Story
I call her Goldie due to her beautiful golden eyes. She was a stray who has come everyday for petting and food since late last summar. I wanted (and still do) to bring her inside and bring her into my family She is a LOVING & SWEET CAT and it hard to believe she was feral. HOWEVER, I have a mommy cat and her 4 kittens I watched being born who are now 15-year old house cats. I cannot expose my "old ladies" to the anxiety of a stranger in the house. Plus I am now 75 years old.Through a blood test, the Vet discovered FiV which is no danger to humans & can only be transmitted to other cats through sexual activity or biting. Spaying & living indoors prevent these possibilities. Goldie IS NOT ILL. She is very well, active, cuddly and so cute.She's hasn't minded it inside my spare room for weeks now as I've had her spayed, vaccinated & chipped. Best case scenario for this precious girl is to be loved as an ONLY and INSIDE cat. I'll foster her until you find her. You won't regret

Story
Well, I’ve lived here for about 10 years. I had some cats living in my shed and then of course they had babies and then those babies had babies so this is kind of the third set. There’s only four they live outside. They just need some love and be indoors. I could not bring them indoors. I had dogs and like 7 cats so I couldn’t bring them in so I just took care of them made it as comfortable as possible so that they could stay warm out of the wind. But junior is a black and white tuxedo kind of guy, mama is tiger gray in the middle with white on her front legs and back legs. Then theres Tony, he is a tiger striped gray cat with a little bit of orange coloring in the middle of his head, very cute. then there angel. She looks to be maybe a calico cat but she looks pastel looking real soft colors. When it’s time to eat, They all r very playful. They play in the yard run around and chase each, need loving home. They are in order as, It goes junior, mama, Tony and angel. They are very sweet

Story
Meet Tornado. Her estimated birthday is 1/22/26. She is fixed, UTD on shots and dewormed. She is litter box trained. This sweet little girl is a little shy at first but when she gets to know you. She will be your best friend. She is great with other cats and good with dogs. She is the perfect kitty for a multiple pet home. She loves to give kisses and be very affectionate. She is super playful. When you are trying to do anything on your laptop or computer, she loves to try to help by either walking on your key board or rubbing up against you to get you to pay attention to her and not what you are doing. When it comes to nap time she loves to cuddle up either next to you or with other cats. Will do best with other cats in the house to play with and let her cuddle up with them
