Story
Hi my name is Cougar I was left homeless by some thoughtless humans last October. Mother Mary has been my temporary savior since that time. She has fed me twice a day, done my shots, my flea medication, my worm medications, my leukemia vaccination (second and last shot is due 4/18/24), and also neutering (which I wasn’t too happy about). I would really like to be inside, but Mother Mary has a baby kitten and we do not seem to get along, through the glass door. I am a very cute slate grey cat with beautiful green eyes that are full of love and loneliness. I am just waiting not so patiently for some kind person to rescue me from a potential life of crime. I discuss my meals with Mother Mary and I let her pet me. I do try to get into her house but so far I have been unsuccessful. Please save me, as you know, traffic here is murder.

Story
Zuri was found as a stray who was not using her back legs. X-rays were performed but found no abnormalities. She has paresis in her back legs but is regaining mobility. She will take an experienced and patient foster or adopter. She uses the litterbox on her own but will need one with high sides. A puppy pad around the litterbox is recommended since sometimes she loses her balance. She is seeking a foster or a foster to adopt home, as we are waiting for her to get a little bit better prior to spaying her.

Story
Treble was found as a stray hanging from a fence by his back leg. No broken bones were found, however, he had significant swelling and necrotic tissue in his leg. In the end, his right hind leg had to be amputated. He may only have 3 legs but he doesn't need any special requirements. He can use the litter box on his own just fine. He is very shy but doesn't mind being pet and held. Just needs some time to warm up to his environment. He has healed from his surgery and some of his hair around his incision is starting to grow back. This little tripod kitty will make someone very happy!

Story
Leo was born in May 2017 to a stray mother. I adopted him and his brother once they were old enough. He is a true southern cat who likes to sleep his days away and enjoy the cool night air. He eats dry food twice a day and midday snacks. Leo is loving yet not really a lap cat. He spends the evenings near my feet until my bedtime. He doesn’t require a lot of attention unless he’s reminding me he’s hungry.

Story
Lucca was born in May of 2017 to a stray mother along with his brother Leo. I adopted him was soon as he was old enough. Lucca is a loving but independent pet. Not one to be held or sit on my lap but near me and loves getting petted. He does sleep most of the day but then by me in the evenings until my bedtime. He is like a guard cat walking the perimeter of the lanai cage and hunting geckos and tiny frogs. His loud purr is very soothing and reassuring.
