Story
This is Luna! She is a super sweet and loving kitty we inherited from a friend. However, with our busy schedules we just do not have the time to give her all the loving she deserves. She is 3 years old and I have all of her shot records still. She is friendly with other dogs, but shouldn’t be in a home with super hyper ones. She would do better with calmer or older dogs. We do not have any other cats, so I’m not sure how she would do with them. She is very chill, so I’d imagine with some slow introducing they’d be the best of friends. She is extremely loving. She’s always wanting pets or loving. She loves her cat tree and sunbathing in the window.

Story
Moxie is a sweet boy who we found outsideif out house as a kitten. He was scared and afraid of people. We worked with him until he came out of his shell. He's still very timid and doesn't like to be held. He does have an allergy in the spring and will scratch his neck silly. So long as you keep up with his flea medication he is fine. I have a lot of pets and feel he would be better in a quiet home. He likes to hang out with the Siamese cat pictured and I would love to see them stay together but it's not mandatory. Please contact with any questions.

I need to find my cat a new home, ideally with multiple people in the household so she can receive the attention she needs. I have allergies and between that and her high strung nature, I cannot be a home for her any longer. She is declawed (this was done last year because of how destructive she was with claws).

Story
I found Daphne outside when I was brooding ducklings. I didn’t want a cat getting any ideas about an easy-access snack, so I brought her inside & realized she was pregnant. She spent a few days isolated from my other animals, but eventually I was able to set up an indoor nesting area for her. I did take her to the vet once, she does not have worms or feline leukemia. They did an xray to check on the kittens, but didn’t mention anything abnormal about her anatomy when they saw it. She has not been spayed yet & had her kittens going on 9 weeks ago. She is an absolutely lovely cat, she loves to be paid attention to & pet, she doesn’t fuss when held, she lets me clip her nails & get her eye boogies off easily. She hasn’t once gone to the bathroom other than in a litter box & gets along without any issues with other cats. The only caveat is she does NOT LIKE DOGS. She got better at tolerating their existence, but when they get near her she hisses, growls, & sometimes throws claws.

Got this cat from my mother in law who can't care for him. my husband is highly allergic and we have a dog that bubbles doesn't like. He's been in a room by himself. Will be going to shelter end of January if I can't find a home. Would break my heart because he is so so so loving!!! He loves to be petted nonstop lol

Story
I am just a baby and very timid. I am looking for someone patient who will love me, keep me safe, and enjoy my companionship. *** To apply to adopt one of our animals, please go to our website, http://www.cjpaws.org and visit the Adoptions page. *** Pets can be viewed by appointment only and an approved application is required to make an appointment to meet one of our animals. It can take up to 24 hours to respond to your application and an additional 1-2 business days to have your application approved. Not all applications will be approved. Applications that are incomplete will not be approved. Please include all veterinary information, as we will be contacting your veterinarian. If you have never had a pet before and thus do not have an established vet either in the area or in an area you previously lived in, we recommend adopting from your local Animal Services. Our adoption fee covers spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, deworming, monthly flea medication while in our rescue, any medications while in our rescue, an FIV/FeLV test, and the unconditional love of your new family member. Our rescue does not continue to pay for flea medication, vaccinations, deworming, or any other medications after the animal is adopted. All costs and fees accrued after adoption are the responsibility of the new family.
