Story
Noodle is a CALIFORNIA cat! He has traveled all the way from California to Western North Carolina. Why you may ask?? Because he was SO loved by my daughter that she traveled with Noodle all the way across the United States. This was after she rescued him from a car dealership where he was found in the engine of a car that was being worked on. She is truly in love with Noodle but is not able to take him with her to her new apartment. I am helping her to find Noodle his forever home. We are not sure if he will get along well with other animals. He is a little feisty and he likes to play a little rough sometimes. We believe he would likely be best suited for a single pet home. Hoping someone will give this little guy the love and attention he deserves. We are broken hearted to let him go! We all work(too much!) and he has had to be alone a lot. We have prayed for a loving home for Noodle and would agree to take him back if his new home did not work out. Oh! and he's only a year old!

Story
Little gal started showing up during feeding time at the farm I used to work at. Her mom and a couple others from the litter were in an abandoned building down the road. Very friendly for a feral so I got her spayed, microchipped and vaccinated. Been keeping her in my garage/basement when when it is cold, and otherwise she has been mostly a barn cat. Excellent mouse/vole hunter, but also indiscriminately murders any other wildlife for fun. She likes being outdoors but also very happy to be indoors sitting on a lap. She loves eating all sorts of things she should not eat out of the compost pile, and using garden beds as a litter box (but she will use litter box when indoors!). I recently took on a new job so feel I cannot give her the attention she deserves and that she would be better appreciated at another home. Born around 3/2022, weighs around 7lb. She likes hanging out with goats, dogs, cats, and humans that give her food and affection. Responds to her name (pronounced way-SUH)

Story
I'm looking to rehome one of my girls unfortunately because she isn't a fit for my home even after trying for months! She has been spayed and is up to date on all vaccines. She was originally adopted from Asheville humane society in fall of 2023 as a few month old kitten, Mavis has blossomed into a shy but spicy and affectionate girl. She enjoys sitting up high in a cat tree, making biscuits in a soft blanket and cuddling frequently but on her own terms. She is eating open farm kitten food because she suffered stomach issues initially from other brands including hills science diet but the vet did say that she would likely outgrow her sensitive stomach. She has had another cat companion for as long as l've had her but she does not enjoy rough play! I'm unsure if she needs to a single cat or if she might need a calmer less territorial counterpart. Mavis tends to be easily stressed out and skiddish. She would do well in a calm home. She has never been outside, around children or dogs.

Story
This sweet little girl loves affection and will follow you around for your attention. She loves to be scratched behind her ears and purrs when you love on her. She and her brother were living with an elderly woman that can no longer care for them. They liked to go outside during the day and then cuddle inside at night. They lived in a very rural area with plenty of room to run around and hunt mice in the field, so outdoor city life may not be the best environment for them. They have been together since birth so the ideal home would be able to accommodate both of them. They are about 4 years old and both have been spayed/neutered. They are currently nestled inside my garage, due to allergies in my home. With the warmer days approaching, I am desperately seeking a loving home for them.
