Story
Looking for a sweet indoor cat to spoil? This little lady was dropped off at my mother-in-laws house this spring. She has been well taken care of, but we cannot keep her as we already have too many cats :) Mini is probably less than 18 months old and about 5.5 lbs. She gets along well with other cats. She's had some exposure to a dog, but he was very old and loved cats; I'm not sure she would do well with a young or very active dog. She's affectionate and would be fine with kids. We took care of all of her healthcare needs. She was spayed and is up to date on all her shots. She tested negative for feline FELV/FIV. All her records are on file with our vet and we'll be able to transfer that info over to your vet. Mini was treated for ear mites, but I think that may still be an issue so she will need to continue with her prescription ear drops (I will provide them). We are happy to bring Mini to you if you live within an hour or so from us (zip code 13081). Thank you!

Minnie is very sweet and loving. She sleeps with me most nights. She is a typical silly orange cat-a bit of a space cadet. She has a lovely personality and demeanor. You can pick her up, give her hugs, she is happy to be a lap cat. Overall she is a very relaxed cat, very cooperative. She is bonded with Rosie. She does take thyroid medication for mild hyperthyroidism that is under $20 per month.

Rosie is a super sweet, loving and playful kitty. She was a very shy stray kitten and still has some shyness with new people but once shes comfortable she is very affectionate. She is bonded with Minnie. Rosie is on prescription cat food and medication for idiopathic cystitis.

Story
My kitty got out while waiting to be spayed, she had triplet boy tigers. They have all grown up together around our dog and 3 children. We have kept them indoors since birth. They start purring before you pick them up to cuddle. They are soft, gentle, sweet, fluffy and kind. We already have 4 adult cats and are unable to keep these precious kittens. We pray they find a good home.

Story
Luna is a 4–5-year-old former farm kitten with a very sweet and quirky personality. I’m looking for a new home for her due to a difficult family situation that makes it impossible for me to give her the care and stability she deserves. Luna is clingy in a loving way — she likes to be near you, follow you around, and nap close by. She can be shy at first, but once she feels safe, she becomes very playful, energetic, and silly. She especially loves to play fetch, hide in tight spaces, and relax in quiet areas. Luna is gentle and easy to handle — not aggressive, okay with baths, and nail trims are easiest right after a bath when she’s relaxed. Overall, she’s a loyal, cuddly cat who thrives in a calm home with someone patient, and loving.

Story
Hi, I’m Klaus! I’m getting to be an old man at 6 years old, but I’m a little more social than my brother Grey, I love rubbing up against everyone and checking out every new person walking into the house. I’ll cuddle with you all night and lurk around the house during the day. I’m a biggggg boy, around 2-2.5ft long! But very agile. My favorite thing to do these days is cuddle my little brother on any bed or couch I can find, that’s why we have to stay together! Can’t wait to see if we can snuggle on your couch for our afternoon nap!
