Story
The cat lottery distributed Sassy to us when my family member passed away recently. An extra-long, orange gentleman with thumbs on his front paws (polydactyl). He is about 17 years old but by his playful attitude, you would still think he is a kitten. This chatty old guy loves snuggles, scritches and sunbeams. Would love to snuggle up with you on a couch while you watch TV or play fetch when he is feeling spunky. He is very talkative and will let you know when something isn't up to his strict standards, i.e. his kibble bowl is not full enough. Someone who has lots of time to spend with him would be ideal as he is used to a certain lifestyle.

Story
This is Toby. I found him as a ferrule kitten at about 5 months old. It took me several months for me to touch him, then pat him, then let him inside. He was born sometime in September of 2021 (when I first saw him, his mother and siblings) He needs to be the only pet in the house. He does not like other cats, or probably dogs. He is scared of coyote howls, probably from being a kitten outside. He is very affectionate and he loves to chase a string around. He does not go outside, for fear of being hit by a vehicle. I had him neutered in late in 2021. He loves looking out windows and "talking" to birds. He "chirps" more than he meows. I guess it's a ferrule cat thing. I will be moving and now have a job where I may not be home for a few days here and there. I am looking for a good home for him where he can be ruler of the roost.

Story
Oblio, Turbo and Gomez are three brothers from the same litter. They are a year and half old. They’ve never been apart and the cats may only be adopted together. They've all been neutered, none of the three is destructive, and I put them to bed in their room every night at bedtime and they stay quiet until morning. They love chasing each other and get along great with other cats and my grandchildren. They have a catio but haven’t been outside in “the wild”.
