Story
Nasa is 7 year old, I adopted him at 24PetWatch in 2018. Nasa is a cat who desperately needs to be loved — you can see it just from his eyes. At the same time, he is also very jealous and possessive. After a few more cats joined our home, he became very insecure and started pooping and peeing everywhere. We tried many things — giving him good food, playing with him, using sprays that are supposed to calm him down — but none of it worked. On top of that, my wife left the United States, and I was struggling with depression myself. I simply wasn’t able to take proper care of him. To stop him from making a mess in the house, I had no choice but to keep him in the backyard. He stayed there alone, but he would always stand by the window or lie on the table by the window, watching everything happening inside the house. He longed to come back in. I saw all of this, and it broke my heart, but I didn’t know what else I could do. He loves being loved.

Story
Merlin is a VERY special boy! He is beloved in our home. He is our youngest of 3 that we adopted a year and 3 months ago. He is so cuddly and likes to be held like a baby. Sometime we think he’s a dog because he’s so social and fun! And has a lot of energy. The reason we’re rehoming him is because he doesn’t get along/hunts our other cats. He loves them sooo much, but cannot stop hunting them. So, he needs to be in a home without cats. He’s never met a dog but I think he would do way better with one. He also has some medical problems (special needs kitty). He has a twitching problem where his feet and body twitch throughout the day. He is on gabapentin to help. Thankfully he takes his medicine very well! The vet doesn’t know why he twitches but thinks it might be a type of seizure. He is an amazing loving boy and deserves a great home with patient parents. If we don’t find a home for him, we may have to euthanize him….since not many people want a special needs cat. please save him!

Story
I got meena on my birthday and I took her with me to college where she got along with my other cat and my roommates cat. She loves to overeat so make sure to measure her kibble. It might take awhile for her to get used to you and cuddle up next to you but she loves getting her head pet. Someone who doesn’t have a cat or has experience with a cat would be perfect for her. She loves playing outside and looking outside of windows and she loves churu treats. She’s pretty defensive when it comes to new things as most cats are but with dedication to get her adjusted she is comfortable.

Story
Pepper is a roughly 2 year old male cat with some special needs. He came to us as a scared little stray from a Target parking lot, and I'm honestly not sure if he was ever an indoor cat before then. It did take some time for him to warm up, but once he did he can be a snuggly little fellow when he wants to be. He likes sitting beside of you on the couch while you watch tv, and at night he likes to snuggle up at the foot of the bed. He's also quite playful and loves toys! Pepper does, however, have some special needs and would really do best in a calmer house where he is the only cat. He's fine with small dogs, but he does NOT do well with other cats. And unfortunately, he and my sweet older kitty just aren't getting along and they are both becoming very stressed. I am absolutely more than happy to get shots updated for you if you want to adopt. Comes with litter pan, some toys, cat collar w/ tracking tag (iphone compatible only).

Story
My name is Nala, I love to sleep eat and play with my sister, Luna (also on this site). I to play with dogs by rubbing against them and running away. I like cuddles under the blanket once I feel safe around you. I don’t like being held too long for grooming or otherwise. I just want a calm safe house where I can play and cuddle with my sister cat.
