Story
Pepper was a feral kitten that I rescued with her sister, Ginger, when they were two weeks old. They were supposed to be barn cats on my ranch but I was too afraid to let them out for the first year. As a result they have lived inside and rarely go outside because to the predictor animals where I live. She and her sister and very sweet but shy until they get to know you. I had another cat they didn't get along with so they have always lived inside my bedroom. My husband passed away over three years ago and I need to sell my ranch. I will be moving into town and am not able to take the cats. It would be great if she and her sister could be adopted together but I think there I’ll be fine if they are adopted separately.

Story
We took in an orange10-year old cat orphaned when his elderly owner died in April. We wanted to provide a loving home for an older cat in his later years. He's a healthy, sweet cat who craves being petted, so much so that he's underfoot a lot and doesn't move out of the way like most pets who wouldn't want stepped on. I had a knee replacement several months ago and my 90-year old husband, who is on blood thinners, walks gingerly, and we've almost tripped several times when the cat doesn't move and a fall would be catastrophic for my husband especially. Spraying water doesn't phase Tobi and gentle nudges and firm words to move him may cause him to hiss at us. I don't know what his past 10 years have been like but he's just not a good fit with us. He's an indoor cat, well litter box trained, loves the cat tree and can be playful with even bottle lids on the floor. I want him to live out his life in a happy place.

Larry is 15 weeks old. He is the sweetest kitten. Loves cuddles and kisses. He loves to play with his sister and I would prefer if they were to be adopted together if possible. He’s very open to trying new things and doesn’t mind being put in silly clothes

Story
My father adopted Winnie and Arnie 3 years ago but he is now in hospice and will not return home. Winnie is a shy, cautious girl. She likes play and petting but on her schedule. She is a watcher. She enjoys spying on the action of the household. Winnie needs a patient cat owner who is ok with her deciding when it’s time for love or play. Winnie and Arnie (also listed) get along well but I believe she would get along with all other pets.

Story
Squid is 3yrs old, spayed and no previous medical issues.She's great with cats and small dogs (maybe bigger? unsure)She has become a little sad due to my other cats passing so if you have cats that's a bonus! You'll get to see her sillyness come out a lot more with other cats.Sadly I am moving and I can no longer home her.I feel she'd be great with someone who lives quiet and calm maybe even works from home as she is a little skittish but super loving with the need for a lot of attention. She would not be good as an outside cat unless you want to work on that but she is scared easily and been that way since I got her.You wont be disappointed bringing her into your life she truly is the sweetest cat with such an adorable meow and lots of personality.
