Story
🏡 Stanley Is Looking for His Forever Home 🏡 I'm looking to rehome my 11-month-old tuxedo boy, Stanley, located in Lafayette. He is neutered, microchipped, healthy, and super playful. He would likely do best in a home with another young, energetic cat or kitten who can match his activity level. Unfortunately, one of my resident cats has been attacking him, and despite my efforts, the situation isn't improving. He deserves a home where he can feel safe, happy, and loved. Asking a rehoming fee of $40. My priority is finding the right home for him. If for any reason the adoption doesn't work out, I ask that he be returned to me rather than surrendered to a shelter or passed along to someone else. Please message me if you're interested and tell me a little about your home and any pets you currently have. I'd love to find the perfect match for this sweet boy. Serious inquiries only, please. 🐾

Story
We adopted him from the Acadiana Animal Aid and absolutely loved how calm and cuddly he was and still is. He got along great with our other cat who was in need of a friend. I would keep them both but sadly after having twins and both my husbands and I’s schedule becoming hard to manage. Any of our spare time goes to our infants. This leaves our cats with barely any interactions and acting out. Sonny is very lovable and when we have guest over to meet our babies he was the first one to try and be petted, to sit in their laps and etc. he’s very food orientated and because of the lack of attention has been acting out by getting into things that he usually wouldn’t, for instance a 50 dollar formula jar that I then had to throw away. He’s great with my nieces and nephews and has never bitten or scratched them even when they hold him in a non supported way. At the end of the day Sonny just wants to be loved and I fear that in this phase of our life we’re neglecting that need for him.

Story
We found Pumpkin (~3 years old) in a Zeus parking lot with two kittens. We originally planned to rehome the kittens, but quickly fell in love with Pumpkin because she is such a people-person. She is affectionate, cuddly, and loves her humans. I’m rehoming her because I work long shifts and will be starting medical school soon, so I won’t be home enough to give her the attention she deserves. I want her to go to a home where she can get lots of affection and companionship. She greets me at the door, follows me while I make dinner, sits beside me while I eat, and curls up on my chest or side while I watch TV. She loves laps, being picked up, belly rubs, and sleeping between your legs. She’ll also sit at your feet while you work. She is spayed, vaccinated, and had a full dental cleaning May 20, 2026. She gets along with cats, especially males, and enjoys playing with them. Unsure about dogs. She has her claws but uses scratching posts appropriately.

Story
Hi. My name is Teche. I’m named after the bayou that runs through my hometown. Unfortunately, I need to find a new home, because my human can’t keep me any longer. Would you adopt me? I’m almost 5 years old, and I like to cuddle, I like sitting on laps – I even like having my belly scratched. In fact, I may be the most affectionate cat on the planet, but you’ll have to judge for yourself. I’m a big ol’ neutered male, and I’m up to date on my check-ups and shots. I’d really like to be your cat!
