Story
We adopted Brooklyn on October 1st, 2023, from the Humane Society. She was very shy in the enclosure, but once we went into a meeting room with her, she quickly got attached to my mom and was interested in the people next door to us. This was the first pet we ever owned, not even having had a dog in the past, because my mom and I were uncomfortable with them. She was easy to own for the time we had her. Brooklyn is sweet, affectionate, and curious. She'll follow you around and is very social and likes to cuddle. She can be smart when she wants to be. We're hoping she can be placed in a home that will give her lots of attention and play with her. She's gained weight recently because no one wants to play with her, and she's begun scratching furniture and walls due to low stimulation. The ideal home for her is one with someone who wants to play, so she never gets bored.

Story
Pepper’s exact age is unknown but we estimate she is about 6 years old. She was adopted from a Cat Cafe so she is well socialized with adults, kids, and other cats. She does well with dogs too. Overall, she is an amazing and easy cat to own. She is sweet, cuddly, and gentle. Has never hissed or scratched at anyone in her life. Just a total sweetheart. Last thing is that she is a very vocal lady! We really want to make sure she goes to an amazing home! She deserves a family that will love and cherish her.

Story
Meet my beautiful boy Elio! Lovingly known as my "sun son." Named after the sun, I've raised him since he was a kitten in 2023, and he is my absolute pride and joy. He is a delightfully chunky, vocal companion who loves to communicate his feelings with plenty of meows. While he can be a little standoffish at first and might hiss or give a gentle, playful bite when he’s feeling sassy, he has a truly gentle heart and would never actually hurt anyone. He’s an independent spirit who simply likes things his way, and he is deeply loved. Heartbreakingly, I must rehome him due to the ongoing costs of his asthma medication and a recent behavioral habit of peeing on soft fabrics when he gets upset. I am looking for a patient, loving, and safe home with someone who can afford his medical care and is experienced enough to patiently manage his behavior quirks. Because he means the world to me, my greatest hope is to find an adopter who is willing to stay in touch and share occasional photo updates.

Story
Amelia (Mimi) is a wonderful 4 year old cat who we are only looking to rehome because our baby has developed eczema from cat dander. Our baby is 6 months old and we have tried for the last 4 months a number of different solutions as suggested by her allergist (HEPA air purifiers near litter boxes, regular grooming appointments, and multiple deep cleanings of the floor and rugs where our baby plays). Unfortunately, these haven’t worked as well as we’d like. We are heartbroken over this situation but we are doing what we think is best for our baby. She is very sweet and loves to lay on your lap after dinner for back scratches after she gets to know you. We believe she’d do best in a household with older children, and with someone who is home most of the day to give her attention. She loves a calmer environment and we believe the new baby has caused her some stress. She currently lives with another cat, but they are not bonded. We would really like her to get the attention she deserves.

Story
We are looking for a forever home for this pair-bonded daddy-daughter duo! Baby cat can be shy, but hang around and she’ll come out to say hello. Daddy cat is the strongest and sweetest boi you’ll ever meet; built like a panther with a love for scritches. If they’re not playing, expect to see these two lounging and grooming each other. Baby cat was born in our backyard in May 2025. We think Daddy cat is about 5-7 years old. Both walked right into our house and are looking for a life off the street! Baby and Daddy have been fixed, had their medical checkups, and received a full suite of vaccinations. Medical records are available. Details are below: Baby Cat: Tabby female, spayed, 7lb, 1 year old, FELV and FIV negative. Daddy Cat: Black tom, neutered, 15lb, approx. 5 years old, FELV negative, FIV positive Please note Baby and Daddy are pair bonded and must be adopted together. We are asking a $50 adoption fee to offset some of the costs of their veterinary care.
