Story
Hi, I'm Fern! 😺 My mother was abandoned while she was pregnant with us, but she found a home that took her in and raised us. I'm now 6 months old, up to date on shots, neutered, and looking for my forever home. I'm very playful and mischievous, I love to run around and play with toys 🧶 and then curl up beside you for a nap.

Story
Kitty Kai was found in a storm drain near our home July of 2022, she was very thin, malnourished and had obviously had an litter of kittens, and she was scared. I fostered her and got her back to health, had her spayed, de-wormed, shots up to date in July 2023. She is a very patient Cat, the Vets think she was under a year old last July (too early to have a litter). I am estimating her age at 2 years now. She does get up on my lap, often now and especially loves her early morning cuddle/love time. She is kennel trained, and sleeps in a large, 3 shelved playpen. Kitty Kai loves to go outside and be inside both. She is being treated topically every month for fleas/ticks. I have a lot of equipment for her if needed. She is a very sweet and friendly cat with my family but I simply can not take her with me.

Story
These two handsome 3 year old brothers were adopted from a local shelter about a year ago. When being brought to their new home they were extremely nervous. One was out and slowly exploring while the other took his time. Over a couple of weeks they started to warm up to me and the new home. They are very shy to new people. They are both extreme cuddle bugs; after I come home from work one, or both, love to come and use my body as a napping pillow. They absolutely love looking out windows and will watch birds and try to imitate bird noises. When going to pet them they make a little trill noise and lean into the scratches, sometimes to the point they will flop on to the floor for a belly rub. They love feather and string toys as well as batting mouse toys around, and they play with each other too. I am sad to see them go but my soon to be living conditions will not allow them, and I want to make sure they find a good home instead of a shelter.
