Story
Gelato is a super sweet, senior orange tabby that is between 7 and 8 years old. She may be a bit older and missing a few teeth, but that doesn’t stop her from being the friendliest cat you’ll ever meet! She’s a gentle soul who is young at heart and loves cuddles and affection. She has a big heart and an even bigger love for people. Gelato enjoys lounging in cozy spots and is content with having her head scratched and back stroked. She gets along well with humans and has a calm, easygoing personality that makes her the perfect companion. Although she requires some extra care, her warmth and loving nature make her a joy to be around. She would more than likely share space with a submissive male cat, she would do best in a pet-free home where she can bask in all of her adopter's affections. Being a senior kitty, the ideal home would be a quiet one with a retired person/couple or someone who works from home to keep her company. If you’re looking for a laid-back, loving kitty to brighten your days, Gelato could be the perfect fit. She’s ready to bring love and joy to her forever home!

Meet Murphy - Your Future Chill Companion! Murphy is a gentle, calm, and laid-back 4-year-old grey tabby looking for a patient and loving forever home.

Murphy is the perfect companion for someone looking for a quiet, low-maintenance cat. He may not be the first to jump into the spotlight, but with time and patience, you'll discover just how loving and loyal he can be. Murphy is not a lap cat but will show affection once he is comfortable with you and his surroundings. If you're looking for a chill, affectionate kitty who enjoys lounging and taking in the sights from a cozy spot, Murphy might just be the perfect addition to your home!

Story
Meet Lewis, a handsome 2-year-old grey and white tabby cat looking for a quiet and loving forever home. He is a bit shy at first, but once he feels comfortable, he’s the sweetest companion you could ask for. His soft grey fur and white accents make him an irresistibly handsome kitty, and his gentle personality is sure to win you over. Lewis may take a little time to warm up, so he’s best suited for a calm household where he can relax at his own pace, preferably with no dogs or small children. He enjoys lounging in cozy spots and watching the birds and squirrels go by from his favorite perch. Though he’s not one to seek out attention right away, Lewis appreciates a gentle approach and will reward your patience with soft purrs and quiet companionship. Interested in meeting Lewis? Contact us today to learn more about this sweet boy and how you can give him the home he deserves!

Story
Pipsqueak is an inbred cat rescued from a cat colony, peculiarly small, hence the name and in need of medical care. I need to give her up because of that reason. I do not have the funds to care for her. She has some form of allergies that I'm not sure of and other possible medical issues. I love her with my whole heart and forth at I know I just do the selfless thing and give her up. I am also moving soon so it has to be ASAP. Please if anyone can take care of her medical issues, reach out to me.
