Story
Ella is very friendly with humans and will bond with anyone who feeds her. She is stressed by the presence of other cats and would prefer to be an only cat. She wants a stable home with no other cats and with people who will love her but give her space when she wants it. She is very clear about boundaries and will communicate what she wants. She is very easy to read and is an easy cat to take care of. She was a neuter release cat who one day decided she wanted to live indoors with people and not be an outdoor cat. She thinks she is a princess and is very persistent when she wants something.

Story
This is actually a bonded pair. So the two cats in the first photo are who need rehomed. Milk is the black cat, Prince is the white cat. We fostered these cats for a friend so that they could remain in a family setting instead of a shelter one. I would love to be able to keep these cats, but I already have 2 and 4 cats is just too many for my household. Prince is around 5years old and milk is around 2 or 3. Previous owner told us they were all up-to-date on shots, but I don’t have any paperwork for them. They came from the shelter, so they have microchips. They love a lot of attention and want to be the center of your world. Both lap cats, amazing with children and babies crawling all over them. They have a very high tolerance for being disturbed by children, they’ve never hurt my babies (under2yrs) even when provoked. They get along well with other cats. They come with a pet safe automatic litter box plus food and water dishes, and crate.

Story
Zoomie is a very sweet and playful kitty. She deserves to be in a home with lots of attention. She is great with her litter box and doesn’t scratch up our furniture. She is currently an indoor mostly cat although she does like to go outside. She doesn’t venture too far. She hasn’t been around many other pets so I can’t say how she would be. Hoping to find someone who will give her a happy life and lots of love.

Story
Meet Toby! I am relocating, and unfortunately my new landlord does not allow pets, so looking for a wonderful home for my sweet boy. Toby is a gentle, affectionate cat who loves being near his people. He is curious about everything; whether it is exploring new corners of the house, watching birds from the window, or following you around to see what you are up to. He has a calm temperament, adapts well once he feels safe, and enjoys a cozy spot to nap in the sun. He is playful without being overly energetic, enjoys interactive toys, and appreciates a good scratch behind the ears. He likes to talk to you. He is also tidy, litter-box trained, and well-mannered. He gets along well with other cats and warms up quickly to new people. If you're looking for a loyal, sweet companion who brings warmth and personality into your home, Toby would be a perfect fit. I just want him to go to a caring home where he will be loved as much as he is now.

Story
Hi, I’m Mirah. I’m a 5 year old torbie lady with little white paws and a gentle heart that’s been waiting for someone to notice me. I’m on a health journey right now, working on my weight so I can feel my best, and I’m doing it with quiet determination. I was surrendered, but I still believe someone out there wants a calm, affectionate companion like me. I love soft playtime, slow blinks, and warm moments close to the person I trust. Once I feel safe, I lean in fully — all purrs, sweetness, and steady love. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving friend, I’m ready… and I hope you’ll choose me.

We are downsizing to a smaller house where pets are not allowed and are looking for good homes for these two adorable sisters. They have all their shots and must be adopted together. They are super sweet and social. Love to play or just snuggle on your lap.
