Story
Mace is a loving & kind male American Shorthair we have had since he was a kitten. We fostered/adopted him with his sister Maya about 10 years ago. Since we have added other cats to the household, he and his sister have not adapted well. He has become shy and skittish around them as well as the family members. He comes out late to socialize and get groomed, but only for my wife and sometimes my daughter. He needs a quieter and calmer environment, preferably without other pets, and with a single owner or couple. He has been well cared for and is up to date with his vaccines. We will provide a carrier, litter box, scoop, as well as a couple bags of litter. He has no health problems and is very sweet. We are also willing to give the new owners $200 for supplies. Mace and his sister Maya are very comfortable together; they just have issues with our other 3 cats. They can be adopted as a pair, and we can double the supply of money. Maya is listed separately.

Story
Sweet and shy female cat looking for a new home. We have fostered this cat, along with her brother, since they were kittens. She is 9 years old and has been well taken care of. She is healthy and is up to date with her vaccines. Currently, she is not living comfortably or happily with our other cats. She is very timid around the other cats and large groups of people. Our veterinarian suggests we find her a quieter environment, preferably without any other pets and fewer people in the household. Maya would be an ideal cat for a single person looking to take care of a sweet pet. She comes out for petting and companionship later, when the house is calm. We have tried to get her to socialize more, but she still mostly remains to herself. We can supply a variety of essentials, a carrier, litter box, a scoop, brushes, clippers, and a few bags of litter. We are also ready to give her new owner $200 for pet needs once adopted. We care for her, but feel she is not thriving here.

Story
Eliot is a an adventurous, polydactyl cat with extra digits on both front feet. He is very playful, very vocal, and has a lot of curiosity, always wanting to explore. He is affectionate and likes to push up against you to tell you he wants petting. We are unable to keep him because he is acting aggressively toward our other cat. We were misinformed about his temperament when we adopted him, and had thought he was good with other cats. We have tried everything we could think of for the past year, but the stress of housing two cats separately and keeping them constantly sequestered has become too difficult. He needs a family who can give him the attention he deserves. We believe he will fit in great with a family that has medium to large dogs (Eliot has been fine with our Golden Retriever) but not with other cats. He is good with children. Eliot needs a lot of attention and playtime, and will meow a lot to tell you!

Story
Her name is Tyger. I called her Tyger because I thought she was a boy. Tyger is a stray from outside, but she just like ran to our house anyway my mother is elderly she's 83 years old, and s falling a couple of times, I'm just afraid that tripping and running in Tyger might trip her up also she just couldn't do the cat. She has been spayed, is up-to-date on her rabies vaccine, and just had a recent vet visit where she was checked over and found to be in good health. She did have a short round of antibiotics, but she's all good now! She's litter box trained, playful, and loves to jump around. She can be a bit of a picky eater, but she always eats. Overall, she's a healthy, happy, and sweet cat who just needs the right home, with room to roam around. There's no longer a fee for the cat. If you want the litter box, the steel litter box, it's going to cost you $60

Story
These two kitties are a year old. They were found behind our dumpster last September. They are both fixed at PetFix with the vaccinations including rabies. The guys enjoy being inside and outside. They are currently on CateGo flea treatment. Due to an unexpected family emergency I have to relocate to SC and I am not able to house them where I am going. They prefer outside life and are very loving cats.
