American Shorthair

BOULDER, CO

Details
Not good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Charlie is a curious, cuddly, cute cat and is up to date with vaccinations and no known health issues. The reason he is looking for a new home is because his current owners can no longer accommodate his needs after moving into a small apartment. In previous house, he was able to hunt mice outside & was able to cry at night without disturbing neighbors. Charlie has been known to get into fights with humans & animals. Ideally his next home he could roam outside to hunt such as barn or homestead, have accommodations for when he cries, and have experience with occasionally difficult behavior issues. He can get overstimulated by too much touching and takes his time to get to know people, but after he does, he will initiate cuddles & affection. He's very food motivated and takes meds in food no problem. He travels in a car well. TLDR: Behavior issues: crying at night, getting into fights outside Needs: outdoor hunting, more stimulation, cuddles, food, patience No children

Story
Micky came into my life November of last year. He was 3 months old, bright, bubbly, and the most affectionate and sweet boy. However, Micky has gradually gotten worse and worse liver and GI problems following an e coli infection June of this year. He was vomiting daily for the months of August, September and October, but following a food change he no longer vomits. He weighs 3-4lbs down from 6lb, needs daily medications, and would need a feeding tube and attentive care, but between an extremely busy job it being unreasonable for me to pursue further treatment, it is infeasible for me to keep him for the foreseeable future as of now. I only just graduated college and moved out to Boulder. This is why I am looking to rehome him. He is an extremely strong, clever, and good boy--he loves going outside, he's extremely handleable and never bites. Loves to find innovative parkour routes. At a year and a half old, I don't think he, or I am quite ready to say goodbye.

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Rome is 3 years old. She is curious, smart, fearless, playful and loves laps to nap in. She was originally my daughter's cat but she needs access to the outdoors. She was not happy being confined to an apartment. Once we took her in, she was much more relaxed and happy being able to go outside- she uses the dog door - since we took her in back in April 2025. She gets along great with our 2 dogs, even rubbing against them or sleeping with them. The reason we are having to rehome her is she is not getting along with one of our other cats. We do have another cat who she does not bother at all - basically ignores her. She will need access to the outdoors in her new home. She is very picky foodwise and will only eat 1 brand of wet food, and 1 brand of dry.

Story
Loki has been with me for a long time, I've had him since 2012. He does ok with dogs, buts it’s been a few years since he’s been around them and he does ok with cats. I have another cat that he lives with, but he does play rough and likes to chase her. He likes cuddling, he likes being with people and he used to do really well at the vet. My ex used to be very mean to him, so he flinches a bit and tends to run if you raise your voice. I kept him after the divorce, but I can’t keep up with the vet bills. He needs his shots and needs imaging for his stomach, since he vomits too often. I was happy to save him from my ex but I feel like I’m not giving him a good home because of his medical needs. The adoption fee is waive-able of course, I just don’t want him to end up in a bad home. He meows a lot, too, I know some people prefer quiet cats. He’s a little dog-like. He doesn’t like little kids much since he’s older now, but he used to love them.

Story
This is Luna, a cuddly loud fur ball. She loves to sleep, eat, and play with anything round all day. She is often a loner but loves to be cuddled on her own terms. She is a very sweet cat once she becomes used to your presents. She was adopted as an 8 week old kitten and is a spunky one your old that has all the energy in the world, when she's not napping. I am hoping she goes to a slow paced home with someone to give her a lot of cuddles and treats.
