Story
Kedi is a 8 year old cat that is very sweet and easygoing. She loves curling up in our laps and napping in her favorite spots around the house. In the 4 years we’ve had her she has never torn up furniture or made a mess. She also likes to be outside and even prefers to sleep in the outdoor cat house we put on our porch. That said, her previous owners kept her indoors and I’m sure she would readjust to living indoors if preferred. We are looking for a new home for her because we will be living abroad for many months out of the year. We will provide her new parents her outdoor cat house, cat carrier, litter, a few months worth of flea and tick guard, and accessories.

Story
Link is 5 years old and I have had him since he was a kitten. He is one of the sweetest cats you will ever meet. He is not shy around strangers and will go right up to you and sit on your lap if you let him. If you feel like cuddling, just call him over and he will happily sit on your lap! He is very affectionate as well as very energetic! He loves being pet and chasing toys. He loves doing "cat-acro" where I put him on my feet and he hangs out in the air! I am rehoming him only because I am about to be traveling full-time and unfortunately just won't be able to care for him.

Story
This a very sweet kitten my son brought home after his girlfriends parents told her she could not keep it. We have two dogs and an older cat in our home, the kitten did not get along with the dogs, although I think they would become friends if given time but my older cat was immediately aggressive and I do not think this would improve at all. The Kitten is currently being kept separately in a spare bedroom, we are not able to keep him in our home

Story
My ex adopted Moscato, white, & Merlot, black and gray (pictured in frame 3) when we lived together. She moved out and did not take the cats with her, and is not willing to take them with her. I have been caring for them, but will be moving soon and will not be able to bring the cats with me. Both cats are very sweet, and used to interacting with other animals, such as dogs. Moscato really enjoys tuna tubes, rubs, and will always find a spot on your chest for a nap. She may put up fuss for nail trims but is easily distracted with treats. She can be finicky about litter boxes. If it is not pristine she will find somewhere else for #2. Merlot, has no bathroom quirks, but nail trims are a hassle. Merlot is not as social as Moscato but will still let you rub her and pick her up. She is extremely comfortable with dogs, and has been caught sneaking into the dog crate for a nap. I would ideally like to keep both the cats together because they are comfortable with one another.
