Linus is a one-year-old short-haired handsome boy. Linus's life started out rough, being feral for the first two months of his life. Linus is at a foster home, not at our shelter. His foster says "Linus has adjusted well with human contact and other cats. He is extremely shy at times, but does like attention and accept pets on his terms. He loves food, treats and is very playful with the rest of the cat clan. Linus will do well as a solo pet or with other cats, but will need time to adjust to his new surroundings in any situation. Linus has not been introduced to dogs or children and not sure how he would react to either." Linus is vaccinated, microchipped, neutered and healthy. His adoption fee is $175.

This handsome boy is Domino. He is 2-years-old and weighs 9.2 lb. Domino is at a foster home, not at our shelter. His foster says "Life hasn't been easy for Domino. He came from a life on the streets where he and his colony eeked out a living until someone started poisoning them. Fortunately the wonderful group of ladies who had been feeding them called me and with the support of DAWS, I trapped all 7 including Domino. All but Dom and Magpie have found their forever homes. Domino came in terrified, hiding under the bed and panicked. But over the months he is learning to trust. Now he comes running when it's time to eat and sits nearby patiently waiting. He is sleeping on the couch now and stays put when I walk by. And last week...he let me touch him. Now Domino has actually started to play with the wand toy and takes food off a spoon I was holding. He's ready. Ready to take a chance. Ready to trust. Ready to find his match in this game of life. Can you be the Domino that finds his perfect partner?" Domino is vaccinated, microchipped, neutered and healthy. His adoption fee is $175. If you would like to meet/adopt Domino, please complete our online application at https://daws.org/daws-forms.

Cordelia and Long John Silver are a deeply bonded duo who truly thrive together and must be adopted as a pair. They are 6-months-old and in a foster home, not at our shelter. They are incredibly people-oriented and very accustomed to being handled — these are cats who want to be part of your daily life, not tucked away in the background. The kitties greet you at the door, follow you from room to room, and love being wherever their humans are. Cuddly, affectionate, and always present, they only retreat during the loud interruption of the vacuum — and even then, they reappear quickly once the coast is clear. They have experience living with a respectful, cat-savvy dog and do well with calm canine companions who understand boundaries. Because of a rough start early in life, Cordelia and Long John have dealt with some minor but ongoing health considerations, including feline herpes virus (FHV). This is extremely common in cats, and veterinarians vary in their recommendations regarding whether cats with FHV should live with other cats. We encourage adopters to consult their own veterinarian to determine what feels like the best fit for their household. As a result of their early illness, both cats have eyes that tend to tear regularly. While this requires a bit of routine care, it does not slow them down or dampen their spirits in the slightest. Despite these minor health needs, Cordelia and Long John are truly exceptional companions — loving, gentle, social, and endlessly devoted. If you’re looking for a pair of kitties who will make your house feel like a home, these two will fill it with warmth, comfort, and affection. They are a two for one adoption deal--only $175 to adopt the pair! They are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. If you would like to meet/adopt Cordelia and Long John Silver, please complete our online application at https://daws.org/daws-forms. Email foster@daws.org with questions. This sweet pair can't wait to meet you!
