Story
Butters and Elfo are the sweetest, 2.5 year old brothers! They are bonded and will need to find their forever home together. They love to play, snuggle, and lounge around. I’m unsure how they are with other animals, but with how loving they are I'd be surprised if they didn’t make friends easily! Indoor cats but they LOVE to sit in the window, I leave one open for them everyday. We have been fostering them until we can find them their special home.

Story
3-month-old female. Found. Clawdia (Claws for short) is very affectionate and playful. Especially loves to cuddle and make biscuits on any soft surface. She plays hard, so I suspect she will be a good mouser too. Uses litter box. No fleas, no worms. NOT chipped, vaccinated, or spayed. She has a URI/common cold right now (12/17/2025), but the vet said it should resolve on its own soon. I would love to keep her together with her sister (in photos) since they're already bonded. But if you can only take one, and you want her, then please take her. I can't keep them long-term.

Story
I know everyone says their cats are sweet and loving, but I swear all this cat wants is love and affection, unfortunately I don’t have the time money or space to give him much more than that. I live in a studio with his sibling cats and 2 parent cats, and my partner. We are trying really hard (and have been for a while) to find safe loving homes for this last litter. Both parent cats are fixed now so no more worries there. He is litter box trained, cat-friendly (at least with mine lol), indoor only, wears a flea collar just in case, and cuddly.

Luna is incredibly gentle and friendly- always looking for pets and cuddles when its quiet. I've been amazed at how gentle and sweet she is, as it is very clear she is not used to being around loud people or being in a house. ___ She was found outside on a rural road in the middle of the night, crying and hungry. We stopped amd scooped her up but can't keep her as we already have quite a few cats of our own! ___ She has NEVER scratched or attempted to bite, even when I've had to manhandle her, shove her into a car, into a carrier, etc. She has used the litterbox with NO accidents or trouble. She has already been to the vet- we wanted to make sure she wasnt pregnant! She was given shots, testing, and a clean bill of health :)

Story
Little Miss is a LAP CAT! She's only a kitten but loves snuggles already, and constantly wants pets. She does well if left alone, but adores people. Very outgoing and not afraid. ___ Perfectly calm in car rides, neutral to the other pets in the house. She seems well adjusted, but definitely knows how to hunt a mouse judging by the was she plays with toys. ___ She is gentle, but is still a kitten and kneads with a little bit of claw sometimes. A quick "ah!" and she immediately stops- just a baby and doesnt know better yet. ___ Super tolerant, let me give her a good once over, poke around in her mouth and ears, no problem. ___ Little Miss was found while I was working a charity event in town as a caterer, only a couple weeks after Little Lady. Very strange coincidence to be given two little black cats by the universe in such a short time but unfortunately we cannot keep them- we have quite a few cats of our own already. ___ HAS NOT been vetted, or vaccinated yet. Willing to help.

He’s such a loving and kind cat! My cats bred and had a litter about 8 months ago (my cats are both fixed now) and we are still trying to rehome the last of the bunch!! He’s litter box trained, has a flea collar (just in case), fully indoor, gets along well with people and other cats (at least mine lol). I’m really desperate as money is really tight now and I’m starting school soon, plus I live in a studio with my partner and already owned cats so he doesn’t have the proper space!
