Story
Scotty and Diana have been hanging out in one of my grandmas spare rooms since we trapped them back in mid December. Due to unforeseen circumstances, they need to be out by the 1st of February!!! We need a long-term foster, and QUICK!! Have a spare bedroom for these easy keepers? Litter box trained, no spraying or marking and both are altered! Everything you need will be provided, food, litter, veterinary, EVERYTHING! They're both former ferals, so they take some time to warm up. My grandma is now able to pet Scotty Diana takes a little longer to warm up, but was rubbing against my Grandma's leg by the 3rd week! Home check required

Story
Timmy is an active and social 7 month old kitten. He loves to play with other cats and to be cradled like a baby. He was a stray I found in my apartment complex in November. I am moving soon and will not have the space for him. He has no medical issues and would be a great addition to a feline family or in a single cat home.

Story
Smokey is a rescue kitty from a kitten nursery. He was found underneath an abandoned couch in someone's alley. At the time of rescue he wasn't weened from mama kitty but was abandoned. He went to a kitten nursery where he grew, thrived and made friends with another kitten. I adopted both him and his new sister in September of 2020. In December of 2020 he ventured into the yard where he was attacked by a feral cat. He sustained an injury to his chest wall which required surgical draining due to infection. He physically recovered from the injury and has grown into a beautiful grey adult. However, due to the attack he seemed to develop PTSD and would no longer bond with the other two female cats in my home. Smokey wants to be an only cat in the house. When separated from my other cats he is lovable, playful, snugly an affectionate. He seems to see the other cats as taking love away from him. He needs a new home where he can be the king of his household. He wants solo love and affection.

We are late in life and cannot care for her any longer . Nixy never meows or misses her litter box and stays inside always. She is not a cuddler but very easy to have around. She eats only dry food and a dry treat twice a day besides her dry food.

Story
___ "Chonk" is 7 years old and an indoor-only cat. He's laid back, and very affectionate. ___ He likes to sleep near you, just a little under the covers. ;-) He 'trills' at you to 'talk' to you, and sometimes to wake you up for attention. ;-) ___ He's the best snuggle buddy ever with a sweet temperament. ___ He will tolerate a dog that's not hyper and that will ignore him. ___ He has "issues" with vacuum cleaners & brooms - he hisses at them and will hide. ;-) -- I'm hoping for a new owner who will keep Chonk forever, and care for him the way he deserves.
