Story
Max was a super friendly stray that I took in when the weather turned cold. He has adjusted to indoor life really well - he loves to play with a wand toy and loves a bit of catnip. My two older cats are not impressed with his teenage energy, however, so we hope to find him a loving home where he can play without judgment.

Story
Meet my sweet baby 🐾 This is one of the hardest posts I’ve ever had to make. Due to personal/life changes, I’m looking to rehome my cat and I want to find them the most loving, safe home possible. She is incredibly gentle, affectionate, and love to cuddle up right next to you (as you can see 🥺). She’s the type of cat that will follow you from room to room just to be near you. Super calm, great with relaxing days, and loves soft blankets and warm naps. This decision wasn’t made lightly & I love her deeply and just want a home where she can get the time, attention, and stability they deserve. If you or someone you trust is looking for a sweet companion, please message me. I will be asking questions because finding the right home matters most ❤️

Story
This is Cinder, the cutest lil cat you'll ever meet! She's just a tiny girl, coming in at a whopping 6.5 pounds, but what she lacks in size she more than makes up for in character. She loves cuddling up when she's feeling sleepy if you let her come to you, and she's always in the mood to play if she sees a cat wand or a plastic spring. She's fairly young still, at just under two years old, and is up to date on all of her needed shots. I am making the tough decision to rehome her after adopting her last spring, as she doesn't get along with my other male cat. She may do better in a one-cat home, or in a home with all female cats. Thanks for looking and please let me know if you're interested in adopting this sweet kitten!

Story
Ginger was adopted in July 2025. He was thought to be a little over a year old. He had been in the shelter for over a month, left with another cat who was adopted. In the shelter Ginger was very frightened and disengaged. At home, he is curious and playful. He loves his mouse toy and his scratch pads. He allows me to clip his nails regularly. A substantial beefcake; Ginger is nearing 20 pounds. He’ll let you know if you’re unsure about breakfast or dinner time. Shy at first, once Ginger has warmed up to you he likes to be carried around, to be brushed, and to watch you. He is good with calm dogs. Introduction to my resident cat has not gone well, though. Ginger would do best as the only cat in your home.

Story
Rusty was born in April of 2024. He is currently a year and 9 months old. He is very sweet with a side of mischievous to him. I have bought him numerous toys since I have had him but, he prefers to play with q tips, and really enjoys cat nip. He is very silly and overall a very great cat. I have to travel for work and often times have to leave on very short notice and it has been challenging arranging care for him while I am gone. That is why I am choosing to re home him. He will be coming with a hard and soft shell cat carrier, his food, a litter box (if you want/ need it), as well as the litter he currently has left over
