Story
I adopted Saint in October of 2021 when he was roughly two months old, he’s a sweet boy and very loving towards people. He’s very desensitized to kids and their hijinks. It takes some time for him to adjusted to other cats, new homes and other animals but he does it fairly quickly. He’s not neutered, chipped and has never been vaccinated. I can’t financially afford any of that and due to that he is spraying around the house.

Story
Artie came to us as a stray a few years ago, wandering up to our back porch one random evening. He was so socialized and friendly that I was certain he had a family, but no one ever claimed him. By then, he'd decided he lived with us and made himself at home. For the last few years, he's been an indoor/outdoor cat, and needs to stay in that kind of arrangement. He seems to have the spirit of an 8-year-old boy—he loves wandering in the woods behind our house, climbing trees and exploring our neighborhood, always coming back home for a meal, a warm snuggle, and a nap. He's quite low maintenance, as long as someone can let him in and out, and let him in your lap when he wants. He's independent but affectionate, has spurts of energy at inopportune times, and can be stubborn and vocal. He's been good with our dogs, and with other cats but takes a bit to warm up. He's better with adults than young children, but he's fine with kids as long as they can respect some boundaries.

Story
Hello! I recently adopted a cat from family as my previous pet passed away last year and it was time for a new one. I was not aware, and neither were they apparently, that this cat was pregnant. She has given birth to 4 very healthy babies. They are about 6 weeks old, eating dry food, use the litter box pretty well, and are veeeeeery energetic. I do not have the capability to take care of 5 cats, and I genuinely do not want to take them to a shelter as I would be devastated if they did not get adopted and the worst happened. I'm hoping to see them off to new homes asap! It's not required to take all 4, even re-homing one would be amazing! Thank you for your consideration!

Story
Axl is loyal and playful, and loves to be around people. He is seven years old. I adopted him from my brother in Dallas, Texas when he moved in with someone who was allergic to cats. Axl came with me when I had to move back to Iowa to take care of my dad. However, my dad has allergies towards cats and that is why we need to find Axl a new home. He is very simple. His favorite toy is a shoelace and he loves to be pet. And yes, he does not have a tail. He does have a sensitive stomach so he can only eat dry food. He has a thing for chewing on plastic bags ( zip lock bags, hamburger bun bags, etc.) he will swallow it, and it does make him throw up so I have to keep him away from those things. Axl is very loyal. He’ll watch TV with you and he will always be by your side.
