Story
I got Hendrix when she was about eight months old from my daughter. She was not getting along with my daughters dogs.She is very sweet, but she can also be very sassy. She seems to get along fine with male cats. She is not getting along with my other female cat currently. She used to; I dont know what happened. They growl and fight. She is not living her best life as shes always seems to be on guard. She has started to pee outside the litter box I believe because of the conflict. She has been checked medically, and there are no issues. The vet has cleared her. She likes to sleep with me and she likes being pet and cuddled, but on her own terms.

Story
If you've ever loved a truly special orange tabby- the affectionate, loyal kind who feels like family, Sherbert is the cat you've been waiting for. He's incredibly social, loving, and happiest when he's close to people. Sherbert found his way to us as an outdoor cat, but everything about him suggests he'd much prefer life indoors, whether because he once had a home or simply has the friendliest heart we've ever met. He is neutered, vaccinated, and in excellent health. His ear tip reflects his outdoor status, not his personality. Sherbert is EXCELLENT with other cats and has never met a stranger. He is one of those rare cats that will give you his belly whenever he can. He loves warmth, comfort, and companionship and deserves far more than a shelter. We'd adopt him in a heartbeat if we didn't already have four housecats. Sherbert is ready for a loving home and a family to call his own. No obligation to adopt by submitting an application- feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Story
These cats just showed up at our house. We feed them so they won't starve but they can't come inside because of our house cats. These cats are friendly. The solid black one LOVES to be petted and lays in your lap and PURRS!! She follows us everywhere! So SWEET!!! They both deserve better than living outside in the cold. We have cared for them for a while but with the issues their presence creates for the dogs they absolutely must find a home! I do not want to take them to the shelter but if I can't find an adopter, I may have no other choice. The little black one would love to lay in your lap while you read or watch TV. And she purrs so loud! Please consider adopting one of these kitties. They are already spayed! Rabies is up to date and I will provide other vaccines prior to adoption. Please don't let them spend another cold winter outside.

Story
Atlas is a loving, affectionate cat who truly just wants to be near his people. He’s the definition of a lap cat — happiest when he’s curled up close, purring away while you work, read, or relax. He thrives on attention and affection, and will gently remind you when it’s time for some cuddles. Atlas has been a beloved part of our family for years, but with a new baby and a busier household, he isn’t getting the calm attention he deserves. The extra activity and people coming and going have left him feeling a little stressed, and we want to find him a home where he can relax and be doted on again. He’s a wonderful companion for anyone who wants a loyal, gentle cat who loves to give and receive affection. Atlas would do best in a quieter home where he can be the center of attention. If you’re looking for a loving cat to keep you company and fill your home with purrs, Atlas will make your heart melt.

Story
Meet Poppy 🌸 Poppy is a very sweet, affectionate girl who has been in our care for about six months after arriving as a stray. She originally lived as an outdoor kitty, but due to an injury that required the amputation of one of her legs, she now needs the safety and comfort of an indoor home. Despite everything she’s been through, Poppy is doing wonderfully and is healing beautifully from her surgery. She is an absolute cuddle bug—loving, gentle, and incredibly friendly. Poppy has a curious, adventurous spirit, but she’s also calm and relaxed, making her an easygoing and enjoyable companion. She’s very easy to handle and gets along great with other cats, dogs, and children. Poppy would thrive in a home where she can receive lots of love, snuggles, and indoor comfort as she continues her new chapter.
