Story
Salt was a stray who came frequently to my porch for food and a safe place to sleep. I could tell he was once someone’s house cat, rather than a feral, so I took him in, as a foster. Unfortunately, he has some trauma from the time he spent on the streets, can react aggressively when he feels threatened, Salt absolutely MUST be in a dog-free home, with no small children, and should have an experienced, patient adopter, who can manage his reactivity. He also needs to learn how to play gently, without claws and teeth getting involved. Salt is: 2.5 years old Friendly to other cats Playful and curious FIV+ He enjoys: Bring brushed Observing human activity, especially cooking Looking out the window from his perch Teaser toys and catnip He hates: Dogs Salt has the potential to blossom into a sweet, loving cat, in the right home. He loves being with people, and wants to befriend our resident cats. Unfortunately, due to us having a dog, our home is not a good fit.

In desperate need to rehome. Her name is Sorry. She is a senior cat around 14. We have had her since she was 2 but due to our allergies she is in need of someone who can actually touch and pet her. She is such a lover and it breaks my heart she cannot receive that with us. She is front declawed and an inside only cat. She doesnt do well with other cats or dogs. Adoption fee will go towards vet check up when she’s adopted.

Story
I found Minnie outside starving. At the time I had no idea she was pregnant but when I found out I fostered her. She is estimated to be about two to three years of age and she is house trained and litter trained. I’m looking for a home that will give her the love and attention she deserves. She loves playing with toys and is obsessed with catnip! She enjoys crawling into your lap whenever she needs a hug. She is known to meow loudly when she feels she isn’t getting enough attention and she loves treats! Especially the yogurt cat treats. For some reason she enjoys plants and running around on hard wood floors. She gets along with other cats and is fixed and vaccinated. She’s been treated for worms and fleas. Her kittens have found homes and she had a healthy pregnancy. She acts like a kitten all of the time and just wants to be loved. She gets along with people and can be picked up, brushed, and I am able to clip her nails on my own.

Story
Captain is a kitty with sever Wobblers Syndrome. He does not need special medical attention for this but he's very wobbly. He's a calm, affectionate guy who just wants to lay around a buddy. My animals that I do have bully and attack him. Over the past year he's lost some weight and I'm afraid my other cat may attack him severally when I'm not home. He's great with kids. I have children who Ragdoll him around and he never even growls at them. He's so kind hearted and I'm looking for a loving home for him. ***CAPTAIN UPDATE*** After being in a different environment older children would be preferred.
