Story
Freyja is the worlds biggest dork! She’s so sweet and pretty, and so not smart. You can find her frequently falling off of things, running into the wall when she’s zooming, and much more. She loves to play fetch with pom pom balls, and she’s a huge foodie (don’t worry, she WILL let you know when it’s time for meals). She loves pets, and she loves to talk! Freyja has moved homes a couple of times due to not getting along with other kitties. She has tried older kitties and younger ones, her paws are rated E for everyone! She tolerates dogs, mostly doesn’t care about them but does not like when they get in her business! She will let them know! Other than seasonal allergies, she has a clean bill of health!

Story
Meet Poppy! She is 4-5yrs old. Reason for rehoming is my other cats keep bullying her, and everything I’ve tried to correct their behavior / make her feel safe isn’t working. I am very sad to have to rehome her, but feel it’s best for her well-being. Get to Know Poppy: -She is used to living with multiple dogs and cats. -She will happily cuddle next to you on the couch and make little content sounds when you pat her. - She is unproblematic and doesn't scratch furniture or knock things off counters. - She is a sweet girl and I really think she would thrive and her loving personality would come out in the right home.

Story
Mikey is estimated to be 3-4 years old. He is the sweetest and most loving cat you could ever meet. He loves to cuddle up during the day and especially when it’s bedtime, but he also loves his alone time to stare out of a window and sunbathe. He is indoors only. Anyone would be incredibly lucky to meet this wonderful gentleman. I’m not ultimately sure how he is around dogs or kids, however I know that he does not do well around other cats. I believe that he needs to be in a single-animal, quiet household, where all the love and attention can go to him only. In his current home, he has had an issue of spraying to mark his territory due to him not getting along with the other cats in the home. When it was just him, he never had this issue. He is perfectly healthy, neutered, and up to date on shots. Mikey needs an environment where he will feel safe and loved. He deserves the world, and you won’t regret bringing this love bug into your home.

Story
We adopted Levi (male, grey and white) and Jean (brown) in 2017. We initially tried only getting Jean, but she cried for Levi when we took her to the car, so we brought Levi home with her. They were very young kittens at the time and have grown up with the family. Both are full grown now, have been indoor only cats. Levi loves bananas and Jean is always on the hunt for a lap to sit in or a spot of sun from a window.
