My name is coconut! I love kids, dogs, and other cats! I also love to eat, playing with toys, sleeping in the sunshine, and cuddling in bed. I am very vocal! But very relaxed. I don’t like to be left alone very much, but I’m still pretty little. I can’t wait to find a forever home!

Story
Tom Tom was left behind by a neighbor that couldn;t take him when she moved. He has looked rough over the years but he was finally trapped and fixed. He has the biggest cheeks and is a gentle giant who just wants love. He has lived inside outside with her for about 5 years until she moved. She had another cat that he lived with. Please consider adopting sweet Tom Tom. And he knows his name. 🥹 He loves scratches on his neck and cheeks. And couldnt be more sweet especially after everything he has endured. He just wants to come in and live a better life. If interested I would have to catch him when he comes eat he may be scared at first but once he warms up just thank God for this awesome boy. 😺❤️

Story
Javier is a young male neutered cat that i adopted about 2 years ago and he was 1 to 2 years old at the time. He is extremely shy at first, but super sweet and social after getting to know you. He LOVES churus, catnip, and hard treats and is a MAJOR foodie. Unfortunately I am no longer able to care for him, so I am looking for a new home for him. He loves toys and is a good mouse hunter, though he needs to be indoors only due to his past experiences in life.

Story
Hi, my name is Shiloh! I’m an 11-month-old kitty with lots of energy, curiosity, and love to give. I get along great with dogs—I currently live with three big pups and I think they’re pretty cool! I also do well with other cats and kids, so I’d fit right in with a busy or family-style home. When I’m not exploring or playing, I enjoy curling up on the couch near you, and sometimes I’ll even settle right into your lap for a nap. I love being petted and will happily soak up attention whenever you find me lounging around the house. I’m a sweet, social boy who just wants a home where I can play, relax, and get lots of love. If you’re looking for a friendly, fun companion, I might be the perfect new addition to your family!

Story
Looking to rehome this beautiful, sweet girl. She's very affectionate & loves humans, but is very possessive when it comes to sharing attention with other cats. I believe she'll do very well in a solitary cat home. She'll greet you like a doggo when you get home, growl at passersby out the window, and settle near you as soon as you sit down. She's spayed and recently had a vet visit, healthy albeit slightly chunky. Her original name was Chloe, but was renamed Bowie and will respond to either. Please consider giving her a lovely home🖤🤍

Story
The summer of 2023, a barn cat near my house had a little of kittens and I had the pleasure that of picking out Enoch as my kitty. He’s warm and cuddly, he loves the outdoors. I want him to be safe and have a warm place to rest his sweet head at night. Although it breaks my heart that I need to rehome him, I know that a family would be lucky to have him. He’s always on the move and he coos and squeaks instead of meowing sometimes. He makes me laugh. He laughs neck rubs and will never turn down a treat. He’s a good kitty to have and I will miss him with my whole heart.
