Story
Bob is a sweet cuddly kitty who loves to be pet and held. He is great with babies and has always been gentle with my son. I adopted Bob from a shelter in 2012 when he was just a few months old. He has been my bff for many years. Now I have a family and moving out of the area. Unfortunately the place we’re moving to won’t allow us to bring Bob so we are looking for him a new home. Bob is an elderly cat, but you would never know it. He loves to play and he loves to cuddle. He loves to run around and he loves his scratching post. His favorite pastime is eating treats and laying in his bed. I am looking for a new home for Bob. The ideal person would be willing to give Bob lots of cuddles, attention and treats. He is an indoor only cat and has no major health issues. I can include his self-cleaning litter box (new), bed, old scratching post, grooming hair trimmer clippers and vacuum, nail clippers, toys, and food bowl.

Story
Loki was given to me as a stray in March of 2023. He was very sweet from the beginning and adapted very well to being an indoor cat. As most young cats are he is really playful and can be very affectionate. He likes being around people and is just under 2 years old so still has some kitten like tendencies as he learns to play safely. I do feed him Hill's Science diet for indoor cats as he has had a UTI in the past and this was just vet recommended. He loves his tower and will take time to adapt to a new home. We are relocating across the country at the end of October and unfortunately will not be able to take him with us. We want to find him a great home where he has room to move, play, and grow. We hope to find him a great home soon!

Story
Ino (ee-no) is a very loving girl! She’s a little overweight which we’re working on now. I’ve had her for about 6 years now and I have been her only owner. Shes a couch potato, chicken loving, cutie. She spends most of her day in bed and loves playtime with lasers and catnip. She used to have a cat brother who ran away and she’s been lonely since. She really loved him. She now has a 95 pound dog sister who she is tolerant of (lol). She will need a warming up period in any home, she’s very shy at first. Car rides are okay when she can roam. We are moving cross country and I fear the travel in plane or long car ride will be too much for her so I’d love to find her a new home. All I ask is that she has a loving home, space to roam, and she can be herself! She’s also very good with her litter box but needs it cleaned at least once a day or she will let you know.
