Story
Young female cat. Appears to be house trained, uses litter box. Posted on lost and found sites. Very friendly with adults and kids. Gets bullied by feral outdoor cats so don't know how it will react to other pets in the home. Constantly playing but seems to sleep at night and not doing cat ninja stuff at night. Doesn't meow even with bedroom doors closed at night. She currently doesn't go into any bedrooms/bathrooms, we keep the doors closed. She showed up on our doorstep starving so we fed her but she never left. It got cold and made her a shelter outside. When temps got too low we brought her inside. She still goes outside but for short periods of time before she wants to come back in. Im very allergic to cat dander and have been taking meds to help. I work remotely and it is very difficult with itchy eyes, runny nose and constant sneezing. She will need an indoor family.

Story
I acquired Carl with his brother, Rory, from the same litter when a stray in the neighborhood got pregnant. He is now 6 years old and much larger than he was when I got him (around 17 lbs). He is super snuggly and clingy, and wants to be wherever you are. He loves to meet new people but is cautious about other animals (he always comes around though). He is good with dogs, usually ignoring them unless they are over friendly, in which case he will run away. He loves ranch, yogurt, and watching TV.

Story
Two brother kittens for adoption. They are about 3 months old. We are fostering them until we can find a good home for them. We are getting them vaccinated and planning to get them neutered once they are old enough. They have great personalities. Tux (Black & White) is very active and playful. He loves to explore. Shuffles (Tiger Striped) loves to find nooks to take naps and cuddle. We are hoping they can stay together.

Found her in a parking lot of a church in the middle of nowhere. Extremely sweet cat that has no fear. Jumped right in my car and got in the backseat with my dog immediately when I found her. Very playful and cuddly - wants to be held and pet all the time.
