Story
A22083 Jester is a brown tabby colored, approximately 6 to 7-year-old, 4-pound, neutered male, Domestic Short-Haired Cat. He entered the shelter as a stray on 09-19-2024 and was altered by our medical staff. Jester is a friendly, timid, easy to handle boy here at the shelter. Our staff says he is shy and a little afraid at first but starts to purr as you pet him. He loves affection and he did well in the playroom, exploring all cubbies. Jester will be a loyal companion in his new forever home.

He’s such a sweet, loving cuddly guy! He’s very shy but likes to play and his favorite thing to do is nap. We named him Dad because we’re also fostering his kitten😊. We would love to keep him but unfortunately we had unexpected problems come up resulting in us having to give him a new home.

Story
Raven is a sweet cat and very very cuddly. She enjoys being petted and gives a ton of love. She is well trained and goes to the litter box. Her age is 3 years old. Her previous owner passed away unfortunately, and we took her in. A good new home would be anywhere. She is good on her own and may struggle to get along with other animals if not introduced properly. She is very very good with humans. My next home does not allow me to have pets and I need to give her up.

Story
This sweet little girl was abandoned in a cat carrier on the side of a road near our home late one night when the temperature was over 100 degrees with 6 newborn kittens. We have found good homes for all the kittens, but this little mama still needs a forever home. She has obviously experienced some trauma, but seems to really want to have human friends. She loves to play with toys on strings and eat treats from your hands, though it will take some time before she is comfortable with loves from a new person. Once she trusts you, you can pet and play with her. She has been contained to one room in our home, and we don't know how she will get along with other cats, but she seems to tolerate our medium sided dog. She uses the litterbox all the time, and eats both wet and dry food.
