Story
Wesley has a mild temperament free of extreme personality traits. He is not overly affectionate nor terribly skittish. Wesley exudes an air of intelligent laid-back mystique. He gets a kick out of playing in cardboard boxes and gets a charge out of chasing leaves. Wesley rolls over to be petted, does not mind being picked up and held as long as you have the muscles to hold this big boy! He tolerates combing and nail trims pretty well! Wesley gets vocal when in a pet carrier. He is reserved and bashful in a new environment. Wesley gets anxious when taken away from his comfort zone. Wesley's ideal home is with an individual, couple or family. He should do okay as an inside/outside kitty. Wesley is a 7-year-old American Shorthair with a black coat. He is large, weighing in at 14 pounds! To submit Wesley's adoption application, copy and paste the link: Adoption Application for Feral Feline Coalition

Story
Blossom is friendly, intelligent and has a sociable nature. She will engage with her human companion expressing affection by rubbing up against your legs and communicating with "meows!" In the beginning Blossom will be shy around new people and easily frightened of strange noises in her new environment but should overcome the timidness quickly with petting and handling her in a tender manner. Blossom is okay with being held in your arms and will rest on your lap for a short period of time. She takes to scratching away on a cat scratching post. Blossom's ideal home is with an individual, couple or family; she is accustomed to being around children. Blossom should do well with another cat; she showed sweet motherly tenderness to her kittens. Blossom is not enthusiastic about dogs; it may take a slow and proper introduction to accept a canine. She is a 2-year-old American Shorthair that bloomed into a silver tiger tabby pattern, a round face, stocky body and thick coat. Blossom will keep flowering if you love her! Her adoption fee is $70.

Story
Waker is jazzed up in spirit and vigor and charms his human companion. He is aware of his surroundings and attentive. Waker has qualities that tend to make you love him . . . he is charming and likeable. Waker is street-smart, sophisticated and has logical instincts -- traits where he could be an inside/outside kitty. A home with a catio is perfect!  Waker can be relaxed inside the home -- he will stretch out on the sofa, rest near you and make use of his litterbox, however, Waker will get a craving for the sun to shine on his back and the wind to blow his fur as he has a desire to have his paws on grass or dirt! Waker will make his human companion aware when he is ready for nature-time by meowing and hollering at the window! Note: The applicant's outside environment must be considered to keep Waker safe from hazards.   His ideal home is with an individual or couple. Waker should be okay with other cats and cat-friendly dogs. He is a 1-year-old brown American Shorthair with a tiger tabby patten and flaunts a white locket and white mittens. Waker last weighed in at 10.7 pounds -- ounces short of being a large kitty. His adoption fee is $75.

Story
Meet a Bob, or Mr. Bob as some calls him. Bob was adopted out of an animal shelter in Texas. He has traveled all the way to Mississippi with his owner. Bob is a loving and playful adult cat, he thinks he’s a kid sometimes and acts like one. He thinks he runs the house and not you. Bob likes the outdoors, but he cannot go out without a leash he has no claws. He has been declawed so he cannot defend himself if he gets out, He has been an indoor cat since his adoption three years ago he loves to cuddle and lay with you. He likes to sleep with you. Bob likes to drink water out of a faucet, although I have gotten him a water fountain pet bowl he used it for a while and still rather drink from a faucet. I am slowly breaking him from that and put his water bowl on the bathroom counter next to the sink cause that’s where he likes to drink his water. he does love his catnip and his laser light. He is four years old, so he still has a lot of life to him. He loves attention.
