Details
Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Kozmo found us five months ago, crying at our back door, hungry, scared, and all alone. After getting him healthy, fixed, and vaccinated, we learned he was just over a year old, still a baby, really. With time, safety, and love, Kozmo has blossomed from a skittish stray into a sweet, gentle companion who follows me everywhere, curls up in bed at night, and shows affection in the softest ways. Kozmo is smart, intuitive, curious, funny, playful, and loving. He would thrive as the only cat in a home with outdoor space where he can explore and roam. While he has made progress, he does not do well sharing space with another cat, and we want him, and our other cat to feel fully safe and relaxed. He goes outside in the daytime for a few hours, and stays in at night. We are hoping to find Kozmo the peaceful, cat-free home he deserves, where he can truly thrive.

Story
Cleo started appearing in my yard in October and Ive been feeding her since. She was shy at first but quickly became very friendly and loving. I have gotten her up to date on her shots and she was already fixed when I found her. She stays outside but she definitely wants to come inside. She enjoys belly rubs, booty pats and rubbing against your ankles. Shes the sweetest cat Ive ever met. Never tried to bite or claw me and she lets me pick her up. I would really like to find her a loving home that she could be an indoor kitty. It's not safe and getting too cold outside for her.

Story
ALF got his name because he came to us as a 1 week old kitten with huge eyes that made him look a bit like an alien. ALF is a quiet guy, but still loves to wrestle with his foster siblings. His favorite things are to laze around in the screened in porch or perch himself somewhere to watch out the window. He likes to be pet and held. He starts purring as soon as you look at him. He gets along with dogs and cats. He lives with cockatiel birds and just watches them. He's a chill and respectful guy. He has a cute crick in his tail which makes him unique. He had the crick when he came into the rescue. We think his umbilical cord was wrapped around his tail when he was born. It doesn't stop him from waving it around as he struts through the house. DOB: ~9/14/24 ALF is neutered, current on his distemper and rabies vaccines, microchipped and was combo tested negative. If interested in ALF, please fill out an adoption application: https://new.shelterluv.com/form/other/MFAR/42224-mfar-adoption-application
