She is a was sweet chatty baby. She loves to chrip at you and cuddle when you are sitting down anywhere. She likes to sleep with you and will follow you around. I love her so much but I am no longer able to care for her. My landlord has restricted the amount of cats allowed and added a pet fee. I cannot afford to find a new place or keep her at my current place. Please give her a loving home

Story
Mouse is a quiet, outgoing kitty who lives to love. Her perfect day would include a game of chase and hide and seek, some playful petting, then to cuddle up on your lap and purr for hours. She loves sprawling out in the sun and watching out windows, plays with people and independently. Mouse was rescued as a tiny kitten 4 years ago and was almost mistaken as a mouse, hence her name. She does well around kids and can acclimate to other cats, but is very afraid of dogs. She is low maintenance, eats dry food and does not beg or try to steal people food. She has so much love and cuddles to give and needs someone to share them with and to appreciate her sweetness.

Story
Say hello to Hilda! This pretty old lady came to us in October of 2025 due to the current pet in the home not accepting her. She is quite the shy girl, preferring to nap away on the top shelf of her kennel — until a tasty treat is offered, that is! Food is the quickest way to her heart, especially in the form of a lickable treat or wet food. Once she warms up to you, Hilda is a sweetheart who likes to cuddle and absolutely loves a good head scratch! She can be fairly vocal about things she likes (and doesn't like) and certainly demands the pampered life she deserves. We have not seen much playful behavior from Hilda, but we suspect she likes to play when no one's watching as her toys are always moved around. In her previous home, it became evident that Hilda prefers a chill life. She'd do best as the only cat in the home or with a male cat companion. We have not seen her with dogs. Hilda is great with respectful, calm children but fearful of younger and louder children. Hilda is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

The son of another cat that we are hoping to find a new home for. She gave birth to Gherbo around 8-10 months ago, and we’ve had him since. Very friendly and energetic! We would love to keep him if we had a way to, but so far that doesn’t seem like an option
