Story
Isaac is 15 months old and we adopted him 12/26/24, from a family whose older cat did not get along. He is extremely affectionate, playful, and people-oriented. He wants to be with us constantly: cuddling, following us around the house, or engaging in interactive play. He scratches well on posts, enjoys toys, and uses his litter boxes reliably. He does not do well with older, non-playful cats. He has never been with a younger, playful cat, so he might do well with them. He is currently on stress management medication. We think he needs to be: An only cat, or possibly with a young, energetic cat who truly wants to play as much as he does; In a home with people who can give him daily interactive play, especially in the mornings; With someone who enjoys a very affectionate, cuddly companion; Ideally with someone comfortable managing his current medication routine, or exploring under vet guidance, whether he can be weaned off it in a stress-free environment

Story
Meet Bonnie! She is an energetic, smart, and loving forever kitten who is looking for her forever home. She loves to play with her favorite mice and watch bird livestreams on the TV! She wants to keep you all to herself, so she needs to be a solo friend, but she's great with strangers and isn't shy about rolling over for belly rubs. Bonnie's favorite downtime activity is curling up under the blankets with you, so not only is she super cute she also acts as the world's softest space heater. She would be great for an owner of any experience level and would be great with kids. She's ready to find a new best friend for the holiday season.

Story
Atlas is a loving, affectionate cat who truly just wants to be near his people. He’s the definition of a lap cat — happiest when he’s curled up close, purring away while you work, read, or relax. He thrives on attention and affection, and will gently remind you when it’s time for some cuddles. Atlas has been a beloved part of our family for years, but with a new baby and a busier household, he isn’t getting the calm attention he deserves. The extra activity and people coming and going have left him feeling a little stressed, and we want to find him a home where he can relax and be doted on again. He’s a wonderful companion for anyone who wants a loyal, gentle cat who loves to give and receive affection. Atlas would do best in a quieter home where he can be the center of attention. If you’re looking for a loving cat to keep you company and fill your home with purrs, Atlas will make your heart melt.

Story
See our adoption page: https://xxxx@xxxx.x / Recently, a feral cat in our neighborhood deposited her litter on the doorstep of a nearby relative. Fortunately, our loving aunt Patti was available to provide temporary shelter. Unfortunately, our friends and family circles are already at full, cat-capacity and simply cannot take them in. As such, please reach out if you're interested in adopting.​​ ​By all accounts the kittens appear healthy, social, well-adjusted, and all take to their litter boxes just fine. They are playful, loving, entertaining, and absolutely perfect in every way. They are currently indoors in a safe environment and not permitted outside.​ As of today, December 10th, 2025, we suspect the litter is approximately 7-8 weeks old. Note that the pictures provided throughout this site were taken less than 2 weeks ago. We will continue to update this site with updated pictures and videos. Additional videos and PICs are available upon request. Thank you !!
