Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Oreo came into our lives as a teeny, mewing three-day-old. His mama (a gorgeous Siamese with sky blue eyes) was trapped and gave birth to Oreo, his brother, and two sisters in the trap shortly after.  Before he was named Oreo we called him Feisty - of all the kittens he had the most to say as we brought him home. We couldn't have been any farther off.   We've come to know Oreo to be a thoughtful, gentle, affectionate, and patient kitten.    Of the litter, he is the most timid, but he is by no means shy. He has a slow, old-soul feel about him and takes his time to assess any situation. He'll often observe as his litter mates tumble over a toy while he patiently waits his turn and his purr is a soft rumble like a storm a couple miles in the distance.    Once he's opened up it's not uncommon for him to stop by for a snuggle. While I'm working he'll sometimes snuggle in my arms and chest and politely avoids laying on the keyboard. Otherwise he'll rest somewhere soft nearby.    If he's anywhere he ought not to be, a gentle clap will get him out of trouble. He will even (happily) leave a room if you call him with a "here kitty kitty" as we've tied that phrase to treats. He is a very, very good kitten.    Things we love about Oreo: • He stomps a little when he comes down the stairs and it's adorable. We can literally tell it's him just from the stomps.  • AKA Blackbean because he has one solitary black foot pad on his left rear foot, all the rest are pink.  • AKA The Riddler because his tail makes a perfect question mark. • We also call him double stufd because of the thick white stripe on his belly. • He is so, so gentle and is very careful not to claw.  • He will sometimes oversee litter cleanings and make sure everything is up to par.  • He rests his paws on top of the water bowl when he drinks.  • Sometimes he purrs when he plays.    Things Oreo Loves: • Watching TV • Being near his people.  • Looking at and/or Pawing Water • Kleenex - used or not!   Favorite Toy:  Kitty Dancer  Balled up paper - sticky notes especially Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.    Our adoption fee is $175       If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Cat Interest Form on AZRAIN.ORG and, if you are selected as a prospective adopter, we will contact you to set up a meet and greet. Thank you for considering rescuing an animal in need!     March 22, 2025, 5:52 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Prince is a orange tabby with a handsome coat and face.  He is approximately 5-7 years old. He has lived in a shelter  for a number of years after his owner passed away.  Prince is a very cautious guy around new humans but loves the company of other cats. He has come a long way since first arriving at the shelter. He enjoys being brushed, rubbed with scatcher, and petted on his back. He loves Fancy Feast too! Prince would be consider a "socially awkward cat".  What is a socially awkward cat?  Some cats are shy, timid, or fearful of people and other cats. They may hide, avoid, or even lash out when approached by strangers. These cats are not mean or unlovable; they are just socially awkward and need extra time and patience to trust and bond with their human companions. They may never become affectionate lap cats, but they have their own unique ways of showing love and appreciation. If you are looking for a cat who will challenge you, surprise you, and reward you with loyalty and devotion, then you might be the perfect match for one of our socially awkward cats.   Because these cats require more patience and understanding than most, we have a few special policies regarding them:   We will ask more questions about your home environment, other pets, children, and other details to make sure you are the right match for the cat. Please don't be discouraged if you are not the right fit! We have many other cats, and one of them is sure to be a fit. We typically arrange video meet-and-greets for these cats for the initial contact. Most of these cats get stressed out by new situations, and allowing them to be seen without that stress trigger makes for a better experience for everyone. We may discount the adoption fees for these cats. Our first priority is to find the right match between cat and human, and we realize that these kitties may take more time than most to settle in and determine compatibility.   If you think you may be the right fit for Prince or another one of our socially awkward cats, please fill out an interest form today!  Prince has become bonded to his bestie Bourbon - they do everything together and help each other navigate the scariness of the world together!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.    Our adoption fee is $175       If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Cat Interest Form on AZRAIN.ORG and, if you are selected as a prospective adopter, we will contact you to set up a meet and greet. Thank you for considering rescuing an animal in need!     November 15, 2024, 9:59 am

Story
Very friendly and cuddly cat. Unfortunately i have been having behavioral issues with him for years and it seems to only be with me and has no issues when being cat sat by others in their homes. He has frequently peed on my bed so he is no longer allowed in my room, poops in the tub even though his litter box is in the same room and completely clean. I have tried different litter, different boxes and nothing helps. He has peed on my clothes without my knowledge and i have done laundry only for all of my clothes needing to be thrown away. Including my expensive work clothes. Not to mention i am allergic and it makes me break out in hives. He also is extremely vocal and I get frequent noise complaints and honestly its just overstimulating after coming home from a long day at work. I have come to the conclusion that he just isnt happy living with me and i would like to rehome him somewhere that he wont have these issues.

Story
On 4/12/2025, I was returning from the store, and as I was parking at my apartment complex, Jake walked up to the van. He had this look and a stance that suggested that he wanted to jump into the van through my window. So I got out and greeted him. He was friendly so I petted him. He insisted on following me. Long story short I was hoping that he would go home after I helped him. He did not have a collar. He is a cool cat, so I allowed him to stay during the day, and kicked him out at night. He decided to stay and so I allowed this for short term. I guess he needed saving because he has not left for a week. I thought he would find his way back home, but I suspect someone ditched him here at the apartments. It is best he finds a home now, because in the long term, he can not come with me when I move back in with my Wife's house where we have 3 dogs. Jake is now attached to me, but I am unable to keep him in the long term.
