Story
Zelda came to us at 5weeks old. She turns 5 years on April 1st. She is absolutely adorable. Very affectionate, loves to cuddle and get pet. She's also very active and loves to play. She gets along well with our other cat and keeps her distance from the baby. She's been an indoor cat since we've bad her. She is absolutely wonderful, the reason we rehome her is because it's been overwhelming taking care of the cats and the baby so we want to find her a home where she gets the attention she deserves.

Story
Bramble had been rehomed to me by a neighbor. She was too disabled to take care of him and I have been fostering him in the meantime. He is a sweet boy who loves to cuddle and is very energetic. He loves people. The adoption fee will go to neutering and vaccinating him.

Story
Gypsy is one of two siblings that are a bonded pair. Her brother’s name is Ghost. They are two sides of the same coin. She is very friendly and lovable. She likes to play and has a lot of energy. She is a climber. She has a tendency to “talk” when she needs something. She is very loving of her brother and is very curious. She has been around a smaller dog for short periods of time. When her and her brother were kittens a dog jumped on their crate trying to attack them. They haven’t opened up to dogs, but she doesn’t hide. I am looking for someone who will show them both love and not separate them.

Story
Ghost has a sister Gypsy and they are a bonded pair. Ghost is a very loving cat who enjoys being groomed. He can be a little timid with people he doesn’t know at first. He isn’t as vocal as his sister, but if it’s been awhile since he has had attention he will let you know. He loves to play and he is not aggressive. When he wants to be petted he will stand by your chair or couch and reach over to tap you on the arm. He is full of personality and greets you at the door everyday. Both him and his sister are grazers and don’t have a special time to eat.
