Story
I found this momma cat. She was on my porch a few months back and was pregnant. I believe she was dumped because she was to friendly to be ferel. I took her in to foster her and help her with her kittens and find them all homes. I unfortunately already have animals myself and can't keep her. I was just trying to help her and keep her out of danger till she had her kittens and could be re-homed. I did take her to get spayed and her Rabies Vaccine as well as the FVRCP Vaccine. She is a very sweet cat. The vet estimated her to be between 2-3 years old. Let me know if you have any questions!

Story
I've had archer for 8ish years. I adopted him from partners for pets. He's always been a little difficult, but can also be very sweet on his own terms. He's very independent. He likes to go outside, no matter how much I've tried to keep him in. I'm sad to let him go, but he's just not working for my family anymore. I had a baby recently and he doesn't do well with small children. He does great with older children though. He does ok with dogs. I think he'd prefer a house without them but tolerates them ok. He'll need lots of scratching posts and toys because he likes to hunt. No rehoming fee as I just want him to go somewhere that he'll be happy. Ill include his litter boxes, food, bowl, and cat carrier. He is missing most of his tail. He was found that way by partners for pets. His original name was Popeye because he was found In a Popeyes parking lot.

Petey is another playful, orange boy. He will likely be a big cat but that’s just more to love! Petey gets along well with the other cats he’s with now and will be able to adjust to a new home.

Story
Hi, I'm Olivia! I'm a sweet, playful girl with lots of love and energy to share. I was a stray, but thanks to my foster parents, I'm getting lots of care, warmth, and attention, but I'm still looking for my forever home. I am about 1 1/2 years old, spayed, FIV/FeLV negative and up-to-date on my shots. I absolutely love pets and cuddles from my humans. I also love to play to get out all my energy! After an exciting day of playing and exploring, I just want to curl up with my people. While I am great with humans, I have had bad experiences with other cats. I need to be the queen of my own castle! I don't know how I feel about other animals yet.

Story
This is Reba. She has lived with 3 dogs for the last six years, and has been around other dogs and has never had a problem with them. She has not been around another cat since I adopted her six years ago so, I do not know if she’s good with other cats. She’s not great with young kids, my son (he’s two) tries to handle her and she has scratched and/or bit. She’s been living upstairs so that my son is away from her but that’s no life for a cat. You can tell that she’s lonely. She won’t use a hooded litter box, or at least won’t for me.

Story
This is a beautiful, friendly male cat. His coat is gray, with black stripes, with black spots. He arrived at our house about a month ago, and we fed him twice daily. He comes every day and sleeps overnight on our patio lounger. He seems very hungry and thankful for the food, and he is street-wise because he knows how to cross a busy street. I believe he could be two years old. He would make a lovely pet for someone because he has been around people. I put a notice on Nextdoor Neighbor with his picture, but no one has claimed him yet.
