Story
Miss jingle is a small but fiesty fur ball who loves hanging in high places whether that be her cat tower or your shoulders. Her favorite places to sleep are anywhere soft and warm or cuddled up on your chest. She’s a very curious and lovable kitty and would make a great addition to any family. Unfortunately because she is a runt and quite small she tends to be bullied by others so her relationship with other cats are hit or miss. She tends to be okay with any calmer animals who don’t chase after her. Unfortunately do to our current living situation we’ve had multiple people move in with us who have pets and they aren’t so kind to her so I’ve had to make the heart breaking to decision to do what’s best for her and find her a better living situation. Please give this beautiful girl a good home where she can thrive and be at peace 🐱

Story
Inkwell (“Inky”) – 2-year-old male catInkwell is a large, two-year-old cat. He’s friendly and affectionate, especially with women, and would likely do best in a home with a female adopter. He has been cautious around men, though he may warm up with time.He does well with children and knows his name—he’ll come when called. He enjoys attention, belly rubs, toys, and catnip. He’s also a good hunter and will catch mice and insects.Adopter Preference:Inkwell has shown a strong preference for women and is more relaxed and affectionate with them. He can be unsure around men, so a female adopter—or someone willing to give him extra time and patience—would be the best fit for him.

Story
Parker is a stray that was living under our house this past spring, one day it was storming and he ran into house and hasn't left. He must have had a hard time being a stray because his one ear is a little scarred and he has a very timid personality with other cats. He loves his humans and his cozy cat bed. He loves pets, treats and windows. I think he would be fine around kids, after an adjustment period because he just wants love. He is socialized with other cats. He is litterbox trained. We live in an area where strays are very common. We've tried to help as many as we can. My living situation is changing & I can't take all the cats with me, which breaks my heart. I can help out Parker's new family with a starter kit of sorts. A used but clean litterbox, some food, a bag of litter, his favorite bed and 1 month of flea and tick treatment for the warmer months coming up. Thank you for considering this sweet boy.

Story
Loki is a sweet guy. We found him when he was around 6 weeks old and was sick with a respiratory infection. We nursed him back to health and have given him 5 wonderful years with us. He loves to cuddle and will purr the whole time he's with you. He loves to play with his toy (Fetch is his favorite) and he does like going outside on a leash. My husband and I brought home our daughter in July of 2025 and with her being more mobile now it has been stressing Loki out and we are hoping to find him a home that will be less stressful for him. It hurts us to see him go because he is such a love but we both agree it's not fair for us to put him in a stressful environment even though we love him so much. He is on a Hills Urinary Tract food. The vet had said they didn't find crystals in his bladder but it was looking a bit aggravated.

Story
Chia is a fun-loving, easygoing, and incredibly sweet on everyone she meets. Her favorite spot is on the couch right next to you getting back and belly rubs. Chia is patient with kids and currently lives with her sister cat, Kiki. While she would love to find a home with Kiki, she could also thrive on her own as long as she gets plenty of love (and snacks)!Sadly, we are moving across the country and renting, so we are unable to keep our pets. Due to the move, we are frequently travelling and hardly home, so she deserves to be in a home where she can be loved and receive the attention she needs.
