Story
Moo is a 4 year old female who we rescued as a kitten in Trenton, NJ. She is a very loving cat and is motivated by food. Our family loves her very much and wants to make sure she finds a good home. She loves cuddling and sleeping. Recently she has had an issue with territorial peeing. The vet offered jealously of our daughter and also the detection that I am pregnant again.

We are seeking to rehoming our cat phoenix due some life issues my husband and I are going through. He is a 10 year old cat who sleeps all day, loves to cuddle, and is extremelly affectionate. He's perfect for those seeking a calm cat who's gonna be there for you emotionally. He's trained and obey perfectly, does not scratch any furniture, and does not require any special needs. He's a healthy cat who gets along with dogs, other cats, and kids. 🙂

Wonderful cat. Sweet as can be and will come up to anyone for love. He’s been my companion for the last 7yrs, but due to circumstances I am unable to care for him anymore. I know there may be some medical issues that i unfortunately cannot afford due to life circumstances that have recently occurred and I need to rehome Luna to someone who can take care of him the way he deserves. I will provide food as well as litter. He is box trained and is an indoor cat as well his whole life. As I said he is sweet loving and loves every person he sees. He deserves the best and unfortunately I am unable to give him the best he deserves. The 30 dollars is going towards the food and the box of litter I recently purchased

Story
I’m sorry but only serious applicants only as they’re a bonded pair & I would hope to get updates whenever the next owner felt comfortable. My cats are COVID babies so they only know me as a WFH parent so ideally they’d need at least one person at home throughout the day (especially Trevor who gets really anxious). They’re also really spoiled when it comes to attention & playtime which is why they need loving and affectionate parents. Both are at least 3 yrs old, never been past an enclosed balcony, and will do great with children that are nice to them. Honestly, idk how to sum up my cats other than the best you could welcome into your home. They don’t give me any issues and will make you a better person instead. Although, I have to rehome them due to my own health issues, I’d hope if the new parents change their mind or anything happens that they’d return them to me.
