Story
Meet the sweetest little ginger boy, Chester. He a very gentle boy and fairly calm for a kitten his age. We don't know a lot about his previous history. He was dumped at our rescue in frigid temps in the wee hours of the morning. He is non-reactive to any of our resident cats. So, he would be a good fit in a home with at least one other cat/kitten. He is neutered, vaccinated and FeLV negative. Please contact us if you would like to adopt this sweet boy.

Story
Sokka was abandoned by his mother and bottle raised with his littermates. He adores his human, however he has become aggressive with our large dogs and for both his and their safety we are rehoming him. He gets along with our little dog and our other cats. Sokka loves to play with his lure toy and will even play fetch. He wants to cuddle up with his person and loves to be loved on. He like to be rough housed with. Sokka is a funny strange character and we are sad to have to rehome him. His sister (grey long hair female. Littermates) is available on her own or with him. She is a people cat, extremely friendly, and just wants to be with people 24/7. She is fine left on her own but she just loves to be near you.

Story
Need to rehome a sweet 8-year-old male cat. He's super sweet - fully potty trained - can be indoor or out but has to be outside at least part of the time. He knows how to use a cat/dog door to come and go. He can also use a litter box. He gets food and water from automatic food and water dispensers. It takes him a minute to acclimate to most men. He will be a great pet to his next owners.

Story
Roary is a sweet and affectionate orange tabby with a big heart. He’s always had a nurturing nature—especially toward other cats—and truly thrives when he has a companion to snuggle up to or look after. Whether he’s lounging in a sunny spot or following you from room to room just to be near, Roary’s gentle presence brings a calming, comforting energy to any home. One of his cutest quirks? He’ll sometimes meow along whenever you sing—it’s his way of joining in the moment! Roary would do best in a slower-paced environment with someone who enjoys quiet companionship and has a little extra love to give. While it breaks my heart to part with him due to an upcoming move, my greatest hope is to find him a home where he’ll be cherished just as much as he’s been with me. If you’d like to meet Roary or learn more, please don’t hesitate to reach out via text/email—he’s a special boy who just wants to love and be loved in return. Reach out with any questions or desires to get further information😊

Story
It breaks my heart to rehome my beloved cat, Chai. He is a 4-year-old tabby boy with a playful and loving personality. He’s full of energy, always on the hunt for bottle caps to chase, but he also adores cuddling and being close to his humans. Chai does have some special care needs. He recently had PU surgery due to urinary issues, but he has fully recovered and is doing great. He is also on a prescribed UTI-care dry food to help prevent future issues, and we will provide a two-month supply to help with the transition. Additionally, he has a habit of eating hairbands, so they need to be kept out of reach—he once required stomach surgery to remove them. We are looking for a home where Chai will be loved, cared for, and kept safe. If you or someone you know can provide him with a wonderful forever home, please reach out. 💙

Story
Swanson is a very affectionate cat. He loves to sit in your lap during cozy evenings on the couch. He still plays like a kitten. He likes to wrestle with his brother cat. He tolerates dogs. I adopted him since he was a kitten in 2014. He’s been with me through many stages of life. Unfortunately, he is not getting along with my child. We’ve been trying to let him acclimate for a year, but he’s not adjusting. My hope is that someone will adopt him and let him live out the rest of his years cuddled up with them.
