Story
Hi, my name is Theodorable because I am a purrrfect charmer, total ham, chunky cheeks with big green eyes that will make your heart melt as I happily purr away on your chest! I was abandoned by a family when they moved away. They already had a lot of animals and children and they left me in October. I went to the neighbor’s house and waited at her door for 1.5 months, never seeking shelter, just freezing and waiting for the times when she would come out and hold me and feed me. I just wanted to be wrapped in her arms. Finally, I melted her heart and she let me come inside! She took me to the vet, got me neutered, triple tested and vaccinated. She thinks I am around 2-3 years old because I am playful and still “kitteny”! I am handsome and loving. I am good with some cats but not with others who run from me because I will chase them. I am an alpha boy here at her house w/ her two lady cats. They are not crazy about me, even though I really like them! I am so deserving of a home.

Story
Ghost is the biggest cuddle bug you could ever hope to have in a cat! He gets along great with other cats and older kids and has done well with both dogs we have had, big and small. He has not andjusted well since having our baby and this is why we are interested in rehoming him. We know he would be happier with someone who could give him all the attention he deserves! Please reach out for any additional details!

Story
Mama cat arrived at our back door last March, pregnant, and had 4 beautiful kittens. We adopted all but one out, Elvis, who is also available and they are bonded. We have been taking care of them, but we cannot bring them inside. We are moving at the end of the school year and would love for them to find a home where they can come in from the cold. Mama is always looking for company, she loves it when someone sits outside with her and talks to her. She is great at climbing trees, and they both like hunting the mice in the woods. They are both very sweet and would make a family very happy.

Meet Elvis. He's super adventurous and spunky, loves exploring. He's very friendly and loves cuddles. He would be great in a home with kids or other cats. He and his mom (Mama cat, also available) are bonded and would love to go to a home together where they can come in from the cold, but still play outside. He's a good hunter, and loves climbing trees. They are both litter box trained and up to date on all shots.
