Story
Meet Winnie; a sweet and spirited 5-year-old cat who is as affectionate as she is sassy. She loves attention, cuddles, and being close to her people, but she also has a playful, independent side that keeps things entertaining. Winnie enjoys spending time outside during the day if it's nice out (supervised or in a safe outdoor area) and lounging inside in the evenings. She's spayed, healthy, and litter trained. Thank you for helping me find the perfect home for Winnie. ** Winnie's brother, Pete, is also listed here and would be nice if they stayed together but is not necessary.

Story
Meet Pete, a smart and loving 5-year-old cat with a big heart and an even bigger personality. Pete is the kind of cat who likes to be involved; he'll check in on everyone (pets and people alike) and make sure all is well. He's affectionate, curious, and enjoys being the leader of the household. Pete gets along well with other animals, and he naturally takes on a gentle, protective role. He's neutered, healthy, and litter trained. Thank you for helping me find the perfect new home for Pete. ** Pete's sister, Winnie, is also listed here and would be nice if they stayed together but is not necessary.

Story
I adopted Spice while I lived abroad. At the time she lived in a small condo with about ten other cats, which is why I would say she is not very fond of other cats. I believe she would prefer to be the only cat in the house, or would prefer to share the space with an older, less energetic cat. I currently have her and another cat who loves to play with other cats, so I know she prefers to play with toys and people more. He is too high energy for her and I think she would enjoy a more peaceful home with less roughhousing than my other cat allows. But she really does love when you grab a toy and play with her that way! She is a sweet girl, just very slow to warm to new people and easily scared. It took her a long time to start sleeping right next to me, but now she does at every opportunity! If I am on the bed, so is she. She has really come a long way since I adopted her, so I want to find someone who is caring and patient with her and will come to love her even more than I do.

We found the cat outside. We were planning on keeping her bc she is sweet and cuddles and had no issues but my daughter is allergic. Comes with a self cleaning litter box that we purchased recently.

Story
Lady is a great cat (about 7 years old). She was adopted by my daughter several years ago and has been a great companion for her. She recently moved in with her boyfriend who is deathly allergic to cats so we have been taking care of Lady for about a year now. Unfortunately, our existing cat (a girl) and Lady just do not see eye to eye. We've been trying a year to assimilate them and it's just not working out so we would like to find Lady a new and happy forever home. She did get along well with another cat my daughter had, but for some reason not our existing one. Lady is super friendly and affectionate and quirky. She is always hungry and will steal the bread loaf off the counter if you aren't careful :) but she is super easy, uses her litter box without fail, and naps and is just easy to be around.
