Story
Give Loki a chance to come out of her shell and you'll have a best friend for life. Now that Loki is comfortable in her foster home, she's confident, social and curious. She chirps at me in the morning like she's saying hello and follows me around like a puppy. When she's sleepy, she'll curl up against me and purr. She loves catnip, chasing cat toys, and watching birds from the window. When Loki meets a new person, she'll approach them right away and sit in their lap. Loki can get overstimulated and will sometimes try to nip a new person, so it’s important to notice her body language and follow her lead. Loki may have been mistreated earlier in life, so she needs some time to truly feel safe so that her affectionate, confident personality can shine. Loki doesn't get along with other cats so she needs to be an only cat. She would do best with an experienced cat owner. She has waited so long for someone to choose her. If you want to make a difference for Loki, please get in touch!

Story
Nyx is a friendly kitten who will be 1 year old soon (August 29). His nick name is urji (pronounced "oor-jee"), which means a star in Oromo language. He likes playing with my kids a lot. He also likes playing with water that dripping from a faucet. He always comes to my daughter's bunk bed in the morning and wakes her up. He is a walking friendly alarm:). We adopted Nyx with his twin sister Palom when they were 4 months old. We want our two lovely kittens live together. So, we are looking for somebody who could adopt both.

Story
Nala is an absolute sweetheart 💖 She loves to sleep on my lap. She also loves to run through the house in the afternoon playing with her toys. She would do good with another sweet cat, but she would also do great alone. She's never been around dogs but I'm sure she would adjust to a well behave one. She is a little shy with strangers, but warms up quickly. She will do best in a home with less pets than we have. She's indoor only. She does great with the litterbox and has a sweet baby meow. She's 2 years old.

Story
Princess is a special girl. She looks to be about 1 year old. We are not sure. She was dumped off at the park this past summer. I found her, and took her home. She was initially hissy, so I fixed her thinking she may be a feral, that's why her left ear tip is clipped. It turns out she was hissy because she hates my cats. She doesn't like other cats and definitely not dogs. She will do best in a home without other animals or small children. She just likes to be respected. She has become very affectionate over the past few weeks now that she feels safe. She loves to be held and always wants me to kiss her on the head. She sleeps next to me in bed and likes pets. She has perfect litterbox etiquette and is a quiet sweet girl. She loves when I talk yo her and tell her how pretty she is. She has superior intelligence!! I love her but I need to find a home for her away from other animals so she can live her best life🥰

Jumbo and Newbie love their humans and will cuddle with you anytime you need love! We are needing a new home because our owner is moving soon and will not be able to take me along to the new place. Since we are brothers we will always stay together. We love to run around and chase toys and would love a home that our future owner can be around a lot!

Story
Tiger is extremely affectionate and loving. She loves getting under the cover and snuggling with you. She adores being brushed. She has gotten along with a dog in the past, but he was extremely gentle with her. She CANNOT live in a house with other cats. She does need at least 2 litter boxes or she will go where she hides. She will hide at first in a new home. But, she likes people and attention so she usually comes out for pets pretty quickly. I'm only giving her up because she does not get along with my other cats. Right now she is living in my bedroom, and it's I don't think it's fair to her to stay in one room that I don't spend a lot of time in. I'm looking for someone that wants a sweet companion, because, as I said, she is very social and affectionate with people once she gets comfortable with them.

Story
Princess is the sweetest most intelligent cat I have ever rescued! I just love her to death. Unfortunately she doesn't like other cats or dogs. I have several rescue cats and she just won't accept them. I would love to see her in a home where she can have plenty of her own space and feel comfortable without other animals. She does fine around my 1 year old baby but she would rather not be around kids. She loves to cuddle and will sometimes jump into my arms when she wants to be held. I rescued her from the park where someone dumped her a few months ago. She seems comfortable around new people for the most part. I think she would be pretty brave going into a new home without animals. She always greets me with a little meow when she sees me.. but is not over talkative. She loves having someone to hang out with and loves the social interaction. She's definitely a "people" cat.
