Story
Legolas (Legs for short) is a sweet, cuddly boy with moderate cerebellar hypoplasia, born in September 2022. CH affects his ability to walk, though he gets around pretty well. He loves to play and cuddle. Occasionally he will go outside the litter box since the CH makes it difficult for him to walk, but he can use a litter box. He and his siblings were all bottle fed from 3 weeks on due to his mother passing.

Story
Pepper, Max, Murphy and Sasha are siblings. They are looking for their forever home. They are two months old. Their birthday is April 1, 2023. Mom is a stray that someone dropped off in our neighborhood. She has been around about six months. Her age is unknown but she is tame enough to be touched and picked up. We have an already established colony living with us so that's why these babies need a good home. I have room in my heart but not my home for these sweet babies. I would love to see them go to a good and loving home.

Story
Homer used to be my niece’s cat and I took over his care after she left for school. He’s an alpha cat and prefers to be the only cat to get loved on. He still has his claws, uses the litter box, but does prefer to poop outside so I just use bathroom matts outside litter box for him to poop on. He is a great companion. He is 8 years old so he sleeps a lot, but still is playful. Vet says he’s healthy and is a good 20 pounder cat. When he lays on my chest, I can feel it and it’s great because it’s like holding a big teddy bear in my arms. He’s shy and needs to warm up to you. He likes it quiet. He does talk. And he sleeps with me on bed. I would like to rehome as soon as possible as I’m dying.

Story
Angel is an older kitty. Her previous owner passed away & the family surrendered her to SPCA. She likes space of her own, is very sweet & loving. No biting or scratching ever! She has I S/D… but through my Vet, I’ve learned she’s ( her digestive system ) is ALLERGIC TO CHICKEN. Science Diet for IBSD made her condition worse! Don’t use that! Use Turkey, Rabbit, Lsmb or Seafood, single ingredient foods. Iams Turkey formula ( pink bag at the grocery store ) has helped her beyond!…extreme good results! I don’t give her chicken moist food either. If you stick with these quidelines, she will be a precious kitty for you to love. I love her & want her to have a happy home for the rest of her life. I have to move by mud-June, & can’t bring myself to put her back in a cage at the shelter. BTW, she loves chicken free treats & sitting in front of a roaring fireplace. I gave Hallmark pics of her content & at peace in front of the fireplace. Please help.

Story
First and foremost, this cat is loved. He was found as a one month or less old kitten mid July in a scorching hot Walmart parking lot without his mama. His eyes hadn't even changed color yet and you couldn't tell if he was a boy or girl. As of May 2023 he is about 10-11 months old. He has had all his shots up to this point and is a loving, rambunctious, healthy boy. He loves to explore and play. We allow him to go outside but it would be completely up to you. We have two other cats, one male and one female. His has been with his "older siblings" since he came to live with us. Lately however, he has come to realize that he is taller then his big brother and has begun bullying him which is the reason for rehoming. He may grow out of this, maybe this behavior is only because of his age. But he is too out of hand for my elderly mother, who is his primary caregiver as I work out of time a lot. I would like to see him go to a home where he can get lots of individual attention and love.
