Story
Mimi is our cherished cat, adopted as a kitten from a shelter 12 years ago. However, due to my son's severe cat dander allergy, we seek a new loving home for him. Mimi is a neutered male, 15 pounds, slightly chubby but healthy. He loves boiled shrimp the best followed by various canned cat foods, and practically anything you're eating—especially when ice cream or popsicles are involved, he’ll be right there attempting to get a lick. He enjoys human company, especially snuggling during TV time. He's shy with strangers yet gentle with children. He may growl and show his teeth to balls, vacuum cleaners, and mops, portraying a facade of bravery before scampering away; he’s never displayed any aggressive behavior. Though not a fan of baths, we've been using rinse-free shampoo for his groom. He’s accustomed to indoor living but enjoys a brief outdoor break. He hasn't lived with other pets and may need time to adjust. We hope to find a responsible and loving new home for him. Thank you!

Story
Some friends found Danny outside in May 2023. We brought him into our home with 1 existing cat. He is neutered, vaccinated, and FIV negative. He had 4 teeth removed in June. Danny has always been independent. He likes to be pet on his own terms, and can be skittish and swipey if surprised. We thought he would settle down with time and dental care. But after 3 months it's clear that he needs more attention than we can provide. Danny is rambunctious and wants to wrestle. But, as he is 12 lbs and twice the size of our other cat, she meets his play with fear and hissing. We don't have the time or energy to play with him enough. Unable to get his energy out, he is trending towards bored and territorial. But I've also seen a different side to Danny. The one that, from the day he came home, would join you in the bathroom. The one that cuddles up with me at 2am and headbutts me until I scritch him. The one who goes NUTS for a laser pointer. I hope with the proper family he can be happy.

Story
Jovi is a very sweet rambunctious kitty. He turned 2 in July. He's good with kids and likes smaller dogs if they like him. He does have some issues with sneezing sometimes but I give him lyzene gel when it acts up. He uses his litter box and has never had an accident. He loves people and cuddling on your lap. Unfortunately I have two grandkids that are allergic and one of them is a baby that I started watching daily.

Story
Super sweet cat found in a parking lot. Took to a vet and found out she has a microchip but the original owner can’t take her back. She is okay with dogs but has not been getting along with the cat I already have.

Story
Willow is a lovely 9-month-old tortie girl who is patiently waiting for her forever home! She loves to play with her catnip mice and likes to explore/climb. She can be a diva at times (tortitude, much?) and will meow for treats and whenever she thinks her litterbox should be cleaned. She does well with people of all ages. She can take a while to get used to other cats, but she loves spending time with her brother, Panther. They are always playing or cuddling and are absolute BFFs! She has not been around dogs before. If you're looking for a new kitty friend (or friends, if you'd like to adopt her brother Panther as well) to bring into your home, Willow would be a great choice!
