Story
S’mores and Libby were found together and they will stay together. They have been by each other’s sides since they lived under a trailer. They’re always playing and loving on each other and they both love each other very much. S’mores is the domestic shorthair tortie. She’s a chatter box. Once you start talking to her she gonna yap right back. She loves compliments and attention. Her favorite thing is treats. She’s the more social out of the two. Libby is that but the opposite. She’s the bi color tabby American shorthair (?), she’s very skittish and shy and needs a lot of affection. Once you start petting her she won’t let you stop. It takes a while go her to warm up to you but once she realizes your the one feeding her and cleaning her poo she’s all over you. Give them an equal amount of attention and they’ll fall in love with you I promise.

Story
Hazel Mae is a very special little kitty. She was abandoned on our back porch as a small kitten and melted in our arms as soon as we picked her up. She has the genetic characteristics of an Egyptian Mau with little to no shedding, spotted instead of striped.We cannot keep her as our elderly cats don't tolerate new additions, but she is a wonderful kitty. She is very sweet, snuggly, playful and smart. She chases her tail, stands on her back feet like a prairie dog and lays on her back so you can rub her belly. She learns and follows commands quickly. She is perfect indoors but capable outdoors. I estimate she is about 10 months old. She is very much a people kitty and very loyal to her humans. If you want a kitty that will sit with you or on your lap Hazel is your girl! She is spayed, vaccinated for rabies and treated with Nexgard Plus. She has been strictly inside for the last six months and is very healthy. She is truly a special and wonderful little kitty./p>

Story
I found both Bean (male orange) and Marcus (female striped) when they were both a few weeks old. Bean was found in a tree (cliche) crying in December 2023 and Marcus just came up to my door yelling one day. I kept both of them and nursed them back to health. But now in 2025, I am starting to have my own health struggles. I can’t take care of them the way that I used to. And I’m not in an ideal position financially either. I think they deserve a better home than what I can give them right now and a much better pet parent than I can be.

Story
Merida is a sweet, friendly 1 year old girl with an 8 week old boy kitten. She is named after the movie princess. She loves fun, climbing, and independence. Merida is very tidy and house trained. Her worst habits are climbing christmas trees and using furniture if there isn't a scratch post available. She is very loving but isn't very assertive about competing for food and affection, however if she can get a human alone she is quick to snuggle. She is friendly with other cats buts needs her own space. I have only ever heard her hiss in defense of her kitten. She is a caring mom who loves snuggling and playing with her kitten, though every mom needs alone time. Kitten is like most kittens, focused on playing, eating and sleeping. He loves to snuggle humans, but does not like being picked up and will try to wiggle to freedom. He has started on wet and dry food daily but is still nursing. He is not litter box trained yet. I'm looking for a home to take them as a pair.

Story
Mocha is a 9 year old spayed female cat that was rescued from the pound in 2018. Her owner passed away and her new home had 2 resident cats already. Mocha has not acclimated to her new home after a year of giving it a really good try. She would be really good in any household as a the only pet. She is super sweet and cuddly and wants all of the love. The issues that we have is that she has anxiety, not around people, but other animals. She knows how to use a litter box and has for long periods of time, but then she convinces herself and my other cats that the area is scary because they trap her there or chase her away from them. I have added litter boxes in different areas but my original cats just take them over too after a while. She just wants to be loved without being bullied, but I cannot provide that for her. I love her but can no longer handle the animosity. It is getting to all of us! I know she would be happier somewhere else without other pets around.
