Story
This is Thea. She loves to play and run. She is sweet and purrs a lot. Sadly she was born with a deformed vertebrae and it doesn’t allow her to control her bowl movements. She knows what the litter box is but her body just does what it wants. We’ve had her since she was 8 weeks old. She is now 5-6 months old. We took her in from a friend to help and foster her but her condition became something we can’t handle anymore. She’s been around 2 male grown cats and loves to play with them. From what I know she hasn’t been around dogs or kids.

Winston is a gentle, curious little cat with a heart full of love and a nose for adventure. He pads through his days like a tiny explorer, greeting every sunbeam as if it were an old friend. His favorite moments are the quiet ones—curling up beside someone he trusts, purring softly as if to say, “You’re my safe place.” Life is changing for Winston’s family, and though he is deeply loved, he now needs a new home where he can continue to feel safe, warm, and adored. He’s social, snuggly, and happiest when he’s near his people. Winston isn’t just looking for a house—he’s searching for a heart to belong to. If you’re ready for a loyal companion who brings comfort, curiosity, and sweetness to every day, Winston is waiting to meet you. Let his next chapter begin with you.

Story
We got Gil as a kitten from a friend. He’s been with us for 2 1/2 years. Gil is a sweet, spunky cat. He loves to play…sometimes fetch! When in the mood, he enjoys a cozy nap on your lap. Occasionally he’ll sleep through the night in bed with you. Gil enjoys going outside and sticking close to home. Mostly he just likes to watch the world around him and sometimes try to catch something, which he rarely does. We have another cat. Gil is definitely the boss. But they get along with the occasional cat scuffle. Unfortunately, Gil is a bit territorial and for some reason has taken a dislike to one of our daughters. When she visits, he’s unkind. We’ve tried all sorts of things and he’s made up his mind. So, we can’t keep him. We think he’d do great in a different home. He’s truly a sweet cat and we’d love to see him in a home that can handle him.

Story
Meet Cat Burglar, the sweetest little sneaky boy you’ll ever love. He’s currently an indoor–outdoor cat who uses a dog door and sticks close to home, but he’d be perfectly happy living fully indoors—he’s litter-box trained and loves the cozy life. He’s not a fan of being picked up, but the second you sit down he becomes a total snuggle bug and will curl right into your lap. He gets along wonderfully with dogs (he even plays with them!), though we aren’t sure how he does with other cats. He’d do best with older kids who understand gentle boundaries. He has a grade-2 heart murmur that doesn’t affect his health, and he’s fully up to date on shots, deworming, and flea/tick prevention. We love him deeply and making this decision is absolutely heartbreaking, but our daughter’s cat allergies have become severe, and we want to do what’s best for both her and him. He deserves a safe, loving home where he can keep being the affectionate little companion he is
