Story
***COURTESY POST*** Stella Belle was lucky to find us last winter. She was trapped and went thru the SPCA TNR clinic. We found out she was already spayed, tame, and had owners at one time in her life. We had planned to keep her but she does not like the company of other cats. They give her extreme stress when she is near them. She needs a home with a calm environment where she is the only pet and will enjoy life as the diva she is. We believe she may have been abused in her former home and later dumped. She may be shy for a short period of time in a new home. She only hides if she fears danger of some sort. She loves to be brushed for a few minutes a day- she bonds quickly with the person who brushes her and feeds her. She likes to have a container of quality dry food out at all times. She likes 1/2 a can of gravy flavors canned food twice a day and temptation treats. She is great with the litter box but likes it cleaned daily. She uses cardboard and sisal scratching posts. When she becomes comfortable in her new home, she will want to sit on your lap and be in the same room as you are. She is very talkative and expressive. She is small in stature with munchkin legs. She responds to her name, the only one she accepted after tons of suggestions. The vet thinks she is around 3 years old. She was a good patient at her first vet visit. We must have a vet reference to adopt her. She will get her shots updated when she has a committed new human to love her. She must be a 100% indoor cat. Her life outside was traumatic for her trying to survive. If, for some reason, she does not work out in your household we will take her back. For more info, you can text Charla at 717-495-5647 or call 717-854-8663 if interested in giving her a second chance at a safe life as an indoor only cat. November 5, 2024, 8:51 pm

Story
This adorable little guy was abandoned by his mother. He appears to be between 8 to 10 weeks old. He is a very sweet, affectionate, playful boy. I would love to keep him, however I have two senior cats that are grumpy old boys and are not accepting of this little guy. Looking to find a warm, loving home.

Story
Tractor was dropped off at Tractor Supply Company with a note that said “can’t afford vet bills, please help her”. She needs a specialized diet of Science Diet Z/D and has a prescription for prednisone. That seems to help with her allergies. She’s allergic to practically everything so she needs someone who can fully understand and afford her care. She is extremely sweet and loves to be pet. Shes not a lap cat but she will curl up near you. She’s not a big fan of my dog, but does tolerate her. My cats do not like Tractor so I am unsure if she is good with other cats.
