Story

His name is cheetoh like the chips. He was my sisters cat in New York but she was very allergic so I took him in because she didn’t want him to go to a bad home he is 11 months old he is neutered. He is very friendly once he is comfortable and not scared. He is playful and gentle. I love him so much! Wish I could keep him but unfortunately new landlord does not want pets. I want him to be in a great loving home! He is friendly with kids as well. Over all an amazing loving cat!

Story

She found our house 5 months ago. We found her skinny and starved for attention. Fed her outside 3 times a day and she learned to trust us and learned how much she was looking for someone to love her. and then one day she brought us her kittens. We found help for them and she was very happy. We brought her in and made her feel loved. Arl took care of her with neutering and vaccines and we play with her, feed her and realize how she needs a loving family that can match her energy and can love her as much as we have. We are older and cannot give her the attention she deserves. Little two year old baby has been through a lot. She is looking forward to spending time with a living family where she can be spoiled as an only pet

Story

🐾 Loving Indoor Cats Seeking Safe, Stable Homes It breaks my heart to write this, but due to recent job loss and housing instability, I’m needing to find safe, loving forever homes for my cats. This decision is being made out of love and responsibility, not convenience. Datty has been indoor-only, well cared for, and deeply loved. She is used to a calm home environment and deserve stability, consistency, and affection. About Datty: • Indoor-outside(Outside optional) • Litter box trained • Used to being handled and living in a home • Socialized and affectionate in their own ways • Raised with care and attention What I’m Looking For: • A stable, indoor-only home • Someone who understands that pets are family, not temporary • Willing to keep in touch or provide updates (optional but preferred) • Vet references or basic pet history a plus A small rehoming fee will apply — not for profit, but to ensure serious, responsible placement. Thank you for reading with compassion. 🤍

American Shorthair

Female, Adult

Lititz, PA

Size

(when grown) -

Details

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!
