Story
This is Gigi, my sweet 8-week-old tortoiseshell kitten. She’s full of personality — playful, loving, and always ready to cuddle or chase anything that moves. Gigi’s been raised with tons of love since birth, and she’s already litter trained and super social. She’s got that tortie attitude in the cutest way, and she’ll keep you smiling all day. I didn’t plan for my cat to have kittens, and letting Gigi go is breaking my heart — but I know she deserves a home where she’ll be spoiled and truly loved. If you’re serious about giving her a safe and happy life, please reach out. She’s one of a kind.

Story
Neighborhood stray (most likely dumped) who I had TNR so his ear is clipped. Estimated to be about 3 years old. Friendly after a warm-up period but dogs & kids unknown. He gets along pretty well with my indoor cats but since he lived outside for an undetermined amount of time he prefers to spend most of the day outside and comes in at night. He craves pets & attention - the poor sweet guy just wants to be loved! I have not tried to keep him indoors full time so I don't know how well he'd do as a strictly indoor cat but since I live on a busy street I don't feel comfortable leaving him outside much longer. I believe he'd do well as a cared-for barn cat, or an indoor/outdoor on a larger property away from busy traffic.

Story
Hobbs is a former feral who I trapped & had neutered 4.5 years ago, along with his female friend. Age is guessed between 6-7 years old. They were both supposed to be temporary fosters, but they kind of never left! He has transformed from a severely wounded and terrified feral to a loveable house cat. He's a lover and wants attention, and generally wants to be friends with your other cats, but it will take him a bit of time to adjust, of course. Kids & dogs unknown. He's a talker! I'm hesitant to try to rehome him without his girl (appx same age but small dilute tortie) because they're usually together 24/7, but she is definitely still fearful of people; it's taken almost the entire 4.5 years for my husband and I to be able to pick her up. I only ask that if Hobbs seems miserable without her, you either agree to take her as well, or return him to me and I will then try to rehome both of them together. He's litterbox trained and has no behavioral issues, other than talking a LOT!

Story
Mia came to us back in September as a stray that we worked on acclimating to our home. She had gotten her shots but still hadn’t been spayed before she ran away. She came back pregnant. I have since been able to find homes for all but one kitten. She gets along well with her babies but has continued to struggle to get along with our other two cats at home. She will randomly lash out without any provocation at the other cats. She stays in a separate room with a tall gate so she can see things going on but she is an inside cat who now doesn’t want to go back outside. She is such a sweet and chill cat otherwise. She also loves to play with feather wands. She has also since been spayed and just finished recovering. I would love for her to find a home with her 2 month old boy, Cooper. He is in the process of getting his shots.

Story
Snickers is a very affectionate and playful cat, and would be happy in a home with another cat or where people do not work 12 hour days. My work schedule changed and I feel horrible leaving her alone all day, but getting another pet is not an option. She really wants to be around people and to be loved on. I can give all of her equipment/supplies that I have. I am not sure how she is with kids or dogs. It is very important that she eats that specific food (IAMS indoor) but it can be found in any grocery store and is not expensive. This also means she cannot have any treats, etc. As she will get a rash in her mouth. But again- no issues as long as she’s only fed that food.

Story
Rooney might be a relatively plain cat on the outside, but she’s got a big personality! She’s brave and adventurous, and, of all her siblings, she always is the one leading the way to explore new spaces and people. Over the months, she's become a very communicative and affectionate girl. She lets you know when she wants a little bit of love, and she's always happy to jump up in your lap. She gets along well with her siblings and has always been a good playmate. She absolutely loves to chase wand toys and has gotten a lot of fun out chasing down springs and ping pong balls. Her curiosity is unmatched by any of her siblings, and she loves adventuring out of the room she stays in, when we can let her. Her mother and four siblings showed up under our porch in early June 2024, and we wanted to be sure they found good, safe homes instead of remaining strays or going to the animal shelter. We are not able to keep her long term, and her mother has not been friendly with any of her kittens.
