Story
My uncle recently passed away in Springfield, Missouri. My mom and I have flown out from California, to try and settle his estate. My uncle has this amazing cat. The cat was very dear to him. There is no way that we can take him back to California with us, and we really want him to have a good home as soon as possible. I am flying home today 3/29, and my mom is flying home next Wednesday 4/3. He is such a loving cat. He loves to sit on laps, purr, and sleep on the bed. In just the short time we've been here, we have fallen in love.

Story
Peaches came to my work and was going to be euthanized if I didn't take her. My family agreed to short-term foster her until we could find an adopter. Once we found someone, they took her, but after 4 days she was returned to us for showing aggression and urinating outside the litterbox. I know it was due to stress because she had been moved 4 times that month. While she was being fostered at my house she was using the litterbox completely and coming out of her shell. She loved to purr, play in catnip, and sleep on the bed. However, she only likes to be touched on her terms. Now my family can't foster her anymore, so we need someone to adopt her for good this time. She does need to be an indoor cat for her safety and because that is what she has been her whole life.

Story
Andros is a gorgeous black and white tuxedo boy with striking green eyes. He has been at Eden since he was a kitten. Andros is a very quiet, kind cat who is shy with new people but loves to snuggle on laps and lick your hand. He loves a new comfy bed or blankey, and like to bat his toys around. He is great with other cats and would be good with calm dogs. This sweet boy would be a wonderful companion for someone working from home or retired.

Story
Hello, I'm Azure. I may be a bit shy, but give me a moment and you'll see my smart, curious side. I'm quite the goofball once I'm comfortable, often exploring new nooks and crannies or trying to outsmart the other cats. I value my independence, but I also have a sweet side that loves gentle pats and quiet moments once I get used to you. I get along well with other cats, so I wouldn't mind sharing a home with a feline friend. A calm, quiet home would be perfect for me. Why should you adopt me? Because I am a unique blend of intelligence, curiosity, and sweetness. I promise to bring joy, laughter, and a touch of mystery to your life. Ive been with Eden since 2021, I just need that person who is willing to give me a chance. Let's make memories together!

Story
Hi hi, I'm Indigo. Life in the shelter is okay, but I dream of a calm, quiet home where I can be my laid back self. I'm sweet, independent, and quiet. My coat is a beautiful, jet black color, and I feel so soft. That's what these humans say anyway. I might be a bit shy at first, but once I get to know you, we'll be the best of friends. My ideal day involves a good nap, a bit of playtime, and lots of cuddles. I'm not one for loud noises or chaos. I would prefer the tranquility of a peaceful home. Adopting me means gaining a loyal companion, who will offer you unconditional love and friendship. I have the cutest, little, squeaky meow that I let out when you're coming up to pet me. Once I see that you'll be gentle with me, I just love getting little pets. It makes me talk because I'm happy, and I'm loving it! I'll even lean into your touch and start rolling around. So, how about it? Are you ready to welcome a chill kitkat like me into your home?

Story
Hello there, I'm Veronica. I've a heart full of love and a soul that thrives on warmth, both from the sun and from my dear sister, Marcie. We're quite the pair, she's my confidante, my playmate, my family. We bask in the sun together, it's our favorite pastime. I'm a bit shy, but once I get to know you, I'll be your most loyal friend. I have a gentle spirit and a curious mind. I enjoy exploring new corners, but I always return to my loved ones. I'm smart, sweet, and friendly, just waiting for the right person to share my love with. Adopting me means gaining a companion who will be loyal and loving, and you'll also be giving my sister and me a chance to keep sunbathing together.

Story
Jovi is about a year old, and she was dropped off with two of her siblings on our farm. She is the sweetest cat and is very needy, so if you love cuddly cats she’s the one for you. She’ll sleep on the bed all night as well. The only thing is she’s pregnant, and about due. We scheduled her spay appointment a week too late and so is our other cat, which is why we can’t take care of two litters of kittens right now as we’re in the process of moving. We love her so much, but she’s just not happy in our new home because we can’t spend as much time with her. She loves dogs (though she may be wary at first), is comfortable around big farm animals and doesn’t kill chickens since she was raised with them. If you can take care of her and need a companion full of little companions, she’s the one for you!
