Story
I acquired Carl with his brother, Rory, from the same litter when a stray in the neighborhood got pregnant. He is now 6 years old and much larger than he was when I got him (around 17 lbs). He is super snuggly and clingy, and wants to be wherever you are. He loves to meet new people but is cautious about other animals (he always comes around though). He is good with dogs, usually ignoring them unless they are over friendly, in which case he will run away. He loves ranch, yogurt, and watching TV.

Found her in a parking lot of a church in the middle of nowhere. Extremely sweet cat that has no fear. Jumped right in my car and got in the backseat with my dog immediately when I found her. Very playful and cuddly - wants to be held and pet all the time.

Story
My mother Janet will be moving into an Assisted Living facility, and we must find a home for her cat Lucy, whom she adopted when she was a semi-feral kitten and who is not suited to the new living situation. As such, we must find a new home for Lucy. A beautiful tortoiseshell, she is not an easy cat, mostly due to the fact that she hides, hisses at new people and other animals, and she occasionally swats and scratches. Please keep this in mind as you consider whether she is a right fit for you. I promised mom that I would not send Lucy to a shelter or put her down—things I wouldn't want to do anyway, especially if there is a cat lover out there who has a track record of providing a loving home to more challenging cats. Please help make sure this already difficult transition a little easier by giving my mother the peace of mind that Lucy is going to a good home.

Story
Help Cat Lovers, We had a feral mom-cat have kittens under our shed--we were able to trap 2 and have them fixed with shots and we kept them in a spare room to begin domesticating them. After a time, my wife's younger brother --a cat lover--adopted these cats and they lived with him the last 3 years. Sadly Ron passed away suddenly in September. We have been taking care of them, but have to move them out of his house. We are temporarily living in a small apartment and have a 14 year old diabetic cat, and can't take on any more at this time. They need a loving home--someone who will be patient while they acclimate to a new house and environment. They will be skittish at first, and will need to be kept inside. There is no adoption fee, in fact we will provide (monthly) cat food and cat litter for the next year. If needed we will also provide crates for initial time period while they get used to their new family. We are located in Chattanooga, TN. Will add pictures soon.

Story
Tawny is 6 months old. She is from a liter of 5 from a stray neighborhood cat. She has been fostered from age 8 weeks. She and her siblings were semi feral when I took them in. It took a few weeks for her to trust humans. She is playful and very sweet. Loves to sit in your lap and be petted. She loves playing and wrestling with other cats. She would do best in a home with other kittens or with one of her siblings. Tawny is very shy around new people. She would do best in a home on the quieter side and with a kitten friend.
