Story
Gracie is an 8 year old cat who lived with her previous owner since she was a kitten. Her owner died last month and there was no one who could take her so I volunteered to keep her until I could find a good home for her. She is loving and loves to sit in a lap. She is not good with other animals. She probably wouldn't be good with young children. She weighs about 7 lbs. and she is so beautiful. She needs someone to take her and love her and give her a furrever home. She is not declawed and I would ask that any prospective owner would agree to not having her declawed. She is healthy and active.

Story
My mom adopted a 5-year-old Izzy about 5 years ago. Since then, my mom has become much more unsteady on her feet and has tripped over Izzy a few times. Izzy has lived with my family for a few weeks. She seems to tolerate our 1 year old Chihuahua mix fine, but she doesn't get along with our adult neutered male cat at all. Izzy is a shy, quiet cat. She's not especially playful, preferring instead to burrow under blankets for a nap or finding someone to cuddle with. She might take a while to warm up to new people, but once she gets to know you she loves pets and purrs easily. Izzy would make a terrific lap cat. She would do best in a quiet home as the only cat.
