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
This is Hiccup. He's almost 2 years old (I pretend his birthday is May 1st). I got him as a kitten and he really helped ease my anxiety with graduate school. He loves being around people, and he actually has some separation anxiety when left alone for periods of time. That's the reason I'm choosing to re-home him. I love him endlessly, but I work in-person 5 days a week and I know I'm not giving him the time and attention he deserves. He really is the sweetest, dorkiest thing. His favorite toys are pom poms and pipe cleaners. He behaves more like a dog than a cat. He comes when I call his name and races to the door when I get home to greet me with some meows and cuddles. I'm looking for families/people who work from home to help him with his anxiety. He will come with all his toys, a cat tree, scratching post, litter box, and automatic feeder. All free to a good home. Hiccup loves his person, and I'm sure he will give his next person as much comfort, laughs, and love as he did me.

Story
Val is about 3 years old. I adopted her from The Humane Society in New Mexico. She has the most adorable meow. It's not what you would expect to come out of such a sweet little cat. She does not like to be picked up or held but she will sit in your lap if you are watching a movie and will lay ontop you while you sleep. She loves to sit in a window and watch the world go by. She seeks out the sun for a place to nap and also loves the warmth from the fireplace. She will entertain herself if you're too busy to play as she loves to chase her tail. She likes to follow me from room to room as she prefers to not be alone. She does get along with other cats but it takes a while. Most of her life she's lived with another cat but she's been able to rule the house on her own since February when her sister moved out with my son. I'll be traveling most of June and July and preparing to move in August. I feel it is too much to put her through to move across the country again.
