Story
Her name is Jersey . She is a is a very quiet, independent cat. She loves to play around the house. She also enjoys watching TV or any games you provide for her on the tablet. She loves the lights in the house. She hates noises in the house, so you are more than likely to see her run away to hide. Jersey is very noisy; she will be at the windows watching everything that is happening outside. She hates wet meals over dry meals, but I stick with dry ones because it's more safe. Jersey is very kind; she will go around the house with you to protect you. She knows how to welcome people into the house. Super cute and exciting cat. Dry meals work best. She loves toys. Please take care of her. She came from New Jersey, where she used to be mistreated until she starved. I took her to be her best mom in the world, but with my schedule, I won't have enough time to show her the affection she deserves, and I want to trust someone with a big heart to love her and accept all of her fl

Story
I am Moonbeam a quiet settled guy of 10+ yrs. I tend to lay low during the day and am more active in the evening especially dinner time. I was shy when I first arrived at my foster home which includes 3 other cats from young to older than me. I'm not a huggy kissy guy - ew! but I will come for regular pets and visits, I'm being treated for my thyroid which is not unusual at my age. I take my liquid meds fine with my meal. I'm happy with Fancy Feast Turkey flavors and little dry food too. I'd best in a quiet house, where I can settle in to my routine and not be started by loud noise.. Older kids and other cats are fine as long as they are kind and can give me a bit pf space.

Story
Meeko is a sweet boy that needs an experienced and patient adopter in a quiet home with no other pets or children. Meeko is very friendly and loving but is always on alert due to a traumatic past and has exhibited some aggressive behavior when scared. He will need medication for vet visits and patience to gain your trust. He is blind in one eye but we’ve been told it is painless.

Story
We are looking to re-home our 1 1/2 year old cat, Tyson. He is a very lovable and playful cat and has lot of energy. We are re-homing him because we have an elderly cat which he is showing dominance towards. We wish to re-home him with someone who has children and/or a child over the age of 10. He gets along well with dogs however he does not get along with other cats so we would not place him in a home with other cats. Tyson is spayed and is up to date with his shots. We would like to ensure he is in the right home where he can explore and have lots of attention and playtime.
