Meet Kiwi! She is an absolutely amazing girl. I am moving out of state and am unable to take her with me. She is kind, Loving and an amazing cuddler. She is a bit shy around other animals so she is best suited to be the only pet in the home. She is spayed and will come with food and other supplies and toys. She is playful and well mannered. I love her so much I want her to go to a family that will love her as much as I have. If your interested in making Kiwi a part of the family please reach out.

Story
Hey, I found this kitten in a ditch in my back yard. I was letting my dog out when I heard him crying. It was raining really hard this morning and he was so tiny and helpless. I took him inside and tried to see if he had a home in the area, but no one claimed him. We named him Little Tom but my dog has several health issues due to allergies and tumors. I am already drowning in vet bills. I cannot afford to keep this little guy, but he is a very good kitten. He gets along with my adult cat who is a female and my dog who is a male pitbull. He loves to cuddle and he is very good with my 13 month old daughter. He is using the litter box and doing very well. I just dont have the finances or the time that he deserves.

Neo is about four years old. He walked up to me while I was getting out of my car. I found his owner and his owner said that she couldn’t take care of him. So I kept Neo and he has been with me since 2021. I moved from GA to IL and my new place doesn't allow pets. They're giving me time to rehome him. He had all his shots and has been neutered. He is well trained and always happy. Neo love kids, indoors, and sleeping at the end of beds. I have toys, supplies, cat stroller, food, etc . I just want him happy.

Story
1 year old Hemi was found in Oct 2023. She has grown up to be a very active, playful, curious, young cat. She loves to climb and go for walks. She can be indoor/outdoor. She is leesh trained. She has used normal and automatic litter boxes. She has not needed any medications and has had no medical issues. She does well at the vet. She gets along well with male cats, but female cats can be hit and miss. She has been around a few dogs and did well with them, but did not grow up with one. She will come with a few of her favorite toys and treats. She is fixed, so no baby kittens from her and has had routine vet visits. I need to rehome her due to too many cats, with my other 2 being more special needs (different cat families). She is chipped (not registered yet) and fully vaccinated for the next year. Paperwork avail for med history.

Story
This is Oscar he is approximately 7 years old. He was my mothers cat. She recently passed away and I can not have any more animals in my home due to my lease. He is very sweet and affectionate. He loves attention and just wants to snuggle and cuddle. He loves being held and rubbing your legs when you get home to express his happiness. He gets so excited sometimes his tail shakes almost like a dog! Lol. I am looking for a good home as this is what Oscar deserves. He plays well with other cats. I imagine he would do well in a home with other animals or children as he is just a big snuggle bug.
