Story
A little sweet, a little shy, I'm the kind of guy who needs someone to be patient with me and let me warm up to them slowly. Change is a big adjustment for anyone and I'm working on letting my affection show. Just know I'm charming, friendly, curious. Give me a chance-I know you won't leave without me! Please read what the volunteers say about me: "He may be a shy guy, but he seems sweet. He could use a little coaxing."

Story
Aren't I cute? I'm playful, cuddly, and adorable. My challenge? I have a little fungal infection called ringworm, but don't let that scare you! While ringworm may be contagious, it is also very treatable. With some medication, special baths (don't worry I'm used to them!) and a room to call my own, I will be healthy as a normal kitten in a short time.

No need to clean your glasses-I really do look THIS good! Sure, I used to be a Victoria's Secret model but now that I'm retired I just want to be a cat and lounge around on your couch. I'm a social bug (check my Facebook, over 1,000 friends!) so I'd love a social family. Will you friend me today?

Story
TomTom is a big old bundle of love that needs furever home and a person to call his own. He looks intimidating because he is such a big boy, but once he is comfortable with you he is actually just a marshmallow. His favorite thing in the world is to have his face and around his chin stroked and scritched. He will let you do that all day long. Just stay away from his butt - he doesn't like having his butt touched.TomTom actually self-surrendered. He was living on the streets as an unaltered tomcat when he started coming around to eat at our feral feeders. He eventually decided he want to call Catmandu home and actually broke in (twice) to join the family. It took awhile to gain his trust enough that we could get him neutered, but it finally happened and he has been a sweet and loving part of the family ever since.TomTom is leary of strangers, which is why he hasn't gone home with anyone yet. It will take a little time and patience for him to acclimate to a new home and new family, but he is absolutely worth the effort. Safe outdoor access is critical to his happiness. TomTom would not do well as an apartment dweller. A catio would be purrfect. A cat-proof fenced yard would be paradise as well.We are hoping to find him a home before the end of October. Our onsite caretaker, who he has become very attached to, is moving away at that time and he is going to be devastated at being abandoned if she leaves and he is still here. I have no doubt he will deeply bond with a new family, but it is going to be SOOO much better for him if he is happily living with his new family before Tina leaves. If you'd like to meet me and maybe take me home, fill out the Online Pre-Adoption Questionnaire on our website, www.catmanduCC.org (https://www.catmanducc.org/adoptions#:~:text=Fill%20out%20the%20Online%20Pre%2DAdoption%20Questionnaire)Then come by Catmandu Friday through Sunday to meet the kitties and talk with an adoption specialist. Adoption hours are 11 am to 4 pm. Plan to arrive no later than 3 pm so you have time to spend with the cats before adoptions close at 4. Please bring a carrier in case you find your purrfect friend.Renters must bring a copy of their lease showing they are allowed to have a cat.June 23, 2023, 12:21 am

Story
Janie is a sweet one-eyed girl that would love to have a quiet home of her own with a kind and patient person. A small catio would be a huge plus for her as she does love to sit in the sunshine and breathe the fresh air.She was part of a group of 30+ kitties that were surrendered to Catmandu when their owner had to move and could not take the cats with them.While she is a little afraid of people she doesn't know and easily startles, she is super sweet once she is comfortable and loves pets and treats. I believe she would blossom in a home of her own with the right person or family. While she would not do well with small children or in a noisy active household, she would be fine with mellow older children.If you'd like to meet me and maybe take me home, fill out the Online Pre-Adoption Questionnaire on our website, www.catmanduCC.org (https://www.catmanducc.org/adoptions#:~:text=Fill%20out%20the%20Online%20Pre%2DAdoption%20Questionnaire)Then come by Catmandu Friday through Sunday to meet the kitties and talk with an adoption specialist.

Story
Bunny was barely more than a kitten herself when she was discovered living on Johnson Lane under a Lady's deck along with her 4 Kittens. Although we suspect she had belonged to someone once, she had reverted to feral while living on the streets. She was terrified when trapped and brought to us in July 2020 and lashed out at anyone that came near her. With time, patience and a lot of singing (she loves to be sung to) she has made incredible progress. Bunny has become very affectionate with people, once she gets used to you. She is still skittish of strangers and does not like to be picked up but loves to be petted. She will rub against your legs, asking for pets and love. This beautiful and petite little girl is also very playful and has a big personality.While it's possible she may regress a bit when she goes to a new home and require a little more patience and adjustment time than other cats, she will be well worth the effort.If you can't adopt, please consider sponsoring Bunny so she can continue to be safe, loved, warm, well-fed and happy at Catmandu while she waits for her furever person comes to take her home.If you'd like to meet me and maybe take me home, fill out the Online Pre-Adoption Questionnaire on our website, www.catmanduCC.org (https://www.catmanducc.org/adoptions#:~:text=Fill%20out%20the%20Online%20Pre%2DAdoption%20Questionnaire)Then come by Catmandu Friday through Sunday to meet the kitties and talk with an adoption specialist.
