Story
Tyson is a kitten we found literally in a dumpster while we were going down the highway! My son and daughter yelled mom look there’s a kitty in the trash and sure enough on top of a pallet was a 4 to 5 week old kitten, crying on the top of a pallet in a huge industrial dumpster. Needless to say we brought Tyson home. He is a wonderful little boy. He’s fully ready to be adopted. He is neutered, vaccinated, and microchip. He is currently in Harrison, Arkansas, but could be brought to you via the rescue network transport. If you’re interested, please contact by email jetta.elliott@att.net.August 9, 2026, 7:58 pm

Story
Banshee came to me at 8 weeks old from a friend whos cat had a litter of kittens. She was born November 20, 2019. Banshee was diagnosed with FHS in September of 2025 and has had increased aggression with our dog and other cats. We believe that she would be best suited to a single pet household and no children as she can be unpredictable sometimes. She loves to hunt, play, squeak, window watch, and can be a very goofy girl. She can also sometimes be very affectionate.

Story
Meet Hiccup, she was semi feral when she came to the shelter and it has taken a while for her to trust us. She now is curious about what the fuss is all about and is very receptive to human touch. She is still skittish, but with patience and time she will learn to love and trust her new owner. If you would like to give Hiccup a place to call her own, please fill out our online adoption application to claim this beautiful girl at https://form.jotform.com/90716677906166

Story
Frank is the sweetest boy you can imagine. He loves everyone dogs, kids, other cats. Vet estimated between five and seven years old. He has a bob tail. He is fixed and up to date with his shots. Frank weighs in at a whopping 18 pounds. He was kept in a duffle bag in a homeless encampment in downtown LA and fed very unhealthy food. He is now on a diet but does not need prescription food. If you have other cats, you need to monitor his mealtimes because he will eat anything left down. His rescuer prefers to stay indoors, though he does love the balcony at his foster home. Frank will be making the journey to CT and Maine at the end of June, where he will have a better chance of finding a home. Let’s give this precious boy the loving home he deserves!
