Story
Skye Female, DSH, solid gray with white dot on chest, 2-3 years old, 9 lbs Would prefer to be an only cat, older children only, not dog tested Skye so desperately wants to love and be loved but needs to adjust to home life after being on her own, probably since kittenhood. She was found living under a house near a dangerously busy intersection. We believe she recently had a litter of kittens but they were nowhere to be found. She is timid and skittish but will rub against your legs and lean in for cheek rubs! She currently spends most of the day under the bed or couch but will come out late in the evening for some affection and treats! She is definitely nocturnal but will spend much of the night sleeping with her foster mom. Skye loves to be pet and will come when called only with proper motivation, like treats! She is food-motivated and loves catnip! She does not like to be held, but oddly, does not run when her foster mom tries to pick her up! Skye will need a cat savvy family with plenty of patience to work with a cat who has probably been on her own all her life. She has only been in rescue a short time so is still getting acclimated to home life. Her foster mom is convinced that, with time, she will become a wonderful, loving and loyal companion! Adoption fee of $110 covers all vetting including spay/neuter surgery, vaccines, microchip, FIV/FELV test and any other medical that may be required while in rescue.

Story
Knives was found outside in 100°F weather, the "owners" gave her to us because they knew we wanted her to be inside and well kept. Since then she has mellowed out but really wants to be with you. She loves playing with other PEOPLE, and loves to be pet and rubbed on the face. She's best friends with our Dog but she has no experience with other dogs besides him. She gets along with our cat Leo but falcon and Leo are older and don't have the energy she has. PLEASE keep her in the home. We want her to be loved by people who will take care of her.

Story
Her name is Umami but I call her Uma. When I found her, it was sometime in the middle of winter. I lived on the third floor of an apartment complex where the majority tenants were college students. I would hear a cat screaming at night when the temperature would get too frigid. We couldn't find one anywhere on the ground floor near the apartment in the bushes or near the dumpsters. One night, I was heading out when I passed by her on my way down stairs. We discovered that her owners, kept her out on the porch/balcony of their apartment on the third floor. She was still a kitten at this point, maybe a few months old. We knocked on the owner's door and asked to take her. They agreed. She was unvaccinated and unspayed, but she was very sweet and full of energy. The reason I’m rehoming her is because I believe the other cats in the house are stressing her out. She doesn’t play as much anymore and she hides more. [continued in the diet section]
