Story
Looking for a loving forever home for my sweet boyHe's a 3-year-old male cat, born to my brother's cat. He needed a home, so we took him in. He's affectionate and sweet with people, and he gets along well with our two small Chihuahuas. He also got along great with our male cat, who sadly passed away.Unfortunately, he doesn't get along with our senior female cat and has been bullying her. Twice, when we've broken up their scuffles, his aggression has been redirected toward my wife. We don't know what the issue is, but our home just isn't the right fit for him.

Story
Meet Maki, the gentle and quiet counterpart to her brother Yuji. While she may be a little reserved when you first meet her, patience is beautifully rewarded with this sweet girl. Once she feels safe and gets to know you, her incredibly kind and loving nature truly shines. She brings a calm, soothing presence to any room she’s in. As part of a bonded pair, she loves to stay close to Yuji, whether they are sharing a quiet nap or side-by-side at the window watching the world go by. If you have a soft heart and a little patience, Maki will reward you with the purest, most genuine affection.

Story
🐾 Meet Blossom 🐾 Blossom is one of the most affectionate and loving cats you could ever meet. She wants nothing more than to have a special human of her own—someone she can cuddle with, love on, and spend her days beside. She is a truly sweet girl who thrives on affection and companionship. ❤️ Blossom’s story started when she was only a couple of days old. She was rescued along with her mama and littermates and has grown up surrounded by love ever since. Because she was handled and cared for from such a tiny age, she is exceptionally loving and people-oriented. Blossom is selective about her kitty friends. She gets along with some cats, but she does not necessarily enjoy the company of every cat. She would do best in a calm home where her boundaries are respected and where she can receive plenty of individual attention. Blossom was previously attacked by a dog, so we strongly prefer a no-dog home for her.

Story
Meet Noodle! 🧡🤍Noodle is a 4-year-old sweetheart looking for a quieter home where he can thrive. He’s named Noodle because he’s the color of macaroni and cheese! When we adopted him from the Humane Society, we were told he was a girl. It wasn’t until a surprising vet visit that we learned “she” was actually a he—the kids were definitely shocked! 😂Noodle is incredibly sweet with people, loves kids, and is very playful. He’ll happily be your best friend. While he gets along with a couple of our cats, he hasn’t adjusted well to our busy multi-cat household. We rescue cats, and we’ve realized some are simply happier with fewer feline roommates. This is a heartbreaking decision, but we want what’s best for him. We think he’d do best as an only cat or with one compatible cat introduced slowly. He deserves a home where he can truly shine.Noodle I an indoor only kitty.

Story
Meet Yuji, an incredibly affectionate two-year-old cuddle bug looking for his forever home. This gentle boy thrives on connection and loves nothing more than curling up with his human for a cozy afternoon nap. Yuji is part of a bonded pair with his sister, Maki. When he isn't snuggled in your lap, you'll find him happily snoozing beside her or sitting together at the window to quietly people-watch. If you're looking for a loyal, loving shadow (who comes with a beautiful sibling bond!), Yuji is ready to steal your heart.

Story
Freya is a sweet girl when she is the only animal in the home. She's good with older kids and loves to settle in your lap or curl up to you in bed or on the couch. Her favorite treats are the chicken temptations (yellow bag) and enjoys sitting in the windows chirping at the birds. If you are lucky, she will lay on your back if you are laying on your tummy. She loves being pet with a regular hairbrush and will even tolerate getting her nails clipped. Like many other cats, she is not fond of baths and definitely does not like the vacuum. She is a string cat and enjoys playing in the garland during Christmas time.We found her as a young kitten outside of a gas station and brought her in on one stormy night. She is around 4 years old and believe she was born late September/early October in 2022.
