Story
Addie is 6 years old, we adopted her as a kitten. She is a loving cat and is skittish with new people and situations. She needs someone patient who will allow her time to warm up. Once she does, she’s very cuddly and sweet. Addie would do well in a home without other pets, but she does well with children. Her new home would need to provide feather fliers (her favorite) and some hiding spots that she can retreat to when she needs a break. She loves soft blankets and cuddling up with her favorite people.

Story
Zonker is a loving and intelligent lap cat who would thrive in a single cat home. He craves human affection and loves being the center of attention. Zonker is energetic and loves playing with all variety of toys! He loves getting pets and head scratches, but just gets a bit touchy if you pet his belly. He currently has 2 cat siblings. He has not been able to receive as much of the human attention he definitely craves since we had a baby and he sometimes plays roughly with one of the cats. We believe Zonker would be much happier and in a better situation if he found a home where he could be the sole cat and receive all of the humans loving.

OJ is such a sweetheart and loves to lay right by your feet to protect you at nights. He is very food motivated and will wake you up for food! This orange lover will purr constantly when petting him.

Details
Good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Wednesday is an affectionate cat that loves sleeping under the covers and sitting with her person in the evening. She would do best with an owner who can be home and keep her company during the day. She has some support needs: she has food allergies that cause her to pick at her skin, and while she is house-trained, she will pee on fabric left on the floor if stressed. She's also vocal, and will complain if she isn't able to be in the same room as all the people if you're congregated, i.e. while eating, having guests over, etc. While she has been an indoor/outdoor cat in the past, for the last several years she has been only indoors, and therefore has not had her most recent feline leukemia shot.
