Story
Meet Deedee 🩷 It breaks my heart to write this, but I’m looking for a special home for my sweet boy. I’ve had him since he was a kitten, and he’s been loved by our family for over seven years. This is not a decision I’ve made lightly, I want the best for him. Deedee is affectionate once he trusts you. He loves cuddling with me and my husband, staying close to his people, and greeting respectful visitors. He’s calm and independent, and prefers not to be picked up or handled unless he chooses it. He does best when given space and allowed to approach on his own terms. Deedee would thrive in an adult-only home or with older, cat-savvy children. Since having a baby, we’ve learned he isn’t comfortable with little hands reaching for him and has bitten when approached. A quiet, peaceful home would be ideal. I’m looking for a patient, experienced adopter who will respect his boundaries and give him time to settle in. In return, he offers loyalty, affection, and so much love.

Story
Moe came into our lives several years ago. (2019?) He is a sweetheart that enjoys napping in the sun, drinking from the faucet and a bit of wet food every afternoon. He's tolerated our toddler girls for the last 4 years and will want some snuggles at night or while you are using the bathroom. He enjoys the scratch after eating and a scratch behind the ears, while you're watching TV. Moe likes a window spot for watching wildlife and the occasional jaunt outside to roll in the grass.

Story
Rick is a very friendly, playful cat. He loves food, and playing with other cats. Very cuddly and lays with you. He is 7 months old. He has some litter training issues. He goes poop in the box, but pees on the floor at times. He is very sweet. Not very good with dogs. He runs away. Our hope is he goes to a multi-cat household preferably with no dogs, or at least calm dogs. He often sleeps with our other cat. He was born in the house he is currently kept in. So we have kept him here. He has never been allowed outside. He does not have any shots or a microchip.

Story
I adopted Psion from the Humane Society. She is 3 years old, spayed, fully vaccinated, and microchipped. She is an intelligent, independent cat who bonds deeply with her chosen person. While she isn't a lap cat, she enjoys quietly following her human from room to room and keeping them company. She's also an excellent mouser and has a wonderful maternal instinct toward kittens.I'm looking for a calm, adult home with someone who appreciates cats that value their independence. She does best with predictable routines and an owner who understands feline body language. She can become overstimulated during play and is happiest when her boundaries are respected. She has not done well living with my senior dog, so she would likely thrive as an only pet or with a carefully matched feline companion. My goal is simply to find the home where she'll be happiest and understood for who she is.

Story
Meet Ember, a sweet, cuddly lovebug Torbie who will seamlessly fit into your family life. She is 3 years old and her favorite things are snuggling while we watch TV, playing with cotton balls and pompoms, cuddles and pets at bedtime, watching birds out the window, and churu treats. She is great with kids and will thrive in a predictable, calm, indoor only, one-cat household with an experienced and patient cat owner who can limit stress.Earlier this year, Ember's relationship with her littermate and sister drastically changed when her sister began showing aggression toward her daily. Our hearts are broken, but Ember deserves a home where she can thrive.This stress caused idiopathic cystitis, which will resolve - once the cause of stress is taken away. (Much diagnostic testing shows no underlying health issues.) I'm happy to answer any questions about this. Ember will provide you as much joy and love as she has for us. She has a multitude of amazing qualities. Please reach out.
