Story
Our girl Dhoop was adopted during the pandemic times. She came from The Wheel of Ferals adoption room of the sarno road shelter. She's not aggressive or chaotic, and she gets along with cats, but lately the others have been antagonizing her. She has good manners and isn't a nuisance. She would be happiest in a household with less noise and cats. We have 4 other cats and a toddler, not ideal for her.

Story
Hello, Rosy is 6 years old beautiful female cat, she loves her humans, very sweet and playful, she never been out. She’s very scared of outside she doesn’t even want to go in the backyard. She is scared of change, and sometimes territorial with other cats. She was my sister‘s cat and my sister had to move so I kept her for 1 years, but she still didn’t get along with my other cat,I’m not really good at training so maybe someone else isexperienced. Plus my kids have severe allergies. Since she doesn’t go out at all, it’s really affecting their health. my other cat is basically an outside cat He comes only to eat and to cuddle) But Rosie, she’s constantly inside the house. she likes to play and likes attention and love., I feel sad to give her away i took me a long time thinking about relocating her, but I think it’s time. It’s the best thing to do! I hope she can find a lovely home where she can get love and attention. Please if you need any other informations , contact me, thank you

Story
Jack and his sister Jill (https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/43641159-palm-bay-florida-cat) is a 10 year old Tuxedo cat, I they are a pair and would like to keep them together. I inherited them after my mom passed away, unfortunately I am unable to afford caring for them. Additionally I am planning a move across the country and downsizing my apartment soon and will be unable to take them with me. I would like for him and his sister to be kept together. He is very loving and cuddly once he warms up to you. Will instantly purr and expose his chin for scratches and a very talkative cat. Just very relaxed and laid back.
