Story
These two sweet kitties inspired my daughter to fight like a warrior to recover from her illness, but sadly, their human was taken from them and they are in need of a new forever home. They are an extremely bonded pair yet also fully engaged in their human relationships. They are indoor only. Shots are overdue but no fleas, no worms, no health issues. No behaviorial problems whatsoever. They have toys, scratchers and enrichment activities. They use an amazing litter system (Tidy Cats Breeze). No clay dust or clumps and no perceptible odor. They are both calm. sweet-tempered, playful, and snuggly. They are also both 100% self grooming though Figgy is spoiled and usually has his done by Dinah. They both give sweet nose bop kisses and Dinah can say I love you with her eyes. Figaro is a big sleek boy and weighs about 14 pounds. He is SUPER chill, very affectionate, and a spoiled baby. Toys, litter, food, etc. will be passed along. *** Please see separate listing for Dinah.

Story
Sammi is a beautiful, sweet, round black cat who I began fostering in 2019. She is a senior but you’d never guess - she’s still playful and curious. She loves to lay on your chest if you lay down on your back. She enjoys going outside but only briefly. She has the cutest round face and big eyes. She has historically gotten along well with male cats, but not female. She has some special dietary needs but no other health issues. I’m relocating internationally and the family member I thought would be able to take her is unable - I’m heartbroken to be separated from her and am trying to find her someone who will appreciate her charm and companionship.

Story
Handsome, sweet, and playful Frank. Beautiful markings and stripes down his back. Adores being loved on and pet. Not a fan of being picked up but will sleep next to you on the sofa. Sleeps with his toys, brings toys as gifts, plays fetch. Loves lettuce! Timid/spooks easily by doorbell, strangers. Warms up to anyone calm and offering a kind pet. Raised Indoors with us since a kitten. Hoped he would get along with our 11 year old male cat and tried everything for 4 years- they are just not a match. Frank is increasingly territorial and bullies/police’s older cat daily. When feeling threatened by changes he redirect’s aggression with big fights that require several days of separation. We have had many recent changes at home including a new baby, moving furniture, visitors. Frank deserves a calm, loving environment where he can let down his guard and be himself without being sent to his room alone. I feel he might get along with a female cat. Dogs may be scary. He deserves a loving home.

Story
A small kitten was heard mewing outside of our house and we took him in with the intention of finding him a home. Things did not go according to plan and he ended up living with us for much longer than anticipated. Now we're getting back on the ball and hoping to find him a home. He's lively but not too too energetic. Very friendly. Always wants to be involved.

Story
Felix was born near an Amazon facility. He and his sister were wandering the trailer yard a few days before they were caught and cared for. They were a month old. Felix is now 10 months old and still playful as ever. When it’s dinner time, he so excited and growls as he eats. He’s a cuddler but only for a little while until he’s meowing to get out.

Story
Pilot was found in engine area of vehicle as kitten in Nov 2023. Got loose in house. We earned trust over these months and now able to pet Pilot but not yet pick him up. He’s still playful and now wants to be near or next to us. Unfortunately we have a large dog who is curious, which means Pilot doesn’t get the attention he craves. Pilot needs a home and companionship.

Story
Tux is an abandoned/lost neutered male who approached me a little over a year ago. The vet approximates his age between 2 to 3 years old. I began to set food out for him and eventually got him to trust me enough to come inside. He’s has a very sweet disposition, and loves to cuddle. His meow is a tiny squeak. 😸 He likes laying with me in the chair or on the bed. He’s good at using the litter box and minds well if told ‘no’. His left ear is clipped so he may have been a TNR cat (trap-neuter-release), but he’s far too friendly to have been feral. He still insists on going outdoors but could be coaxed into being a full time indoor cat with patience. Tux would be initially shy but once you gain his trust, you’ll have a sweet, fun, affectionate companion. His health is excellent with no issues. My health is failing and I must move out of state and can’t take him with me. Please consider giving this dear cat a forever home.
