Story
Momma was a cat that my bf found while working on a house in East cleveland. She had 2 babies when he saw her. By the time he was able to go back he was only able to find 1 baby after looking the whole day. He took them both in and after a month tried to integrate her with his 3 other cats. While the baby is doing great, Momma is now marking all over the house. She would do best somewhere that has time to integrate properly or as an only pet. As it is right now neither my bf or I can keep her. She is great with kids and very loving. I believe her time as a stray and a mother has left her with ptsd of having to be protective of herself and her babies. She deserves a loving home with someone who has the time to make sure she can live a long happy life in safety.

Story
Penny is an adorable snuggler looking to be in an indoor, one cat home. Penny loves sunbathing, chasing lasers, and snacking on squeezey treats! She is 7 years old and unfortunately not a fan of our male cat. She is NOT aggressive, they just aren’t friends. She is NOT declawed, but doesn’t scratch furniture or walls. She occasionally will scratch the rugs, but prefers the scratching post. Penny will be rehomed with her favorite food, favorite sleepy spot, and toys.

Story
We adopted Leopold and her brother Fred after catching them as strays for neutering/spaying when they were less than a year old probably. While we were holding them for recovery, we attached to them and decided to bring them inside and adopt. Leopold is fairly shy and tends to hide when people first arrive at home, especially newcomers. She warms up pretty quickly, especially when sitting on a couch quietly. That’s when she will come for as many pets and belly rubs as she can get, asking for them with a very demure little mew. She will headbutt you for more pets incessantly, she is such a cuddler. She also has the softest fur on a cat I have ever felt. Leopold is about 7 years old and still gets big bursts of energy and runs around the house once or twice a day.

Story
We adopted Fred and his sister Leopold after catching them as strays for neutering/spaying when they were less than a year old probably. While we were holding them for recovery, we attached to them and decided to bring them inside and adopt. Fred is a talkative fellow and loves attention. He tends to over groom himself, hence the pheromone collar, which helps a ton. He likes to lay at the foot of the bed, especially during cold months!Fred is about 7 years old and still gets big bursts of energy and runs around the house once or twice a day.

Story
I adopted my silly boy from a lovely family in New Jersey last year when he was just a little baby, and he’s been by my side ever since. I unfortunately have to move cross country soon and the pet rent/fees are way above my pay grade. Sombra is a food motivated boy, shy at first but opens up when you have a treat in hand! He’s bonded to my other boy Lucio but he can go separate as long as he has another feline companion to keep him company. Sombra just turned 1, his birthday is on May 27th. He likes to sleep with you, is very gentle and doesn’t show any signs of aggression. He is a strictly indoor cat, though I’m currently leash/harness training him as well. He knows one trick, sit! I hope whoever decides to take my sweet boy will treat him with the same love and affection I do.
