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.

Cheeto is a loving young kitten 11 months old. Found on a back porch. Fixed, shots and chipped. Hes ready for a loving home, with or without kids. He just likes to cuddle. Gets along with our lab and our 3 female cats. We've had him since we grabbed him off the porch. Worked to get him liter trained and to live with other animals. He's precious and follows me everywhere.

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!
