Story
Our family adopted Lily from a Petco two years ago. She has been great with our little girls, she is loving, chill, and very dog like. She will wait at the door for when we get home, sleep at our feet, loves cuddles and laying tummy side up. She is litter box trained, never had any accidents. Loves to go outside sometimes, comes back a couple hours later. She has a litter box, automated pet feeder, and water fountain. We are so sad to see her go, but my mother who is ill and has special health needs is coming to stay with us and unfortunately cat hair is a no-no. She will be a great addition to your family!

Story
Gus is a wonderful cat. He is very talkative and likes to explore his surroundings. He is playful and has lots of toys. He loves to cuddle on your lap or sleep in his window hammock and spend time in his catio. I adopted Gus from South Salt Lake Animal shelter. They told me he was feral. He has adjusted to domestic life greatly and has no problems with my dog. Gus only real concern is that he does not like my other male cat. I’ve had Gus for over 8 months and have tried everything and even talked with a specialist to help. It breaks my heart to have to let him go but Gus deserves better than living in my basement. It is important that Gus be the only cat as I can’t say for certain he will ever accept another cat? Gus is a wonderful companion and will become your best friend.

Story
***Please don't message me with advice/suggestions. I am in a very difficult position and I am looking for either a temporary owner or a long term re-home for my sweet Cow. 🩷 She's a sweetheart and it is really heartbreaking for me. I think there may be a better fit for her out there, and I want to take the time to find them. 5️⃣ She is 5 years old and up to date on shots and vaccinations. I can potentially sponsor supplies. 🐈 She will do best without other animals, unless you are very comfortable doing scent/space swapping with 2+ cats. She has never lived with children, but I think she can adjust to older kiddos. She loves anyone who brushes her and lovvves laser pointers and twisty ties. She would love a home with her own space. She can be a lap cat with a brush and a little bit of time. She loves people, but she likes to have her own space sometimes.

Story
Looking for a new home for this handsome boy. His name is Ragnar and he loves to cuddle and get chin rubs (beware the belly lol). He grew up in a household with both other dogs and cats so he works well with others, though there may be an adjustment period because he is usually shy and cautious when meeting new friends. He is 7 years old (Born March 24, 2018) and in good health. He has been an indoor cat his whole life and doesn't show much interest in going outside. I have a litter box and a brand new Kitty Spout fountain with months worth of filters that would be free to come with him to whoever decides to adopt. He is neutered, microchipped, and currently up to date on his vaccines. I am recently divorced, and unfortunately my current work hours and financial situation do not provide enough to support pets, so I am hoping to find a good household for him where he can get the love and attention he deserves.

Story
Cling came to me as a foster from a former friend who needed what I was told was just a few weeks while they figured out some options, two weeks turned into months, and she ended up being abandoned by her original owner and has been with me for the past 2 years. She is a SWEET cat, but is a one-person attached kind of cat. Her original name was Oreo, but she chose me as her person, hence the name Cling -- she just wants to be with you or by you at all times. I'd keep her if I could -- I have kept past two years because I wanted to find the perfect home, and consider trying to keep her, but I am moving out of state and cannot take her in addition to the pets we already have. I love her and this breaks my heart to have to regime her. If you are looking for a shadow-cat to keep you company she is it! Happy to share more photos or give additional information if needed. She is about 2.5 years old.

Story
I am planning a long-distance move out of state and, unfortunately, cannot take my cat with me. He is a 3-year-old neutered male who has been rabies vaccinated and is in excellent health. His personality is extremely gentle and affectionate—he loves curling up on your lap and following you around the house. He does shed a bit, but that’s his only quirk! I’m hoping to find a local Salt Lake City resident with prior cat experience who can give him a forever home. He’s completely litter-trained, gets along well with people (and other cats), and will thrive in a patient, caring household. If you or someone you know has room in your heart and home for a sweet, well-behaved cat, please send me a private message. Thank you so much for considering giving him the loving home he deserves!
