Story
Charlie and Eddie are litter mates and a bonded pair our family got from a neighbor 4 years ago. They’re 4 years old and have been declawed in the front. They’re indoor/outdoor kitties who like to snuggle inside but like the freedom to roam too. Charlie is very playful while Eddie is a bit more standoffish. Eddie has a white spot on his chin and more white on his back paws - otherwise they’re very similar in appearance. Eddie will take longer to warm up to you but he’s very loving once you earn his trust, but Charlie pretty much likes everyone. Our family loves the boys but with a cross country move and things being more in flux than before, I felt it was the loving thing to do for them. Charlie and Eddie deserve to have their stability and we can’t offer that anymore.

Story
The cat showed up on our deck before the cold weather set in January 2024, we caught it and brought into the house. Took it to the VCA vet, had it checked out and had its shots updated, because we have 2 cats at home and did not want any problems. We looked for lost cats, sent out pictures of the cat to see if any one is looking for it. Since or 2 cats do not get along with it, we want to rehome it o a good family. The cat is very personable and would like someone who will cuddle and pet it. The vet said it was approximately 2 yearns old. We are having it spayed on April 19, 2024.

Story
King Boo is a very sweet cat who loves to cuddle on your lap. I adopted him in 2021 when his original owners needed to rehome him as they were relocating and couldn't take him with them. In thay time, he's lived with a medium sized Australian Shepherd and they had no issues. When I adopted two kittens in 2022, that's when I began to notice issues. He doesn't do well with other cats and can get very jealous and acts out aggressively toward them. Unfortunately I've come to the decision where he is best suited for a home where there are no other cats. I know he can do well with dogs and his previous owner did have a young daughter whom he did well with. I will miss this sweet boy. He is potty trained and hasn't experienced any difficulty using the litter box. King Boo can be very vocal, nothing pets or play time can't handle. He is food motivated and is still playful. Loves to sit on laps and to sleep next to you. Indoor only cat, up to day with shots and is microchipped.

Story
Taco can be pretty shy. He prefers quiet environments. Taco is currently homed with an older dog, and a younger cat. While he does get along with both, he definitely does not like other animals. He can be very territorial and prefers lots of space. When stressed, he can be aggressive. I've had him since he was a kitten, and I love him very much. I'm not in a hurry to rehome him, but if the right household came along, then I would love for him to be happy.
