Story
Binx is a very sweet and cuddly kitty, but has some major anxiety issues. He has always been the type of cat to hide from you until he gets to know you. As his owner, he cuddles with my under the blankets most nights, and loves tucking the kids in at night with me. Unfortunately, since a move to a new house and some family changes, Binx has been very unhappy. Since these changes he has been pottying outside of the box. We have tried many different things, but none have made him happy - the vet said that he simply needs a smaller, quieter place to live. We are absolutely heartbroken to give him up - we are all very attached to our Binxy! He truly is an absolute sweetheart. But we also want him to be happy and thrive. We would love updates on how he is doing to whoever takes him in.

Story
Kasey’s mom, Bastet, was a rescue we found outside. She was very small and presumed to be a kitten herself. Shortly after taking her in, she had 4 kittens. Kasey and his brothers Pretzel and Lumi, as well as Artemis, his only sister. Kasey is 6 months old (March 27, 2024). He has lived with my 5 y.o. cat Max and two of his siblings for his whole life. He has a very playful, upbeat, and energetic personality. Extremely affectionate and loves to perch on shoulders, sit on laps, and must have a cuddle buddy when sleeping(cat or person). Neutered and house trained

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
Miss Kitty story; 6 weeks ago my cousin noticed that her elderly next door neighbor had a very young cat & asked where she got it from. She said a friend asked her granddaughter to watch it while they moved. But they never came back for it. This was in August late July. A few weeks later she had a litter of stillborn kittens, ( they didn't know she was pregnant) The grandmother was going to put her outside, but my cousin posted her on Facebook. I knew somebody who was looking for a second cat, so it was arranged for them to take her there. But she attacked the other cat. She would have been giving back my cousin , but she couldn't take it so it would have gone back to the same situation with the grandmother. I stepped in and got her fixed & vetted. She is a little over 1 year old & the sweetest thing when by herself. Wants to fight with our two cats. She is the most loving girl and she's a little thing too just need to find her that furever home
