Story
Hi there, I'm Carmella! I am a beautiful 4 and a half year old Mama that someone brought in off the streets with my babies. They've all long since been adopted, but I have been waiting for my perfect match ever since. I've been here at the shelter since March of 2021, almost 2 years! I am an incredibly sweet girl and I have found myself in foster to adopt homes a few times, but I can have a very hard time adjusting. I MUST have another cat in my new home that can help me feel more at ease and help my confidence. I do not do well alone. I would do well with calmer children in the home who understand that I will need my space for a while until I am comfortable. I have not yet been tested with dogs. If you think you have the right environment and the patience to help bring me out of my shell, please stop in to the shelter to submit an application for me today.

Story
Hey guys, Creamsicle here, aren't I a handsome guy?! I am a near 2 year old guy and I'm ready to find my forever home where I can be the ONLY pet in your heart. I've been at the shelter since August of 2021 when I was brought in as a kitten from a bad situation. Understandably I will need a patient family who will understand that I grew up here at the shelter, so I do have some quirks that I need to work through. I just need someone to teach me a bit of confidence and teach me how to be a cat. It would be best for me to live with older kids as I can become overstimulated very easily. I'm a friendly guy who's happy to have toys and just hang around where you are, soaking up the attention. If you think you would like to meet me and possibly make me your newest family member, please submit an adoption application today!

Story
Hi there, I'm Aesop. I'm a 5 year old guy who is looking for a calm, quiet forever home that can help me to grow my confidence and blossom! I can be shy when meeting new people and in new situations and at times, it takes me a while to warm up and be comfortable. For this reason, it would be best for me to go into a home without young children that may not understand my needs. I have not yet been tested with other cats or dogs at this time, but if you think you have the right home for me, please stop in and ask about me!

Story
Hello everyone, my name is Vesper! I have recently hit my one year mark here at the shelter so I thought I would reintroduce myself! I am now a two-and-a-half-year-old boy who was surrendered to the shelter here after my owner passed. I do enjoy attention, but I am the boss so it will be on my terms until I get comfortable. I am not the biggest fan of being picked up but will tolerate it for the right person. I love toys! My favorite would have to be the toys that come on strings! I like little mice toys too, can't forget about them! I can get along with other cats as long as they respect my space. I do not do well with young children or dogs. Interested in coming to meet me? Make sure you have a completed application and come visit me at the shelter!

Story
Hi there, I'm Tenley! Aren't I a beautiful girl?! I am 2 years old and I was returned to the shelter due to the health of my owner. I would love a calm home where I can have some time to get used to you and show my true personality. I am a sweetheart who loves to have my chin scratched and I will roll around rubbing on you. I do not like other cats but I have not been dog tested yet and any children in the home would need to be older (10+) so they understand that I like the attention mostly on my own terms.If you would like to meet me, please fill out an adoption application today.

Story
Hi guys, Button here! I am a beautiful 1 and a half year old girl who is ready to find my new home. I came to the shelter because my owner's son was allergic to me. I am not happy around the other cats so need to be the only cat in the home. I have not yet been tested with dogs. This also means that I do not always show well during visits because I feel surrounded by other cats and may have a hard time focusing on much else. Anyone who may take interest in me will need to remember this and be willing to look past it as I am much different in the home. I may need some extra time and space to get used to being in a new place, but I do adore my people and can be a total love bug. I also enjoy lounging on my shelf and playing with toys. Children in the home would be considered on a case by case basis depending on how our visit goes. If you are interested in meeting me, please fill out an adoption application today.
