Story
Ginny is the sweetest most perfect cat you will ever meet, we took her in when her human sadly passed from covid. Ginny deserves someone that can give her all the attention and pets she needs, preferably that she be the only cat in the house, she gets allong with other cats but sadly she ends up being bullied or taken advantage of. She loves soft blankets, comes for cuddles, doesn't scratch where she is not supposed to and she is very soft. I love her but I think she deserves someone better than us, that can spoil her and be her only focus, my husband has 2 other cats and i have a dog wich chases her and she just stress about. She is a very independent girl wich I identify with, she has never ever go to the bathroom in the wrong place and if there is something wrong with it she will let you know.

Story
Hi, Grayson is our male cat. He is fixed and has up to date vaccinations. He is 4years old. He is very good around other cats or our giant Golden Retriever. We are trying to find a good, safe and loved home for Grayson because my son’s allergy with cats is getting worse 😭 Also my 70yrs old Mom in law just moved back from Taiwan and she is scared of animals! Please let me know if you’re interested in taking Grayson or if you know of anyone who loves cats and want him to be their friends Thanks

Shes a little over a year old. Very affectionate and loving but doesn’t like to cuddle. Shes pretty chill and can be playful at times. She enjoys the company of other cats and plays with our dogs. She gets bored if shes by herself so she needs a lot of attention.

Say "hi" to our BEAUTIFUL tabby cross~ Fiona! Fiona is a house cat who came to us after her elder owners had to move into care. She loves to eat and sit out in the sun. She will accept your attention but is not needy. She is VERY social and loving with other cats and is happiest with kitty friends. Fiona is shy at first, but once confident she's safe, she doesn't hide. She is super sweet, and great with people and other cats. She will make the perfect companion!She is spayed, has all her vaccinations, and is treated for ticks/fleas! All she needs is you!

Story
Silko is a sweet guy! He is more reserved than the others but in time, with patience and love, he will come out of his shell and hang out with you! Once he gets to know his human friends - he remembers them and will always say hi and reach out to them. He may need some quiet support to get comfortable initially to transition - but the work will be worth it!
