Story
I received Chat via Facebook before summer began this year. She was around 7 months and should be about 1 year old now. I am looking for a home that will suit Chat’s tendency of the stereotype “Scaredy Cat.” At first, she can be skiddish and fast, but once she gets to know you, she will reassure her affection towards you and will call for you during the day. She is a sweetheart when she knows it’s you and her against the world!

Story
Ginger was adopted from the APA in Saint Louis in July 2025. He was thought to be a little over a year old. He had been there for over a month, left with another cat whom had been adopted. In the shelter, Ginger was very frightened and disengaged. At home, he is curious and playful. He is shy at first, but ok with dogs as long as they don’t chase. Introduction to my resident cat has not gone well, though. Ginger would do best in a quieter home as the only cat.

Story
Mary is very sweet and gentle. She likes to get pets. She does not scratch furniture, and is litter box trained. She will lay on your bed with you or hang out while you do activities. She does not like other cats so works best as a companion cat. She has been living in a basement for the last year so does not get to see the sun as much as she would like. She loves catnip and playing fetch with balls.

Story
Almost 1-year-old Winnie is a beautiful and petite house panther. She really just thinks the world is a little too "peoply." Trapped as a 3-month-old kitten in a feral community, we took a chance on taking her in to see if she could be a house cat, and she CAN! But she's not a fan of the touching. She IS a fan of playing with people holding toys, and even taking treats right out of their hand -- just not the touching, No petting, no petting! She doesn't scratch or bite, she just jumps away and glares at you balefully, until you feel the full shame of trying to mar her royal sleekness with your grubby human paws. Seriously, what were you thinking? Do YOU feel like the world is just a little too "peoply" sometimes, too? Do you enjoy museums, where you can admire beautiful things, and are okay with not being permitted to handle them? Is this persnickety princess your soulmate?
