Story
We all have our favorite chair, view, or spot in the house. Mine is up high on the biggest bed I can find. Once I find my favorite person, I'll make your home my own. You'll enjoy having me jump down, rub gently against your leg, and wait patiently for pets. I can be independent and take care of myself, but I would prefer to share my life with you. I am FIV+ but get a long great with all the cats in the shelter!

Story
Lilac's a petite gray cat with a small white spot on her neck and a faintly stripey tail. She enjoys lounging in a sunny spot inside, venturing outside to lounge in fresh air, playing with wand toys, and pouncing on laser light. She will chew on plastic bags if they are left out, should not eat cat foods with beef as they make her throw up, and will meow loudly for breakfast early in the morning. She is affectionate and enjoys getting being petted on the face.

Story
You can’t help but adore this affectionate stray. Shy at first, she now confidently walks into the house, insists upon being pet, and has fun with clicker training. She travels with her own condo made from an insulated cooler, including entry tunnel, 3D printed rain awning, swinging PetsSafe door as a predator escape hatch, and straw base for warmth and comfort. Based on her tipped ear, she was spayed, vaccinated and released before landing on our doorstep. Right now, she prefers being outdoors, probably because that’s what she knows. When she first decided to venture inside, she would slink around and get agitated if we closed the door. We're now at a point where we can close the door while playing with her. We suspect she would adapt to an indoor-only environment. I am happy to answer questions, share additional photos and videos, and deliver to a good home!

Story
Queenie has such a soft, gentle expression that brings peace to the soul. This sweet lady has gone through some hardship in her short time here; she was diagnosed with stomatitis and had to have many of her teeth removed. Despite this, she has bounced back well. Queenie is very shy on the floor, but her past fosters can attest to her really opening up and being a super cuddly girl when she's finally got her own place. If you are looking for one of the sweetest kitties we've ever had, apply online today and come meet our little queen at MCT Eastridge!
