Story
Lilo is a timid cat, she is the runt of the litter so she takes a little while to warm up to new people. I originally adopted her sister (Bella) from a coworker. Her adopters gave her back as they had a baby and wanted a dog to grow up with their child, not a cat.. so I took in Lilo with her sister and they have had a special bond since the day they rekindled. They& have been together since about 6 months old. They were born 01/06/23. Lilo likes to give kitty kisses and she is very vocal. Lilo does not meow like any other cat, she talks. She does this mainly when she is in heat or wants pets. She really is unique in that sense. I am hoping I can find someone to take in both Lilo and her sister but ultimately just want her to go to a loving family. If both are adopted, I will give their XL corner litter box, bag of food and scratching post for free.

Story
Wavy is a sweet lover of quiet time and cuddles. She was whapped in the face by another cat when she was young and impressionable and it turned her “i want to cuddle everything and everyone” into needing to gain her trust first. She may be timid at first but once she warms up to you all she wants is to sit in your lap and nap. Sola is an adventurer at heart. She loves to explore but always comes back to cuddle. She is the brave sister and will come say hi to anyone. They both run and hide from kids, but if forced to face them they are sweet and allow themselves to be pet. Both of them are such sweet girls and I hope to find a great home for them together, however if they need to separate I understand and as well.

My name is Panda, I am a handsome sweet kitty. I will need time to adjust, you see I was dumped at a cat colony when I was 4 months old. I was really scared. I am indoors only! I like to play with toys and other kitties. I am dog friendly. I am up to date with vaccines and neutered. My adoption fee is $160.00

Story
I adopted Bella when she was 7 weeks old, she's almost 5 years old now. She's very sweet and while she may be shy at first, she loves pets and likes to cuddle. Her purring will let you know you're doing everything right. She is also playful and knows how to look cute. She's never been aggressive towards me or any humans, and never really been around dogs. Her and her brother Binx do some play fighting, but it's all love at the end of the day. She's spayed and has all of her claws. I'd prefer if she stays with her brother Binx, they've kept each other company their whole lives. Feel free to reach out for any questions!

Story
Hi my name is Rose. I've gone from being a scaredy-cat hiding under beds to demanding rubs and lap sits. I just wish I didn't have to share my owners attention with their other 2 kitties. They're also both a year old and like to play way too much for me. I need a calm relaxing home with no fast movements, lots of scratch posts, and a nice warm sunny window to bath under. If you must know I do have certain quirks: -needs to scratch and loves mouse toys -will flinch from quick movements due to past trauma -gives love bites and paw taps to demand your attention once she picks you as hers -will hide away until she trusts you (it took her a week with us) but is perfectly fine taking care of herself. -is pretty vocal when she wants something but has a sweat raspy cigarette voice.
