Story
I am bonded to Opie, and we need to go home together! I am a very friendly cat who absolutely loves attention. I came from a hoarding situation with over 40 cats, so I get along great with other cats in the home. I am on a prescription diet (EN) to control GI issues. I am also prone to overgrooming, so my hair is thin on my back end. I am a very sweet cat who would like nothing better than to be your new best friend! I am currently in foster, so if you are interested in adoption, please reach out to adoptions@angelsofassisi.org to set up a meet and greet!

Story
Hi, my name is Lulu! Those who know me best describe me as chill and sweet with humans, though other animals stress me out, so I would prefer a home as the only pet. I love hanging out on a high perch where I can observe everything, and my weird quirk is that I love to sleep on plastic grocery bags! When I came to the shelter, they diagnosed me with FIV (feline AIDS), which means that I am immunosuppressed, but many cats with FIV can live long, healthy lives with regular vet care. FIV is not contagious to anyone but other cats, and in cats is transmitted through deep bite wounds, so it is generally safe to have FIV+ cats around other animals as long as they are neutered (to prevent fighting in males). If you have any questions, please reach out to adoptions@angelsofassisi.org.

Not good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Mr. Black was born in my yard with 2 brothers and a sister 8 yrs ago. I was able to trap and neuter and spay him, mother, sister, and one brother. He is a large, mostly white cat w/black spots, and has been an outside cat all of his life. I have insulated boxes for the 3 who remained with me, and have a heater inside a large shed, where they can stay inside their boxes near the heater, and come and go to the back yard as they like. Unfortunately, I am a Stage IV metastatic breast cancer patient, and I'm trying to rehome my cats before I get to the point that I can no longer care for them. Mr. Black is socialized to me, although he is still skittish around other people. I love on him every time I see him, and he comes to me wanting to be loved on. Separation and a slow introduction to other cats would be best. I feel he would be able to acclimate to other cats. I have an indoor/outdoor female cat that he has gotten used to being around, no longer considers her an outsider.

Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Romeo showed up during a bitter winter. Initially, I thought she was male, thus her name. She is a very small cat, which I think is the result of malnourishment during development. Romeo has been with me about 5 yrs, and is fully grown but is very small. She is docile for the most part, unless she feels threatened, so a slow introduction to other cats and dogs is essential. Romeo acclimated to 2 sisters in our home, which took about 6 months total. Now those sisters are deceased, and she is currently my only inside/outside cat. When Romeo started coming around, it was clear that she had an extreme upper respiratory infection, which she will carry the rest of her life. About 2 years ago, a severe infection required a vet visit and a round of antibiotics, but once through with that, she bounced back very well. Romeo is playful and very social with humans. I am a Stage IV metastatic breast cancer patient, and need to rehome my cats before I can no longer care for them.

Story
Naomi is a sweet old lady who is looking for a place to be loved and spoiled in her golden years. Unfortunately I can no longer give that to her. I adopted Naomi in 2016 from Angels of Assisi. She is anywhere from 11 to 14 years old. Naomi has very few teeth left but that doesn't stop her from wanting to eat dry kibble whole. She won't eat seafood and adores turkey. She isn't a fan of wet food but enjoys chicken churu.Naomi's special quirk is if her bowl is empty she will let you know by thumping her paws on furniture until her bowl is refilled. Naomi is extremely territorial and does not like other cats and is picky about dogs. She seems weary of children.Will not adopt her out to anyone who allow her to be an outside cat. She has been an exclusively inside cat the entire time I've owned her.Adoption fee is only set to promote serious inquiries. All of Naomi's things are included in adoption including vet documents, food, toys, carrier, and litter box (if desired).
