Story
I received Chat via Facebook before summer began this year. She was around 7 months and should be about 1 year old now. I am looking for a home that will suit Chat’s tendency of the stereotype “Scaredy Cat.” At first, she can be skiddish and fast, but once she gets to know you, she will reassure her affection towards you and will call for you during the day. She is a sweetheart when she knows it’s you and her against the world!

Story
Ginger was adopted from the APA in Saint Louis in July 2025. He was thought to be a little over a year old. He had been there for over a month, left with another cat whom had been adopted. In the shelter, Ginger was very frightened and disengaged. At home, he is curious and playful. He is shy at first, but ok with dogs as long as they don’t chase. Introduction to my resident cat has not gone well, though. Ginger would do best in a quieter home as the only cat.

Story
Kimchi is a very mild mannered cat, good temperament. He’s a boy however and often I find him kind of stalking my other daughter Nala and that I do not like. They often get into brief spays as well. Kimchi was my older sisters cat but she moved away and left him with me. I am looking for someone to adopt him. He is neutered but hasn’t been to the vet in over a year. He mostly stays indoors however and is litter box trained.

Story
Lassiter came to us with his littermates who are also available for adoption. We would love if he could be adopted out along with his sister Gussy (Shown cuddling with him in phots below). Since Lassy was a kitten he's been cautious and introverted. It takes more time and patience for him to relax but once he does he is just the sweetest, most loving boy. His favorite things are cuddling with his sister, having lap time with his humans, and playing with strings.
