Story
Gryffon is a sweet boy. He loves people and is good with chill dogs. I am moving and will be living with my mom who is allergic. He is on special urinary tract health food (Purina) as he gets crystals in his urine if he doesn't. He loves to lay in your lap but doesn't really like being picked up. His auto-clean litter box, water fountain and food dish will acompany him. I have a female cat that will also be rehomed that he invades her space and they fight. That is the only experience he has with other cats. He may do fine with a non-territorial cat.

Adopted from Athens Humane Society 2 years ago. Frida and Louise are about 3 years old. They are a bonded pair, sisters, so they need to be adopted together. They are both affectionate, although Frida is skittish and has always been since I adopted her. Louise is more dominant.

Story
Max is a sweetheart who is happiest snuggling in a lap or snoozing under a bed. He loves pets and attention. He has lived his whole life with another cat, so with time I'm sure he'd adjust to living with a new cat. He hasn't been around a dog since he came to live with us at 10 wks old. I think he'd do fine with a mellow dog. Max spent the first 4 wks of his life living outside with a feral mom, so his fight or flight instincts are very present but it's ALWAYS flight. He has never been at all aggressive. He runs away when people come into the house but will return if it's a person he's comfortable with. I do think a noisier/busier home would be too stressful for him. When my kids and grandkids come over as a bigger group, he stays hidden away until they leave. He will come out for quieter guests that come around often. He has never had any litter box issues and his front claws have been removed. I want to find him a home with someone who will love him like we do. (DOB 4/9/19)

Story
Michael is a sweet boy he just has scaredy cat tendencies. The vet thinks it’s anxiety. I tried the medication and it didn’t work. I’ve tried to take him to the local shelter and they will not accept cats right now or any time I’ve tried. I can’t just abandon him.. he needs a nice home.

Story
Storm and Rogue are a brother/sister pair originally adopted together at 6 weeks. They have always lived together and with larger dogs. Rogue (male) is affectionate and sweet, while his sister Storm is well, a bit of a "storm". I've recently had the last of my adult children move out and am finding it difficult to get home early enough to spend time with them.
