Story
Emily has made her way to one of our loving foster homes recently, and discovered her very unique personality. Emily is a cat that loves attention and she’s not afraid to let you know it. That said, she is, like most cats, picky about when she wants that attention. Emily is a talker. From the moment you greet her when you wake up, to the time you go to lie down in bed, she’ll respond to whatever you say to her. While she hasn’t completely adjusted to living with other cats that aren’t her kittens, she has shown growth and can coexist with another cat. Given enough time, she will be a great companion to another cat. She’s shown that she wants to play with our cats, she just isn’t sure how to do it — but she is learning! Emily is independent and enjoys the option of alone time. She comes out and interacts with us often, but she enjoys having her own space to rest. She would do best in a home without small children and a limited amount of cats, preferably one or none. We are not sure how she is with dogs. Emily is somewhat territorial of her foster parents and will let our other cats know her feelings. Within the past three weeks, she has gotten better with the other cats and has even attempted to play with one of them. All told, Emily is a great cat and would love to meet her forever home!

Story
Aaliyah and Eddie Vedder were saved from a life of having to grow up outside. They are some of the lucky ones! They are excellent at purring! And they love to play. Ball tracks and tunnels are just a couple of their favorite things to play with! They have mastered the game of play! Aaliyah and Eddie Vedder are testing positive for FIV at this time. Other kittens from their mother have tested positive as well and then later tested negative. Although we are still trying to spay their mother who is an unsocialized female, living her best life outside, we presume that she is probably FIV positive. Kittens can carry mom’s antibodies for quite a few months after they stop nursing. Even if they remain positive they can still live along healthy life. Feel free to ask us more! These kittens are just the best! You don’t wanna miss out on their love in your home and heart. Would you like to meet them?

Story
Hi there! We are a pair of 1-year-old brothers—one of us is a handsome classic Tabby, and the other is a stunning Black and Gray striped gentleman. We used to have typical teenage energy, but since being neutered, we have completely settled down into a calm, gentle, and peaceful routine.We are not the type of cats to get up in your face or demand constant attention right away, but we are quiet, well-behaved, and incredibly sweet. We love hanging out together and get along great with other younger cats, too! Best of all, we have zero bad habits—no spraying at all. We are looking for a forever home where we can stay together and bring a sense of calm companionship to your life.

Story
Lil Mama was a sweet soul that found herself without a home in the museum District of Cleveland, Ohio. She was in an area where it was not uncommon for cats to be left behind when people move. We were in the area, trying to find a couple of our cats that had become lost and realized there were quite a few other cats that we could help. She was one of them. She’s a sweet, gentle girl that would love a home that is laid-back and chill. She does get along with other cats and enjoys human companionship. She would prefer older humans as chaos is not her jam! Would you like to meet the sweet lady? Fill out this form to get the process started https://form.jotform.com/202214857624050

Story
I found Dashi eating garbage in the middle of the street last year. I took him to the vet and discovered that he has an owner, however they had originally adopted him to use as a mouser for a basement in a business that closed. We decided to try to keep him, but he doesn’t get along with our other cat. We’ve tried everything, but he attacks our cat on sight, and we can’t deal with it anymore. He’s a brilliant mouser, with at least 6 kills in the time that we have had him. He’s great with our dogs, but would need a home without other cats. We’re are currently separating him in the basement at night, but he hates it and it isn’t fair to make him live like this. We’re are starting him on Prozac, however if that doesn’t work we will need to let him go. With his struggles I’m concerned that he will be euthanized. If you are looking for a cute little guy with a lot of personality he could be for you. We will hold on to him for as long as possible. We will provide brand new cat supplies.
