Story
Sumo is a shy sweetheart who loves to cuddle and follow you around the house! He is 12 years old, so he spends most of his time looking for a good place to nap but also loves to play. He may be shy at first but once he warms up to you he never leaves you alone at night! Sumo hates loud noises and is shy towards visitors so he prefers a quiet and steady home.

Story
Paddock and her brother Greymalkin were found outside a convenience store along I-35 when they were only 8 or 9 weeks old. Cautious and shy at first, they have blossomed into friendly, playful, affectionate kittens. They have had initial shots. Paddock will be adopted on a contract requiring the adopter to get her spayed. If I spay her prior to adoption, the adoption fee will be equal to my costs to get her spayed.

Story
Spooky is a very cuddly cat. We live in Austin,TX. He enjoys the outdoors. He always comes back and doesn’t go very far. He likes to snooze on our outdoor couch. He is 12 years old and in perfect health. He likes to sleep right next to you or at feet. He only eats kibble I’ve tried scraps for years but he doesn’t like it. We are rapidly growing our family and he is becoming a bit territorial and as a new mom I just cannot handle the added work/stress. He avoids my toddler but will let them pet him if they are gentle. He also is really good with our German shepherd, he pretty much just ignores him and does not interact when our dog approaches him (wants to play wants to sniff just check out the cat.) They coexist. He used to live with cats in his earlier years but it’s been over a decade so I’m not sure how he would be with other cats. I think he would thrive best as the only pet with no children.

Story
Hello all this is Jack a sweet boy that I found as a kitten In may 2025 so is is about a year old or a little more. I took him in and had him neutered when he was about six months old. He is a very sweet boy just really needs a patient pet parent willing to take the time to gain his trust. He loves to eat and his favorite treat is catnip flavored greenies. Jack is a big boy for his age , he has baby blue eyes and he is very talkative. Jack has had his one year shots.

𝐒𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐂𝐚𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞🐾❤️ Benji is a love bug! He is about 2 years old and has been living in my home for 4 weeks now. My neighbor was no longer able to keep him. Benji was neutered a month ago and had all of his vaccinations. He tested positive for FIV but is in good health. He loves attention and being loved on. He lets me pick him up, brush him and is treat motivated. He likes my two 1-year old cats and is friendly to my small dog. He is good with kids too. I'm fostering him until we find his forever home. My biggest priority is finding him a safe and loving home.

Hi this is Luie a two year old fixed male cat with a really playful personality! He is a bit shy until he gets to know you but very sweet!! He has been fixed and had 1 year vaccination but has been inside his whole life. I would love for his adopters to maybe have property were he could venture outside at some point. I need to rehome him because I I have 8 cats inside that was supposed to be a temporary situation and I have to find homes for them all. Luie is a great hunter he always brings dead scorpions to my room so I know he has been earning his keep!! Luie has some trust issues but a toy with feathers will get him going every time!! If you want a playful beautiful black cat Luie is for you!!
