Story
Henry and Rose (profile 46010200) are siblings; my late sister's cats. They're a bonded pair and I prefer they both go to the same home. They were found as kittens in late June 2021, prob. born about March. She didn't intend to keep them but never got around to finding them a new home. They're being cared while we get the house ready to sell, but I can't keep them. Vet guessed they were bottle raised, living in a cat carrier, and escaped during fireworks. They feel safest living in a cage with some kind of cave, and 1-2 hr daily supervised exercise sessions. They will play with anything, often running at full speed, and break things in the process. They will run across people during this time. Neither is a lap sitter. Both like hammocks. They don't get along with the other cat in the house. Both can be skittish and are prone to panic flight over any unexpected sound, even if they made it. Henry is curious and will cautiously check out new people if you reassure him (he love bites).

Story
Hello, I'm Rowan. I love quiet moments and soft whispers of affection. I'm a bit shy at first, but once I warm up, I'm all about cuddles and loyalty. I enjoy peaceful spots where I can watch the world go by and feel safe. I dream of a forever home where I can share my gentle love. Adopting me means gaining a faithful friend who will cherish every gentle pat and cozy lap. Let's make memories together in a home where I can truly bloom.

Story
My cat was adopted from pet smart in February of 2025. Unfortunately, I am moving unexpectedly and the place I am moving does not allow cats. He is the sweetest cats does well with people, cats, and dogs he is use to being around all of them frequently. He is also used to being by himself during the day because I work long hours. He loves to cuddle and is extremely loving. He was born in May of 2024 I believe. I truly just want him to go to a nice home where he will be loved. We have an enclosed litter box, toys, food, a little tree, food and water bowls.

Story
This is Dwight, a 6.5-year-old male cat adopted with his biological brother Kevin—they’re a bonded pair and must be adopted together (no separate homes). I got Dwight at 6 weeks old, and he’s truly been my baby. He can be shy at first but warms up to be cuddly and sweetest guy ever. My husband and I are adjusting to life with our first child, so the cats aren’t getting the attention and love they used to. They’d thrive in a slow-paced home with plenty of affection and no other pets. Dwight has had occasional blood-tinged urine for years from an unknown cause. He was on a special prescription diet with no improvement, so now he eats normal food and acts completely normal. A litter robot is included. Preference given to adopters who can send updates and possibly allow visits—this is a tough goodbye for our family.
