Story
Ms Luna has been a wonderful part of our family for the last 6 years. Due to moving to a new home where pets are NOT allowed, we must rehome our sweet girl :( Luna is the most sweet and kind feline we have ever met! She loves our big dog (70lbs) and is excellent (and tolerate) of children of all ages. She is completely litter trained and is very low maintenance. She does well with baths and loves being brushed. She loves to snuggle on the couch with us and enjoys a warm, soft bed (of her own even). She is approx 6 years old. She was 6 months old when our family adopted her. She is 100% an indoor cat!!!!

Story
We got Rain from a shelter when she was 6 months. She will be 3 in April. She is adorable and very lovable. We hate that we have to rehome her, but she hates our new baby and keeps pooping and peeing in our basement in hopes he will leave (obviously not happening). Even though she is very cute and loves belly rubs and snuggles, she can be very spiteful. She needs an experienced owner who will help her work through the transition period and can give her lots of attention. She is good around other cats, but needs time to get used to them. She also doesn’t like to clean her rear and often smells.

Good with cats, House-trained,
Story
Big Man is an older (7-10 year) male stray that wandered under my shed to find some shelter and warmth this winter. I cannot afford to keep him and I own pet rabbits and thus cannot adopt an adult cat at this time (otherwise he would be mine because my wife and I have absolutely fallen in love with him). He’s a little over 10 pounds and the tip of his tail is crooked, as he likely broke it years ago and it healed at an angle. He’s an incredibly gentle and calm cat, and does very well with other cats and humans he doesn’t know. Unlike most cats, Big Man absolutely loves belly rubs. Despite not being fixed, he does not show any signs of aggressive or territorial behavior, and is fully litter trained. When we found him, it was clear he had some tummy discomfort, and it turned out he had roundworms. We have since medicated him and he’s back to full strength. $50 adoption fee covers medication, litter, and food costs for the time we’ve been fostering him. Please help us find him a home :)

Story
Cappuccino Ballerina showed up one day at our house. She had a serious wound on the side of her head. Ive since got her all healed up and looking like a beautiful Ballerina again! She is seriously the sweetest kitty and loves all the cuddles and scratches. I currently have 5 cats so I am unable to keep her permanently. She is very friendly and does well with my other cats. She really needs a home before the winter if at all possible.

Story
Banjo was found in a grocery store parking lot near the dumpsters in our local town. We quickly got our TNR set up and brought him home. After 8 months of resocialization, Banjo is now one of our most loving cats. He gets along great with our guardian dogs and is often seen cuddling up to them. He deserves a safe, loving, and cuddly life with the right family!
