Butters

American Shorthair

Male, Young
Hamburg, PA

Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Butters was abandoned and sook shelter up on our porch during the wintertime. He was young, probably only a year old, and he was sick when we took him in. He recovered very quickly; he is very resilient. He is very sweet, quiet, and relaxed, but he still loves to play with everything from laser pointers to little toy mice. He gets along decently well with other cats- there are some with fur colors that remind him of neighborhood cats who weren’t kind to him when he was abandoned- but he would be perfect as the center of attention in your home.

Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Sophie is a cute, cuddly 8-year-old female cat whose elderly owner has to move into a hospice facility in January 2026. She had a rough kittenhood on the streets but as an adult has settled into domestic life. Sophie is healthy and has been receiving annual vet care. Unfortunately, her owner, in declining physical health and also caring for a second cat that has bullied Sophie, has been neglecting to provide Sophie with a clean litter box of her own, which has resulted in some litter box avoidance. Ideally, Sophie needs an experienced cat owner who provide her with a clean litter box and be a little patient as she adjusts back to a proper litter protocol. Sophie's sweet personality will reward you with lots of love and affection!

Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Cassandra is a 10-year-old female cat who was adopted from a shelter several years ago. Her current owner is elderly and must move into a hospice in January 2026, so she needs a new home as soon as possible. Cassandra is a mature, independent, and undemanding girl who will serenely watch you go about your daily activities from her favorite perch. She is a bit territorial when it comes to other cats, so she would do best in a household where she is the only cat. Cassandra is healthy, active, and has been receiving annual vet checks. Although she is 10 years old, she has years of love left to give.

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.
