Story
I’m rehoming a very special cat who is ready to bring warmth and love into your life. He’s a 13-year-old orange sweetheart, up-to-date on vaccines, and incredibly cuddly. Once you lay down, he loves curling up right on top of you, soaking in all the pets and affection. He’s calm, gentle, and very laid-back, perfect for a quiet household. He’s been through a little trauma and can be shy at first, but once he feels safe, he’ll be your most loyal companion. He’ll thrive in a calm environment with someone who appreciates his mellow nature. If you’re looking for a sweet, loving, and calm feline friend, this gentle boy could be the perfect addition to your home. Please reach out if you’re interested in meeting him or learning more. He has lived with 2 other cats before. I can provide his stainless steel litter box, toys, and 6mo flea medication.

Story
Tomas is 6 years old and I got him when he was just one. He is a sweet boy that I have had for 5 years but I am allergic to my cat and as much as I have tried to fight it I just can no longer manage my allergies. He can be a bit shy and anxious when introduced to a new environment but once you get to know him he is the sweetest boy around. He will come cuddle at your feet and sometimes even lay on your lap. Back when I was in school he would always come keep me company by laying on my books or computer. This is not an easy choice but with my allergies getting worse I feel like he deserves a better family that can give him all the love and attention I can’t

Story
Pet's name: Snowball Age: 2 yrs Breed: Orange Fire Tip Siamese Backstory: We received him from a neighbor who was moving, and were told a relative would be coming to pick him up, but unfortunately, that day never came. We have three other cats in the same situation, and because I have cats of my own, I am unable to keep them all. Meet Snowball, a very intelligent, 2-year-old Orange Fire Tip Siamese with a heart full of love! He's super social, gets along great with dogs and good with most other cats, and adores back rubs while lying down next to his favorite person. Neutered, vaccinated, and litter-trained, Snowball is ready to bring joy and laughter to a loving forever home. If you're looking for a fun-loving companion to brighten your days, message me to meet this sweet guy!

Story
8/13/2025: Please she needs a home!! We rescued her mother while she was pregnant. We have been fostering Gwapa since birth for about a year or a little more, but she needs a forever home as we have too many other cats to keep her. She is a sweet kitty and is not too mischievous. She has always been kept inside, so I do not recommend letting her go outside independently. She mainly eats dry food but is given the occasional snack or wet food. I do not want to take her to the humane society, so I am hopeful someone will want to adopt her. For the right home, adoption fee will be waived.

Story
Beautiful, sweet four year-old female in need of rehoming. She is amazing with people, just does not get along with other animals. Great with kids! My brother got her in California before being reassigned from the Navy, he brought her to live with us and we have had her for a couple of months and she has just not warmed up to the other cats at all. She gets mad and isolates herself and it is very sad. We just want her to be happy and get all of the attention she needs!

Story
(Central Texas Adoption Only) Meet Batgirl, a gentle and resilient kitty with a heart as soft as her fur! This sweet girl was rescued from the streets, where she struggled to survive as a starving stray. Despite her tough beginnings, Batgirl has blossomed into a loving and affectionate companion who's ready to find her forever home. Her fur is an elegant mix of white, with delicate patches of gray and black tabby markings-reminiscent of a sesame dumpling, which inspired her adorable nickname. Her coat is exceptionally soft, making cuddle sessions all the more special. Batgirl may need a little time to adjust to her new surroundings, but once she settles in, she will be deeply dedicated to her person. She has a gentle spirit and just needs a little patience as she transitions into her new home. When she's comfortable, she'll be your loyal companion, following you around with love in her eyes. If you're looking for a kitty who's as sweet as she is beautiful and who's ready for a second chance at life, Batgirl is your perfect match.
