Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Granger is a high climbing, curious adventurer who will snuggle her preferred person all day long. She loves an opportunity to go outside but has been an indoor cat due to living in high traffic areas. She has been my fur kid for the past 9 years. I adopted her at 8 months old from a family member who needed to re-home Granger due to her aggressiveness towards their child. Now that I have had my first child who is 10 months, Granger has started being aggressive towards him and marking his clothing and toys. It is clear that she needs to go to a home with only older children who understand animal body language and will not invade Granger’s space. Granger lives with 3 dogs and 1 other cat. She lives peacefully with the other furry friends unless they try to chase her or force playful interaction. She is very affectionate towards baby animals and may be a good fit for someone with a motherless kitten who needs a momma cat to teach them how to cat! Curious, Cautious, Athletic, and Elusive!

Story
Prizmo is 4 years old (born April 2021) and we are unfortunately needing to re-home is as we are welcoming a baby in February 2026. He has shown some aggression towards our friend’s toddler so we are nervous about having him in the home with a newborn. Otherwise, he is very cuddly and sweet and loves to play. His favorite toys are springs and he will need an owner who is willing to give him lots of attention and love. He is the only cat in the home so we are unsure as to how he will interact with other pets. He has been around my sister’s dog and with a couple of visits, he has grown to coexist with him when he comes over. If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Hello, I'm Shamrock! I'm a sweet, friendly cat who loves to chat. I'm not one to shy away from a good conversation. I adore humans and their company. I've always been a good listener, so if you've had a long day and need a friend, I'm here. I can't resist a good play session either. Toys, lasers, strings, you name it, I'm all in. I'm also a fan of quiet times, a good nap is my idea of a perfect afternoon. I have so much love to give and I'm ready to share it with a family. Why should you adopt me? Because I promise to fill your life with purrs, headbutts, and endless companionship. I'm ready to be your forever friend. new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TIP-A-342

Story
Hi, I'm Arlington, a kitten who loves my quiet moments. Here in the shelter, I've found a few cozy corners where I can watch the world go by. I'm a bit shy, so I might take a moment to warm up, but once I do, I cherish gentle pets and quiet company. I'm quite independent, finding joy in little things like a sunbeam or a soft blanket. If you're looking for a calm companion who respects space and offers peaceful companionship, I might just be your perfect match. new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TIP-A-475
