical signs of the virus.
