Story
Hi! I’m Tinga. I was adopted from IACS in February. 6 months later my previous owner tried to return me due to landlord fees. The shelter is already overcapacity and requires appointments. I was about to be dumped outside when one of the workers decided to take me home and try to re home me themselves. At first I was at my house, and then I was put in a box, taken back to the scary shelter, and then taken to a random place that I’ve never been before! I was so confused! I hid under the bed for a whole day. I never showed any signs of aggression I was just scared being in this unfamiliar place. But once I came out I let her know how sweet I was and how much I love pets. Now I cuddle and lay on the bed instead of under. She already has two cats and a dog in a one bedroom apartment with low funds. If her situation was different she would love to have me. I am around a year and a half and have lived with another cat in my previous home. I am playful and so nice :)

Story
Baby is very sweet and likes to snuggle. She frequently lays with me in bed and on the couch. She’s very vocal and like to talk. She is not a fan of belly rubs. She likes to come inside and sleep or nap but likes to adventure outside and climb trees. Her favorite toys include lasers, her fake pet mouse, and a stuffed penguin. She also comes with litter box, litter, grey cube bed and cat bowls. Her water bowl is a water fountain that gets plugged in.

Story
Sweet kitty dumped downtown seeks special new home! This 1-year-old tabby boy was left at the doors of a TV station on St. Patrick's Day. He wasn't fixed or chipped, but he had obviously been an indoor kitty -- super friendly, easy to handle and always uses the litter box. He is FIV+, a condition that weakens a cat's immune system, which left him vulnerable to a blood infection that caused him to nearly bleed out after his neuter. Thankfully, he's responded well to antibiotics and has had a smooth recovery! He is about a year old, playful and warms up to people quickly. FIV+ cats can live with non-infected cats as long as everyone is fixed (but he shouldn't live with immunocompromised cats since he may remain a carrier for the blood infection). He'll also need to be an indoor-only kitty with monthly flea treatments and regular vet checkups to help keep his immune system strong. He'd do best in a low-stress home with experienced cat people who have time to care for a recovering kitty!

Franklin is 4 years old and about 9 pounds. He was adopted from Petsmart. Franklin is fun, friendly, full of personality, and a great cuddler. He would be a suitable for all ages. He loves attention! He is up to date on his vaccines, just needs 2024 vaccines. I can no longer keep Franklin due to moving, pregnancy, bad allergies, and small children.

Story
Moe is a very sweet, loyal, energetic, and loving kitty cat. He is about 2 years old and gets along with cats and dogs very well. He loves to play and is extremely curious and always has to know what is going on. Why we are choosing to rehome him : He has been having some bladder issues and has been going pee in some very unfavorable places. We believe this is due to us recently adopting a puppy which has caused him a lot of stress and is causing behavioral issues. Before the puppy he was just with our other cat and did extremely well. He requires special food to help with UTIs. He would do great alone or with one other non-dominant cat.

Story
Dude is a great kitty. He needs to be an indoor/outdoor cat. He is smart enough to know when he is more comfortable inside but when it is nice outside, that is where he wants to be. Kids love him as he is very good with them. He will get frustrated with adults when he doesn't get his way. Luckily his needs are pretty simple: feed me, play with me, and get me outside! He is not content to stay in a catio as his exposure to the outside. He will enjoy it for a while but will want a larger territory to roam. He will ready to come back in and play once he's had his fill of the great outdoors. My HOA doesn't allow for outdoor kitties. I think he might do well with other cats but I do not want to buy a second cat. I want him to live optimally and so I am rehoming him though I will miss him. I just can't provide him with what he really wants. He has regular vet visits. He doesn't like them and the vet will provide you with anxiety pills to help him with the vet visits.

Story
Lucky is a sweet, shy cat who has been a part of our family (extended and direct) for the last five years. He is skittish around strangers and small children- we have a two year old daughter and the energy level of her and our other cats has become too much for him. We would love to see him in a home with no other pets (cats, dogs) and no small children as he is most comfortable as an only cat. He will watch TV in your lap, sleep with you at night, and loves to eat treats from your hand. Lucky is in perfect health and comes with his updated vet records and tags as of January 2024!

Story
I am sweet loving girl that is a little misunderstood sometimes. It will take me a while to warm up and get adjusted to my new home so I will probably hide under the bed for a bit. But when I know that I am Safe and in a Loving Home, I will come out and play with the tennis ball and chase strings. I might even try to play with your toes. I enjoy getting the in the cat tree and watching the birds and squirrels. I also would love for you to give me belly rubs. 😻 I am patiently waiting for my ForEverHome. 🐾❤️ If you would like two girl cats I do have a sister named Precious (formerly known as India) that is also waiting for her ForEverHome. 😺 Thank You for reading and considering me as a part of the Family! 🏡❤️🐈
