Story
I found Smoky as a tiny 6-8 week old in a dumpster outside the restaurant I worked in. He has been only an indoor cat and was enrolled in a regular vet care program the last year and a half and has been fixed, had all his shots etc. He's been a very loving sweet cat, but a few months ago my girl friend moved in with a cat and my mom's fiance brought in a dog that's here a lot. I got a new job with 12 hour shifts and lots of overtime at Kellanova and Smoky has been an anxious mess. He hides and runs and is scared of the cat and the dog. He never fights with the dog or cat, but he is definitely not my happy boy and I'm not there for him enough. He just isn't adjusting and I finally have to admit for his own happiness and health, I need to give him up. I only want a loving, patient home for him so he can be his old sweet content self and be loved and happy. He's really a beautiful silver cat with just a shade lighter grey around his face. Please take him home and love him.

Story
Charlie is unlike any other cat I’ve had, he has such a sweet personality and is so smart and funny! He is 4 yrs old and i adopted him from a shelter when he was 1, he was dying, it took a month to figure out he was not only dehydrated but allergic to chicken and anything with chicken in it. He eats a duck and pea kibble even though when we adopted him we realized he only had his upper row of teeth and fangs so he swallows most of it, the vet said to give him tuna a few times a day to give his digestive track a break and he has been flourishing! I would give anything in the world to keep my sweet boy but I have to relocate and pets are not allowed. I pray whoever gets the chance to have him in their life knows what a awesome lil man they are getting 🧡

Story
Blizzy was born to a friend with multiple litters and was raised by a full family with 2 large dogs, 2 other cats, and a newborn all the way to 10months. Blizzy is the best family house cat. Blizzy comes to her name, knows when feeding time is, and consistently uses her litter box. She loves kids and can’t get enough pets from them. She looks to dogs and cats for affection by rubbing her face with theirs. She is fine laying down in your lap, or playing with lasers, feathers, and anything that moves like a mouse would! She has a unique short tail as well as a unique coat coloring. Shes a blondie and certainly acts like it sometimes, but all of the time she’s a sweet girl!

Story
Me and my roomate acquired Biscuit a month or 2 ago. We have 3 other cats in the home and he was given to us because he didn’t have a good home before and we wanted to give him some thing better, but we’ve had issues with him a lot recently snd can’t keep up with him, he needs a home where he can be watched over and trained properly. he likes being around other cats. Very social as well!
