Story
Meet Asher, a sweet and gentle boy looking for a new loving home. He can be a little shy at first, but with a little time he warms up and shows just how affectionate and loving he truly is. We are unfortunately needing to rehome him due to our infant having allergies, and our priority is finding Asher a safe home where he can be loved and cared for the way he deserves. Asher would do best with someone kind and patient who will give him a little time to adjust to a new environment. Once he feels comfortable, he’s such a sweet companion. 🐱🧡 If you are interested in giving Asher a loving home, please message me for more details.

Story
This is Oliver, a very sweet boy looking for a loving new home. He can be a little timid when first meeting new people like most cats, but once he warms up he is incredibly gentle, affectionate, and loves being around his humans. Unfortunately, we have to rehome him due to our infant having allergies, and we want to make sure Oliver finds a home where he can get all the love and attention he deserves. He would do best with someone sweet who will give him a lot of love — once he’s comfortable his personality really shines. Please message me if you’re looking for a life long best friend who loves to cuddle and play!🧡

Story
CC (short for Captain Cow) had been wandering around our property in the country for a while. We originally thought he was a wild stray or a barn cat. The winter before last, we came home to see bloody paw prints on our front porch. We found him and took him inside. We placed him in our mudroom with a heater, a bed, and some food and water. The pad of his foot was badly cut, his eyes were so crusty he could barely see, and his ears appeared infected. We took him to the vet the next day. In addition to the pad, he had ear mites and was FIV+. The vet also estimated he was about 15 years old and was likely a family pet abandoned in the country. This was due to how friendly and tolerant he was while the vet worked on him. Since he is FIV+ he has to remain separate from our own cats. He is incredibly loving and just wants attention that we cannot provide. He would do best in a single cat home or with an owner knowledgeable of FIV. He must also remain an indoor only cat.

Story
Super affectionate with people and other cats. Noot is looking for a loving forever home. He was a an outdoor cat who was picked up as part of a catch and release, neutered, given his shoots, and released back. He started hanging around my house for food and love. Eventually he started trying to come inside when it was really cold or raining. Now he wants to stay inside the vast majority of the time, however, my daughter has a cat allergy and we already two cats that make her allergies hard enough to handle. He is flea treated, kept up on vaccines, and the sweetest guy. He would do best as a mostly indoor cat who could get some outdoor time, even if just a catio. Litter trained and not picky with food.

Story
Hi! I'm Elvis. What if you had spent your whole life living in a junk yard? You might look a little rough around the edges too, but Elvis here, the former "king of the yard" has mellowed and is ready for a new bright happy life at home. Literally walked up and asked his caretaker to get him the heck outta there--- and here he is. He is calm and collected, because he is such a cool cat! He will be soft and beautiful in no time and wants to meet a quiet, settled new family. Is it you?
