Story
I adopted Pita 3 years ago. She is sweet and well behaved. I have to go help my dad who is bed bound and lives 2 hours a way. I will be there more than at my home. My parents don't want me to bring my cat. I Need someone to love and care for Pita Pita will play a version of hide-n-seek. Sometimes she will play fetch with her favorite Spring toy. Pita is not a cuddly cat. She will sit on my lap but could careless to be petted. That being said she loves being brushed...go figure.

Story
Grayson is a Courtesy Listing and is not housed at the Animal Shelter. Please note that the City of Bloomington Animal Care & Control accepts no responsibility for this pet. Potential adopters are responsible for communicating directly with the pet's guardian.We’ve had Grayson since he was a kitten. He lives mostly outside with his brother from the same litter, although he would really prefer to be inside more than we’re able to provide. He’s very social and affectionate, and absolutely loves to cuddle. We also have a dog that he’s very comfortable around. Ideally he’ll go to a home that wants an indoor lap cat.Grayson’s brother Buddy is also available for adoption in a separate listing. They mostly ignore one another, so it’s probably ok to separate them. If you are interested in Grayson, please email mikerecord01@gmail.com. ***Please ignore the Apply to Adopt button for this pet & contact the owner directly***

Story
Cat (yes his name is really Cat), was found as a stray while I was on vacation in Mississippi. Unknown exactly how old he is, but appears to be a younger adult cat. He’s a very sweet cat, he loves to cuddle. Cat does need someone who can give him ample affection as he can have separation anxiety at times. He will always greet you at the door with many hugs and meows. He likes to be held, and often times will jump up onto you if you invite him to do so. He will receive a vet checkup before he gets rehomed to ensure his new family receives him with as much health information as possible. I unfortunately cannot keep him due to unfortunate personal life events, and I will not be able to house him. Please reach out with any questions and I will do my best to answer what I know. He comes with his favorite cat tower, toys and scratch post

Story
Please come take a look at Lucky Stars. He is beautiful. Very unique cat. Likes to go outside, where he pottys and loves to be there. He also loves to be in where he eats and will sometimes sleep all afternoon on my bed. He will lay across me and just melt. He is very vocal. Responds as if he is really talking to you. He tells you when he wants to come in and go out. He is 6.5 year old. I am moving and my grandson there is allergic. I love Lucky but need to find him a good home. Rabies 3 year shot, maybe due in 2026. No other recent shots. Frontline recently. He is neutered & chipped. This is hard. I want to find someone who will love him like I do. He really is interesting and has a lot of personality. Thank you
