Story
She showed up towards the end of summer and she was with a possum and a raccoon. I ended up feeding all of them every night. They were on the doorbell video. I started trying to go outside late so I could interact with the cat. I ended up seeing if the cat would like being around my young grandchildren and she did the 4 year old. So I ended up letting her inside and I have had her inside for about two weeks and I am afraid to turn her outside because of the cold I’m afraid she might freeze if she gets wet at this point. So I’m looking for someone that can take her and get her fixed and vaccinated because I can’t afford it and she needs someone that knows how to train a cat because I have no idea. I have a dog inside and my dog doesn’t like the cat. That’s another reason why I need to find someone who would love her and take care of her. My grandson named her. I have several 3 lb bags of kitty food that I can give to her new owner and a brand new bed and scratch post.

Story
Hello I need to rehome my cat due to severe allergies and change in living situation where I can no longer provide financially or physically for my cat. I am in Cincinnati/Dayton Ohio. My cat, Azula, is a 5 year old female that I adopted at 14 weeks old from Myles Ahead Animal Sanctuary. She is shy and would do best in a quiet household as the only animal. She loves eggs and will 'cry meow' and "lay down" for them like a dog. She would not do well with loud, young children, only maybe older children who will respect her space. She tolerates other cats, dogs, and birds but prefers to be an only child. She is low to mid energy, litter box trained, and house broken. She has her claws but does not scratch furniture destructively as long as she has a cat tree/cat scratching posts. She loves having the windows open during the summer time to watch outside. She is spayed and up to date on vaccines.

Story
I URGENTLY need to rehome my 2 year old cat Chance. PLEASE HELP. He is fixed and a polydactyl cat. Unfortunately is is very fearful of new people so it will take him a while to warm up to you, but he is very loving. Gets along with dogs and I have another male cat. My 1 request of his rehoming is you have a place for a Catio! Please take mine, have one , or buy one for him to sit outside. He loves sitting in my catio ( cat padio) all day but is terrified to be outside by himself. He loves flying feather toys, and has a weird fixation with twist ties and thumb tacks (for real he'll steal them out of cork boards) He likes to snuggle occasionally. And loves to sleep in bed with up you. Spends most of his time looking out windows or sun bathing in his catio. Doesn't NOT like yelling or cursing. He will run and hid if people are yelling. He's never been around kids, but I think he'd do great.

Story
Leo is a gentle old man who has a quiet scratchy chirp for a voice. He is hard of hearing and limited vision in one eye. He has been a stray growing up in an apartment complex where he has been bullied by other cats and likely was hit by a car when he was a kitten. He walks with a limp and has one good eye. He had an infection as a kitten that wasn’t treated so unfortunately he lost vision in one eye because of that. He is litter box trained but would need time to decompress and adjust to life inside. He is friendly either his caretakers and walks with the couples dog. The dog shows no interest in him so he is good with him. He is an old man that just needs a place to retire and rest. He loves windows and would love a covered enclosed catio. He would do best in a home with no children and no rowdy cats or dogs. He needs a retirement home. He just needs a safe quiet clean place with a gentle voice, little pats here & there, not too much fuss, and a cozy spots to sleep.

Story
This is Tony! I have had her since she was just a baby. I found her behind a garage and bottle fed her until she could eat on her own. She is approximately 7 months now and is up to date on all vaccinations and has been spayed. She does well with other cats and tolerates dogs. Shes very affectionate and she’s a big talker! I am unable to keep her as I am moving into a place that does not accept animals. She will come with some food and her vet records.
