Story
If you’ve ever felt a shiver this girl will be standing in your shadow. Hi my name is shiver! I’m a vocal young kitten looking for a home that will be indoor only I’m independent mostly but am always down for some love. My foster mom says I have a touch of winter to me as I have little white hairs through out my black! I am current on my vaccination as I’ve been feline leukemia tested and have had a feline distemper. I am around 11 weeks old and will be due a rabies vaccine soon if still in my fosters mom care I will be provided one. If you have any interest in me please contact me or you can reach my foster mom through her facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/share/17yGLFLHtj/?mibextid=wwXIfr

This is matcha she is one of my females from a litter of 6, just like her siblings she is very outgoing and cuddly. She is looking for a good home that will keep her indoors and provide her annual vet care. She loves being picked up and curled in a blanket. She loves to voice her opinion and run around until she gets tired. If any further interest please message me or contact me through Facebook https://www.facebook.com/share/17yGLFLHtj/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Story
I took him in when a close friend could no longer keep him, and he has been in my care since then. He is 3 years old. I am looking for a safe, loving, and stable home where he will be cared for long-term and treated as a valued member of the family. A calm environment with someone who will give him attention, patience, and proper care would be ideal.

Story
Hi! Meet Mae - she is an affectionate, gentle, low maintenance 1.5 year old cat. She is tiny, only about 5 pounds but does love to eat. My husband and I adopted her from the humane society along with two others back in 2024! She absolutely loves attention and loves to cuddle. She has been around our two dogs (chocolate lab & Weimaraner) and our other cats since we got her! Mae loves being outside but also likes to be able to come inside as well. She knows her name and comes when she is called! We live in the country so I do believe a home outside of the city would be best for her and she is microchipped, she has never wondered off though! We did keep her strictly inside for the first few months to be safe and make sure she knew where home was. She loves kids although it may take her a few minutes to warm up to them she is extremely loving to them. Our nieces and nephew adore her. We recently found out we are pregnant with our first child and have decided to rehome our fur babies!
