Story
Sun aka Mama was born May 2016, my dad gifted her to me at about 8 weeks old. She has had 2 litters(first at the end of 2017, second in late 2018) with 4 babies each but one didn’t last long past birth each time. She currently lives with her 3 children from her first litter. She is a very friendly and loving cat. She treats everyone and everything like her baby, from guests to my daughter’s stuffed animals. She gets along decently with other cats, and from 2(xxx) xxx-xxxx she did live with and LOVE my dad’s dog. However she hasn't been exposed to dogs since and shows fear of them. Sun loves sunbathing, eating you out of house and home, cuddling on the couch, and cleaning you like you’re her kitten. She’s a little older but she is a wonderful cat. I wish I could keep her but she isn’t happy about me having my own child now and I don’t have the time nor energy to give her the love and attention I once did. I just want her to feel loved again.

Sushi is a sweet and loving 5-year-old boy. He is gentle and calm. We adopted him from a friend who was fostering him and they could not keep him due to moving for the military. Sushi would do best in a calm environment with no other male cats.

Story
Kyra and her brother were saved from a harsh life under a deck in sweltering 109-degree heat. While Kyra eagerly approached us, her brother Mavis was too timid and scared to emerge. With the homeowners' consent, we carefully unscrewed the deck to ensure Mavis's safe rescue. Kyra is an adventurous and affectionate cat who thrives on interaction, while Mavis, though shy, blossoms in her presence. We believe that adopting them together would provide the best environment for both, as Mavis gains confidence with Kyra by his side. Don't miss the chance to welcome this charming pair into your home.

Story
Hi everyone! This is the stray cat I have been feeding for a little over a year now. He is one of the sweetest cats I have ever encountered, very loving and friendly. I have three cats of my own already; otherwise, I would have taken him in. I would love to find him a loving home. I can't bear him being outside in the heat for another summer and would love to find him a loving home. (He does still need to be neutered.) Please feel free to reach out if you are interested!

Story
I rehomed Mercy after the death of my closest family member. Unfortunately, my 11 yo Mainecoon male will not accept her. They are on separate floors and kept apart with baby gates. I spend quite a bit of time with her, but she needs to be able to roam all over and to have her own person. Mercy is an absolute love. She is affectionate, playful, and loves watching tv with you. Survivor is a favorite. She will sit next to you and rest her paw on your arm or put her paw in your hand. She loves both sitting on your lap and just being near you. She's a wonderful companion. I have her toys, blanket, and a large soft-sided carrier/crate and a hard-sided carrier. . I'm her 3rd human. Her 1st human also had a cat that was aggressive toward her, so the optimal situation is in a home without other animals, but a gentle dog or cat friendly towards cats could work.
