Story
Would like for her and her sister Mia to go together. And maybe her mom willow too. Good friendly cats just don't have the means anymore. Needs a clean home. Other animals are fine as long as they are not full of energy and Will chase them. All are fixed and healthy. Her and mom are fat rolly polly cats. Name noodles cause when you pick her up she is like a limp noodle. Love getting bellies rubbed. Sister Mia is little squirrely but friendly little cuddles too. Noodles loves to lay on your leg when sitting.

Story
Smokey has been recently diagnosed with diabetes and needs insulin shots. My family is struggling financially and can not keep up with the vet visits he needs. We are also not home enough to guarantee he gets his shots on a routine basis. He is suffering because of this. I hope someone out there has the heart and the time to give him the best life, I'm sad that I do not.

Story
This is Kaida. I adopted her on 9/29/2024 when she was about 10 wks old. She is spayed and UTD on all vaccines including boosters, deworming, and rabies. She is cuddly, loving, and attention seeking with a huge personality and zero respect for personal space. She waits in the window for me to get home, runs to the couch for her required greeting kiss, and will follow you, strangers included, yelling until you comply. Privacy does not exist. Bathroom trips are group events and she will sit on your lap like it is her job. She has severe FOMO, demands head scratches. She is also very bougie. Seafood wet food only and it must be shreds or chunks. Fridays are spa night with grooming, nails, and collar selection. Her litter box must be cleaned twice daily or she will protest right next to it. She prefers the loudest toy at 3 a.m. and is emotionally intuitive, alerting you if someone is upset. Ideal home. Calm, loving adult home, no small kids, fine with dogs. ***ASK WHY REHOMING***

Story
Ember is a lovable 2 yr. old, spayed cat. She was house raised. I got her from a litter my brother-in-law had. Ember, would love someone to play with and cuddle with. I have a busy life and need to simplify my life a bit financially. I love her and will miss her but I will feel better about it if she is going to a loving home. She had all her shots when she was spayed a year ago. I have not had her to a vet since then. She has always been an indoor cat.

Story
Shadow showed up on my daughter’s porch. Her and her husband do TNR and neighbors know it. This beautiful regal lady was way too friendly to be a feral. But they caught her right away and took her to be neutered and her shots. Daughter and husband have three cats already so I offered to foster her until we find a furever home for her. I was hoping it would have been with me, I think she is about a year old….still has a lot of playing to do. Oh, and she is very inquisitive about everything! I have adopted a 7 year old lady recently and Shadow is just too much for her. I have had to separate them, doing room swapping. My little girl is afraid of Shadow. 😞 It has become urgent to rehome her now due to my medical issues and upcoming surgeries.
