Essie

American Shorthair

Female, Adult

Lakewood, OH

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Essie is a 6/7 year old rescue that I pulled out from under a dumpster at my workplace while she was still under a year old. It took her a little while to adapt to indoor life, but once she did, she became an incredibly friendly, loving & caring cat, but, like most cats, it's on her own terms. She loves to play, but mostly on her own, unless you're going to throw her something with catnip on it. She loves a nice Sunbeam nap. She will physically nap in your lap, but this is only a very recent development.

Story

Hershal is 3 years I had him and his brothers since they were born. They went to another home but wad returned so I kept them and they go inside and outside. Hershal has FIV and needs to be indoors, which isn't feasible for me. We are looking for an experienced adopter to give him a home indoors. Preferably someone with a cat or cats already. I would be willing to send one of his brothers with him for the right home. If it doesn't work out for some reason I can take them back. And try rehoming him again. I would really appreciate updates to know how he is adapting to his new home and am willing to help when needed.

Story

I have an 11 year old cat that is very well loved. He is very affectionate and easy going. He is pretty quick with adjustment also (we moved several times). We unfortunately cannot keep him due to my four-year-old having cystic fibrosis and has many lung problems. We have been trying to keep the cat away from her, but unfortunately, even the smallest amount of pet dander is an irritation to her. We also have a newborn on the way. He may be 11, but still has a lot of spunk and playfulness. He loves little catnip play mice. But he also loves to snuggle on your lap at night. Please help to find a forever home.

Story

She is a one year old girl, she is curious and shy at the same time. She will greet you and love people but is more reserved. She is soft and gets along with other cats. She came from a household of 5 cats and we feel she would do better when someone can give her more attention. She loves to play and eat wet food and treats. We feel she will do better in a house more quiet and slow.

Story

***Courtesy Post*** Meet Blu, a stunning Russian Blue/Bombay cat. Blu is very sweet, and snuggly, and opinionated, lol She loves to be petted and showered with lots of attention. She also likes treats and catnip! Blue is not comfortable in loud and busy environments. Blu must be adopted with her pretty sister Stormi. They are litter mates and have been joined at the hip since birth. They would be lost without each other, and we are seeking a home that would welcome both of them. The "only" reason their owners are making this heartbreaking decision is because they had a baby a year ago and since then Blu has had behavioral issues with peeing outside of the litter box. Please don't cast judgment. The owners have tried everything and in situations like this I have found that the cats are stressed too and it is not a healthy environment for anyone. Although Blu is very gentle she has had a hard time adjusting. Because of this we feel she would be best in a quiet home without small children.
