Story
Meet the cat named Kitty! Our sweet girl is 6 years old and around 10 lbs. We are sad to need to find her a new home but we just found out that our son is allergic, otherwise we wouldnt be rehoming her. We really want to find a home where she is loved and spoiled. Kitty is easy going, loves being brushed, although, she is a bit of a princess and has her own water fountain. Her favorite spots to hang out are in the window looking out into the back yard, on our laps when we are snuggled in a fuzzy blanket and in her cat hammock in her huge cat cage. Kitty likes to explore and hide under beds or in baskets. She is comically vocal and if you tell her to, Get it, when she sees a fly or a random scrap of string. Kitty has been around for all the baby and toddler stages with my 4 year old daughter and did well with her most of the time. She has been an indoor cat her whole life. Please consider our girl if your home is looking for a quiet companion.

Story
She is an affectionate feline that spends time on the bed in the sun. She loves attention and is easy-going. She has been around other cats and two Labrador dogs. She uses an enclosed kitty litter box, she eats Authority dry food, and also enjoys frisky wet canned food. She is free-fed; I would love to keep her, but I moved in with an HOA with an animal limit.

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.

Please read entire story before responding!!!! Adopted him from an individual in Colorado, he is 4 years old. He is a sweetheart but doesn’t like a ton of affection, he’s very independent. He does like lots of treats though. He is bonded with baby kitty, they HAVE TO STAY TOGETHER .
