Story
Auora is a 3 1/2-year-old tuxedo cat with thumbs. She was rescued off a fuel tank on a truck that had come from a work site as a 6-week-old kitten left alone. Aurora is super loveable and likes to be a lap cat and will sleep on your chest if you let her. Her favorite toy to play with is a Q-Tip and she also has been taught to play fetch. She can be vocal at feeding time as well. She comes from a home that had an adult and a teenager. Unfortunately, she is stressed being in recently blended home that has young children with lots of noise and another older cat. The home has a kitten which she plays with and interacts well with. The older cat and her do not get along and she is showing signs of stress due to the young children and an older cat. She can be the most affectionate cat in a home with adults or adults and teenagers.

Story
Hello, my name is Tiger and I am a sweet boy who is shy at first but has really opened up since neuter. I was found as a stray covered in ticks but I am now fully vetted and ready to find my forever home. Im an adult and I'm a tabby so those are two factors that may make it very hard for me to find my person. Most go for the more outgoing kittens. But I can show you just how lovey I can be! I come fixed, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and fiv/felv tested negative.

Story
Hi! My name is Raush. I was found as a stray after a suspected toss from a car. I had road rash on my face and paws which I have healed wonderfully from. The previous experience meeting the pavement left me with a permanently pouty lip. Its a cute and unique feature for me. I love to be pet and very food motivated. I get along with other animals. I come fixed, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and fiv/felv tested negative.

Hello, My name is Bear and I am a sweet male ringtail cat who loves to be loved on. I was bottle raised so super people oriented. My tail curls over my back like a husky dog. Its super unique, our rescue has only had two other ringtailed cats. I come neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and fiv/felv tested negative.

Story
Jo (black and white, medium hair), Dun (grey and white with part of his nose bridge gray, short hair) and Ned (other gray and white, short hair) are litter mates from a litter a stray had on our porch 9/21/25, and are all boys. We brought them all in and have been shaping these little guys into amazing kittens. They all love to be held and to play, all are eating great, and all use the litter box without issue. They are now 9 weeks old and need happy furever homes with responsible pet parents - they sooooo deserve it! They have been introduced to our 5 house cats and dog without any issues and handled like crazy by my youngest so they are pretty chill with most things! They do not have to go together. Their current names came from my daughters (who are Twenty-One Pilots fans and named them all after something from that subject).
