Story
Urgent rehoming! This is Layla. She is very sweet. She loves to cuddle 💘. Also loves every single human she's ever met! She was originally adopted from petsmart so she has all her vaccinations! She would prefer to be in a 1 cat household. I am currently fostering her and I had no idea she wouldn't react well to my other cats. She is afraid of my other 7 rescue cats. This caused fights, so I have her separated now. She deserves to be in a loving forever home but our local shelter is completely full, so I wanted to get the word out on here. There will be a small rehoming fee just to be safe. Thanks!

Story
She is so sweet and the mostly cuddly and outgoing cat you’ll ever meet! She will sleep with you every night and always want to be on your lap! Unfortunately, due to change in housing I am no longer the best person to have her and am looking for someone who will love her as much as I do!

Story
I adopted my cat because I feared what a previous owner may do to him. I have never had a cat before and already have a dog that is reaching senior age. The previous owner I met a few times and mentioned throwing the cat into the street and although I knew nothing about cats I couldn’t bare knowing and not take the cat. Gin ks so sweet and has all the quirks of a typical orange cat. He loves to cuddle and even licks at times. He is good with people and is very calm. I’ve never really had any problems from him. He’s in perfect health and it’s about 2 1/2 years old. I am relocating and want to find him a great home. I wish i could take him but with my dog who is a senior and my already busy work/travel schedule I feel guilty leaving him alone so often.

Story
Nico (or Nala, her government name) is about 6 years old. We believe she has been a stray her entire life. She’s very sweet and social with humans. She’s extremely talkative and food motivated. She still has her claws and is not afraid to use them, but she doesn’t bite or scratch often; she will only get defensive if she thinks you’re invading her personal space. If you work with your hands, be careful of having her nearby as she will headbutt them in an attempt to receive pets.

Story
Callie is roughly 1.5 years old. I found her roughly 6 months ago and she was pregnant. I decided to keep her on my property to ensure she was fed and safe. She had the kittens and they were rehomed. I now need a home for Callie. She is everything a person could want. She is very chill and adapts to any situation. She lets you hold her, grab her and handle her however you want. She meows rarely. She loves being inside but can go outside and will return home whenever she wants to. SHE LOVES FOOD. She could endlessly eat. She doesn't play with toys much but may if you work with her on it. She doesn't scratch at furniture or anything.

Story
Roosevelt is a big, lovable lap cat, but he gets stressed out around other pets. Roosevelt needs to be rehomed because he is not getting along with his brother and needs to be in a quiet environment where he doesn't need to share affection with anyone else. If you're looking for a 15lb fur baby, then look no further than this chunky hunk!
