Story
Lilly is very loving and gentle with all other cats, children and people. She's one year old. She has beautiful markings and log and thin. She loves laser lights toys and jumping. She chases reflections on the walls or wherever. She is an indoor only cat and has no desire to go outside. She was a bottle fed kitty along with her siblings. They were found in a barn abandoned and I took her out of charity but I have two other cats and have disabilities due to a stroke. So I can't afford all three and have trouble taking care of 3 cats. She is very lovable with my 4 year old grandson.

Story
Pepper is in need of a new home! It's at no fault of hers, the other animals in the house just aren't comfortable with newcomers and can't seem to adjust; She deserves a home where she can roam around freely and comfortably. **KEY INFO** - 2-3 y/o - Spayed female - ≈8-9 lbs (small) - Cat selective, better with more laid back housemates - Not great with dogs, may do okay with small/calm ones - Will hunt smaller animals (mice, lizards, etc); she WILL NOT be rehomed anywhere she'll have access to a small pet - Indoor only (you'll likely never see her again otherwise) - Litter trained - Medium energy - Weary of men (likely to adjust to familiar people so long as her boundaries are respected) - Good with (respectful) kids Please message me if you have any other questions or would like to hear more about her personality!! (785) 478-6545 - No adoption fee, I only want to make sure she goes to a good home.

Story
Millie showed up the first day we moved into our new house in the country and refused to leave. That was 4.5 years ago. Because she was a country kitty first, we are not sure exactly how old she is, but assuming 5-6 years old. We live in the city now, but she is still used to being an indoor/outdoor cat. She is a sweetheart who loves cuddles but is not pushy about it. She is also very social around company. She lives with 2 of her kittens and does a great job taking care of them. She is good at coming when you call and is overall well-behaved. Millie is looking for someone who wants a friendly companion who will take great care of her and give her lots of scratches and brushes.

Story
Mountain was born 4 years ago in our closet and still lives with his mom and 1 of his sisters. He was named Mountain because he was the first one to conquer climbing over the box wall to leave the closet. But he has definitely lived up to the name with his size. He has lived half his life in the country and half in the city and is still used to being an indoor/outdoor cat. He loves a full body scratch and brushing and will be your best friend if you can provide that. He's a little skittish and skeptical, so it will warm your heart when you earn his trust and he'll use his big ol' head to demand you give him some love .
