Story
Miso is a good cat we just had a baby and are struggling to find the time for the attention he needs. Also he has a bit of a fetish for paper towels, tissues, and or napkins. He eats them. also has a deep desire to consume formula this has included burp cloths and a onesie. Without these things he is well behaved animal and i think with more attention most of the bad behaviors would go away. I would also like to add we have a kennel and a litter box tat would be available to come with the little guy. We let him out of the kennel when the baby stuff is not around and he is well behaved without supervision. I know that if he was in a home that he was the only cat or you just have lots of love and time he would bring joy to your life. He also loves a fishing pole toy will play until you are tired. Miso likes all costumes we have tried on him. We found him he was 2 weeks old and if we had the time we would not be rehoming him but we just don't have a choice.

Story
Lois needs a new home that can give her more individual attention. She loves to have her ears scratched and napping in laps, but right now a young child is stressing her out, so she’s acting out against another older cat in the house. She’s a smaller, indoor cat, who is 2 years old. Born Feb 2024. Loves string toys, balls, and soft furry blankets to knead. She needs someone who can give her more love and attention in a quieter environment.

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
Hi. This little guy's name is Oliver. He is about 13 years old. I got him as kitten when I lived in Austin and then moved him up to Saint Louis. He is an incredibly sweet and loving fella. He's pretty chatty too. I need to move back to to Texas and will not be able to afford a house there like I have here. I hate to leave him behind, as well as my other cats, but I can't sell a home with cat smell in it, or rent an apartment with so many cats. Oliver has been with me throughout alot of major events in my life and has always made me feel better. We always said he would make a good therapy cat. This is truly agonizing but the chance that Oliver can go to happy home and be loved is the only thing keeping me from crying over this. Please look over his pics. You can see the sweetness is his eyes.
