Story
Thea is a shy, mostly "blue" cat. She is about 7 years old and was found in between some walls of a office building when she was a few weeks old as a kitten. She has been living inside since then and never been back out. She is a timid, and shy cat and would likely benefit from a more quiet household. She currently lives with several other cats and has no issues getting along with any of them. She has never really been around dogs so I am unsure how she would be with them. I think if the dog is calm and not a high drive energetic energy type they will be fine. She may start off shy and hide for a bit before she gets used to her new surroundings but when she gets comfortable she will cuddle with you on the bed, on the couch and will want attention. She loves to give you chin rubs and will talk to you in her high squeaky voice. She might do pretty well with rehoming as she might end up exploring on her own.

Story
Moosey is mostly white, with a black mask and a black spot on her body. She is about 9 years old and was brought inside when she was a few weeks old as a kitten. She has been living inside since then and never been back out. She is a very loving cat who LOVES attention. She will grab your hand so that you give her pets, and sometimes will give love bites. She currently lives with several other cats and has no issues getting a long with any of them. She has been around dogs a little so I think she would be okay with them. I think that if the dog gets in her personal space looking to "play" she might "defend" herself. She will most likely be very open to a new space and I think she would adjust very quickly. She will cuddle with you on a bed, on the couch and will always want attention.

Story
Stash is a typical tuxedo cat with a small black mustache. He has a very large body in height and length as you will see in the last picture. He is about 9 years old and was brought inside when he was a few weeks old as a kitten. He has been living inside since then and never been back out. He is a very loving and laid-back cat who will cuddle with you whenever you want. He currently lives with several other cats and has no issues getting along with any of them. He has been around dogs before and with his laid-back personality I think he would be just fine with other dogs. All the other cats in the house see him as a big brother, follow him around, and will sleep with him all the time. He will most likely be very open to a new space and I think he will adjust very quickly. He will cuddle with you on a bed, on the couch and will always love attention from you or guests.

Story
Bear is a typical tuxedo cat with a small black dot on her nose. She is a large cat but that doesn’t stop her from playing, chasing a laser or jumping for cuddles. She could use more exercise to possibly slim back down to a healthier weight as she does have some difficulty reaching her back near her tail. She is about 9 years old and was brought inside when he was a few weeks old as a kitten. She has been living inside since then and has taken a few trips to the yard as she loves being outside, or near the back door with the screen closed. She is a very loving and laid-back cat who will cuddle with you whenever you want. She currently lives with several other cats and has no issues getting along with any of them. She has been around dogs before and with her personality I think she would be just fine with other dogs. She loves to talk and loves to come say hello to guests. She is a very curious cat and should adjust great to her new home!

Story
Mister is a very cuddly cat and is nice to everyone he meets. He can be a little shy at first but if you give him some time he will open up. I’ve had him for quite some time now and I genuinely can’t think of a time that he’s bitten me or scratched me that’s how nice he is. He is clingy so I’m looking for someone that can give him attention and make him feel loved.
