Available now   Date of birth: ~ 6/11/24   "Beau Beau" is a sweet, sweet boy who happens to be positive for feline leukemia. Thanks to several daily supplements, we are keeping him healthy! Because he has FeLV, he can be an only kitty or have a friend with FeLV. His current buddy is Sophia.

If you can open your home and heart to Beau and Sophia, please let us know! We'd love to partner with you!   Our standard adoption fees are $99 for adult cats and $150 for kittens.

Story
Available now!   Date of birth: Spring 2022   Polly came to us with her "brother" Bertie after their human mom went to heaven. While she does live with many other cats, she can be a little grumpy (mostly vocal) with other kitties that get in her personal space. While she doesn't want others in her personal space, that rule does not go both ways. She is always in a human's personal space, as she must supervise everything that is happening. In fact, she often goes by her alias, "THE SUPERVISOR". With Polly around, you can be sure that no human will be lonely and no task will go unsupervised!   Our standard adoption fees are $99 for adult cats and $150 for kittens. Kitty's adoption fee covers spay or neuter, rabies vaccine, age-appropriate distemper vaccines, FeLV/FIV combo test, flea treatment, microchip & registration, and dewormer.   We believe that kitties need a feline friend! For their health and happiness, we highly recommend that kitties be adopted in pairs.

I found Opal behind my house as a young kitten. I took her in for a while. I am have moved and my roommate has cats and Opal does not get along well with them, especially other female cats. Opal does great alone and with people, as long as you are patient with her and give her the space she needs.
