Story
This new friend has just arrived! They have come to us either as a transfer from another shelter, being found as a stray, or have been surrendered to us by their owner. When our friends are new to us, we are typically unsure of their full background, litter box habits, comfort with handling, or experience with other pets or children. Our staff will spend some time reviewing any information provided by previous owners and spend some time with our new friend so that we can better update their biography. If you are interested in adopting this cat, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific cat but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! We may require all household members, including children, to come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story
Tiger is a loving, affectionate 2-year-old cat from a rescued moms surprise litter. She is very social with people, loves to cuddle once she feels safe, and enjoys playing and being near her person. She loves cuddling on the bed or couch& is litter trained. She is INDOOR ONLY and would not be safe outside, so please do not apply if you want an outdoor cat. She loves wet food, eats dry food daily, is used to kids and normal household noise, and enjoys being held when treated gently. We are rehoming only because there are too many cats in one home, and they all deserve peace, space, and individual attention. It’s stressful for them at their age to share one space. Please only reach out if you are ready for a true forever commitment. We want her placed once, safely, and with love. **note: She is not yet spayed and will need a vet check and routine care in her new home. Please be sure you can afford that Thank you so much! Looking forward to speaking with you soon:)

Story
Gravy is a beautiful 2-year-old indoor-only girl with a loving, vocal personality and a wonderful temperament. She enjoys her independence at times and may hide away for quiet moments, but if you call her for cuddles, pets, or dinner, she’ll come running fast. She truly loves affection, playtime, and sleeping in bed with her person. Gravy is playful and affectionate, and while she can be a little rough during play fighting with her sisters, it’s only because she’s a very solid girl with lots of playful energy. She has a stunning, unique coat color and a presence that’s impossible not to love. She would do best in a home with two additional cats or fewer so she doesn’t feel overwhelmed. Gravy is not spayed yet and will need to be spayed and get a general vet checkup ASAP. Please be sure you can do this & are looking for a forever cat. If you’re looking for a loving, playful, cuddly companion with personality and beauty, Gravy is an amazing choice and will love you lots:) 🐾💛

Story
Tiggy is a beautiful, gentle 2-year-old cat from a rescued mom’s surprise litter. She is the most shy and reserved of her sisters, but she is still affectionate, sweet, and enjoys cuddles and being held for short periods before she politely hops down. She is INDOOR ONLY and would not be safe outside. Tiggy is very gentle & okay with children but may avoid them if they’re aggressive. She can get startled & prefers a calm, quiet environment. Because of her sensitive nature, she would do best as a solo cat or with one very chill companion. She loves wet food, eats dry food daily, is used to normal household noise, and is a peaceful, gentle presence. We are rehoming only because there are too many cats in one home, and they all deserve peace, space, and individual attention. Please only reach out if you are ready for a true forever commitment. **note: She is not yet spayed and will need a vet check and routine care in her new home. Thanks so much! Hope to hear from you soon :)
