Story
Kapha and Pitta were showed up together at a rural home in Ohio in the fall of 2017. Both thought to be less than a year old, I tried to help find a home for them and eventually became their home. When I had to leave Ohio in 2022, I had to ask friends to take them in and thankfully found a temporary home, but now that home will no longer be available. I would be delighted if they could find a home together. Kapha, the big boy, enjoys heavy flops, chest cuddles, sleeping between legs, and giving chase to laser pointers, feathers, and friends. He loves to eat. In 2020, he had urinary crystals, but has been on prescription food since and has not had problems. Pitta is the sweet but largely aloof princess who will occassionally bless you with cuddles. She prefers warm spots to sit. Both love watching the outdoors and occassionally exploring it if you're open to that.

Story
Sissy was a kitten when brought in from outside by my mother who recently passed away. She is a one person cat who will not come out for anyone but my mother. she hides in an eaves area and will have to be trapped to get her out of the house. She is about 8 yrs old and has been in the house for by herself (I am intermittently there and have her fed when I’m not) for 4 months. She was glued to my mother but will need a lot of work with someone new. Very heartbreaking situation for this cat.

Story
Bitzy is a female cat born on the solar eclipse, April 8, 2024 to a couple of farm cats. We adopted her along with her brother Pickles and welcomed them into our family. Bitzy is a little shy at first but once she gets to know, she’s a sweetheart. She loves to play with toy mouses and wand toys. She’s great with my 4 year old but as it turns out, my daughter is highly allergic and has now developed asthma. We’re hoping Bitzy and Pickles can stay together and find a new family where they’re cherished.

Story
I adopted Charlotte when she was 6 weeks old and she was born into a foster situation. She is now 3. She is very sweet and timid. She has lived with dogs. It takes her a couple days to come around them but she is then fine. She loves to sit on your lap and be pet. You can clip her nails with no problem and she only scratches furniture when her nails are long. She is a great family cat.
