Story
Hello, we're Lilo and Stitch, the inseparable duo! We're known for our sweet and friendly nature. We're a curious pair, always up for a new adventure. We're also a bit goofy and funny, which keeps our foster parents entertained. Our smarts? Oh, we've got plenty! We've figured out the comfiest spots to curl up and the best times to ask for treats. We love cuddles, but we're also independent, content to explore on our own. We're loyal to each other and to our human friends. We'd love to bring our unique blend of joy, loyalty, and laughter to your home. Adopt us, and let our love story become a part of yours! Adoption includes spay/neuter, vaccines (rabies, HCPCh, FeLv), booster shots of HCPCh, and FeLv, microchip, FIV/FeLv testing, and deworming.

Story
We are trying to rehome our cat, Chara. She is five years old (born July 18, 2018), fixed and housebroken. We got her and her brother when they were kittens. We have had additional family members move in with us due to medical issues. Since then, Chara has been stressed. Too many people. Too much noise. The poor thing is jumping at shadows. Due to the stress, she has been peeing outside of the litter box on occasion, and fighting with her brother and the dog. She is a good cat and very affectionate. She just needs a quieter environment. Thanks!

Story
Hi, my name is Reggie (for now)! I was found as a stray right before Thanksgiving. I was taken inside, given all my shots, and neutered. I love being an indoor cat and am very friendly with the humans I’ve met. I'm chatty when I want something, I love playing with my toys, and I’ll sometimes settle on the couch to cuddle. Some facts about Reggie: - Reggie is very playful and loves to play fetch with his toy mouse. - He’s visited with a few other cats and seems like he might do well with a friendly, confident kitty friend. - Reggie came with some agitation when seeing other animals through the window, but he's calmed down since settling into his foster home. He might need patience in a new home. - Reggie has not been around dogs or children, but a meet and greet prior to adoption could be arranged.
