Story
“Aries” is about 9 months old. He was found in a parking lot when he was about 3-4 months. He’s a big baby boy but very sweet and quite timid. He’s not very vocal unless it’s dinner time. He tends to hide when he’s uncertain about a new person or situation but he slowly comes out and loves being petted. His foster home has a resident dog and cat. He mostly ignores the dog and likes to play with the cat or be groomed by her. Other than that he loves naps. He is house trained. He is food motivated and can even “sit” (sort of) for a treat.

Story
Simon is a handsome scamp, affectionate and personable. An accomplished hunter and indoor/outdoor cat, he would do great as a barn cat, keeping the vermin population down. He's an orange tabby with a pale, soft, short coat, with a sprinkling of ragdoll and Bengal in his lineage. (We got him as a kitten from a family friend who used to breed cats.) He gets along with two of our other cats just fine, but has beef with the third one, and occasionally gets into fights with her. This has led to territorial disputes and peeing outside the litter box to mark territory. We think that, in the right home, and with plenty of time outside to wander, hunt, and lounge about, Simon would be happier and better behaved. He is SUPER friendly and outgoing and a favorite fixture among our neighbors. He loves to just hang out nearby his humans, especially outside in the backyard. If you're looking for a new buddy who is both independent and loyal, he's your guy.

Story
Nana and Popo are twins. Nana is a sweet cat, at first she’s cautious and distant but when you gain her love and trust she’s always around/with you. Popo will also be a little distant at first but he warms up quickly and he’s so so sweet. He’s also the most vocal cat I’ve ever met. Every morning he greets you with many meows and anytime you go into a room or come back from the store or anything. They’re both good with cats, nana isn’t so much of a playing with the other cats she grooms them and cuddles. Popo is super playful and also cuddly with other cats. They’re both so amazing to watch interact and it’s super cool that they are literal twins.

Story
I’m looking to rehome my sweet 1½-year-old female tabby to a loving, responsible family. She comes with an automatic litter box, mat, cat tree and other toys, cleaning wipes, flee medication in case it’s ever needed, and a 12lb bag of Tiki Cat dry food ✨ About her: *Spayed *Up to date on all vaccinations (received June 30) *Affectionate and loves attention *Well-mannered and gentle *She’s small and weighs 8lbs *Litter box trained *Microchipped *Healthy and ready for her forever home My priority is finding someone who will love and care for her as much as she deserves. I want to make sure she goes to a safe, stable home where she’ll be treated like family. She has all of her papers I can email you. I typically feed her Tiki Cat After Dark and/or Fancy Feast Poultry

Story
Hi this is Peaches! I took her in about a year ago when a coworker of mine was going on a trip. When they returned they informed me that they had no intention of coming to pick her up. I didn’t have it in my heart to take her to a shelter. Unfortunately, I am moving out of state & I am unable to bring her with me due to housing restrictions. She is very shy at first but once she gets to know you, she’ll be your best friend. From my experience with her, she doesn’t care for other cats. As for dogs, i am unsure. She isn’t really a fan of small rambunctious kids. She’s never scratched my son, but she does everything she can to avoid him. She loves to cuddle and will lay on your chest for as long as you let her. She deserves her forever home.

Story
Rapunzel is a beautiful long-haired orange tabby born in March 2025. She is wonderful with children and has a sweet, gentle personality. Rapunzel has been a little skittish since she was a kitten, so she may take some time to warm up to new people and surroundings. However, once she feels safe, she is a loving and affectionate companion.Despite her shy nature, Rapunzel is a wonderful cat who would thrive in a patient, caring home that will give her the time and love she needs to build confidence. She is sure to make a wonderful addition to the right family. 🧡🐾Our greatest hope is that Rapunzel can remain with her sister, Nala, as they have always been together and share a very special bond. Due to unfortunate circumstances, we can no longer provide the care our beloved babies deserve, and making this decision has been incredibly heartbreaking for our family.
