Story
Jack was found roaming outside in OTR. He is a lover boy and just wants to be cuddled with all day! He is incredibly loving and not skittish or nervous in new situations. The vet says he is about one year old. He is not microchipped. We are happy to get him neutered and up-to-date on his shots if his adopter is willing to pay for it.

Story
Hi my name is pumpkin, I am a very loveable and playful cat, I like kids and I like to play with my toys especially the balls with sound, I like to cuddle up with you and let you pet me,I am in great health and my shots are up to date, my owner liked to trim my front claws hold me with love and I'll let you as long as you give me a treat for being good. I love to look out windows alot,I eat twice a day and water also, I have been an indoor cat since I was very small I'm not sure how I would do with other cats but I could give it a try, probably not good with dogs. I like to walk around inside and explore my surroundings also. If you pick me you'll enjoy me once you get to know me. I like to play bite your feet sometimes but if that bothers you I will stop. It's just been me and my owner for awhile I'm almost 5 years old. I will promise to be good and always love you, thanks love, pumpkin 😻😺😸

Story
We are heartbroken to be rehoming Mango. We adopted him from CARE 4.5 years ago and he is now about 5. He is a loved member of our house and is a playful guy! He loves to chase toy mice, balls with bells, balls in a track, and scratching posts! He really is a beautiful cat and really loves to snuggle. We have had a hard time with him and our children, as he has been aggressive with them. He is litterbox trained but we believe he has had marking issues due to a dog that was also in the house. We worked hard with our vet to try to make Mango comfortable in our home. I believe a home without kids or dogs that mark and a home that enjoys cat snuggles would be a great fit!

Meet Tulip! This little tux kitten loves chatting and playing like nobody else. She's a wriggle worm who adores playing with people and other cats, and will chat you up whenever she gets the chance. She has the classiest white mittens in town, and eyes that Puss in Boots to shame. Whenever she's not running around or cuddling other cats, she loves lounging in a patch of warm sunlight. If you're looking for a little girl who loves your attention, playtime, and a good treat, Tulip will wriggle herself right into your heart!

Story
When we were ready for new kittens after the loss of our previous kitty, we adopted Gus and Gracie. We thought Gus would be a boy since most orange kitties are, but turned out Gus was a she but we kept the name. We've had them for 8.5 years. They are not a bonded pair. They fight occasionally but otherwise couldn't care less that the other exists. Gus has anxiety issues. Her outlet is over-grooming. Her belly is permanently bald as a result and sometimes she gets sores. We tried a cat dose of Prozac but it didn't work well and was difficult to administer. We use pheromone plugins which seem to help some. A few years ago she stopped using litter boxes. She poops and pees in various places in the house. I've tried so many things and nothing works and I just can't do it anymore. I don't know if it is a territorial thing, but have ruled out health with the vet. I just can't do it anymore. She can be cranky but also can be very loving. I think she would do best in a quiet home.
