Story
We’ve had this cat for 4 years, we got her as a kitten. She’s vaccinated. She has been a perfect cat for all of her life, we have 2 other cats as well. We had 2 daughters over the course of the last 3 years. During this time, Stelly has started to do her bowel movements outside of her litter box. She has never urinated outside of her litter box, only bowel movements. I’ve tried different litter boxes, different litter, different litter box locations, different litter box cleaning procedures and everything else. Most recently I’ve taken her to the vet to make sure there wasn’t anything medically wrong, and all tests came back clear. She’s perfectly healthy. She used to be the only cat, but after having 2 more join her a few years ago and our children now, the vets have said it’s most likely behavioral issues. A perfect house hold for her would be one where she is the only cat. She’s a very loving and beautiful cat, ready for another owner to give their love and affection towards.

Story
I acquired Kai 1 week before Halloween she went into my daughter's school. She was Itty bitty, I think she was dropped off. She is 7 year's old. I'm looking for someone who is responsible and attentive. My girl is needy for attention, she loves constant rubs and butt wiggles. Someone who doesn't mind her jumping on the bed. Can keep up with her active life style (loves to play) has favorite toys. Has children who won't torment her. She is good around my 17 year old cat because they grew up together, my fish were never harmed, nor my turtles and she seems to hold conversations with the guinea pigs, they were never harmed either. Never been introduced to dogs but acts like a guard dog. Great around guest. Kai is..fun, lovable, vocal, sometimes shy,playful, affectionate, Curious, soft, people friendly, picky eater, naughty at times, early riser, family friendly, needy, pampered, funny, warm eyes, loyal, sweet baby.

Story
Mama arrived at our back door last March, pregnant, and had 4 beautiful kittens, which we found loving homes for. We have been taking care of her in our home with our other cats. She is very sweet and would make someone very happy. She is spayed, she's up to date on shots (7/16/25) dewormed (5/8/26), and tested for FELV/FIV/HW all negative (5/8/26), and have been using a flea/tick preventative. We already have 4 cats (each of our 4 kids has their own) and we cannot keep her with us. We are moving and would love for them to find a home where she can cuddle with her new family.

Story
Tam is a sassy calico that I found while on a walk in the woods with my mom. She's a bit of a "princess" archetype. With her short meow and expectant glare, she implies that she's the most important thing in the room. She'll demand both of your hands for attention, or the hairbrush all to herself for two hours, or else you've not spoiled her enough. She tolerates other cats, albeit with a bit of her own attitude. Tam won't scream or lash out at other cats, but she will lightly bat in their direction as if to insist she's the boss. She prefers humans over her own kind, since they can spoil her as she believes she deserves. Because of this, Tam is better suited to a home with few other cats. Due to increased stress in the home from medical grievances, Tam has started pooping in strange places. Since this behavior started only after the new stressor, it will most likely subside once she's found her own little castle.

Story
Saber is a clingy, non-picky eater who just wants all of your attention. He's sociable enough with other cats, although he doesn't respect the idea of "separate" food servings (all of them are his). Saber will eat just about anything, including things he really shouldn't, like chocolate. It doesn't matter you've put it on a high shelf, he'll knock everything down on his way to get the goods. When you come home, Saber will be yapping away, trying to get you to hold him. He likes a good brushing and will accept kisses. As long as the tap isn't running, he takes baths well, too! I don't know Saber's exact age, since I found him as a stray, but based on his saber-tooth-long teeth, he's gotta be ancient. He's got roundworms, but that doesn't stop him from being a social cuddlebug with everything to say.
