Story
Peanut is 11 years old. His birthday is October 6, 2014. But with his growing age, he’s become difficult to care for. He used to be feral, so one of his ears are clipped. In all honesty, he’s a bit of a scavenger. Most likely still hardwired from his past as a feral cat. He likes to jump on the counters to steal a snack. Or steal a snack to bring to you. In the past, he’s been very patient with grabby young children. And he’s iffy with other pets as long as they’re 100% okay with him. Once he loves you though, he’s very sweet and cuddly. Fair warning, he is very very talkative. He meows on average of twice every five minutes. And everyone who’s met him say he sounds like a smoker.

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
My name is Stella and I’m 3 years old. I’ve only lived with my mom and dog sister and brother. I sometimes try to groom my dog siblings and they get mad at me. If they were a kitten I’m sure they wouldn’t mind. Mom works full time and I get bored. She buys me toys but I get bored with them soon. I hope mom can find me a home with maybe no cats or a kitten that I can mother. Stella’s mom: I love Stella but I need to rehome her because we just moved here and they only allow two pets. Plus…Stella is a great cat and so beautiful but she’s not having much fun. I’m hoping someone will be able to take her and love her and be able to interact with her more than I can. If you’re looking for a healthy good cat please consider Stella. She’s only ever been around a kitten, never a grown cat so I’m unsure how she would do. She lives with small dogs and does fine but I don’t know how she would do with big dogs. Ok with my grandkids.

Story
Got cat in the streets a year ago last June. He's around a year and a half. I just want him to be taken care of. I moved for college six hours away and it's not fair for him to live at home being taken care of by family. He does tend to be angsty and has been since he was gotten. Has been neutered though. Is attention and food driven. He's feisty, adorable, fluffy. He needs someone that can give him more time.

Story
We have had Monkey for 2.5 years and brought her into a home that already had 2 established cats. After all this time she has been unable to get along and mesh with one of my older cats. One is ok but the other is not. She's docile and quiet but would do well in a home with either a male cat or an older dog. She's house trained but because of the older cat going after her and attacking her the stress is causing her to urinate in the house I think because she's so nervous . We really want her to have a nice loving home!

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.
