Hi everyone! My name is Nemo! 🐾 🐱 I am a spayed female, approximately 2 years old. I weigh about 6 lbs and I love to play and snuggle with my person! I am great with adults, kids, and other cats. I haven’t been around dogs to know how I would react. The most important thing to know about me is I LOVE treats and affection! I am very smart and loyal! I love to play, but will also be right by your side to cuddle up on the couch! 🛋️ I can’t wait to get to know you! ❤️

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.

This is toast. He comes from a family whose mother was found outside pregnant and underweight. The mom cat had 6 babies, 3 of which didn't survive. But toast along with 2 other came out and defied all the odds. Toast is a very curious fellow and has gotten along with dogs and cats. He likes to explore his surroundings, look outside, and when comfortable, cuddle. Toast as of December is 5 months olds and looking to find his forever home.

Story
Jiffy is an orange female American short hair. She is spayed and up-to-date on rabies. She is almost 6 years old. Jiffy is very sweet and would lay next to you on the couch all day long if she could! I would say her personality closely relates to Garfield. She loves to eat and be lazy! She is a huge couch potato and enjoys snuggling in her bed or being close to our window where she can watch what is going on outside! She does get along with other cats, however dogs are unknown. I am placing Jiffy up for adoption due to my spouse and I separating. Unfortunately, due to my work requirements, I am unable to give the best life she deserves and it is very important that she goes to a good home where she can get all the love and pets she needs! I am primarily concerned about a good home for Jiffy, not so much the adoption fee which could be negotiated.

Story
Meet Asteroid Asteroid was only 8 weeks old with a severe upper respiratory infection when he was found in someone’s yard. Unfortunately his finder couldn’t care for him, so he was surrendered to rescue. When he got here, he was terrified and very convinced that he was going to be hurt. Even gentle touches made him melt into a frozen puddle of terror. Asteroid has come a long way, but definitely has farther to go. He’s comfortable in the house, fully litterbox trained, loves playing with the other kittens, but he’s still very concerned about people getting close to him. He wants to love, sneaking into bed at night for secret snuggles and accepting gentle pets, but he’s still scared of being cornered. We don’t know what he went through before he was found, but with his level of fear, you always worry about the worst. Asteroid needs a quiet home to learn that people are actually nice and that snuggles are freely offered and don’t have to be secret! The first step is to complete the cat adoption application below. Symbiotic Inc. has a required minimum $150 adoption donation. If you are adopting two cats at once, it is a total of $250. (it is tax deductible!) All cats are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on all needed health care before adoption is finalized. We require a meet and greet with all potential adopters, a home visit and a vet reference (if applicable).

He’s never met a stranger, to the surprise of the guy who came to fix my dryer…This kid sat on his shoulder the whole time! He was found by someone four wheeling in a field, and his impressive lung capacity is what kept him from getting run over. Now he’s ready to start looking for his forever home! Krypton is 5 weeks old, up to date on vaccines, and is looking for a family that will let him sit on their shoulders, scratch his back, and let him make biscuits to his hearts content.
