Story
A small kitten was heard mewing outside of our house and we took him in with the intention of finding him a home. Things did not go according to plan and he ended up living with us for much longer than anticipated. Now we're getting back on the ball and hoping to find him a home. He's lively but not too too energetic. Very friendly. Always wants to be involved.

Story
Felix was born near an Amazon facility. He and his sister were wondering the trailer yard a few days before they were caught and cared for. They were a month old. Felix is now 10 months old and still playful as ever. When it’s dinner time, he so excited and growls as he eats. He’s a cuddler but only for a little while until he’s meowing to get out.

Pilot was found in engine area of vehicle as kitten in Nov 2023. Got loose in house. We earned trust over these months and now able to pet Pilot but not yet pick him up. He’s still playful and now wants to be near or next to us. Unfortunately we have a large dog who is curious, which means Pilot doesn’t get the attention he craves. Pilot needs a home and companionship.

Story
Gracie is a snuggler and a very loving companion, but she needs a home where she is the only cat. She was separated from her sister before we adopted her and has been reluctant to make friends with any other kitties for years since, to the point where she becomes reclusive and hides away until she can be alone with her humans. This has made it harder for her to enjoy life with our two other cats. We love Gracie but want her to feel secure with a loving family she can call her own.
