Story
**Judge Judy** If you know torties, you already know exactly why this sweet girl earned her name. Judge Judy has opinions, she has standards, and she is absolutely not afraid to silently judge your life choices. At 4 years old, Judge Judy is a mellow lady who is ready for the good life. She’s a big girl, although she would like you to know that she is simply big boned. She enjoys lounging on the couch, finding a sunny spot by the window, and listening to all your gossip while quietly judging your life choices. Judge Judy appreciates gentle pets, cozy evenings, Hallmark movies, and simply being near her people. She’s the kind of companion who would happily settle into a comfortable home and spend her days enjoying the finer things in life. If you’re looking for a sweet, mellow tortie with plenty of personality and just the right amount of judgment, Judge Judy may be your girl.

This animal is not being housed at the shelter! **Located In Waynesville, NC For more information, please contact the owner directly at 239-253-4457 (Bonded to Candace) Rocky and Candace are brother and sister. They play together and sometimes compete for my affection and attention. They love chasing the laser pointer around the room. Like all brothers and sisters the have a squabble once in a while but never anything serious. I have found them curled up together on a bed or couch sleeping They are usually very quiet and they know when it is suppertime. They love affection and attention.

Story
Ed is that guy who overdresses for the occasion, but balances it by bringing his Aunt Betty's egg salad. You know, the one with the EXTRA mayonnaise? Yeah, he's that guy. Looks a bit fancy, but manages to remain humble. He doesn't ask for much: just a calm home, with a patient human. To be fair, he's mainly asking for his friend, Bonnie. They are lifelong buddies, and have leaned on one another through life's trials and tribulations. Yeah, he's that kind of guy. Ed has done well in a foster home, where he and Bonnie have enjoyed playing with the resident cat. We have come to know him as playful, friendly, and much more than just a handsome face. If you've been looking for a couple of cats that will bring love and laughter to your home, come meet Ed (and Bonnie)!

Story
Loki is a sweet guy who likes to cuddle at night, play all day, and talk to you whenever he’s hungry. He isn’t super friendly with our smaller cat, so we had to make this decision. He is house trained, litter box trained (litter robot) and won’t tear up anything.
