Story
Hi, I’m looking to rehome my cat Star. She’s about 2 years old, spayed, and up to date on all her shots. She’s honestly a really great cat super sweet and playful, but also totally fine doing her own thing. She loves to sunbathe. She’s been around other cats and does well, but she can take a bit of time to warm up at first.

Story
Turbo and Asher are gentle loving 10 month old bonded brothers ready to begin the next chapter of their life. The brothers were found as tiny kittens after being left behind by renters who relocated. I rescued them and when they were old enough I had them neutered and given their shots. They are indoor cats very well adjusted and get along well with small dogs. They love attention and purr and purr when being petted, held and carried. They like to rub on your legs and follow you around. They will probably be a bit shy at first. With a little patience and kindness, they will bond with their new family showing their sweet loving spirit.

Story
Grover, a handsome black cat, is looking for a special family who can offer him the love and patience he needs to blossom. While he may seem shy at first, Grover has a gentle heart and a lot of potential.After a rough start in life, Grover has spent over a year and a half in foster care. Unfortunately, his early experiences have made him fearful of people. However, with the right care and understanding, Grover could learn to trust and love.Grover is a curious and independent cat who enjoys exploring his surroundings. Hes comfortable coming out to eat and will often be found venturing outside at night. But during the day, he prefers the safety of his hiding spot. While Grover may not be ready for physical affection just yet, he's a gentle soul who doesn't scratch or bite. With time and patience, he could learn to appreciate the comfort of a loving human touch.Are you the patient and understanding family who can help Grover overcome his fears and discover the joy of companionship? If so, Grover would love to be part of your family.He has been neutered, has a microchip and his shots.

Story
T'Challa: The Gentle Warrior Seeking Her Forever Safe HavenMeet T'Challa, a magnificent, short-haired black cat whose incredible spirit has endured unimaginable hardship. This beautiful girl, listed as an American Shorthair, is more than just an adoptable cat; she is a survivor yearning for the peace only a loving home can provide. T'Challa is the sister of Grey, who is also seeking a forever family (please note: they are not a bonded pair).T'Challa carries the invisible scars of a life lived rough. When she was saved by Rescue Street, an organization focused on finding loving homes for pets who have been abandoned or mistreated, she was painfully thin and matted. She has since had a beautiful "glow up," but the emotional trauma remains. The tip of her ear is gone, a sign of her time in the field before rescue, telling a story of survival on the streets. Her deep-seated fear and shyness suggest she was likely attacked by a large dog in the past; because of this, big dogs are not a good fit for her future.Right now, T'Challa is a shy and timid girl, still working tirelessly to adjust to the unbelievable comfort of indoor life and learning that humans can be trusted. She is incredibly gentle and not aggressive at all, even though she often needs the safety of a hiding spot to feel secure.But look closer, the love is there!T'Challa is desperately trying to connect. You'll know she is nearby because she sweetly vocalizes to you from her safe space, a quiet sign of her longing for companionship. For the person patient enough to wait, the reward is profound:She is a confident foodie: She won't let you forget a meal! She loves her food and will clearly "say" when she is hungry.She has a massive heart waiting to unlock: Once she feels truly safe, T'Challa is an astonishingly affectionate cat. She loves pets so much that she will melt, literally slopping over onto you, turning into pure, gentle devotion.T'Challa doesn't need a perfect home; she needs a hero. She requires a quiet home with no large dogs to ensure her peace of mind. She would be an excellent solo pet but will learn to love other cats. If you are the person who recognizes that T'Challa is not broken, but merely waiting for unconditional love to heal, she needs you.We are seeking a patient, understanding adopter who can offer the time, space, and encouragement this gentle soul needs to finally blossom into the confident cat she deserves to be. Providing a calm, predictable environment is the key to letting her quiet, gentle personality shine through.If you are ready to open your heart to a sad story and witness the beautiful transformation of this brave survivor, please fill out an adoption application today. Give T'Challa the chance to know what true, permanent safety feels like. Please visit our website www.rescuestreet.com to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Story
Fudgie is the most wonderful little cat. She had a rough beginning to life and has lived by herself, isolated from other cats while she fought a mysterious illness. Once we figured out what was going on and she got some dental work done, she was right as rain.This girl is so incredibly loving. She will rub and get pets and does the most adorable flops when she's getting attention. Her Fudgie flops are just full of love. Fudgie would do wonderfully in a quiet home. She does get along with dogs and most cats, as long as they are not aggressive. She is a small-sized cat, and she will not get much bigger. Are you ready to open your home and, most importantly, your heart to this wonderful, gentle girl?

This adorable loving cat was found in Flagstaff on NAU campus. I brought him back down to the valley thinking it would be easier to find him a home. My current cat does not get along with him, therefore he cannot possibly stay with me. I have asked everyone I know if they are able to take him. I’m getting desperate!! He’s a sweet boy who just needs a home.

This is Bonnie! We’re took her in last February when she was found with no mom along with other kittens. She was freshly born so we bottle fed her and nourished her to life. Shes friendly and funny, and definitely can be feisty at times but she’s a good cat. She has also been acting up and peeing on my son’s things. She is recently spayed and update to date on her shots but will need booster in a couple weeks. I also think she is not happy with getting less attention and is acting out. She deserves a home with love and attention.

Story
Meet Bernard! This 5 year old is definitely a girls cat. He may be a boy but he loves dressing up, watching you do your makeup/hair, and keeping you company during bubble baths. He loves basking in the sun and following you around when you’re home. He cuddles at night and makes biscuits until you fall asleep. His only flaw is that he doesn’t like men. He would need some time to adjust to them. He grew up around a German Shepherd, cat, and a ferret so as long as they know he’s king he allows them in his kingdom.
