Story
Bhakti is one of five kittens born to a rescued neighborhood cat who was pregnant. He was born on March 18, 2024. He is very affectionate. His eyes are beautiful. He plays well with humans, cats, and rabbits. He is gentle and loves to sit in your lap and sleep with you. He eats well, uses the litter box, and behaves well. He is neutered and has had the rabies vaccination. He would still need the FVRCP vaccination, which can be gotten at the Humane Society Vaccination Clinics for $15. He is a wonderful cuddler, and really seems to bond with humans.

Story
Nico is a 3 y/o boy who needs to be indoors/outdoors. He’s very intelligent with lots of personality and love to offer. He would be perfect for someone who could let him spend a lot of time outside during the day and give him lots of love when he comes back in from his adventures. He does best in a low stress household, as he tends to take on the stress of those living with him, resulting in urinary problems. Being outside helps keep his stress low. He’s a people cat, very cuddly several times a day, and passionate about snack time. He’s lived with both dogs and cats, and loves cuddling with them whenever he could. He’s a wonderful cat, and I wish we could keep him, but circumstances have made us realize he would be happier and healthier with resources we aren’t able to provide right now. It’s very important to us that he finds a good home, so please message me if you’re able to care for such a special, lovable kitty. The adoption fee will be donated to Brother Wolf, a no kill shelter.

Story
Iga came into my life about 8 weeks ago at work (I work in vet med) A client of ours surrendered Iga to me because she had a broken leg and no longer wanted her. I have paid all of her medical bills, took her in, cared for her, and her leg is now healed. The previous owner adopted 2 new kittens shortly after surrendering Iga. They had a story of not having money or the ability to care for her, which is why I took her in. She is a sweet girl and I wanted to help her so she didn’t wind up at a shelter. Iga is a grey and white DSH 1.5 years old. She has been spayed, combo tested, and up to date on all vaccines until late March of 2025. She is up to date on flea/tick/heartworm meds until Sep. 3. Our home currently has two other female cats and a dog. She is not getting along with my other two cats at all and I fear I need to look for resources to rehome her. I do believe she would do best in an only cat household. I just want the best life for her and for her to be happy.

Story
Norm is a 1 year old cuddle buddy. He loves to play, relax, and enjoys a good lap sit session. He is a nuzzler and likes to get close to your face if you allow :) We got Norman from an unofficial fostering situation. We wanted to see if he would get along with our 3yo female. She has other plans and growls at him to this day. We can’t allow them in the same room so we have to put sweet Norman up for adoption. He is an amazing cat and anyone would be lucky to have him as an addition to their home. He is good with other animals and great with people! He loves meeting new people and has done well with our neighbors dog so he could work well in a home with a pup. He can be a little avoidant if he is afraid at first so a slow intro would be ideal. He got eager to meet our girl after only a day! He’s so friendly to all and would be a great playmate! And furry family member.
