Story
This sweet FeLV+ girl was found in our neighborhood on a very cold night and is now looking for her forever home. Mimi is estimated to be around 1 year old. She is spayed and has had her vaccines, flea prevention, FeLV/FIV test (positive for FeLV), and dewormer. [All vet records available to adopter.] She has the sweetest disposition and is very playful, affectionate, and kid-friendly. She will need to be in a home with no other cats or with other FeLV positive cats.

Story
We moved down here in 2023 and oir girl Maze pretty much came with the house, haha. She's very sweet, affectionate, and loves to lay with you on the couch. She loves belly rubs and practically helped raise our puppy Journey (he is now 2). She's a bit scared of smaller children, but is very gentle when approached. Unfortunately after a recent diagnosis it seems as if my entire body had a hard reset and I am very much allergic to her now. On top of that my husband just informed me of a PCS move to Texas (we are a military family) and I fear she wont do well on that trip due to her not really being in cars much. She's also VERY vocal when she needs something so you will always know if she requires a bit more water, or just attention. She's very independent but you must love cats as she can be a little diva. She's not destructive but she needs to have her scratching posts (one will be provided along with her automatic litterbox). Looking for a loving home for our girl.

Story
Nozomi aka Zozo or Zoey, it was born May 9, 2025. He’s great with kids. He loves to cuddle pretty playful when he warms up to it and I’ve had him since he was born. He’s a sucker for a treat and wet food not a big fan of having his claws trimmed and is always the perfect buddy to cuddle up with at night. I would appreciate rehoming him to someone that can meet his needs be his best friend and always look out for him. He’s the type of cat that will look for your attention, but isn’t a big fan of you trying too hard.

Story
Tarou aka Ruru or Rui, was rescued. I found him shortly after my own cat had had babies while I was rehoming them in town. I would guess that Rui was born around June or July. If you have kids, he would definitely have to adjust like he has adjusted with mine. He’s a pretty skittish cat but the other cat I have listed here is his best friend more like his brother. Rui is not a fan of bath or getting his nails cut whatsoever. He can be pretty playful when he’s comfortable, but he does enjoy having his back scratched. He’s a fiend for wet food and definitely prefers it. He does not like dogs at all and he’s pretty curious boy I would definitely say he’s a sweetie once he gets used to people. If you’re looking for a cat, that will cuddle up to you at night search no more!
