Story
2/26/2026: 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
Meet Lyla! Lyla is a beautiful female orange cat with gorgeous markings and a fun, quirky personality. Female orange cats are fairly rare, which makes her extra special. She’s sweet, affectionate, and loves to cuddle, but she also has plenty of energy and enjoys being involved in whatever is going on around her. Lyla gets along well with cats and dogs. She may be a little shy at first, but she adapts well and becomes comfortable once she settles in. Lyla takes Atopica daily to help manage her immune system and keep her healthy, so her future family will want to continue that medication. We’re making the difficult decision to rehome her after welcoming a newborn. Between our baby and other pets, we’re no longer able to give Lyla the attention she deserves. She’s a wonderful cat who would thrive in a home that can give her plenty of love, interaction, and cuddles.

Story
My father recently passed away and has had Buddy for 7 years. He is the sweetest loverboy of a cat you could ever meet and adapts quickly and well to new environments, provided you’re patient and affectionate with him. He loves sleeping in the bed with you, and will be lonely if you close your bedroom door. If you already have pets, it will help if they are friendly and welcoming to other animals. Buddy desperately wants to make friends and be part of the family. ❤️
