Story
We named him Brutus since he was such a large male cat. He is under 2 years old and a gentle giant. He is very smart, can be shy. Good at following direction. Likes to park in your lap for lots of petting and scratching his neck and ears. He was outside and did not seem like a true feral. We think someone dropped him off and left him. We started feeding him and he soon wanted to come inside. Once the weather got cold we took Brutus and the kittens in. The kittens in the photos were from a liter where the mom died (we think from rat poison) and Brutus took over her duties as mom. He watched out over the kittens and still does. He grooms them and plays with them. He calls them when he is unsure of where they are and they run to him. It would be ideal if they could all go together to a new home. However, I know that may not be possible. Or if any two of them could stay together. Brutus is gray and white. An indoor cat only and we prefer he go to someone keeping him indoors.

Story
Got her August 2024, she’s been great and playful and cuddly. She is a bit feisty with other cats that visit the window. Likes walks but not required. She is very vocal with needs and will sleep with you. I am too mentally ill to give her the care she needs now.

Story
Styx is a great cat, extremely friendly, sociable and loving. He cuddles with us daily, comes to the door when there are visitors, and loves laying in front of the fireplace or in a big patch of sun. I have had him for 3 years now after my ex left him when she moved out. After she left, Styx became more anxious, more needy, and would get visibly concerned if a suitcase was taken out. There is another cat in the house, and while he was ok before she left, he has become more stressed with the other cat, particularly around litter box usage and general fighting. I have tried multiple things to assist with behavior (three litter boxes, different pheromones, creating his own space, etc) but we live in a small apartment and it does not seem to have helped their relationship or Styx's anxiety. If we had more space we'd separate him from the other cat more, but that's not feasible and I know he would be much happier in his own, new space where he isn't waiting for his owner to come back.

Story
Milton is a lover! He is very very relaxed and loves to sit with you. And He can be very playful and likes to jump up on furniture and balance on the back of my chair. Loves his toys. He lives with me and my shitzu and I babysit another doggie. They all get along. He has been around other cats at his babysitters. I don’t want to give Milton up however I am an older person and I have back issues & surgeries. I ‘m going to have to move into a place where they won’t allow him. Let me know if you want to meet him & take a chance on falling in love. I will only let him go to a home that wants to love him.
