Story
I found him outside around Halloween, I’m not to sure about his age but he is an older kitten. He is quite playful and loving, always purring and wanting affection. Im looking for a home that can give him the attention he craves and can properly stimulate him with play! He follows people around, is talkative, loves food, loves to be picked up. So playful

Story
Theia is a very sweet affectionate cat. She has been vaccinated, but is dur for boosters in November. I am helping my daughter re-home Theia because daughter's new apartment does not accept pets, and being caught with one is grounds for eviction. I cannot keep her long term because both I and my other daughter are allergic to her and OTC medicatuon does not provide sufficient relief from respiratory symptoms and hives.

Story
Lea's story. She was born a street kitten for majority of her life. I got introduced to her when she would come to my door throughout the day and I would feed her. We became close friends quickly. At first I thought she was a boy. But after a couple of months she surprised me by becoming pregnant. So I took her in and throughout the time she had her litter. We took care of the kittens for a bit and then we found them new homes and decided to keep Lea since she was an excellent house cat. Facts about Lea - she’s fixed - aprox 2.5 yrs old (yup teen mom) - adorable - sweet - does well with humans idk about kids. - doesn’t do well with dogs. Not too sure with cats.

Story
A month ago I saw a lady throwing him out near a dumpster. I intervened because I love cats and wouldnt want one to be abandoned by their owner. So she let me have him. I have 4 other cats, so I introduced him and it sadly didn't work out. Hes very playful but way younger than my other cats- so my other cats aren’t playful . So his playfulness would be met with aggression. From his background he doesnt work well with other kids. He might work well with other cats but only his age. Hes very sweet boy, who gets easily attached, he loves being around you. He is very playful but not too playful to where he is annoying. I would love to find max a loving home where he can stay forever. Thanks. I think its important to mention he needs work done on his teeth, and his shots need to be up to date. Thank you.

Story
Meet Winnie; a sweet and spirited 5-year-old cat who is as affectionate as she is sassy. She loves attention, cuddles, and being close to her people, but she also has a playful, independent side that keeps things entertaining. Winnie enjoys spending time outside during the day if it's nice out (supervised or in a safe outdoor area) and lounging inside in the evenings. She's spayed, healthy, and litter trained. Thank you for helping me find the perfect home for Winnie. ** Winnie's brother, Pete, is also listed here and would be nice if they stayed together but is not necessary.
