Story
Zephyr was born on February 19th 2017, she is 8 years old. She is fixed. She will greet you or anyone in your family the moment you get home, she loved attention stranger or not to her! She is a great cat very loving the reason for rehoming is because I have a 1 year old, 3 other cats and a small home and I want her to have more attention that she deserves. The only “accommodation” I request or advise is a top entry litter box so she doesn’t kick litter anywhere. One time I took away the high top entry and she didn’t squat to pee anymore and just stood there getting pee on the wall despite never peeing outside of the box or spraying it just works best for her. And I’ve kept the high top entry or storage container for her since. Shes been seen at Vet on main in Birdsboro and Exeter Vet for routine visits in the past

Story
Meet Muffin — a gentle little sweetheart with a story as soft as her name. On a cold, snowy night, a tiny meow broke the silence. A frightened but hungry young cat was kneading the snow for comfort, gathering the courage to approach a bit of food that her finder offered her. No one ever came forward to claim her, but she was finally safe, vetted, and given the name that fits her perfectly: Muffin. Muffin is about 2–3 years old and incredibly sweet. She isn’t the biggest fan of being picked up just yet, but with patience and a loving home of her own, she may grow more comfortable over time. What she does love is making biscuits on her soft, fluffy bed and curling up inside her cozy shark hut where she feels secure. She would thrive in a quiet, calm home without small children, where she can settle in at her own pace. Muffin is also a bit of a door runner, so her new family will need to keep a close eye on entrances and exits. She has a healthy appetite, no known medical issues, and a heart full of love just waiting for the right person. Muffin is ready for a safe, gentle home where she’ll never have to be cold, scared, or alone again. All she wants is love — and a family to call her own.

Story
Meet Crèmebrule – Buff Beauty, 8 Years Young (DOB: 1/27/2017) Crèmebrule is a gentle soul with a regal streak. She adores perching atop cat trees, surveying her kingdom, or lounging by the window soaking up the sunshine. Her calm demeanor and love for quiet observation make her the perfect companion for a peaceful home. Crèmebrule thrives best as a solo cat or with a mellow feline friend who respects her space. She’s affectionate with people and enjoys gentle pets and companionship, but she also appreciates her independence. If you're looking for a serene, sun-loving sweetheart to share your home, Crèmebrule might just be your perfect match. She will do best in a quiet house with older kids or an older couple looking for companionship. Cremebrule is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and FIV/Felv negative. If you are interested in adopting her, please complete an application: https://1by1catrescue.org/adoption-application/

Story
Meet Yuri — a handsome 5 year old gentleman with a wonderfully sweet purrsonality. Yuri has had a few stops along the way, and through no fault of his own he’s looking once again for a place to call home. He’s hoping his next landing spot will finally be his forever one. Yuri is an easygoing, independent cat who enjoys a calm environment. He appreciates affection and loves spending time with his people, but he also values having a little space to himself when he’s in the mood to relax. He has lived with other cats and even a very small dog, and he did well as long as they respected his boundaries. Some of Yuri’s favorite things include catnip, feather toys, and lounging on high perches. A cat tree or a cozy elevated spot would make him very happy. He also benefits from having scratching posts available, as he enjoys using them to keep his claws busy. Loud noises like vacuums, traffic, or thunder can startle him, so a quieter home suits him best. His activity level is moderate—he enjoys playtime, climbing, and exploring, but he’s equally fond of curling up for a peaceful nap. Yuri recently had significant dental work and now has just a few teeth left. He does well on soft food, though he still enjoys nibbling on dry food too. Yuri’s ideal home is calm, predictable, and child free—somewhere he can feel safe, loved, and finally settled. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion with a big heart and a mellow spirit, Yuri may be the perfect match. Yuri is neutered, vaccinated, Fiv/Felv negative, and microchipped. If you are interested in adopting Yuri, please submit an application: https://1by1catrescue.org/adoption-application
