Though she may be shy at first, once she feels safe, she blossoms into a sweet and affectionate companion who melts under soft pets and kind words. She’s not afraid to speak her mind—especially when mealtime rolls around! With her unmistakably “loud” voice, Sky will let you know exactly when it’s time to eat. She can get a little confused if she’s alone or can’t find her sister, often calling out until someone comes to comfort her. It’s just her way of saying she wants to feel close and connected. These bonded sisters are looking for a home together where they can share their unique personalities and endless love. Sky is FeLV progressive & asymptomatic. Some progressive cats will remain nonclinical for several years. ***ADOPTION INFORMATION: The adoption fee of $295/pair includes a veterinary exam, parasites treatment, spay/neuter, vaccination and microchip.

Jeffrey is a sociable, friendly cat! He isn’t a cuddly guy, but likes to be where the humans are. He’s great with kids and toddlers and is hilarious when he gets the “zoomies”. He is curious and very cute. He is even good on long car rides. He has always been an indoor cat and has no medical issues.

Story
Meet Momo, a beautiful 5-year-old girl with a gentle heart and a sensitive soul. She was adopted from the Humane Society and is listed as having special needs due to fear, but with patience and understanding she becomes the sweetest companion. Once Momo learns to trust you, she turns into a true love bug who thrives on affection. Her absolute favorite thing is a good butt pat, and she’ll happily lean into attention from her chosen person. Momo would do best in a calm, adult-only home where she can be the only pet. She cannot live with other animals, as she becomes territorial and aggressive around them. A quiet environment with predictable routines helps her feel safe and confident. This rehoming decision is made with love. Our youngest child, who is still a baby, has developed a cat allergy, and we want what’s best for everyone involved. Momo deserves a forever home with someone experienced, patient, and ready to be rewarded with deep loyalty and affection.
