Story
Mimi is a dearly loved, affectionate, well-behaved cat. If our son hadn't developed cat allergies, we'd keep her. She has no bad behavior issues: doesn't scratch furniture; never marked territory with urine; doesn't cry outside our bedroom door for food if we want to sleep-in late; doesn't scratch or bite; doesn't jump on the counters; cooperates nicely at vet visits; she's tidy w/ litter box. Her temperament is calm and affectionate. She loves to be held and to sit in our laps, purring, several times a day. She stays mostly indoors, but likes some time in the yard. She is a decent mouser. She is shy with new people and slow to warm, but loyal. Once she trusts you, even if she hasn't seen you in years, she'll come right to your lap. Born in 2012 (11 yrs.old). She is spayed and has had all her annual physicals and vaccinations. If you have time for daily petting, with chin and ear scratches, Mimi would be a loving, purrfect companion.

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Mr. Bones is an outgoing, playful love-bug who loves his humans! He is a 3 year old black cat who was found under a house in East Texas as a kitten before he came to his current human. Mr Bones is a special guy, who fooled 2 vets into thinking he was neutered as a kitten because he is a cryptorchid! He is now neutered, but his time as an intact male has given him some territorial anxiety. He takes Prozac once a day for his anxiety, but otherwise is a healthy, microchipped, active little guy.

Mr. Bones loves to play with toys on a string. He will launch himself through the air to catch them, and he has some hilarious moves. He also loves to be cuddled up with you when he is not playing. He loves to be the only center of attention and needs to rule over the house as an only pet. While he has not met children in his life, his current owner believes he would get along very well with children older than 5 or 6. Mr. Bones likes to be picked up, hugged, kissed, and loved on. He will sleep by your side the entire night. He is not afraid of strangers and will even let your guests pick him up for short periods of time.

Mr. Bones would do best in a house where he can get a lot of positive attention from humans. He is litterbox trained. His current home situation includes two other cats that cause his anxiety to flare, which is why he needs to be rehomed. His current owner believes that his territorial anxiety will dissipate when he is the only pet in the house. He will be a very loving and loyal companion to his next humans and is ready to provide hours of entertainment and cuddles!

This loving kitty is fully deserving of a furever home that lets him rule the roost, and they will reap the rewards of his love. Apply to adopt Mr. Bones today!

Story
Krile showed up in her foster's neighborhood as a stray late last year with a single kitten. Clever and friendly, Krile decided this human could be trusted, and together they coaxed her kitten to come inside to safety as well. This gorgeous lady had another surprise in store, however. In January, she gave birth to six more kittens!

Krile has been a wonderfully caring mom, but at just under a year old, she's still nearly a kitten herself! Now that her baby-raising days are over, Krile is ready to strike out and find her own human family. She's sweet, chatty, and will be your best friend if you have snacks! She's very outgoing and loves spending time with people and other cats.

If you're looking for a new feline buddy who's past the 'climb your pant legs' stage but still has lots of playful energy, Krile is your girl!
