Story
Demeter is a sweet little cat. Her age is unknown as she was rescued by a family member from a cat hoarding situation in 2020 and was a young adult at the time. She might be 6? She is not spayed because she was taken in by college kids who didn’t know what to do with her. She is “painfully” shy, does not get along with other cats, likes gentle humans. She needs to be rehomed asap because 1. Landlord doesn’t accept her and 2. She is bullied by the 2 ESA cats she is currently living with and 3. She is currently terrified and unhappy in her situation. Demeter needs to be in a mature, single cat, indoor, loving, calm home with either one or two responsible adults who will have her spayed and offer her security and consistency.

Story
Papaya is 4 years old and we’ve had him since he was a kitten. He’s travelled across the country with us to find our dream home. At the moment we are living with my in laws and they are not fond of cats. Also I am developing an allergy to him. He’s always been loving no matter what the situation and we know there’s someone out there who can love him the way he deserves.

Story
Atticus is the calmest, wisest soul. He is my best friend and he has been with me through so much. While he has quite a tough shell, he is so sweet, cuddly, and purrs a lot once he’s comfortable. I desperately need someone to take him, please. I’m begging. I can’t abandon him and send him to a shelter. I hate to let my best friend go, but my mom adopted another (male) cat and it has made Atticus very territorial. He has been peeing everywhere and so my mom has decided to get rid of him, however he has never had an issue with peeing outside of the litter box in the six years I’ve had him. He doesn’t deserve to be abandoned, but I have no choice. He is very good with small children and with big dogs, he just apparently gets defensive around other male cats. He likes his outside time. I promise Atticus will be the most chill and laidback cat. He isn’t clingy and has a pretty low threshold need for attention. Please, my mom is sending him to a shelter by Friday. He deserves a good home.
