Story
Ralph is a sweet guy who is a little shy at first but will warm up quickly. He loves affection and pets of any kind. He's not much of a lap cat but loves to be nearby and will cozy up beside you on the couch. He is pretty quiet but when he does decide to speak up, he has a very cute squeaky meow. Plus he's got a face you'll never tire of. Ralph is an indoor/outdoor cat and requires a home where he can go outside. He has always got along with other cats in the house, but has not been tested with dogs. Would be fine with children as well. He is approximately 10 years old, fixed and in good health. He will come with a cat carrier. We're moving abroad and can't take him with us, but would very much like to find him a loving home.

Story
Hi, I'm Coco! I'm a bit of a goofball but I promise I'm also quite smart. You see, I've figured out that the key to life is curiosity. I love exploring every nook and cranny. Sometimes, my bravery gets the best of me, but I assure you, it's all in good fun. I have a sweet side too, and there's nothing I love more than a good cuddle. My funny antics will surely keep you entertained. I'm also fiercely loyal. Once I've decided you're my person, I'm yours forever. Adopt me and let's create our own fun-filled, cuddly, silly, and sweet world together.

Story
Poor Orko HAD been adopted earlier this year, but would likely be much happier in a home that has no other pets. We aren't sure who instigated amongst the pets in the home, but we were told that Orko had been hiding alot, and had some litter box issues (possibly because of that)Orko is in our Signature Pets Program, as a Working Whisker, which means he may need a specific type of home. It also means that his adoption fee is up to you!

Story
Tippy is a very friendly and affectionate cat. He loves to be pet and scratched right under his chin. Tippy has zero interest in playing with any toys and would much rather lounge around and people watch. He likes to keep all fours on the floors at all times to easily roam and explore. Tippy does not like being held so it is not recommended that he go home with younger children. Tippy is looking for a home with his very sweet brother Toddy! Tippy and Toddy are Special Paws pets because they have heart murmurs and potential need for medical care in the foreseeable future. This means their adoption fee is up to you! If you're interested in adopting these sweet senior boys, submit an inquiry today! Come meet them at Yay for Strays Cat Café starting February 24th!Tippy's MYM Feline-ality is Secret Admirer. When it comes to relationships, I'm very level-headed. I don't leap in paws first if you know what I mean. But give me a little time, and then I'll shower you with purrs, head-butts, and plenty of lap time. In the meantime, you may not see a lot of me, but I'll be thinking a lot of you!

Story
Buttermilk here...no, it's not in the fridge, I'm right in front of you, and rather impatient for you to show me some love. Oh, yesss, that feels good...okay enough. Ummm, sorry, but the only way I know to signal I've had enough is to, ummm, what's the word? You know, when I open my mouth and then close it on your hand, arm or whatever body part is closest??? Bite, that's it. Yes, I bite and I don't give you any other warning. That doesn't mean I don't like being pet, I love it! But sometimes I like 1 or 2 strokes and other times 3-4, but seldom more than that at a time. And since I have no interest in mastering the use of a pen or a keyboard I don't have a way of communicating that exact number to you throughout my very busy day. After all, someone has to make the rounds of the house to ensure everyone and everything is in its proper place. And then there's eating, grooming and napping. I promise to fit you in. Having said all that, I am not what you humans would call a "Beginner's Cat." I need someone in sync with my moods, who will appreciate my independent and okay, I'll say it, my feisty personality. Children and other animals are not my cup of tea so I cannot go to a home with them. By the way, I am a Special Paws pet because I'm likely to have some chronic eye discharge, which means my adoption fee is up to you!See Buttermilk on Tiktok! https://tinyurl.com/v3e9u7k9

Story
Hi there, I'm Stormy! I'm an adult feline with a heart full of love and a head full of curiosity. I'm a goofy guy who loves to play and explore. My energy is infectious, and I can turn any ordinary day into an adventure. I'm brave, too - nothing scares me away from a good play session. But don't let my playful side fool you. I'm also a sweet, friendly soul who loves nothing more than a good cuddle. I'm always up for a good laugh, a good play, or a good nap. I'm looking for a forever home where I can share my love, laughter, and zest for life. Adopt me and let's make every day an adventure! Since I've been looking for my forever home for over 2 months and I tested positive for FIV, the nice people here want me to find my forever home, my adoption fee has been waived! FIV - POSITIVEAn IDEXX FIV/FeLV test was performed in shelter using whole blood, and a positive FIV test result was noted. Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) compromises the immune system, so routine preventive healthcare is important. Cats with FIV commonly live normal life spans so long as they do not have other pre-existing conditions, and any medical concerns are promptly addressed with a veterinarian. The primary mode of transmission for FIV is through bite wounds. As a result, cats in households with stable social structures where housemates do not fight are at little risk of acquiring FIV infections. FIV it is a species-specific virus that infects only felines, with no evidence it can infect or cause disease in humans. Rarely false positive tests can occur, particularly if an animal has been vaccinated against FIV. It is recommended that you follow up with your primary care veterinarian to establish a preventive healthcare plan post adoption!
