Story
Jovi is about a year old, and she was dropped off with two of her siblings on our farm. She is the sweetest cat and is very needy, so if you love cuddly cats she’s the one for you. She’ll sleep on the bed all night as well. The only thing is she’s pregnant, and about due. We scheduled her spay appointment a week too late and so is our other cat, which is why we can’t take care of two litters of kittens right now as we’re in the process of moving. We love her so much, but she’s just not happy in our new home because we can’t spend as much time with her. She loves dogs (though she may be wary at first), is comfortable around big farm animals and doesn’t kill chickens since she was raised with them. If you can take care of her and need a companion full of little companions, she’s the one for you!

Story
His name is Tank and he is about 6 years old. Tank is a very quiet cat that keeps to himself. He mostly prefers to just hang out in the same room as you. He was one from a litter of my Grandpas cats that I have been taking care of, but he has since passed so we have to find a good home for him. He is an indoor only cat and we would like him to go to the same type of home.

Story
Chloe has been with me and my little dog (who she sleeps with often) and 2 other cats since she was a kitten in 2019. She loves her tower and scratching posts. She's a very lovable cat! I live alone so not sure how she is with others, she does hide when others visit. She's about 12 lbs. I love her so this is difficult for me, I want her to go to a home where she will be loved and cared for.

Story
These girls are such sweet loving girls. They are 6 and 7 years old. They have been together their entire lives so I need them to be adopted together. They are very sweet and cuddly. They want alllll of your attention. Our lives have changed drastically over the past 6 months and I am unable to give them the love, care and attention they deserve. We are also moving in the next few weeks and we can't have cats in that home.

Story
Meet Rose, with her slender body and big orange eyes. She was found pregnant after being abandoned from a hoarding situation. She is a bit timid at first, but then blossoms into a sweet cuddle bug. She would do best in a quiet home, but feels comfortable around other cats. We believe this sweet gal deserves to have a family were she can be spoiled and loved. Could you be the family she has been waiting for? Rose has been FeLV tested, spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, flea/tick treated, and microchipped.

Story
Mantis - male DOB 3-1-2021. Mantis and his 4 litter mates came from a hoarding situation so they haven't been socialized much. In the time they have been with us, they have made a lot of progress from bouncing off walls to letting us pet them. With more work and love the Furious Five (from Kung Fu Panda) won't be so furious. As a long term resident, his adoption fee is discounted to $42.50!
