Story
Covie is a very sweet cat. She loves to cuddle and drool on you. She will follow you around and meow for your attention. We acquired Covie through someone on Nextdoor that was needing to rehome her because of personal reasons. We love animals and thought she would just fit right in. Unfortunately, she is very anxious around a busy environment and other animals. We have 4 boys, 2 other cats, and a dog. She hasn’t adjusted well and stays hidden away most of the day and night. She doesn’t get along with other animals. She’s not aggressive toward them at all, but rather stays hidden away. After a long time and careful consideration it’s clear she is not living her best life here with us. She needs a quieter and calmer environment with no other pets. There is nothing medically wrong with her that we are aware of. We are not 100% sure of her age (she’s around 5 yrs old), and she will need to be seen by a Vet for updated shots and exam.

Story
We found Rhea in Orlando, Florida while on vacation in March. We realized she was pregnant and we brought her all the way home to Maryland so that we could give her a safe place to birth and raise her babies. Now, all of her babies are weened and in their forever homes. Mama Rhea still needs her forever home! She is up to date on her shots and she has a clean bill of health. She is a beautiful cat with white/gray fur and bright blue eyes. She is likely a Point Lynx Siamese cat, given her markings and coloring. She has a very bold personality and is extremely playful and vocal. The adoption fee of $50 will help to cover her pregnancy vet bills, health check-up, vaccinations, food and supplies.

Story
I got my kitty Stormi in 2020 from a neighbor whose cat had kittens they couldn’t keep. I raised Stormi from feeding her formula to dry cat food. She’s a sweet cat, she has her boundaries and quirks but she is a good cat. I don’t want to rehome her but unfortunately my family needs to move and the house that is best fitted for us won't allow cats. I am looking for someone who has experience with cats to make my kitty’s life as easy as comfortable and loving as possible. I don’t want a profit from her, I just want someone who’s willing to take care of her and treat her well. She’ll come with two bowls, whatever food we have left, her cat tree, and even a cat backpack and leash. If your interested please text me, I’’ll be more likely to reply to that!

Story
Her name is Beans, she’s a one year old tortoiseshell American shorthair. She’s very sassy and independent but loves to talk. She’s extremely aggressive and does not do well with other animals and people in general. She loves to climb (on stuff AND people) and likes to chew on string. We thought we could take care of her but her behavior is too erratic, even after getting spayed, so a more experienced cat owner is definitely a better fit for her. She prefers wet food over dry food but will eat it if it’s mixed. She’s not a fan of bells and chimes and likes string and feathers better.

Story
My son brought Tobi home because he was 1 of 2 kittens in a friend's litter. He is now 10, and very well fed and loved. He is a lap cat and kind to kids and people. Reason He was my son's cat, but my son has moved out and I work too far away. I also hope to move out of the area soon so it's best I find a good family or home for him. Adjectives that describe your pet: A lap cat, very affectionate, eats well, likes to go in the yard but never runs away from home. He does shed but is good with kids and strangers. Best Qualities Happy and calm but not aloof. Cute/funny quirks Thinks he is a dog and will run outside with you, but only if it's evening. Special toys or treats that they love Balls with jingle bells, the feather in a stick, scratching posts
