Story
Maggie is a 2-year-old cat (breed Short Hair Domestic), weighing about 2.3 lbs. She is an independent, gentle cat who takes time to build trust but shows steady progress once she feels safe and comfortable. Maggie has no known health issues and has been well cared for since coming into our home. She gets along well with other cats and would likely benefit from a calm environment with a consistent routine. Maggie originally took shelter in our garage, and we brought her indoors during the colder months in Fall 2025 to ensure her safety and comfort. Since then, she has adjusted to indoor living and continues to grow more at ease each day. Maggie would do best in a patient, quiet home where she can continue to settle in at her own pace. We are looking to rehome her as soon as possible, while making sure she finds the right long-term home.

Story
This is one of the hardest decisions I have had to make as I really love my Prada. I doubt I’ll ever find a cat like her. Shes sweet, she cuddles, she knows her name and respond to that or Prada mama & Prada Marie. She speaks back if you call her and understands “come here”. She’s my precious baby however we will be moving out of the country for school and I want her to have a happy safe home. She LOVES to play and she got along great with the other cats I had before. She is a sweetie pie. Her bday is October 6th! Her favorite toys are scratchers and light beams. You may have her and her toys (I clean them), her litter box, and the dog cage that we use to keep her out the way when we clean, and her bed/the wicker chair you see in the picture.

Story
Gigi is a female tabby, about a year and a few months old, weighing approximately 2.3 lbs. She is very friendly, affectionate, and enjoys being around people.

Gigi originally took shelter in our garage, and we brought her indoors during the colder months in Fall 2025 to ensure her safety and comfort.

Flakes is a very happy and active cat. He's the dad of Snow and 5 others. he's very loving and requires much attention and love. He loves kids, and loves to run and play.

Story
Meet Kitty! Kitty came to us in August when her ownder could no longer care for. While she had a difficult time adadpting to shelter life, she has come out of her shell and done very well while in her foster home! Her foster has noted that she loves to play fetch but will only consistently return one specific fuzzy ball, which is her favorite toy! She sleeps at the foot of their bed at night, but she gets up to snack on her food sometimes! She loves to come up to people on her own, and can be selective about being pet but she appreciates when it is on her own terms! Kitty is still getting acclimated to loud noises, and tends to hide but her foster noted that she does recover quickly and is actively working on her resilience:) Kitty loves when the TV is left on for her so she can get some background noise to help her feel more comfortable. If you're looking for a sweet and loving lady, Kitty is your girl! Interested in adopting? Please fill out an application at this link: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ACIL/Cat Please specify the animal's name and ID number (if the ID number is not entered, we may mix up the animal you're interested in!)

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Daffodil is a loyal, affectionate, playful cat who loves any & all of his toys and snuggling next to his human(s). He'll make a great pet in a home where somebody is nearby during the day as he really enjoys being near you, but he also does well if he needs to be left alone. He is conversational and will let you know when he wants to eat or play. A house with accessible windows or a nice perch would be ideal, since he loves to climb up and watch the world go by. He loves wet food and is very neat with the litter box. He’s really the perfect cat companion! Daffodil is one of our special care animals due to chronic upper respiratory infections and gingivitis, which can require a little extra vet care, but such a perfectly charming guy is absolutely worth the extra investment. Daffodil is currently in foster! If you're interested in adopting Daffodil, please fill out an application at this link: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ACIL/Cat Make sure to include his name and ID number in the application! A staff member will reach out to you shortly to arrange a meet and greet!
