This handsome fella is very quiet and sweet. He keeps to himself here, but gets along with all the other cats. He really wants a home to call his own, so he can unwind and be himself. Come see sweet Nacho! He would love to meet you. He is such a sweet, sweet boy. He will let you hold him! Here's what Nacho wrote on his social media post (he's so funny): I'm Nacho & I'm Nacho average cat! Hobbies include: Looking at stuff Letting you hold me Eating stuff Judging you Napping and stuff Thinking about how I look like a dreamscicle I'm a cool cat, but I'm Nach-ors yet.

Pixie is a gorgeous gal with a great personality! Her shenanigans will keep you entertained, and her affection will keep you feeling loved! She loves to help clean by chasing brooms when you sweep.
