Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.I once was loved but coming from a rental home neighborhood like others, I was left behind. Barely a kitten myself I found myself a new mom to 2 rambunctious boys. We didn’t have a home but nice people fed us. My boys liked to play in the busy road. This was noticed by ST Furever freedom and so we were rescued….yes me included. I love love being inside a warm safe foster home. I love snuggling in my foster mom’s bed. I get to play like the young girl that I am with the many toys here. I won’t be having anymore babies and I’ve had all my vaccines. I would love my very own furever home.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Tabitha is a 9-year-old spayed Torbie who does best in a calm, predictable environment. She's naturally shy and startles easily, so a quiet home-or one with patient, steady people-will help her feel secure. Once she settles in, Tabitha shows her easygoing side and appreciates having a safe, low-key place to relax. She's a good match for someone who understands a sensitive cat and is happy to give her the time she needs to get comfortable.She is up to date on vaccinations, flea prevention, is microchipped, spayed and ready to go home. This cat should be kept indoors at all times for their safety. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times. Primary Color: Torbie Weight: 8 Age: 9yrs 1mths 1wks

Story
Meet Jessica & Farrah ❤️ Two fun girls who can be adopted separately...but honestly, that would be a poor life decision on your part. Farrah (tabby) is socially awkward in the cutest way. She'll follow you around like she's your tiny shadow...close enough to watch, not close enough to need therapy. She wants to be near you... just, like, play it cool. Jessica (black) is playful chaos with a cuddle setting. She'll zoom until she collapses into full snuggle mode. They don't have to go together, but separating this comedy duo is basically robbing yourself of entertainment. Just adopt both and save yourself the regret. Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 3.19 Age: 0yrs 4mths 2wks
