Arya is 2 years old. We caught her as an outside wild kitten. I have 6 kids so she does well with children. She’s been around a dog and other cats so she would fine in a home with other animals. She is a very calm and loving cat. She is a lap cat when she’s in the mood for it.

Luci is very loving and sweet. She takes a minute to warm up but is the most loving cat to even some strangers. She is 4 years old and has a sister named Bella. I would like them to stay together if possible.

Story
I received this cute boy back in October 2021, at 4 months old. His birthday is June 29, 2021 making him a little over 2.5 years old. Rocco is a very sweet and stubborn boy. Born as the sole survivor of his litter, he develops big attachments. He is super energetic and requires lots of one on one play time throughout the day! I require a home with a lot of knowledge and experience with cats because patience is the #1 thing Rocco needs. He has been in a home with other cats and a dog. He can be very antagonistic but also playful. Rocco does better with dogs than cats, I can imagine he would not do very well with children as he gets overwhelmed. Cuddles in bed are his favorite! He has a strong sense of boundaries and will let you know when he does and doesn't want pets. Rocco has never had an accident outside of his litter box. Very sweet boy who just needs a better structure than I can offer. Most importantly, he works very long hours at the biscuit making factory.

Meet Ozzy a very sweet, loving cat that mostly minds to himself and loves to lay next to you. We can no longer keep Ozzy due to my son having allergic asthma and is exacerbated by dog and cat hair. We would love to see him go to a loving home.
