Story
Indy is a mellow, reserved gentleman who I've finally gained the trust of. He is a sweet cat who can be a big scardy cat at times. He will do best in a more clam paced environment. Indy we think is around 4 years old and he is FIV positive . He is at this time pretty healthy and not symptomatic . He is good with a litterbox and will be adopted to an indoor only home. He is neutered, microchipped, utd on vaccines felv negative and again is fiv +

Story
4/14/25- These boys are desperate! We can only keep them for another week or two before they have to go to the shelter. These boys are Tux and Tom! They're bonded litter mates that cant be separated. They got a lot of factors against them being black cats and bonded but they are the sweetest. They're very shy at first but when they warm up they want nothing more than to be your friend. They love our daughter and have been amazing with her. Tom is not dog friendly. Our dog is very sweet and playful but Tom unfortunately attacks out of defense. Unfortunately our dog was with us first and was never locked her up but we now have to lock her up while we're gone and it's not fair to her and we can't have aggression towards her. Tux is a VERY shy boy. But he is very loving. This is so hard for us to say goodbye, but they need somebody who can keep them together and give them the same love. They're very smart and are litter box trained and prefer daily or every other daily cleaning.

Story
I'm piggy I am a funny loving sweet girl. I got to the rescue as a kitten I wandered into a yard with a dog that kills cats and the lady there scooped me up to save me but then didn't know what to do with me so she brought me here to her friend who runs this rescue. I've been here ever since. I'd really like a home of my own although I'm quite happy here
