Story
This is my sweet girl Kikio. She is 10 years old and will be 11 early 2024. My brother brought her home it was July 2013. She’s my ride or die. We have been thru everything together. But she does not like my 19 mo old daughter. She doesn’t have a good history with kids either. She needs a lot of attention and cuddles and time as she’s older now! I unfortunately can’t keep up with her. And she’s sent my daughter to the ER at least 3 times. Both my daughter and kikio deserve to be in safe environments where they feel comfortable and at home! I’m searching for someone who has the time and patience and love to give my lil old lady. it breaks my heart to do this. But I know someone out there can provide a better environment for her to live freely and not feel the need to be violent. I’m hoping she’ll land in good hands. Please message me with serious inquiries only. I appreciate your time!

Story
George is a super sweet cat who everyone in the house loves! George is litter trained, eats well, and has had a recent teeth cleaning at the vet (Sept 2024). We’ve also taken him for his annual checkups and vaccinations. He will come to you for pets, snuggles, soft head bumps, and especially enjoys sitting on your lap. He is curious and likes to play, and will even chase down little treats if you throw them for him. He is great with humans but not with other cats. When new people arrive in the house, he may be shy at first but eventually warms up. He has always been an indoor cat. Everyone in our house will miss his snuggles and sweet face. I am more than happy to talk about George, answer any questions and arrange a visit.

Story
Meet Zelda, our sweet and cuddly cat who has been with us since she was a kitten. She’s front-paw declawed (done before we realized it wasn’t recommended) and absolutely loves to nap and snuggle. Zelda thrives in a calm, quiet environment where she can receive lots of love and attention. In our busy household with young kids, she has occasionally peed outside the litter box, likely due to stress as that’s what the vet said as well. We believe she would do much better in a peaceful home where she can feel secure and relaxed. If you’re looking for a loving companion and can provide a calm space for her, Zelda would make a wonderful addition to your family.

Hello everyone I’m looking to rehome a cat named Lucy She’s 15 years old with plenty of life left in her she acts just like my 2 year old cats. Backstory she was dumped on me a few months ago and as much as I would love to keep her long term I’m only allowed to have 2 cats where I am moving to. She would benefit from someone who likes cuddling with cats she loves to cuddle and be pet and loves to play with toys. She eats a mixture of dry and wet foods and hydrates well. She gets along well with other cats. If she is not in your lap or next to you she will be napping in the sunlight

He is a 3.5 year old very handsome solid white cat who is playful and energetic!! His favorite past time is bird watching, and doing backflips with his favorite toy. Things that he dislikes is the outdoors and DOGS. Sadly, we are looking for a new home because he doesn't get along with our other cats. He would do best in a one pet household, due to dominance behavioral issues with other cats. Name: Shiino Age: 3 years Neutered

He suddenly decided he’s not going to get along with our dog and has started stress licking. Very human friendly, unsure about children. Will “tolerate” other cats. He’s been indoor since with us, unsure about indoor/outdoor. He enjoys sitting on the balcony to sun bathe & watch birds. Hes leash trained for short distance

Story
Boo was adopted from the Kitsap Humane Society at 10 weeks old in December 2022. She is over 2 years old now & has been an absolute joy in my life. She is super friendly to everyone she meets, even strangers, loves belly scratches and cuddles. I am so sad to rehome her, but I want to give her the best life that she deserves. I moved in with my boyfriend who has a 90 lb German Shepard. Over months of introductions, we have decided to look for a better home for Boo. She is not afraid of our dog and will commonly roll over showing her belly to him & try to play. It is our dog that has caused the problems and constantly chases her around the house, cornering her and mouths at her head. I believe she would still be a good fit for a household with dogs if the dogs are already acclimated to cats. 1/25/25 Vet Visit - all vaccines up to date & perfectly healthy. I have all of her medical records in a folder. Adoption fee covers food, litter box & carrier. Feel free to text: 360-649-5430

Story
I got Leo as a baby from the shelter in Sacramento, California. He was a very happy kitten and house trained. I relocated him to my partner in Seattle because I was undergoing graduate school and didn’t feel i could take good care of him. He did well and gets along with the other cat and dog. However, upon moving to a new house in University place, Leo began acting very unhappy. He has been urinating around the house and also stooling small amounts. I can tell he does not like it here. We have had him evaluated and he does not have anything wrong with him except probable anxiety. He takes Fluoxetine now which hasn’t seemed to help. We need someone with a lot of experience, patience, and love to give Leo all the attention and hopefully he likes it better there.
