Story
Millie is a 7 year old my husband rescued a few years ago. We have another cat and 2 dogs (one being a husky). She gets along well with the cat and tolerates the smaller dog but is terrified of our husky. Due to this she refuses to leave our basement and tensions only increase no matter what we try to make the situation better. We hate to rehome her because she is such a sweet girl. However she deserves a home she feels comfortable and can thrive in.

Story
This little Kittens we lovingly call MilkyChin and Ninji. They were a little surprise when we rescued their Mama, Persephone. Born June 2nd of this year. They are weaned, eating wet and dry foods. They are litterbox trained and used to a variety of litters including: clay, zeolite, pine pellets, and tofu.Milkychin a bit shy at first, but very sweet, and loves to play once she warms up. Ninji is more confident and very much loves to play, being the one to intiate it. She especially loves "sneak attacks", and settles down with cuddles (she has been known to wrestle Milky, then play with my hair followed by curling up on my shoulder for sleepy snuggles). I would love to see them find a good home together, but its not required.We have a full home, and can unfortunately not care for anymore cats and kittens.Rehoming for $40 each kitten, $65 for both kittens.

Story
Anakin is a gentle 8-year-old tabby who may need a little time to feel comfortable with new people. He often spends his day tucked in his bed and can startle if things are loud or move too quickly. With some soft conversation and a little patience, though, Anakin starts to come forward and show his affectionate side. He’ll reach out to sniff your hand, bump against it, and eventually nudge your hand for more pets. Anakin would do best in a home without children where he can enjoy a calm environment and take things at his own pace. He has lived with both cats and dogs and could potentially share his home with them again. Give this sweet boy a little time to settle in, and he may be a wonderful, affectionate companion.

Story
Bellatrix is a sweet 9-year-old girl who knows how to make herself at home. She spends her days out in her room and is happy to greet visitors with flops, rolls, and friendly bumps. She loves rubbing her face and body against you, so if you’re looking for an affectionate companion, Bellatrix is ready to make herself known! Bellatrix would do best as the only pet in her home, where she can have all the attention to herself. She has lived with children before and could do so again. A home where she can relax, soak up attention, and be the center of someone’s world could be a great fit for this affectionate girl.

Story
Jimmy is a sweet boy with a quirky personality. He’s timid, independent, a little skittish around new people but he has a sweet disposition. He is a big boy weighing 11 pounds. He loves laying in the cat window hammock and enjoys playing outside. He tolerates our dog, but it has taken a long time for him to like her. He would do best with a dog that doesn’t really care about him or one without a dog. He plays well with our two cats. He does well with the litter box (he prefers his own if there are other cats and likes it to be clean frequently). Jimmy would make a great cat for anyone who wants family :)  ##2149528##

Story
Cali is approximately 7 years old and we adopted her from a rescue in St Petersburg Florida, she moved with us up to Michigan from multiple apartments and eventually our house.She is very affectionate with the person she chooses in the home, and has potential to be affectionate to everyone in the household, but unfortunately my wife is allergic to cats so we never really found out. She was very protective of me though however. Sits by the bathroom doors, follows me to each room and genuinely loves love.She is skittish, and tends to hide most of the time when people visit. If you approach her too casually, she has bitten people in the past and generally hates carriers in the past. She is a 1 person cat in our experience and is generally low maintenance but does demand the attention of her "favorite."With the birth of our son, and my attention diverted, she isn't receiving that same level of attention she needs and has been doing subtle things like chewing bottle nipples and pump parts.
