Story
Artie is a 5 year old shorthair. Very loving to her person. She enjoys a quiet home, indoors only. She uses a litter box fine and has no destructive behaviors as long as a scratching post is established. She would do well in a house with no small kids as she is quick to let you know when she doesn't like something with a bop or hissing.

Story
Bella is looking for a new, loving and responsible home. Unfortunately, his previous owner has Alzheimer’s and can no longer care for him. He is very shy. However, once he gets to know you, he is very friendly and sweet. Details about Bella: -Yes, Bella is a boy! -For the past 7-8 years, Bella has been a single, indoor cat. Previously, we believe Bella was an indoor / outdoor cat. -He does not like to be picked up. Because he is shy, he gets startled easily. -Best for an adult home, with no other pets. Probably not a good fit for young children. -Health: Spayed, vaccinated, and in excellent health.

Story
Gai, our beloved black cat, is seeking a new, quieter home. He’s always been a skittish fellow, but his shyness has deepened into being antisocial over the years, especially with the arrival of our three children. Our household is poised to become more chaotic as our rambunctious sons grow, and we know that Gai will become more miserable as a result. We believe he would thrive in a calm and peaceful environment where he can relax and explore at his own pace. Gai is a gentle soul who simply needs a calm environment and patient human friends to blossom. Gai is 10yo, neutered, and up-to-date on his shots/teeth cleaning as of 8/2025. He’s also social with our other cat. Energetic dogs wouldn’t be a good fit.

Story
Meet Smokey — Your Brave, Quiet Tabby with Zoomies, Climbing Skills, and a Love for Hunting! Smokey is a playful and adventurous grey tabby with beautiful white markings, born on July 11, 2024, as part of the adorable “S’mores” litter. His mom, S’mores (already adopted!) and we just couldn’t resist rescuing our namesake! Smokey is just as charming as his name suggests — full of curiosity, affection, and a little bit of mischief. This indoor-only kitten loves to explore, climb, and practice his hunting skills. He’s an expert at scaling furniture and loves to have zoomies around the house, burning off his boundless kitten energy. And when he’s feeling particularly playful, he’s ready to pounce on anything that moves! Smokey also has a natural instinct for hunting mice, so if you’re looking for a kitten with a little extra skill, he’s got it covered. While Smokey is usually a quiet kitty, he’s not shy when it comes to making sure his needs are met. He’ll gently paw at his food bowl or let out a meow when it’s time for a snack or when he’s thirsty. His sweet and calm demeanor means he’s not a loud, demanding kitty, but he certainly knows how to communicate what he wants! Smokey is friendly, social, and gets along well with other cats and dogs, making him a great addition to a multi-pet home. He’s curious, brave, and affectionate, and loves both exploring and cuddling. He’s ready to find a forever home where he can share his adventurous spirit, playful nature, and affectionate heart.
