Story
Geralt (of Rivia) was a failed foster during COVID. We took him in when the shelters were put on lockdown, and fell in love. He is incredibly friendly, and wants nothing more than to lay in your lap and snuggle. He can be quite chatty, but usually because he wants food or love. Super patient with our two very young children and gets along well with our dog. He is FIV+, which means he cannot be around other cats unless they are also FIV+. For this reason, we do not know if he gets along with other cats, but was previously a stray with the scars to prove it so I think he would be very defensive. The primary risk for an FIV+ cat is a condition called stomatosis (inflammation of the gums), but he is safe from this concern as he has had all of his teeth extracted. No meds needed. He can eat kibble still, and we can provide an automatic feeder so that he can have little meals throughout the day. He is litterbox trained. We are rehoming only because we are moving and cannot take him with us.

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
We got Laura through a rescue organization in 2015. We believe she's about 10 years old at this point. She's not aggressive and does not scratch or bite, but she doesn't like other animals invading her personal space and so is no longer a good fit for our family. Laura is much better with humans, and can be affectionate, with the right people. Laura does have a long-standing problem using the litterbox and sometimes goes on the floor around the box itself. She's not incontinent and will not go in any other room of the house but you may want to do what we do and put some puppy trainer pads down around the litter box just to be safe. Laura would make a good companion for somebody without other pets who is looking for a calm, mature cat without any major behavioral or health problems.

Story
Darci was found on the street when she was a baby, maybe 8 weeks old. I have had her since 2017. My child developed SEVERE allergies that can't be controlled by over the counter medicine so we would like to find her a new loving home. She gets along best with male cats, and male or female dogs. She will however tolerate female cats once she gets used to them. It takes her a little bit to warm up to new people. She loves to nap on the bed, and loves her cat treats. She eats dry food and uses the litter box.

Story
We rescued Dolly Purrton from Chicago Animal Control a few months ago. She's a 1-year old brown tabby who is naturally petite (8 lbs) and is adorable. She was with another cat at the shelter that had been adopted by another family already. When we got her, she was in very bad shape. She had eye, ear, and respiratory infections, and we thought she wasn't going to make it for a while, but we nursed her back to full health. She is incredibly sweet with us and our kids. She likes to play for long periods of time with wands and balls, but also loves to snuggle on laps, and will sleep on you or next to you in bed. She loves wet food and meat tubes, but does not seem to like crunchy treats. Unfortunately, she and our current cats do not get along. Although she was with other cats previously, she has shown aggression towards our two. We think she is a great cat, and we are very glad we rescued her, but she does not seem like a good fit for our family. She would be a fantastic fit with a fam
