Story
Styx was surrendered to us when her owner had to move and couldn't take all of her cats with her.  She was going to euthanize her because of health issues but all she needed was a dental cleaning and some extractions.  She is now a healthy girl.  She is very shy and takes time to get to know people.  She prefers a very quiet household.  Once she trusts you she loves to sit on your lap and get love.   ##1335480##

Bebe and Leeloo were surrendered to us in 2019 when they were tossed out of their house and abandoned.  They are very bonded to each other.  They were adopted out together in 2020.  That adoption did not work out and they ended up back with us summer of 2022.  These girls have had a tough way to go the last few years.  Bebe has inflammatory bowel disease and needs to stay on a diet for sensitive stomachs.  She is a total lap cat.  Leeloo is also a very sweet girl who loves attention.  She also enjoys climbing up on high perches to watch everything going on below her.  They are looking for a home together that can finally be a forever home.  These girls are too sweet to not have a loving family.   ##1562556##

Story
Kathy came to temporarily live with us while her owner was in the hospital.  He has moved to assisted living but isn't able to care for her again.  While she has been in our care she has been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and inflammatory bowel disease.  She received radioactive iodine therapy for the hyperthyroidism and no longer needs medication for it.  She is however on an inexpensive medication for her IBD.  She can be a real sweet girl with lots of purrs when she's in the mood, other times she does a bit of growling but never bites.  She co-exits with other animals just fine.  She is looking for a home where she can live out her senior kitty years with lots of good food and head scratches.   ##1386916##

Story
Say hello to Hibrew! It took Hibrew about seven months to understand that all humans aren't out to hurt her. She is now ready for adoption. She's quite shy at first and will cringe/cower if you come at her too fast but she (now) warms up quickly and accepts the love you offer. Hibrew is fully vetted, UTD on vaccines and microchipped. She does well with other cats but still worries about dogs and has never met any children. I think she would do well with older children but younger ones would be "too much" for her fractured little self. She needs a quiet home where her family understands that she will come to love you, given the time. If you are interested in adopting Hibrew, please fill out an application on our webpage: https://www.allpawsmatterrescue.org/?page_id=5212

Story
Punky is one of the five Skateway kittens that came in about as feral as feral can be, she has turned a 180 and would love to be your new furry companion. She does take a minute to warm up to new people but it's only a minute, or two. She prefers to be a loner type of girl in that she doesn't want you to come at her for love but wants to bring it to you. If you are looking for a beautiful, low maintenance piece of eye candy, look no further, Punky is your girl!! Her favorite thing to do is to burrow into a blanket.

Story
Meet Socks! Socks was a stray that came to the rescue through its TNR program who is now fully vetted and ready to roll. He’s been with his foster for 8 months. Socks is the definition of curiosity that killed the cat. He’s a very curious and adventurous boy. He wants/needs to know what’s going on at all times. He loves to play and get pets, though he isn’t too fond of being held. However, he is a BIG cuddler. If you sit in a chair he’s in your lap, if you lay down he’s laying on you, if you bend over to clean his litter box he’ll hop up onto your back. He’s a sweet, funny guy who just wants a home where he can run and play and jump all day. Somewhere, he can sprawl out in plain sight or tuck himself away in a hidey hole. You can apply to adopt him at: https://www.allpawsmatterrescue.org/?page_id=5212

Story
Hello Everyone, My name is Beans and I am approximately 3 years old. I went to the school of hard knocks and had a rough start until Joseph's Legacy found me and brought me into their fold. I was pregnant at the time and had my babies and took wonderful care of them but now they are grown and don't need their mama anymore. I am a very, very people friendly girl and love to be loved on and want to hang out with my person as much as I can. I was picked on when I was on the street, so now I'm shy and scared of other animals. My dream home is where I can be an only cat! If you think I could be your new BFF and "the one", please apply for me and make me the happiest girl in the world.

Story
Hello my name is Caty Perry and I have been through a lot in my short little life. I am around 4 years old and I was found by a nice person who got me into a barn program as I was scared and being a hissy. They thought I would like to be a barn kitty, but after I got used to humans and realized they were not all bad, my personality came out big time. I like being petted and love to wrap myself around your legs. I like being around my people, but I seem to be a one girl kind of kitty but will warm up more to other people with time. I can co-exist with other animals but would be happier with only 1 cat or alone. I'm ok with older children but still shy way from small ones as they still scare me. If you could find it in your heart to give this sweet girl a home please apply at jlrescue.org

Story
Hi. My name is Michelin. I didn't have the easiest start at life, being stuck in a truck engine for 3 days as a little thing. After months with my foster mom and other animals, I've opened up to be the sweetest purr machine with the biggest, most beautiful, yellow eyes. I love to sit by foster mom while she works and bask in the sun through the window. I've made lots of friends and certainly can make more! I dream of a home of my own, I know it has to be coming soon.

These pups are in Germantown, Ohio too!

If you want to cuddle, I love curling up in a ball in your arms or on your lap and we can snuggle all day.

Are you secretly a dog person, but cats work better with your lifestyle? Meet Hardy, who embodies all the best things about cats AND dogs! While he’s a stereotypical cat in some ways (he is totally happy to be alone and napping by the window, loves a soft bed, and is often seen rolling around on the floor alone), he also has some dog-like tendencies. For one, he LOVES to cuddle. He will also follow you around the house (especially if he thinks you have food, catnip, or treats to share). He’s a total Velcro cat!  His hobbies include watching fish tanks (he’ll be mesmerized for hours!) and being brushed by his humans. Hey, how else do you expect him to stay so snazzy looking if not for a little pampering? Hardy is an excellent road trip buddy and rides in the car completely silently.  Some of the basics about Hardy: he is estimated to be 7 years old, give or take a year, and about 13 lb. As with all Adopt A Pit pets, he is fully vaccinated and neutered. Hardy is FIV positive, but is QUITE healthy! Hardy’s foster says, “He's literally the most precious loving creature I've ever met.” With a review like that, who wouldn’t want to meet Hardy? Apply to adopt him today! His adoption fee is $50  All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home.
