Story
A RESILIENT QUEEN WITH A HEART OF GOLD EARLY LIFE DAISY, a much-loved cat, began her journey in the strawberry fields, rescued during a challenging but significant period of her life. Pregnant at the time, DAISY gave birth to a litter of 4 identical kittens on April 23, 2024, (they were adopted already). As a mother was nothing short of excellent. PERSONALITY AND BEHAVIOR DAISY is known for her friendly and caring nature, particularly with humans. She loves to be petted and enjoys spending her evenings in the rooms of her fellow humans. Despite her charming demeanor, DAISY has a strong preference for being the only feline in the house, as she does not like to share her humans with other cats. HEALTH & CARE Their dietary includes dry foods like IAMS Indoor Cat formula, wet Friskies Gravy & Temptations Treats. SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS DAISY's future home should be one that appreciates her individuality, her love of humans, and her need for exclusivity as the home's most beloved pet.

Story
Mocha is a loving, cuddly cat, about 4-5 years old. We got him from a small sanctuary back before Covid, he was a scrawny little thing with a limp and parasites, but we nursed him back to health. He is a big boy, but is a real sweetheart. He is great with kids, and though he likes to be around other pets he tends to "mark his territory" when he meets other animals. He loves to lounge by the windows and cuddle next to us on the couch. He will pout if he does not get enough attention (or there is no food in his bowl) He just had surgery for tumor removal, he has a condition called feline progressive histiocytosis. He has not had any since but may be something to consider for the future Recently neighbors have been feeding local outside cats, and they seem to want to only hang around our yard, which has caused Mocha to mark his territory all over the carpet, which wasn't an issue before. We want him to be able to live comfortably, which he sadly cannot with us anymore.

Story
She was rescued off the streets many years ago from an old boss in NY. She is about 8-9 years old if I had to guess. Once she warms up to you she is super loving. I just ask that who ever takes her can show her the proper love she deserves. She is very active and loves to play with ball toys or lasers

Story
Lexi's prior owner's health deteriorated and she's unable to care for Lexi anymore. She had her for 11 years. Lexi just turned 13 in May 2025 but she doesn't look or act like she's 13 and she's in great health. We have been fostering Lexi since her special human went into long term care. Lexi is used to being an only pet and does not get along with our other 3 cats. We want to find a good loving home for Lexi, as an only pet. She loves to be petted, will lay next to you or on your lap, enjoys her toys, adores anything with catnip in it, loves to look out windows, and if you have a lanai she will adore laying in the sunshine and relaxing. She enjoys conversations and will meow her part of the conversation. She can take her toys, blanket, food and water dishes, bag of food, and some of her favorite treats with her to her new home. She would make an excellent companion for someone that wants a beautiful senior indoor cat to keep them company.

Story
Rex and Louie are a bonded pair. They're twin brothers that we adopted from cat crusaders. The boys are 7 years old, friendly, loves people, loves dogs & all they want is attention & love. They are indoor only boys. They don't go outside. Louie is the shy one & tends to hide when company comes. He follows his brothers lead. Rex is the social one who comes out to greet company. Both are lovers, smart, attention seeking handsome boys that pester you for attention. Louie will be in your lap. Rex is more up & down. He's nosey & lays with you, but has to get up to see what's going on. Rex is the helper! He will be involved in everything you do. If he had thumbs, we'd be in trouble! They rely on each other. They have each other's back. When something happens & one cries, the other one comes running. They are wonderful boys. Our home is being foreclosed upon & we have to move into a rental. We have 2 dogs & two elderly cats, so we need to find the twins a wonderful, loving home.

Story
Orion is a 2-year old creamsicle tabby that we adopted over a year ago. He craves love and attention from people, especially HIS person. He's sweet, goofy and playful, and will be a fantastic companion in a house with no other kitties to compete with. He can get sassy if he feels bothered and struggles during grooming, but is otherwise very good as long as he's getting enough exercise. He may do "bad" things if he feels ignored, like pushing things off countertops or clawing/chewing furniture. He has not been introduced to kids or dogs. Orion's favorite things are treats, climbing & exploring, diving through tunnels, chasing string, watching birds outside, and laying in the sun. We love Orion! The reason we're rehoming him is strictly because of unresolvable issues with territorial aggression towards our other cat. He is neutered, has a clean bill of health, and has all of his claws. We would hate for him to be declawed, so, if you think he's for you, please don't hurt him like that.
