Story
Tucker is a great cat. He gets along well with my 3 dogs yet doesn't with 2 female cats we rescued. This is why we need to find him a home asap. He is very independent, likes to be where you are, loves the bathroom sink, and looking out the windows. He also loves a little milk when my husband has his cereal! I've been trying to rehome him for a year now. I would rather him go directly to a home than to the shelter first.

Story
I got Hazel when she was 6 weeks old from a litter my friend’s cat had 9 years ago. I have a toddler and am pregnant with my 2nd child. Hazel is not a big fan of small children. She is good with older children, adults and other animals. I have another cat and a dog she’s been with her whole life. She is a good cat, I have had her so many years. We moved to Winston Salem NC from Long Island NY a little over a year ago and we do not know many people here so it is hard for us.

Story
Lima is the sweetest boy you could ever meet. He is good with other cats and small animals he don’t even bat an eye at! He has so much love to give out and is so beautiful. Lima like his brother boots has had every test under the sun and all come back negative for anything. He mainly just sneezes a lot but is otherwise fine. If you can get past his sneezes he is so sweet and loving!

If you are looking for non stop loving, Boots is your guy! He comes with endless kisses and headbutts for attention! Our pictures don't do this handsome boy justice!

He absolutely LOVES dogs and will also headbutt them with love as well!

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##
