Story
Jr. is one of five born on July 5th in our yard. His mother is a community cat that we look after. We took the litter in and have been looking after Mom and the babies ever since. Unfortunately, we have too many animals, and we can't keep him permanently. Jr is the biggest personality of his litter. He loves to sit in weird positions and is often seen sleeping fully on his back or draped over pillows. Like his twin, Hunter, Jr is very vocal when he is playing. He will cry or complain when wrestling, but the second they let up, he'll attack, proving it was all an act. When he isn't playing, he is snuggling. Jr LOVES a good head scratch or belly rub. He never hesitates to claim a lap, even if it's already occupied. He is very bonded with his brother Hunter, but would be ok being adopted alone. Medical note: A case of tapeworms hit the litter, two of them caught it pretty bad and were actively treated, but he was not affected.

Story
Hunter was one of five born on July 5th in our yard. His mother is a community cat that we look after (although I'm pretty sure she adopted herself). We took the litter in and have been looking after Mom and the babies ever since. Unfortunately, we have too many animals, and can't keep him permanently. He is a sweet, playful boy. We started calling him Hunter after we noticed how enthusiastically he plays with the toy mice we got for them. He is extremely affectionate. He recently discovered his powerful purr and the joys of rubbing his cheeks on things. He is very comfortable around our 60lb dog and has been seen playing with our older cats. Hunter is very sweet and will make a great addition to any home. He is intact, unvaccinated (he just came of age and we haven't been able to take him in), and litter trained. Medical note: A case of tapeworms hit the litter. Two of them caught it pretty badly and were actively treated, but he was not affected, and treatment was unneeded.

Story
She is about three years old. Super cuddly and sweet as well as playful and spunky. One of her favorite games to play is fetch (with a ball! like a dog). She is great with children and sociable in general towards humans and other cats! She loves to be snuggled and hang out a lot. She is good with other cats and fairly playful. We have always really loved her and cherished her but sadly after having to move she does not have adequate space and we feel we need to rehome her. She really flourished when our living situation was different. ***She cannot live with dogs: she is very terrified of them.

Story
Found her on the street. Have had her for several years now but my schedule and allergies make this a difficult relationship to maintain. She has been to the vet more than the average cat. If the past is an indicator of the future, you should have pet insurance for this one.

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.
