Story
Gingerbread Man is a BEAUTIFUL almost 2-year old cat I rescued when he was abandoned as a kitten. Although he doesn't like to be picked up or held, he does like to snuggle up to me on the sofa or in bed where he sleeps with me. Helotes to look out windows and sleep in my sun room. GBM can bite and scratch when having to be corralled to go to the vet's. Since I am 76 I am concerned about his being under foot, but I have enjoyed his company.

Story
I rescued Theo a little over 2 years ago back in florida. He is about 2-3 years old. I’m looking for someone to give him plenty of love and attention. I no longer have the resources to keep him anymore. Theo is very affectionate, loving, sweet, quiet good boy.

Story
I adopted Pepper 4 years ago--I believe she is between 5 and 6 years old. This sweet girl was slow to warm up to the family, but now she loves being around people, especially outside where she follows me around the yard and garden (she's an indoor/outdoor cat). She is polydactyl with lots of extra toes, and is an excellent hunter. In our busy home she has become accustomed to gentle kids, dogs, and other cats, and is definitely one of the more curious cats that I know. She tolerates the other animals fine, but I think could be very happy as a solo pet. She is healthy, up-to-date on all shots, and has been spayed. I am about to move into a home with a person that has an extreme allergy to cats and I unfortunately can't take the cats with me.

Story
Violet is a one of a kind adult cat. As a kitten she looked like a seal point Siamese, and has evolved into a "cat of many colors" She has beautiful blue eyes, a mix of dilute calico, part tabby and part Siamese with brown accents. Her beautiful front legs have brown stripes and brown spots. She has a great personality. The hair down the center of her back is raised, no matter what her mood. She is many different cats all in one. She sleeps with me at night but uses her beds in the living room too. She has a tall cat tree and loves to sleep on the top bed. She is an indoor cat but loves to follow me outside and responds to verbal commands. She is on flea control drops, and is a very healthy big girl who weighs 25 pounds. She has strong hunting instincts and loves to chase a lazer pointer. I am very sad that I have to re-home her, and I need to be certain she goes a loving, forever home. She has a new, never used, giant litter box that goes with her too.

Story
This sweet guy showed up in the tree by our deck. He was immediately friendly, loving, and charming. It was obvious that he was a house cat (he was terrified of being outside) and has had a lot of attention. He loves to be held like a baby and pulls your face down for kisses. He is very talkative and enjoys carrying on a conversation with anyone who will listen and loves being a lap cat (His preferred place for a nap). He also still plays like a kitten. He enjoys chasing nerf balls, laser pointers, and almost any type of cat toy. He really needs to be an only cat. He is great with our kitten, but fights with our adult girl cats. He would also do well with a family that has older kids who can play with him to help curb his high and fun energy. We have searched and searched for his owners to no avail. We are not sure why, but we think that he was possibly abandoned.
