Story
I’ve had her since she was 4 months old, after my roommate stopped caring for her. The application fee is to help pay for the only vaccine she’s due for (rabies). She is incredibly affectionate once she warms up to you. She might be shy at first, but very talkative! Rosie does not mind voicing her opinion. Mostly, she uses her voice to demand for affection and when she wants to play. She needs someone who has the time and capacity to play with her and give her enough stimulation throughout the day. She would love to have someone to play and cuddle with. Once she becomes comfortable enough, she will eventually start licking your nose too. When she learns you like to play with her, she’ll start bringing toys to you throughout the day. She gets along with other pets, but sometimes gets jealous over attention. She is such a sweet girl and deserves someone who can give her the time, care, and affection that she needs.

Story
Gonzo is a very sweet cat we adopted recently. We were told by the shelter he is very good with other cats but that is very far from the case. We have spent almost 2 months trying to socialize him with our other cat with no luck. He is a very good, healthy cat who eats, drinks water, and uses the litterbox great. We would rather find a good home for him instead of sending him back to the shelter as we have the room to keep the cats separated, but this cannot be a permanent solution for any of us. He is loved dearly, but my resident cat needs to remain the priority, he is just not a good fit for us. He is about 7 years old, and I have his vaccination and health screening record. He just needs to be the only cat in the house. I am unsure how he is with dogs, but I personally would not risk it. He is very sweet and loving with humans, so I imagine he would be good with kids. Looking for a home where he will be indoor only. Big cuddler, very playful and sweet.

Story
Porchy was born outside. We found him when he was a small kitten, an age he was supposed to be nursing, so we took him inside so he could nurse off of one of our mother cats. He has been inside ever since, and doesnt seem to have an interest in going back out. Porchy is a very lovey boy, he doesnt know his name so you are welcome to change it. If you can take him, PLEASE DO!! We have tons of other cats we are trying to rehome!

Story
Ranger is very smart and sociable. He loves to play hockey with ice cubes, watch tv from a coffee table, or just follow you around the house. He's an indoor cat. I find that he discovers a way to "talk" to me to let me know what he wants or what he wants to play with. I've never met a more intelligent cat. I love him very much, but I have great difficulty walking and he always wants to walk with me. That translates to he walks around and between my feet as I go, and he then becomes a dangerous trip hazard to me. Falling would be disastrous to me, so I need to let him go to a family that will love and appreciate him. Ranger comes with a Meeowth automatic litter box, toys, cases of canned food, unopened containers of treats, a water fountain and water bowls. He also has an "apartment" that he can sleep in at night with its own litter box and water bowl and bed. It zips closed if you want to have a night without him in your bed or roaming free.
