Story
Simba is a 7-year-old sweetheart with the perfect balance of calm affection and playful curiosity. He is in good overall health, with only mild dental plaque that will benefit from routine care, and he has so much love left to give. Curious by nature, Simba delights in exploring his world. New sounds, interesting scents, and anything he can bat or chase quickly become his favorite discoveries. He has a charming way of turning everyday moments into tiny adventures, always approaching life with gentle enthusiasm. When his curiosity is satisfied, Simba is more than happy to settle in close. He adores quiet companionship, soft affection, and simply being near his people. He is the kind of cat who makes a home feel warmer just by being there. Simba would thrive in a home that appreciates both his playful spark and his calm, loving heart. If you are looking for a loyal companion who can make you smile during the day and curl up beside you at night, Simba may be the perfect match.

Gracie is 8 1/2 yrs/old. Very healthy. Family member just recently passed away. Gracie does not have front claws. She is very sweet and lovely. Once she gets use to you she will sit on your lap to pet with lots of purring. She is a cat that likes her alone time and gets withdrawn if it is to noisy. She is well behaved with no bad habits.

Story
Simba is a loving and good boy. He was a stray I took off the streets and got him fixed as well as all his vaccines at that time. He does not get along with female cats and acts out because of it such as messing on the floor near his litter box (fecal only.) I truly believe he only does this because he is unhappy. He used the litter box before the other cats came in. He was fixed at 3 years old but was a bit late so he still has sexual drive typically only at night. He would be best with no other cats, especially females. He really is a good boy given the right atmosphere.

Story
Hello, Her name is Kyrah and she is about 3 years old. Born sometime in December of 2022. We’ve had her since April of 2023 and she is a sweetheart. She is fully liter trained and we’ve only given her dry food. She has an automatic litterbox and an automatic water and food dispenser so she eats whenever she wants. We’ve have expanded our family recently and can no longer give her the attention that she needs. She is not needy though but I feel bad that we have not been able to pay much attention to her because of our new baby and lots of changes over this past year. She does get along with kids but mostly keeps to herself. We would like her to go to a new home that is loving and can give her the attention she needs.
