Story
Leda has been our cat for the past 7 years, since we adopted her as a kitten. Three babies and two cases of asthma and one allergy later we have made the tough decision to find her a new home. She used to live with another cat, but the other cat became aggressive and was removed to a home without another cat. Leda is good with our small children (ages 6, 3, and infant) but is still a cat and gets testy with them at times. She likes to roam in our backyard and would be happiest in a home with an outdoor space. However, she could also be kept exclusively inside in a home with a window seat.

Story
My roommate adopted Molly from Five Acres a couple years ago but he moved in with his girlfriend and her cats and she doesn’t get along with other cats at all so I need someone to adopt her who has no other pets. She’s 9 years old and very shy/ skittish. She loves attention and to lay next to you and have you pet her.
