Story
Sandy was born under our house in a litter of six kittens. She is sweet, well behaved and loves attention but is not big on being picked up or held. We would prefer to rehome her as a bonded pair with her companion Ash. Ash was found as a kitten outside possibly abandoned or lost. He is a little shy but does love attention, hanging out on the couch with you and can be picked up and held once he warms up to you. We often find the two cuddling together for their naps. Sandy is approximately 2 years old and Ash is between 1 and 2 years old. Unfortunately our older cat has become very aggressive towards other cats in the house and we feel it best to rehome these two as it may be difficult to rehome an aggressive cat. Homing fee is needed just to make sure the adopter is reputable. We would prefer an experienced cat owner due to Ash's shyness.

Story
Due to unforeseen circumstances we find ourselves having to Rehome our sweet kitty, she has been with us since she was a kitten. Luna may take some time warming up to a new environment and people but once she does she loves to sit on your lap and just sleep. Especially if there are blankets involved, she loves to chase lasers and go after anything crinkly. She likes to find a “spot” and just stays there most of the time if cuddles aren’t an option. She’s fine with our 80 dog, and we used to have another cat that passed away a few years ago who she tolerated.. she’s not a huge fan of other cats but after an adjustment period has been fine with anything. We have an infant who had pulled her tail a few times and she will meow but hasn’t done anything past that so I believe she may do better in a home with no small children. She is 7 years old and is mostly black, she has a white spot on her chest and belly, she is on the smaller side maybe 7-10 lbs.

Story
Meow Meow is a super sweet cat just looking for a loving home! We think she might be around 10 years old, she was abandoned by one of our neighbors and we are unfortunately unable to take care her in. She's an indoor cat and is extremely low maintenance! I'd love to see her go to a home where she could get the attention she deserves (a nice sunny window to nap in would be a plus!). Please contact me if you're interested in giving a sweet kitty who just wants some human attention a loving home! I am asking for a $30 adoption feed just to make sure she goes to a good home who will treat her right, but that fee is going to be donated to the SPCA of Wake County! I'm also completely open to waiving the fee if I meet you and know you're a good person! Times are tough, and I overall I just want Meow Meow to go to a safe home!

We moved to Farquay-Varina brought our older car Nala with us. On 4/5 she disappeared we searched everywhere inside abd out. 10 days later i was checking for Nala at Aspca in Wake without luck but a 5 year old female decided I belonged to her and I fell in love adopted her On 4/22 we were out front gardening and heard faint meows (note we been searching and calling for a week) Incredible she was still alive and had snuck into a tiny hole in our unfinished attic. With some work we got her out thin and clingy. We can’t get put her up for adoption, she is 12 years old and we adopted her 5 years sgo. Spency is very sweet likes to hang with you on the sofa and will sleep with you part of the night. Uses litter box, no bad behavior. Affectionate to all but our okder cat. I hate to take her back to the shelter and i will supply litter box, food, toys, ect She deserves a good home is fine with neighbors children just doesn’t want our older cat Please consider adopting a sweet cat.
