Roya is 6 years old. We adopted her from CLT Humane Society a few years ago but now have two children and she has not done well with all the change. She’s extremely cuddly (will sleep with you) and sweet and I have never seen her be aggressive. She loves to play fetch and go outside on the porch.

Story
Garfield's Story ❤️ Garfield is proof that every cat deserves a chance. For more than a year, this handsome orange boy was lovingly cared for by compassionate neighbors as a community cat. When Friends of Feral Felines brought him in through our TNVR program, everyone hoped he'd simply return to his outdoor home. But sometime later, Garfield wasn't looking quite right, so he was brought back for a veterinary exam. That's when he tested positive for Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). Instead of sending him back outside, Garfield was welcomed into foster care—where he quickly showed everyone what a truly special cat he is. Garfield is incredibly affectionate and has the sweetest personality. He adores gentle head rubs, comes running when you call his name (especially if tuna is involved!), and happily makes the most adorable biscuits on soft blankets. He's the kind of cat who simply wants to love and be loved. The good news is that veterinary experts agree that FeLV-positive cats can enjoy happy, fulfilling lives and deserve loving homes. Garfield would thrive as an only cat, with other FeLV-positive cats, or with FeLV-negative cats that are appropriately vaccinated after discussing the risks with your veterinarian. Like all FeLV-positive cats, he should live indoors and receive routine veterinary care. Garfield has already overcome so much. Now all he needs is someone willing to see beyond his diagnosis and recognize the wonderful companion he truly is. Could you be the kind-hearted person who gives Garfield the loving forever home he deserves? We are happy to provide information on Feline Leukemia Positive Cats. Garfield will repay your compassion every day with head bumps, loud purrs, warm cuddles, and a lifetime of unconditional love.

Story
Meet Biscuit — Your Future Love Bug! If your idea of the perfect cat is one who melts into you and turns into a little orange puddle of love, you've just found him. Biscuit is an approximately 15-month-old orange tabby with a heart as sweet as his sunny coat. This handsome boy was part of a small neighborhood male cat colony that included his brother, Triscuit, and his cat friend, Cinnamon Roll. His foster had watched Biscuit and Triscuit playing together in the neighborhood since they were tiny. When Biscuit was finally rescued, he was a little underweight—but his wonderfully friendly personality was already shining through. It didn't take long to discover that this boy is an absolute love bug. Biscuit LOVES to cuddle. Give him the chance and hell happily come over, settle right on top of you, and melt into a tiny orange puddle. He also enjoys chasing his brother, playing with other cats under the door, and spending time with his feline friends. One of his especially adorable habits? He loves getting baths from his buddy Cinnamon Roll! Biscuit is truly one of the sweetest boys you could hope to meet. He has the kind of affectionate, gentle personality that makes you think, How did I ever live without this cat? Biscuit would be very happy with a friendly cat sibling, especially since he clearly enjoys feline companionship. If you're looking for a devoted companion who will bring cuddles, sweetness, playfulness, and a whole lot of orange-tabby charm into your life, Biscuit may be your boy. Adopt Biscuit and you'll have a love bug for life!

Story
Meet Tiny — the spirited little survivor with a giant heart! Tiny may be small in size, but he’s bursting with personality and love. This playful, curious boy adores romping around with his bonded sister Squeaky as well as other cats, dogs and people. Whether he’s chasing toy mice, exploring new corners, or curling into your lap for nap time, Tiny finds joy in every moment. Tiny’s story is nothing short of miraculous. He was discovered at a feral colony in the freezing winter months, abandoned and so sick that survival seemed uncertain. Luckily, a kind caregiver trapped him for a TNR appointment and quickly realized he was far too friendly to return to life outdoors. Once safe inside, it became clear just how sick he was — battling a severe parasite infection that left him weak and in need of IV fluids and syringe feeding. But Tiny had a will to live that matched his name only in irony! With care, time, and love, he made a full recovery and blossomed into a thriving, affectionate kitten. In foster care, Tiny met Squeaky — another kitten rescued from colony life — and it was instant friendship. They play, nap, eat, and even use the litter box together! These two balance each other perfectly: Tiny’s confident curiosity pairs beautifully with Squeaky’s gentle sweetness. They’re a bonded pair who bring out the best in each other and fill their foster home with laughter, purrs, and endless affection. Tiny is now ready to bring that same warmth, joy, and resilience to his forever home — alongside Squeaky, his partner in cuddles and adventure. If you’re looking for double the love, double the playtime, and double the heart, Tiny and Squeaky are waiting to make your family complete.

Story
Meet Squeaky & Tiny – Two Survivors with Double the Love! When little Squeaky was found shivering at a managed feral colony in the middle of winter, she was scared, hungry, and completely out of her element. As a friendly kitten trying to survive among wary outdoor cats, she didn’t stand a chance—until a kind caregiver trapped her for what was supposed to be a routine TNR. Once safe inside, her secret came out: Squeaky wasn’t feral at all—she was a sweet, affectionate baby who purred like a motorboat the moment she felt safe! Just days later, her foster welcomed another cold, abandoned kitten named Tiny, and it was love at first sight. Since then, Squeaky and Tiny have been inseparable—playing, grooming, napping, and even using the litter box together (yes, really!). Squeaky is a gentle soul who starts out shy but blossoms into a total cuddlebug once she trusts you. She adores head and belly rubs, has a soft purr that never stops, and enjoys both snuggle time and playtime with her favorite toys. She prefers not to be picked up but happily curls up on your lap or beside you once she’s comfortable. Tiny complements her perfectly with his outgoing nature and playful antics—they bring out the best in each other. Together, they’re affectionate, loving, and endlessly entertaining. After all they’ve been through, these two deserve a forever home where they can stay side by side, filling your days with joy, warmth, and lots of purrs. Ready to meet this perfect pair? Adopt Squeaky and Tiny—and let double the love into your home!

Story
Millie has spent her life surviving, but she’s ready for something better. This sweet, quiet mama cat raised three litters of kittens in the middle of a busy hotel parking lot, where every day meant noise, danger, and uncertainty. Through it all, she stayed devoted, protective, and strong - now it’s finally Millie’s turn to be safe, cherished, and deeply loved. She’s the kind of cat people fall for once they meet her: gentle, resilient, and full of quiet heart. Millie doesn't ask for much - just a calm home, a soft place to land, and someone who will let her trade survival for comfort. If you’ve been waiting for a cat with a beautiful soul and a story worth loving, Millie is your girl. Now that she’s in a safe foster home, Millie is ready to take the next step: a forever home of her own. Could that home be yours?
