Story
Oreo is a sweet, lovable, kind kitty. He loves to be cuddled and will tell you so. His favorite pastimes are sleeping and watching tv. He loves the chase the mouse videos on YouTube. He needs someone who can give lots of attention to him and monitor his diet to help him lose weight so he can live his best life.

Story
I adopted this little girl at the beginning of the year. She is around 3 or 4. She is unbelievably sweet and cuddly. She is litter trained and not destructive at all. The reason that I am rehoming her is because my schedule has become quite hectic and she seems to need more attention than the average cat. She follows me around meowing constantly. I try to give her love and stimulation but I think she needs more than what I am able to give. I think that she would do very well in a home with children or with someone who was home much of the time. She is a sweet girl and deserves a good home. If you take her home, I will include her cat tree, food, toys, bowls, etc. She has most of her shots but may be due for one soon. I have all her adoption papers and everything.

Story
Aurora was my first furbaby while in my adulthood. She was the first kitty I adopted and I love her so very much. It breaks my heart that I am having to rehome my babies, so I need someone who is going to take very good care of both of them. Aurora and her non-biological sister, Panda, have been two peas in a pod since January of 2016, when they were both less than a year old. They are both about 7.5 years old now, and they both still have some of that spunky kitten energy they did when they were little. Aurora is one of the sweetest cats you will ever meet. She needs a lot of love and attention and is very affectionate. She may take a bit to fully warm up to you, but once she does, she is very loving and a total sweetheart. She desires endless love (though on her terms, her terms are very frequent) and pets. If you want a cat who will sit next to you or lay on top of you in the middle of a nap, Aurora is the baby for you. ***MUST BE ADOPTED WITH HER SISTER PANDA***

Story
Panda is a few weeks older than Aurora but she is just a big baby. I believe she was left outside to fend for herself before turned into the shelter where she was adopted from, because she is terrified of most things. However, under that fear, is the sweetest, most affectionate cat I've ever met. Panda definitely becomes highly attached to one person in the household and does well with a couple and in a quiet household. She's very afraid of loud and sudden noises or movements, so she probably wouldn't do well in chaotic homes. She's very timid at first, but once she learns she can trust you, she is amazingly sweet and just wants to endlessly cuddle. You might have met a cat before, but you've never met a Panda-cat before. They're the sweetest. ***MUST BE ADOPTED WITH HER SISTER AURORA***

Story
Katniss a lump of love and snuggle. We got her and her brother as kittens in 2014 and she’s been with us since. She is declawed in the front. Unfortunately my son has developed a terrible allergy to cats and we have to make the tough choice to find a new home for them. She’s great with kids and has grown up with my 3 boys. She’s very easy and loving. Has no health issues. She likes to eat and can often be found sitting like a human. She has been spayed and microchipped. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Our top priority is that she goes to a home where she will be loved.
