Story
Jack is an extrovert. He LOVES playing fetch. He’s about 1.5 years old. He likes to cuddle, he’s not very shy at all, and he plays all the time. He loves being on a patio or anywhere outdoors. He’s very curious and likes watching things outside. He doesn’t like being in the car or in cages very much. He lets you put cute little collars on him. He gets along with other cats but he is very playful so the cat has to be okay with that. He is with the other cat that i have up who is the complete opposite of him but they still get along great. He eats a lot and will eat mostly anything. He’s talkative and energetic but is a little softie baby at heart who loves to be petted. He likes to be the center of attention, I’ve never seen him not come up to someone. He always wants to play so bring out the toys for him. If you want an energetic softie this is your little guy.

Story
Coraline was apart of a stray litter set that was rescued by an older lady when she was very young. As a kitten she was around a lot of people in a very noisy and chaotic household. I took her in from the household and she’s been very loving. She is a bit shy because of her environment as a kitten, but warms up to people after being around them often. She has beautiful big green eyes and a very dark black coat. She loves to play with toys if you engage with her. She likes to lay on you. She’s VERY quiet and keeps to herself. She is VERY calm & likes to sleep. She loves window time and acts calm in cars. She’s pretty easy to bathe and listens very well (for a cat). If you’re wanting a calm quiet cat who becomes very loving when you let her warm up to you, this is your girl. She gets along with other cats if she’s introduced to them slowly. She would do well with kids 5 & up that can understand being calm with her. If she’s uncomfortable she hides/runs. She’s a gentle & sweet girl.

Story
Colt is a beautiful gun metal gray cat (thus the name Colt) (born 06/30/24). Just look at those gorgeous eyes. He is very independent, but he is also very affectionate and very personable. You can often find him on my bed with his brother Charlie. He likes to chase balls and play with string. He just got his booster shot and next dose of dewormer, and so his shots are up-to-date. For any potential home owner that is interested, Colt has some beautiful brothers and sisters that would make great companions.

Story
Willie was thin, starving, and limping when we began fostering him about a year ago. We gave him a space in our enclosed back porch with a cat door. He likes going in and out. He is now healthy, responsive, and sweet. He will even follow you on a walk and come when called! Occasionally, he might scratch, though. It strikes us that he would be a good pet as an only pet, as he seems a little competitive with another male cat we are feeding. He has been neutered and given shots—ready to be adopted! Also, he likes to go in and outside.

UPDATE: Ladybug has had kittens and is now spayed. She's around 4 now. She is sweet, responsive, and will sit on your lap. We are thinking she would make the PERFECT pet for someone who can take her. . . . She does have a little gum trouble--gingivitis, but the vet said not to worry about dental work, etc. I am giving her some herbal powder on her food to help cure it. But she is a real love bug.

Sadie is a sweet pet--friendly and easy to be around. Adaptable. We took her in because she was PREGNANT! She had six babies; they were all adopted. She is spayed and will adapt to other pets and humans. She deserves a good home.
