Story
They were given to me sick and flea ridden about 9 months ago. They are clean and healthy now. One had a kitten. The oldest female is around 3 years old. She is a tortoiseshell. The other 3 are her kittens. Orange male tabby about 1 year old, all black female about 1 year old, tortoiseshell female kitten about 5 months old. I cannot afford to continue their care and need them to be rehomed to loving homes. No fees, as they will need to be spayed and neutered. Please contact via email turner.stefani@gmail.com

Story
Jade was found abandoned in a field by a friend in 2016. My friend could not take on another pet so she asked that I take her. Jade LOVES being connected with people and other pets. Personal space is a foreign concept to her and will often crawl all over you if you let her. She's a goofy, quirky cat. She has trouble sitting still, even when you're petting her. Aside from that, she is a well-behaved cat. She gets along well with cats and dogs and I'd presume with children, too. Jade would benefit from a home that matches the love and attention she has to offer. The purpose of rehoming is because my husband inherited his mom's cat after she passed away. Jade's curiosity and desire to play has resulted in some kitty brawls so we've reached the difficult decision of rehoming her.
