Story
Meet Poppy 🌸 Poppy is a very sweet, affectionate girl who has been in our care for about six months after arriving as a stray. She originally lived as an outdoor kitty, but due to an injury that required the amputation of one of her legs, she now needs the safety and comfort of an indoor home. Despite everything she’s been through, Poppy is doing wonderfully and is healing beautifully from her surgery. She is an absolute cuddle bug—loving, gentle, and incredibly friendly. Poppy has a curious, adventurous spirit, but she’s also calm and relaxed, making her an easygoing and enjoyable companion. She’s very easy to handle and gets along great with other cats, dogs, and children. Poppy would thrive in a home where she can receive lots of love, snuggles, and indoor comfort as she continues her new chapter.

Story
Will have to give my sweet boy up as I'm relocating to a home that I can't bring him with me to. He is very talkative, loves cuddling, will try to make friends with anything in the house once he's comfortable, and goes crazy for a laser pointer or a dangly toy. Fair warning, he has zero survival instincts (got bit when he escaped the house and will calmly walk right up to a hissing cat or growling dog), and I think a bit of separation anxiety. Not a fan of closed doors.
