Indy is a mellow, reserved gentleman who I've finally gained the trust of. He is a sweet cat who can be a big scardy cat at times. He will do best in a more clam paced environment. Indy we think is around 4 years old and he is FIV positive . He is at this time pretty healthy and not symptomatic . He is good with a litterbox and will be adopted to an indoor only home. He is neutered, microchipped, utd on vaccines felv negative and again is fiv +

Story
Piper is 11 years old and very sweet and affectionate, she was adopted by us as a kitten. She is healthy with no special needs, and weighs about 10 lbs. She has lived most of her life with other pets, both cats and dogs and gotten along with all of them. She has always been an indoor cat. We are relocating overseas and are unable to take her with us. We're looking for a good home for her with someone looking for a sweet senior companion who will take good care of her.

Story
Kozmo found us five months ago, crying at our back door, hungry, scared, and all alone. After getting him healthy, fixed, and vaccinated, we learned he was just over a year old, still a baby, really. With time, safety, and love, Kozmo has blossomed from a skittish stray into a sweet, gentle companion who follows me everywhere, curls up in bed at night, and shows affection in the softest ways. Kozmo is smart, intuitive, curious, funny, playful, and loving. He would thrive as the only cat in a home with outdoor space where he can explore and roam. While he has made progress, he does not do well sharing space with another cat, and we want him, and our other cat to feel fully safe and relaxed. He goes outside in the daytime for a few hours, and stays in at night. We are hoping to find Kozmo the peaceful, cat-free home he deserves, where he can truly thrive.

Story
Meet Marcy, a 7yr old loving girl who has been with her current owner for 3 years. Marcy was recently diagnosed with diabetes and needs a home where this is properly cared for. She eats Sheba pate with fancy feast broths, and gets two injections of insulin a day. Marcy loves other cats, does well with a dog, and loves kids. Marcy is apprehensive around men, so would do best with an all female home or a home where the males are gentle and patient with her. Marcy loves to sit at the window and watch birds, play with toys, and lay around on the couch. She was adopted from the Greenville Humane Society as a kitten, returned for unknown reasons after 4 years, then adopted by her current owner who loves her dearly. Unfortunately they are unable to keep up with her diabetic needs and are seeking a loving home for a cat with so much love and life to give. Who can resist those big beautiful eyes 🥹 Adoption fee is to ensure she goes to a proper home. Initial diabetic supplies will be provided.

Story
Cleo started appearing in my yard in October and Ive been feeding her since. She was shy at first but quickly became very friendly and loving. I have gotten her up to date on her shots and she was already fixed when I found her. She stays outside but she definitely wants to come inside. She enjoys belly rubs, booty pats and rubbing against your ankles. Shes the sweetest cat Ive ever met. Never tried to bite or claw me and she lets me pick her up. I would really like to find her a loving home that she could be an indoor kitty. It's not safe and getting too cold outside for her.
