Story
Due to unforeseen circumstances we find ourselves having to Rehome our sweet kitty, she has been with us since she was a kitten. Luna may take some time warming up to a new environment and people but once she does she loves to sit on your lap and just sleep. Especially if there are blankets involved, she loves to chase lasers and go after anything crinkly. She likes to find a “spot” and just stays there most of the time if cuddles aren’t an option. She’s fine with our 80 dog, and we used to have another cat that passed away a few years ago who she tolerated.. she’s not a huge fan of other cats but after an adjustment period has been fine with anything. We have an infant who had pulled her tail a few times and she will meow but hasn’t done anything past that so I believe she may do better in a home with no small children. She is 7 years old and is mostly black, she has a white spot on her chest and belly, she is on the smaller side maybe 7-10 lbs.

Story
Pros: - will snuggle with you - will allow you to pick her up once trusted - very good with litterbox and different types of litter - very soft - very silly/goofy - not a lot of hairballs Cons: - can be clingy - can be annoying/loud meower - is dumb (combo with very curious and clumsy, always watch when moving big items) - is clumsy (DOES NOT ALWAYS LAND ON HER FEET) - has no claw awareness Special: Azula started out wanting to be friends and socialize with other cats. Unfortunately has been bullied for many years and turned skittish, jumpy and not the greatest at socialization. It is my belief that in a very patient and loving environment with no cats or chill/friendly/no bully cats she will eventually lose skittishness and become overall friendlier to cats and happier. Personality: Doesn’t like dogs or loud noises. Instinct is to hide around new people. Startles easily. Has zoomies about 1-3 times a day. Gets overstimulated very fast.

Story
Tiger was abandoned and needs a home. He is so sweet and loves people and pets. He doesn't need a lot of attention just a safe place to call home. If I didn't already have a full home I would keep him but I can't. He loves to be pet and loves to eat. Please give him a chance.

Story
There's a small colony of cats around my apartment complex. I first saw a wisp of Robert about two months ago, but he disappeared the moment he saw a human. The first time I saw his face his big Tom cheeks made me think I'd lured a bobcat to my porch! That's where he got the name. He's since opened up to be the sweetest boy. My husband and I would absolutely adopt him if we weren't already at our pet limit per our lease. We got Robert neutered and vetted. He is FIV+ but leukemia negative so he's safe around other cats so long as they don't fight. He's friendly with all the outdoor cats and has been trying to engage with ours through the door with chirps and purrs, so I think he would like a friend or two. The vets aged him to six years and he's obviously had a rough life, but you'd never be able to tell with how he melts in your hands. He could drown out a Harley with his purrs and keep up with an industrial biscuit maker. Robert is ready to be someone's baby and give all the love
