Story
Handsome is a very particular cat, he makes it well known you must earn his trust first...but once you do this big boy makes the reward well worth the effort. He will be the first one in bed at night and his choosen place is in a leg curve or propped up on one like it is an armed chair. He has the funniest voice to come out of such a large cat and will gladly demonstrate his agility skills when any stringed toy is presented. Handsome is very affectionate to his cat family but prefers to seek human affection on his own terms, making it very obvious by meowing or rolling back and forth in front of your feet. Handsome was relocated to a second foster home a few months ago and is getting along well with other foster cats in the home.  He has also been very loving to the foster kittens in the home. ##1191272##

Story
Nala is a 3 year old black panther who is patiently awaiting a new home. She is a very affectionate girl who loves to chat and meow to her people. She loves to run around the house and play. She adores canned food. She also likes to have the attention on her so she would prefer a home as the only cat or with a submissive cat who will let her make the rules. Nala is currently in a room alone (her only other option is a room full of other cats) so she would LOVE to finally have a chance at a family who would treat her like the queen she is. She will bring you lots of love and attention in exchange for some scritches and canned food. She's been waiting a long time. She doesn't do well at fairs or in the cages at adoption centers so she needs a fair shake! She's a sensitive girl who needs someone to trust that she will be the loving lap cat cat she is meant to be after a little time for adjustment. Apply online www.triadcat.org! ##1191274##

Story
I previously came from a feral colony. My ear was clipped when I was spayed and released back. I eventually made my way to a kind lady that would feed me.  I am very sweet and when I want attention I will sit and stare patiently until you hold out your hand. I enjoy flopping myself on the floor when you rub me and flipping side to side. I literally get along with all cats because I am very secure with myself and unphased.  ##1370779##

Story
Sammy Davis is a super affection and incredibly smart tuxedo kitty. He was born in his foster home (to his Russian Blue mom who had SEVEN tuxedo babies) and it was originally decided he may do best just staying in the "shy cat" room as he was super sensitive and didn't do well at fairs or when people visited. But as time has gone on, it's been established he would be much more adoptable than originally thought. In fact, he now ADORES attention. Carry him, let him lap sit for hours, let him love bite for even more attention. He's SUPER affectionate. So much so, now, that he may be a bit of a bully to other cats who also want human attention. It just took him a good while to figure it all out. He does do well with other cats as long as they are the absolute alpha OR absolutely ok with him being the alpha kitty. He's actually kind of a ninny. He will submit to alpha cats but will kind of bully submissive cats to compete for the attention he now desires. So he either needs to be alpha to all or complete beta to one (he will literally "bow down" his head to the alpha...it's actually kind of sweet...but he will "bully" the ones beneath him if he feels he has to compete for attention). A house with lots of dynamics may prove hard for all, as his foster home can attest to since there are so many in it. He does hide when visitors come but after a bit he will come out to see what the fuss is about. His foster mom adores him and doesn't want to let him go but now that he has blossomed she realizes it would be best for him to get a home where he could get more individual attention. He loves to play with toys/wands and he will go absolutely nuts for catnip (TikTokers this is the catnip cat for you!). You will not regret bringing this life into yours! ##1972974##

Story
Dottie is super loving little girl. She loves to be carried around and treated like a princess. She will stand on your shoulders and snuggle your head while you walk at times too ❤️ she is a stray I found a long with her brother Van Gogh. They are a bonded pair. Dottie has been spayed through the shelter and had her first rabies vaccine. She was dewormed at the shelter. She is an inside/outside kitty. Her and her brother need a loving home that can provide the love and attention they deserve.
