Story
Coley is a sweet one-year-old cat who decided to be our porch kitty a few months ago. What began as a plan to have him neutered and keep him outdoors quickly changed when Coley made it clear that he enjoys the comforts of indoor life! Coley is a loving little guy who’s starting to enjoy being hand petted. He has a special fondness for giving "leg love" and purrs loudly to show his appreciation. Coley absolutely loves playing with our other cats and has shown no signs of aggression toward them. He enjoys both social play and solo play with toys and scratchers. Coley would thrive in a home that understands the needs of a shy cat and is willing to give him the time he needs to fully trust and bond. If you’re looking for a gentle, playful cat who’s on the brink of becoming your new best friend, Coley is ready to find a loving home where he can continue to blossom. He’s waiting for someone special to show him that he’s safe, loved, and right where he belongs.

Story
I am the black male of two siblings. My sister's name is LuLu. We are seven months old. We enjoy playing with each other and with our toys. I love attention and getting loving but my sister, LuLu, has some differences. She requires a little more patience to come around in a new environment. I feel that we would be better if we were adopted together because of our bond and my sister needs some support from me to have a smoother adjustment to our forever home, but we can be separated if absolutely needed. If you would be interested in giving us our forever home, here is some information you would need to know: Our adoption fees would be $75 each if adopted separately, but if you would like to keep us together, the adoption fee would be reduced to 50% off to cover a portion of our expenses for the rescue. The rescue will also provide some essentials we would need in our new home.

Story
I am Lannie, the female sibling, and my brother is Linnie. We are seven months old now. We are close to looking alike but have a few color differences. Lannie has more of a silver color to him and I have more of a brown color like our momma. We enjoy playing and chasing each other. He has a more curious personality than me. Love attention and giving love while he likes to explore and play. He enjoys catching me off guard and wrestling with me. While our fosters have been awesome, we would be so excited to find our forever home. We would love to be adopted together so we could be playmates but if we absolutely need to be separated we understand.

Story
Mimsy showed up in my life in late 2022 and has lived in my backyard since,along with her small family. She has been fixed and vaccinated and is a very sweet lil lady. She is probably around 3 years old and deserves a a life of being spoiled indoors. My older female cat is not a fan of her and other female cats so it wouldn't be a fit for her to come into our home. Trust me, I would love to have her in our home. I have kept her safe with a little shelter outside,but she sometimes would prefer to sleep in a tree or on a roof where she can see everything. She would love a tall cat tower I am sure of it.

Story
Squeaks is a beautiful orange tabby male who was born around Jan 2023. He was found with a wound on his tummy which required surgery and brought into a foster home. Squeaks was born outdoors and is shy with new folks. He lives with his foster mom and dad and their two cats. He is devoted to his foster parents. Squeaks follows them around and is a real lap cat. He is playful and loving. He loves to play with the other two cats in the household. He likes toys and would do well with any family who puts in time to gain his trust. Orange cats are thought to be friendlier and more affectionate than other cats. They tend to be snuggly. Some orange tabbies are so affectionate that they are often cat-egorized as “velcro” kitties. **Adoption fee of $140 includes spay/neuter, vet visits, deworming, and shots. ** Adoption Application: mercyrescue.org
