Story
It breaks my heart to do this, but due to my current living situation, I’m looking for a loving new home for my 2-year-old orange cat. She is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and loves being around people. She’s fully litter box trained and has a gentle, loving personality that makes her a wonderful companion. She will come with everything she needs, including: * Litter box * Water fountain * Automatic cat feeder * Brush * Nail clippers * And other cat supplies My biggest priority is finding someone who will give her the love, care, and stable home she deserves. I want to make sure she goes to someone who will treat her like family. If you’re interested or have any questions, please send me a message. I’d love to tell you more about her and make sure she’s a good fit for the right home.

Aziraphale, or Azi for short, is truly an angel! Once he's warmed up to someone, his favorite thing in the world is to be petted. He has the loudest purr ever!Once Sylvie feels comfortable she is definitely a Velcro Cat! She always wants to see what you are doing and loves attention.They have been fostered by us since they were quite young, but due to unforeseen circumstances on our end we were unable to secure a home for them at that time. Now, we want to make sure they can find their forever home!We are looking for someone who can adopt them together. As you can see from the pictures, they love to cuddle together!The listed adoption fee of $40 is to cover a pre-adoption vet check and vaccines to bring them up to date.

River is a very sweet kitty, around 2.5 years old. She loves to be petted, once she's friendly with someone. She likes to look at herself in reflections: she's a very contemplative cat!

Now, we want to make sure she can find her forever home!The $20 adoption fee is specifically to cover her vet visit and updated vaccinations (as of 3/31/2026). She is in perfect health.

Story
I am currently living in my car with my two cats Abee and Brownee and both are siblings. They were both born in 2020. Brownee the sister of Abee came from the first litter . Abee is also very sweet temperament and loves to be petted and rubbed . They both love to play with Lasor lights and toys with catnip. Unfortunately I unable to keep them due to homelessness and hot car is not good place to keep them. They both deserve a loving home with plenty of attention. But due to losing my job and living on my vehicle it has been rough to support them and keep them healthy . So please contact me asap they need homes before this summer starts to get hotter

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
My 7-year-old cat, Alfie, is the greatest cat I've ever met. He is very relaxed and is very affectionate. He is good with other animals and young children. Alfie is a perfect companion for adults as well. He is quiet and hardly meows. He loves music, especially live music. We often have pianos playing and people singing in our house, and Alfie always wants to be where the music is. He loves to feel the vibrations of the piano and lie underneath the piano player's bench while they play. He doesn't hiss or scratch at people; he is not aggressive in any way. If I had the means to meet his medical needs, I would keep him forever. However, Alfie needs a non-emergency cystotomy to remove a large bladder stone. He also has hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This would require his owner to pay for an $8000 surgery. As of now, he is stable. But he should have the surgery sooner rather than later to prevent blockage. If you have the means to help him, please understand that he is 100% worth it!
