Story
We found Penelope as a kitten almost 5 years ago in September. We love her so much but since bringing home our baby she has been acting out. She needs a family that is a one cat or two cat home and has the time and attention span for her. She is the best cuddle bug you could imagine and loves all the pets. We unfortunately just do not have the time to give her all the attention she needs.

Story
We rescued Pickles and his sister (Sprinkles) last May, after they were dumped on a rural county road. Pickles is a big personality and a hit with the neighborhood kids, but has caused some issues with our neighbors that do not care for cats. Unfortunately, we had an incident recently where Pickles nipped a neighbor. Pickles is a year and a half neutered male, good with kids, good with other pets, and very friendly. Our cats stay in the garage and outdoors during the day, but I am unable to make them indoor cats due to allergies in the family. We have tried for several months to resolve the issues that Pickles has caused with our neighbors, but now the best course is to find him a new loving home. Any help would be appreciated!

Story
Hi. With a heavy heart I am looking to rehome Crash. I adopted him at an Austin animal shelter in 2012. He was a good cat for the majority of his life until recently. I divorced my wife a couple of years ago and currently take care of our 3 and 8 year old boys 50% of the time. I’m always really really busy and can’t give him very much attention besides just feeding him and cleaning the litter box. I’m looking for the new home to be loving and nurturing. He loves to play with toys and run around the house. He also loves to have his fur brushed. Adjectives to describe him would be playful, sleepy, and loving (minus small children). He doesn’t seem to care for small children (he just steers clear), but he’s not mean and has never harmed children or adults. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Sherbert is in need of a home without other pets or children. He is a very loving cat with one to two adults but does not thrive in a busy household. He is sweet and affectionate and very good company.

Story
Stormy (neutered male) and Tinsel (spayed female) are litter mates. They were born 7/6/2022 so are not quite 2 years old. We were so excited to have kitties and got them from a family with kittens by an unknown male. Stormy is either super chill or super playful and has been termed a “dog-cat” because he’s talkative, engaging, loves everyone, and sleeps in hilarious positions. Tinsel is more timid but loves to get on the furniture to be near you and will jump into the chair next to you or behind your back to be with you. She’s quieter but still shows affection. They’re playful together, snuggle to sleep together, and groom each other. Stormy is dominant among them. Tinsel’s personality is stronger when he’s elsewhere in the house. They’d love to be outdoor cats and were briefly. We’ve kept them inside to limit critters due to immune conditions but can no longer even take the risk with indoor kitties. They’re so ready to be loved by another person, couple, or family.

Story
Hello! Unfortunately, due to allergies I am looking for a new home for Zelda. She is up to date on all shots, spayed, and has gotten a check up from her vet. The vet estimates she is approximately 10 months old. She is incredibly affectionate, so much so she will ask for pets within minutes of meeting her. She currently lives with a Great Pyrenees and they get along just fine. Adopting her comes with: Whatever food I have left, an automatic feeder, a water fountain, two cat towers (one three story & one two story), litter box, and toys!
