Story
Toby here is about 6 years old now. He's been a part of my life throughout all of his, yet now we are in need of finding a new home for our little (actually quite big) buddy. Toby has spent a majority of his life as an indoor-outdoor cat, yet as he has gotten older, although he is still very nimble and quick, this will not be a requirement for his new owner. Not all places are suitable for an outdoor cat. What he is looking for is a loving provider who can allow Toby to have his own space as he prefers to keep to himself, and, like most cats, chooses specific times of when to show affection. If this boy seems like a good fit for your home, there's no harm in adding him to your possible adoptees.

Story
Georgiana AKA Gigi is such a sweet cat, however she doesn't get along with our other two cats. We have tried everything we could, but I feel at this point she's better off in a home with no other dogs/cats. She's friendly and cuddly, but shy at first, a total sweetheart and love bug. Please apply to adopt little miss Gigi 🩷

MEET FANCY! Fancy is a 2yr old female tabby. She was rescued from a rural shelter VERY pregnant and gave birth to 5 babies just 3 days after she was rescued. She was waiting to have her little nuggets until she was safely in a home. Fancy is a VERY sweet affectionate cat. She shows her gratitude to her foster mom on a daily basis. Now that she is done feeding her babies it is her turn to find a forever home. Her foster mom describes her as VERY affectionate and sweet. She loves the attention of her family and comes out willingly for unlimited pets and then finds herself sleeping close by. Fancy is up to date with all her vaccines, she is FIV/FELV negative, and kitty litter trained.

MEET FREDDY & FLINT! Freddy & Flint mother was pregnant with these cuties and their 3 other siblings when she was rescued from a rural shelter located in NC just in the nick of time. They were born just 3 days after entering our rescue on April 4th. Freddy and Flint are your typical kittens and enjoy playing and romping with each other all day long but then will find a nap when they need to revamp so they can start a new with their playtime. These guys were born in our rescue and have been handled since they entered this earth so they are very very social and loving with people. Freddy & Flint are both FELV/FIV negative, are up to date with all their vaccines for their age group, and are little box trained. If you are interested in adopting these cuties please go to our website and complete our adoption application www.fabsrescue.com/applications

Story
Alejandro was a rescue kitten. He is about three years old. He is mild manner and grew up with a large dog and older kids. I have never seen him hiss at anyone nor has he ever swiped at or been physically aggressive with anybody. He has his claws but uses scratching posts. He can be overly vocal at times (for example, when he wants to be feed in the morning) but otherwise he is an loving and playful guy. When I first got Alejandro, I lived in a large house and he was an indoor/outdoor cat. However, now that I live alone in a studio apartment and his is a strict indoor cat, I've had a lot of problems with allergies. I am also much busier these days and am not able away to give him the attention he needs. I think he would be happier and have a better quality of life living with a family.
