Story
Stanley is a semi-independent soul looking for a peaceful place to finally relax and be himself. He became very skittish when his previous family welcomed their first baby—and with another on the way, they knew this quiet boy deserved a calmer home where he doesn’t have to hide to feel safe. Stanley may bond closely with one or two people, offering soft requests for attention on his terms, but he’s perfectly content simply sharing space with those he trusts.This handsome polydactyl gentleman has extra toes that will need regular nail trims, as they don’t always wear down naturally. He’s definitely a “four paws on the floor” cat—being picked up isn’t his thing—but he’ll seek out affection when he’s comfortable. Stanley would thrive in a quiet home with no dogs or young kids, and he’d enjoy having a calm feline friend or two. Give him a dedicated space to decompress for at least a week before any introductions, and he’ll settle in at his own gentle pace, ready to enjoy the quiet life he’s been waiting for.

Story
Goose was trapped on a local property after hanging around for several months, and he’s made it clear that the outdoor life is where he feels safest. Still fully feral in nature, Goose would be happiest living as a working barn cat where he can keep to himself, explore on his own terms, and enjoy the freedom he’s used to.He’s gotten along well with the other barn cats here and would likely settle in nicely with other animals in a barn setting. Goose may stay hidden at first, but once he acclimates, he’ll be ready to patrol, hunt, and do all the important work a great barn cat does best.If you need a dedicated barn guardian, Goose is your guy!

Story
Meet Scooby, a quiet and sensitive spirit cat who came to us as an unclaimed stray. He’s a shy guy who prefers to keep to himself and may hiss or swat if startled, but he isn’t aggressive—just unsure of the world around him. With patience, gentle routines, and respect for his space, Scooby has the potential to grow more comfortable over time.He’ll need to start in a small, quiet room with a safe hiding spot and access to his essentials while he decompresses for several weeks. Scooby will likely benefit from living with another friendly, confident cat and would do best in a calm home with older children (12+). If you’re someone who understands that trust takes time and are happy to love a cat from a distance until he’s ready, Scooby might be the perfect fit.

Story
Hathor was trapped as a stray feral cat by an ACO after a report came in about a feral mom and kittens living on a property. With the cold weather approaching, they wanted to ensure she could move into a proper barn home where she’d have reliable shelter when needed.Hathor is a very feral girl who is fully accustomed to outdoor life. She’ll make an excellent working cat—ready to help keep your barn, tack room, garage, or attic free of pesky vermin. She prefers to keep her distance from people but is hardworking, independent, and low-maintenance.Like most feral cats, Hathor will need to be trapped for any future medical care. To help her successfully adjust, she should begin in an enclosed space within her new barn home for up to a month. This gives her time to acclimate, learn her new territory, and understand where to return for food and shelter.If you’re looking for a capable, outdoor-savvy working cat, Hathor is ready for her new barn life.

Story
Meet Mac, the definition of a laid-back gentleman. During the day, he’s content to do his own thing—lounging on his favorite pillows, investigating the kitchen for any stray snacks, or casually adventuring through the basement. But when bedtime rolls around? Mac transforms into a full-on snuggle buddy who must curl up with his humans for the night.He’s an easygoing, adaptable guy who truly goes with the flow. His foster family says they’ve never seen a cat integrate so effortlessly with the other pets in the home, so he’d be thrilled to have some friendly furry siblings. That said, he’d also be perfectly happy soaking up the love as your one-and-only. If you’re looking for a mellow, affectionate companion who brings calm vibes and nighttime cuddles, Mac is your guy.
