Story
Mali is a sweet, healthy 14 yr old cat who looks and acts much younger (even her vet was impressed!). She’s affectionate, loves cuddling on her own terms, and will seek you out throughout the day for snuggles. She enjoys sunny windows, warm vents, catnip toys, and fetching poof balls. Mali is shy with visitors at 1st but friendly once she’s comfortable. She’s tidy with her litter box, food motivated, and very snuggly.. She does best as the only cat, though she has lived with a cat and a dog before. Due to tension with our other cat and our upcoming travel, we feel Mali would thrive in a calmer home. We’re committed to helping her transition and are willing to cover pet rent for one year and six months of food. Medical notes: Mali had one eye removed due to cancer in 2023 and has been cancer-free since. She had some teeth removed in 2022 and eats wet food only (dry food causes vomiting). She may also throw up if she eats too fast or has hairballs. She was declawed by a previous owner.

Story
George (longhair) and Nigel (shorthair) are brothers. They are extremely snuggly and friendly cats. They love to play, both with each other and with people. They love strings, springs, laser, and any small toy they can "bap" around the floor. They purr when they are snuggled and will love someone who can sit with them on the couch or play with them. They are 5 years old and in good health. Nigel (the shorthair one) has a snaggletooth that makes it look like he is snarling at you, but in a very cute way. This was due to a tooth removal surgery that he underwent 3+ years ago, so no further medical action is needed. We are looking for a home where their new owner has the time to sit with them and play with them, perhaps a retired person or couple. Or even a family with young kids who want cats but don't want to spend the time and energy training them. Our biggest priority is making sure that these two go to a good home so we will wait as long as we need to make sure that happens

Story
Bear is 6 years old, I got her as a kitten. She has been my best friend and gotten me through many hard times. Unfortunately I am moving where I am unable to take her and I would like her to go to a loving home. Whoever adopts her would get her supplies and toys as well free of charge. This includes her litter box, litter, food and water dispenser, and cat tree if you would like. She was raised with ferrets. She has not had much interaction with cats/dogs. She’s nervous at first with new people but then very sweet. She is also very playful, snuggly, and affectionate. She’s adores cuddling with you under the blanket.

Story
We adopted Crush 3 years ago from Longmont Humane Society. He is about 3.5 years old. Crush is a friendly and sweet orange kitty. He has his quirks and needs a lot of attention. He loves to be pet, play with springs, and be carried around. He is such a sweet boy and is great with humans. He is a vocal little guy, especially when playing with his springs. Unfortunately, he can be rough on furniture. He does not do well with other cats.

Story
My wife and I adopted Podrick and Moqueca together, as they were baby brothers from the same litter! We ran into them by chance at the pet store and fell in love. We now have a baby (human hahaha) and she appears to be mildly allergic to them. We’ve tried to make it work but have come to realize rehoming these kitties makes the most sense. We’ll donate our Litter Robot 4 automatic litter box, as well as their automatic water and food dispenser. Also, there cat tree! Huge value and two amazing cuddly cats, great with kids and strangers. Shy with dogs but never aggressive. Podrick loves sniffing and getting to know stranger’s dogs.
