Story
Jax (full name Car Jack) was found at a car mechanic shop at 3 months old living in a stack of spare tires with his brothers and sisters. Unlike his siblings he was very weak and didn't run when approached. He was scooped up to get veterinary care and is now a healthy, happy, playful boy ready for his forever home.A year old, Jax is energetic and a total Ham. Will perform parkour off surfaces. Will roll over to show his belly when called out on mischief.Highly food motivated. Silly. LOVES to play and has so much energy.He doesn't like to cuddle often, but is extremely gentle when asking for freedom with little meows and licks while he squirms. Jax would thrive in a place with space for him to dart around with his zoomies, preferably with kids or adults or a fellow cat who enjoy playing to keep up with his energy. A loving, energetic home would be great for him.He comes with his water fountain, cat tree, and favorite toys if wanted by new family.

Story
Meet Willow! 🐾 Willow is a affectionate, loving, and snuggly 4-month-old kitten, born on April 27, 2026. I began fostering Willow after my sister was no longer able to care for her, and I’m now looking for a loving forever home for her and her brother, Shadow. Willow and Shadow are a bonded pair and **must be adopted together**. Willow is a loving, playful little girl who enjoys cuddles, attention, and spending time with her brother. She has a sweet personality and would make a wonderful addition to the right family. I’m hoping to find them a safe, caring home where they can stay together and continue to grow up happy, healthy, and loved. ❤️

Story
Kobe is a 10-month to 1-year-old American Shorthair who showed up at my back door 3 weeks ago. He adjusted quickly to living inside and absolutely loves it. He is such a sweet boy who loves to be held and snuggled, and he was the calmest cat my vet has ever seen! I really wish I could keep him, but I am looking for a wonderful forever home for him.Kobe is:• Playful, energetic, and very social with people• Neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped• Litter box trained (uses it perfectly!)• Calm and comfortable during vet examinations• A fan of automatic toys that keep him occupied for hoursKobe is high-energy and loves to stay active. He never hisses or acts aggressive, though he is still learning boundaries and sometimes tries to play-bite hands gently during play. He is very social and will immediately sit on a guest's lap for snuggles.💰 Rehoming fee: $85

Story
I love Meow Meow. I had him since he was 8 weeks old from the SPCA for the last 15 years. He has only been indoors. He loved people and likes to cuddle NEXT to you (on his own terms of course), and likes to rub on you. I recently had my first child. We live in a small apartment and we have no family help and feel overwhelmed.I feel horrible I have not been able to pay as much attention to him as I use to and I can tell he is sad.He does have hyperthyroidism and requires a pill twice a day.I am willing to pay for lifetime supply of the medicine and his special diet food and bet bills
