Story
Meet Spook, a strikingly handsome feline with captivating seafoam green eyes, eagerly awaiting a home where he can reign as king of the castle. Spook prefers to be the center of attention and has previously shown a preference for being the only cat. However, he is starting to do well with the female cat in his foster home, suggesting that with slow introductions, he may accept a feline companion. In his current foster environment, Spook is calm and affectionate, particularly toward adult women. While he can be startled by new voices, he seeks comfort in familiar company. He loves to curl up close, whether on the arm of a chair or the back of the sofa, and he delights in lap time, chest snuggles, and slow, gentle petting—especially in the mornings when he enjoys forehead massages and kisses. Spook is a true companion cat, often found stretched out on his foster mom, purring contentedly and even offering affectionate face licks. Though he enjoys his independence, he can be carried for short periods and has a playful side, zooming around the house and occasionally batting at catnip toys. He also enjoys perching on his cat tree, gazing out the window at the falling leaves, drifting snowflakes, or passing birds. With his sleek, panther-like coat, Spook takes pride in his appearance, keeping up with scratching posts and tolerating nail trims—especially when treats are involved. He rarely vocalizes unless necessary and has a unique charm, often responding when called and coming to investigate the sound of a treat bag. His cleverness extends to opening drawers and cabinets, where he sometimes creates cozy napping spots. Spook thrives in a quiet, laid-back home, ideally with female companions and without young children or energetic pets, as he’s still wary of loud noises and sudden movements. However, with patience and trust, he blossoms into a loving and social companion. His progress with his feline foster sibling hints that, given slow introductions, he may accept a friendly, calm cat in his future home. Are you the one to give Spook the peaceful, loving home he’s been waiting for?

Story
Peanut is a shy and independent spirit who takes her time warming up to new people. She’s especially cautious around strangers and prefers to keep her distance, often running to the other side of the room when someone approaches. Though she rarely interacts with her foster mom’s 4-year-old granddaughter and tends to run away when approached, Peanut is never aggressive—she doesn’t hiss or swat; she simply chooses to retreat to her safe space. Peanut gets along well with other cats and enjoys sharing a bed or snuggling up with her feline friends. She’s had limited exposure to dogs but shows mild curiosity rather than fear. Her ideal home would be a calm, quiet environment with adults or older children who understand her need for patience and space. Peanut is making slow but steady progress in gaining confidence. She’s starting to realize she doesn’t always need to run away. Sometimes, she’ll stay perched on her cat climber, watching her foster mom curiously instead of immediately darting off. On occasion, she’s even leaned in to sniff a hand and has allowed a gentle pet or two, but these moments are rare and delicate. Peanut needs an adopter who understands that building trust with her will take time, patience, and celebrating the small victories along the way. Peanut is a quiet kitty who loves lounging on comfy beds or climbers. She occasionally enjoys playing with toys, especially her favorite—DaBird feather wand toy. She also looks forward to her daily helping of wet food and patiently waits for her dish to be placed in front of her. If you’re someone who can offer Peanut the patience, understanding, and quiet environment she needs, she’ll reward you by gradually learning to trust and feel safe in her forever home.

Looking for a cat with brains, beauty, and just the right amount of mischief? Meet Artemis, the clever little explorer who’s ready to rule her kingdom (a.k.a. your home)! Artemis is a total sweetheart who lives for pets seriously, she’ll headbutt your hand nonstop until she gets the love she deserves. The second she sees her people, she greets them with happy chirps and instant purrs. While she’s not quite a lap cat yet, she’s warming up fast and tolerates being held. This girl is smart. One night her foster mom woke up to pet a cat only to realize it wasn’t one of her own! Turns out, Artemis had figured out how to open the door handle to her foster room and decided to go on a house tour and cuddle up right next to her foster family. When she’s not busy showing off her skills, Artemis loves playing with kicker toys, toy mice, and silvervine sticks. She’s also ridiculously quick with string toys this little huntress has some serious moves! She’s still deciding how she feels about other cats and hasn’t met kids or dogs yet, but with proper introductions, she may do just fine. One thing’s for sure Artemis is smart, sweet, and will absolutely keep you entertained! If you’re looking for a curious, playful, and loving queen to rule your home, Artemis is ready for her throne!

Story
Mystic is a quiet, reserved girl who just needs time, patience, and the right family to help her blossom. She’s been around kids (but prefers to keep her distance), has coexisted peacefully with a calm dog, and does well with other cats especially confident ones who might help her feel more at ease. Right now, Mystic isn’t a fan of human touch she shies away from pets, but in a quiet and patient home, we believe she’ll warm up with time. And while she may be shy around people, she’s a total goofball when she thinks no one is watching! String toys, ball toys, scratching posts she’s all about the playtime! Food is the key to her heart she’s a little food-motivated (okay, maybe very food-motivated) Mystic would do best in a calm, moderately active home with a patient adopter who understands that love and trust take time. We truly believe that with the right environment, this sweet girl will come out of her shell and become a wonderful companion. Could you be the one to help her shine?

Story
Meet Simba — aka Mack Truck in disguise! This hunky, chunky, all muscle cuddle machine is the strong, silent type… until the pets start, and then it’s full-on purr mode. Simba’s got that big ol’ tomcat energy—muscular build, giant noggin (seriously, it's glorious), and a mysterious past. He’s learning that soft beds and gentle humans aren’t so bad after all. He’s shy and cautious at first, but give him some time and he’ll be nudging your hand for more pets in no time. His happy place? Curled up in his cozy cat bed, soaking in the safety and quiet. Simba doesn’t really "do" toys or window perches (yet), and the vacuum? He is scared of it so he would prefer not to be around when you are doing chores. But he does love affection, peace, and being treated like the king he was born to be. He might swipe at fast-moving hands or feet—classic former street cat reflexes—so he'd do best in a home with older kids. But with other cats? Cool. Dogs? Probably fine. Simba is looking for a calm, steady home where he can settle in and shine at his own pace. He’s all heart under that muscle, and once you earn his trust, you’ll have a loyal, head-butting buddy for life. Ready to welcome this gentle Mack Truck of a cat into your home? Simba’s waiting!

Story
Sarah is a sweet, calm, and independent lady who knows exactly what she wants in life: a cozy window perch, a quiet routine, and a human who understands the art of good petting! She’s spent time with a 6-year-old and does well with kids as long as they respect her space and keep their cuddles grounded. After raising her kittens (a full-time job, thank you very much), Sarah is ready to retire from motherhood and enjoy some well-deserved one-on-one time with her favorite people. She loves attention and will head butt and meow nonstop for pets. While she’s not into being held or curled up on your lap, she’s recently started lying next to her foster, enjoying the comfort of being close on her own terms. Sarah is incredibly people-friendly—she purrs the moment you walk into the room and isn’t shy around strangers. She’s low maintenance and low energy: toys don’t do much for her, but lounging in the sunshine or watching the world go by from a cat tree? Absolute bliss. She may be okay with a calm cat companion after a slow introduction, but truth be told, she’d really prefer to be your one and only. After all, she’s earned some peace and quiet! Sarah is also a very vocal gal she’s not afraid to speak her mind and will happily chat with you throughout the day. If you’re looking for a mellow, affectionate, and adorably opinionated kitty, Sarah might just be your perfect match.

My Mother-in-Law died and when we cleaned her apartment this cat ran out of the bedroom. We didn’t know she had a cat. We took it home and spoiled her in honor of Mom but we are just not cat people. This cat is super loving, purrs like crazy when you hold her like a baby and she nuzzles your head…She is a dream cat for the right family. When she stares at you with those bright green eyes it will melt your heart!
