Story
Hi I'm Felix! born late September 2023. My foster parents found me when I was 4 weeks old outside mewing my little heart out, and they decided to raise me to an adoptable age. They have worked with me to learn my manners and learn how to be a good boy and an indoor kitty. I always use the litterbox! I am a wild and crazy kind of guy. My foster parents think I am funny. I am very appealing and cute with a lot of personality! And I am a good lookin' fella sorta a grey tuxedo cat. I am a good hunter for an indoor kitty. I'm not a picky eater and have no known health problems. I would need a home with an experienced cat owner. I stll get a little feisty and need a reminder that such behavior is not appropriate. But hey I'm still a kitten! I'm alpha male 100% so *maybe* ok with another male cat who would agree I am the boss. I'm ready for my fur-ever home. Are you my next adventure? Note: not a snuggler - yet. I'm trying to learn how to be close.

Story
Hello, I'm Samson. I've seen a lot in my time, and I've learned the art of companionship. I'm as sweet as a summer's day and friendly as a morning sun. My days are filled with gentle purrs and soft meows, a melody of contentment. I love a good chin scratch, and I'm always ready for a warm lap to curl up on. I may be a senior, but I still have plenty of love to give. I believe every day is a gift, and I'm ready to share that gift with you. Adopt me, and let's make our days brighter together.To meet Samson please fill out his interest form here.https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSekXj5aI_tQI_YHKMn4hisy475dCQIjZc0kJJ0AV55srRHL2Q/viewform

Story
Momma is a feral that decided she wanted to come in when it was freezing. Found out she was pregnant so kept until she had her kittens which all have been adopted. I just got her spayed and shots. Did not get dewormer. She would be a good farm cat or someone that wants an indoor/outdoor cat. She wants to get out. She is still skittish with touch but will take treats from my hand.

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
