Story
We moved to Farquay-Varina brought our older car Nala with us. On 4/5 she disappeared we searched everywhere inside abd out. 10 days later i was checking for Nala at Aspca in Wake without luck but a 5 year old female decided I belonged to her and I fell in love adopted her On 4/22 we were out front gardening and heard faint meows (note we been searching and calling for a week) Incredible she was still alive and had snuck into a tiny hole in our unfinished attic. With some work we got her out thin and clingy. We can’t get put her up for adoption, she is 12 years old and we adopted her 5 years sgo. Spency is very sweet likes to hang with you on the sofa and will sleep with you part of the night. Uses litter box, no bad behavior. Affectionate to all but our okder cat. I hate to take her back to the shelter and i will supply litter box, food, toys, ect She deserves a good home is fine with neighbors children just doesn’t want our older cat Please consider adopting a sweet cat.

Story
Meow Meow is a super sweet cat just looking for a loving home! We think she might be around 10 years old, she was abandoned by one of our neighbors and we are unfortunately unable to take care her in. She's an indoor cat and is extremely low maintenance! I'd love to see her go to a home where she could get the attention she deserves (a nice sunny window to nap in would be a plus!). Please contact me if you're interested in giving a sweet kitty who just wants some human attention a loving home! I am asking for a $30 adoption feed just to make sure she goes to a good home who will treat her right, but that fee is going to be donated to the SPCA of Wake County! I'm also completely open to waiving the fee if I meet you and know you're a good person! Times are tough, and I overall I just want Meow Meow to go to a safe home!

Story
We found him in 2023 while hiking with our dogs. He was around 4-5 weeks old and it took awhile to nurse him back to health. He is very sweet and affectionate but terrified of strangers and loud noises. A home without children and dogs would probably be best for him.

Story
My cats name is banjo and he is a year old. I’ve had him for about eight months now, with the two of us in my apartment. I am moving soon and I can’t bring him to my new apartment, I’ve exhausted everyone I know personally to adopt him. I like to say that Banjo “has that dog in him” because he acts so much like one but is the prettiest cat on the outside. His favorite place to be is in someone’s personal space asking to be held and pet, it doesn’t matter who, as long as they hold and pet him. Banjo is friendly to all people and children as he likes to be pet everywhere. My gf has a small dog and Banjo plays great with her and I’ve never had a problem, he hasn’t had experience with bigger dogs, but I doubt it would be any different. His favorite things to do are chase any string or bell and to sit on the porch and watch birds once he’s tired.

Story
Meet Buttermilk, a 7-year-old American Medium Hair cat with a heart of gold. Rescued from the streets two years ago, he’s been my loyal companion, bringing comfort like no other. Affectionately known as “Butters”; he’s a cuddle bug who thrives on attention and forgiveness. But due to my upcoming move to a non-cat-friendly place, I must find him a new loving home. It breaks my heart to part with him, but I’m determined to ensure he finds a family who cherishes him as much as I do. Buttermilk enjoys food, playtime, and being a source of solace on tough days. If you’re in the Raleigh, NC area and can offer him a forever home, please reach out. There’s a $50 rehoming fee to ensure his well-being, including an in-person visit and vet check. Act fast; my move is imminent and happening on May 1st. Remember, Buttermilk is FIV+ and has a minor heart murmur, but his love knows no bounds. Let‘s find him the loving home he deserves.
