Story
Lady Gaga is a quiet and gentle cat who, after living a rough life before being rescued, appreciates patience and softness from her caretakers. She enjoys being close to people and loves cuddles on her own terms, rather than being picked up. When she wants affection, she may gently and repetitively paw for attention or lie on her back with her belly up to let you know she’s ready for cuddles. Due to a minor leg issue that appears to be from an old injury, Lady Gaga generally prefers a more laid back lifestyle over running and jumping. She would love a home that lets her set the pace, where she will offer a sweet and calm presence and adorable little snores while she sleeps. Lady Gaga has experienced several ear infections while in our care and both of her ear drums were ruptured. While this doesn't cause her daily issues or pain, it does mean she's more susceptible to ear infections in general. Her adopter will need to flush her ears twice-weekly with saline solution and monitor her for signs of infection.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Thresher charms everyone at first sight with her wide, inquisitive eyes. She is an energetic and playful kitty who loves to jump, climb, and explore every nook and cranny. She likes to hang around her human with the hope that she can rope you into a game of fetch with a toy mouse—bounding after a mouse thrown across the room is her favorite thing ever! You might even find random toys and objects turn up on your bed after she’s done playing with them, as a friendly offering. Thresher enjoys pets and being in close proximity to people but doesn’t sit still for very long. Instead of climbing into your lap, she prefers to walk back and forth in front of you while you pet her, sometimes even standing up on her hind legs to bump her head against your hand. She is curious and fascinated by other cats and would love to have another cat friend to follow around and wrestle with. Bright-eyed, clever, and sometimes a bit mischievous, she is also very sweet. At the end of the day, she dutifully follows her person to bed and settles down nearby. She’s not one to cuddle, but she may reach out a paw to touch you while she’s sleeping. Thresher would do well in a home with lots of opportunity for her to roam and play, but she is also great at entertaining herself, whether it’s chirping at birds outside, pouncing on her own tail, or scaling and balancing atop a scratching post.

Story
Lynx is a shy and sweet cat. Sure of herself, she'll be cautious until she's sure she can trust you. She isn't particularly motivated by treats, but once she trusts and likes you, she's happy to hop up next to you and ask for attention. She might take a few weeks to warm up, but this lovely girl is well worth the wait.

Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Bubbly - Playful - Spunky Achilles is a strong warrior with energy to spare! True to his name, this sweet, spirited boy lives life at full volume. His tornado-like energy will keep you laughing and entertained all day long. Wand toys are his favorite, get ready to watch him perform stunning feats of agility, launching off the couch and leaping mid-air like a true Trojan champion. When you come home, expect a warm, enthusiastic hero’s welcome complete with chirping meows, leg rubs, and headbutts. Because Achilles plays hard and feels big emotions, he does best with clear boundaries. He has a bold “agent of chaos” personality and can get overstimulated when he has too much pent-up energy, which can lead to spicy play or hard nips when he’s over-excited. When it comes to other cats, Achilles doesn’t know when to dial it back, and his pushy attempts at play can quickly overwhelm other pets and turn into redirected aggression at people. Because of this, Achilles is looking for an experienced adult-only home where he can be an only pet. When he is your solo companion, he channels all his epic personality into being your ultimate sidekick. Achilles wants to be in the middle of everything you do: snuggling up next to you, checking your hairstyle while you lay on the couch, helping clean his litter box, ensuring you are delivering enough food into his bowl, and watching you leave for work through the window. Adopt this legendary powerhouse and prepare for a lifetime of heroic adventures and chaotic love!

Story
Tex and Mex are a sweet pair of young brothers. Mex is the outgoing of the pair and loves to get pets and belly rubs. He's a great cat yoga partner. Tex is shyer and will take some patience to get used to humans. The boys were well taken care of while living outside with a caretaker, but they just recently made the switch to indoor life. They would do fine in a household with other cats as long as it's ok that Mex is oblivious to them (he is more focused on getting human attention than on reading the cues of other cats whose personal space he may be invading). They would do best in a home without dogs or young children since Tex needs a quieter space to get comfortable in. Tex and Mex are in a foster home, so if you're interested in meeting them please apply online and mention their names.
