Story
Hello! My name is Leroy. I had a little bad luck and lost my home recently, but it's not a reflection on me! I'm currently in a foster home because I prefer a quiet space and don't love stressful environments, but who does! I love laps and quiet time with my person. If you are looking for a charming, mellow, older cat, and your idea of relaxation is reading a book or watching a movie with a purring cat on your lap, I just might be just what you are looking for. My foster mom thinks I'm pretty close to perfect and whoever adopts me will be the luckiest person ever! I look forward to meeting my forever person and maybe that is you!

Story
Lucia is a super sweet and talkative girl! She loves to catch your attention with her super cute meows and will let you know that she wants to be pet! While she is adorably demanding she is also so much fun! Lucia loves to zoom around chasing spring toys and jump for the wand. Lucia does well with the kittens on the floor and you’ll always catch her taking a nap with one of the older kittens on the cat tree in front. She does well with people of all ages and would love to have a kitty friend at home!
