Story
Had him since he was kitten, as he is the son of another cat I own. He is incredibly friendly, lovable and also a bit of an idiot, which adds to his charm. He is 3 years old and loves thigh/butt pats. A great family pet, I'm only putting him up for adoption due to personal circumstances preventing me from taking care of him. Looking for a home where he will be shown plenty of love and affection.

Story
Pixar wandered up to my house and took to living under the porch. When it got cold and rainy I couldn't just keep walking past her every day. She is /very/ sweet but timid with people. Unfortunately, she does not seem to get along with other animals, though to be fair, as I have not had her tested for feline leukemia or FIV, and I have other cats in the house, I have not really facilitated interactions between Pixar and the other cats and dogs. The reason I have named her Pixar is because her eyes are so big, it looks as though she were animated by a Pixar illustrator :)

Story
Sylvia was surrendered when her owner went into a nursing home and the family couldn't keep her. She's a senior cat and, common in older cats, Sylvia has mild chronic kidney disease (CKD). She also takes anti anxiety medication daily, mixed in with her food. You wouldn't know she's a senior cat though from the energy with which she plays with toys. She will seek you out for play time, pets, and to get brushed. She'll tell you when you stopped brushing her too soon. We're looking for an experienced adopter. She will need time and patience for her to get comfortable with you before you can see her sweet and playful side.

Story
Bebop (grey) and rocksteady (brown) are bonded, 7-year-old, domestic shorthair brothers. They are sweet and little timid at first, but become big snugglers very quickly. Both Bebop and Rocksteady have funny quirks that make them even more lovable. Bebop sneezes loudly & Rocksteady has a tilt in his neck that he has had since he was a kitten. It kind of just looks like he’s always saying, “huh?” They stick together and are territorial around other cats so it is important that they are the only pets in the home. They have no history of being hostile or territorial to humans. Unfortunately, when we took them in, they did not get along with our roommates cats. Despite our intentions, our living situation is not good for them. They have been isolated to our room while the other cats roam free as to keep the peace but this is no way for them to live. We want them to go to a loving home where they can walk freely and snuggle without fear!

Story
Grimlin, Grim for short, is about 7 months old. He’s a very energetic, playful, and cuddly kitty. He’s absolutely loves pets and crawling into your lap and stealing all of your attention. We’re rehoming him because unfortunately he’s too talkative for us, he won’t keep you up at night, but he will go insane during and around mealtime. He is good with other cats, so if you already have cats and are looking for another he will likely be a good addition to the house.

Story
Eloise is a special loving high energy pet. She will not let you pick her up yet she cuddles and kisses you on her own terms. I have recently experienced some behavior issues involving moving furniture around or having guests visit. She shows aggressive behavior toward me only! She loves to be brushed and look out windows. Maybe she would be happy outside. Eloise has only been an indoor cat. Please somebody take her❤️🙏
