Dez is a 9 year old stunning sleek black cat with a heart of gold. She is a gentle sweet adult who loves to lounge in sunny spots. Dez is very timid and cautious around new things. Has an average energy level enjoying short bursts of playtime and is also content being a comforting presence. She is incredibly affectionate with people once she warms up. She would thrive in a calm environment. Does well with children and adults but mostly tries to avoid contact with anyone unknown or new to household. Please consider giving this lovely girly a new home.

Story
Nova is gorgeous domestic shorthair who is 3 years old and is a whole ball of energy. She is a stunning gray and white girl, with a sleek gray coat on top and a soft white belly underneath. Nova is super playful and ready to zoom, loves absolutely any toy given to her. Nova is generally good around kids and adults. She can be a bit stubborn or shy when first meeting new people, so she needs a patient adopter who will give her time and space to open up, Once she feels safe she's a loving companion. She would thrive in an active home where she can play daily and is given grace to settle in at her own pace. Give this little rocket a chance to fly into your heart!

NOTE: IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS CAT PLEASE FILL OUT AN APPLICATION: https://forms.gle/QKj2eSwjYxVd3UJD7 REMEMBER TO CHECK YOUR EMAIL AFTER APPLYING! --- Hi, my name is Sweet Potato! I am probably the friendliest cat in the entire world. I love attention, especially rubbing my face on people who come to visit me. I never leave a human's side! I have a super quiet, gentle demeanor and I'm a total couch potato cat. I also love other cats and will rub my face on them too! You would never tell that I had a rough start. I used to live in a colony of stray cats, and nobody knew about how bad my condition was until it was almost too late. But I'm all healed up, I packed on some pounds, my orange fur is soft and beautiful, and I'm ready to start my new life! I even learned how to use the litterbox and now I never miss a beat! I have overcome a lot, but unfortunately I have a couple conditions that are with me for life. I am positive for both FIV and feline herpes. Actually, a lot of kitties have herpes, and most don't even show symptoms! Since I have both conditions, I just get some crumbs around my eyes and nose that need to be wiped off sometimes. It feels really good when you wipe my face and I actually don't mind at all! That's my only disclaimer. I actually live with FIV- cats because I'm so gentle and sweet. Can you look past my diagnosis into my gentle eyes? I can't wait to be your best friend forever! Please adopt me today.

NOTE: IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS CAT PLEASE FILL OUT AN APPLICATION: https://forms.gle/QKj2eSwjYxVd3UJD7 REMEMBER TO CHECK YOUR EMAIL AFTER APPLYING! --- Hi, my name is Belle! I am a young kitty between 1 and 2 years old! I once was a tiny kitten struggling to survive on an abandoned farm. Then I was rescued and adopted, but returned when my owner fell into a health crisis. Since then, I have been waiting for a home for over a year. :( I am shy at first, but when you get to know me I am so silly and sassy! I love to play with human hands and meow at you for attention! I do great with other cats and always use my litterbox. When I hear a can of wet food crack open I start slinking around meowing and exploring to try to find it! My ideal home is a loving human family who will be patient while I come out of my shell, play with me, and give me a tall cat tree to look over my kingdom in. Is that so much to ask? I promise I will be on my best behavior! I can't wait to be in a home like I used to have... APPLICATION: https://forms.gle/QKj2eSwjYxVd3UJD7 INQUIRIES: hello@sweetpeacesanctuary.org

Story
RUE is approximately one year old and came to us when her owner could no longer care for her. Rue was terrified when she arrived and would strike out through the bars of her quarantine cage. It took us a while to win her over. She is now very affectionate with the volunteers but her new family should expect a similar decompression time. Typical to Calicos, she has a short fuse, so would not be the best match for a family with young children. Older children who understand “catitude” should be fine. Rue does not mind the small dogs who also inhabit our cat room. She has been spayed, vaccinated, tested negative for FIV/leukemia and microchipped. Adoption $75. Please fill out an application at www.companimals.org if you’re interested in adding Rue to your family.November 3, 2024, 10:40 am

Story
CICADA was found as a stray – a young cat, probably under a year, and already pregnant! She delivered four lovely babies who will be available after the new year. Once they have been weaned and she has been spayed, Cicada will be looking for a home as well. Her baby bugs have their own listing - But here is a sneak peek of Praying Mantis, Beetle, Butterfly and Grasshopper! November 30, 2025, 1:35 pm
