Story
My adoption fee is waived September 29 through October 1. Thanks to our friends at Mars Petcare and their 15th Annual Adoption Weekend, more pets like me are finding new homes!Hi, I am Stevie. I am the sweetest thing you will ever meet. I really like to get the bestest pets. But I also like to explore my surroundings. I am still learning about this whole "pet" thing. So, I have some learning to do about being pick up. But I can't wait to find my new family.Here's what I need in my new home: I'm sensitive about how and where I'm handled. I need a family who will respect my space. Primary Color: Black Weight: 8.125 Age: 1yrs 6mths 2wks

Story
This is Morphius his dad rented from me and left saying he'd be back in a couple of days. 3 weeks later come to find out he moved out and abandoned Morphius. I love this guy but he doesn't get along with my granddaughters cat. Unfortunately he needs a new home. preferably with no other cats. He seems to get along alright with my yorkie and pom. He is very affectionate with people. Right now he pretty much spends most of his time alone in his dads old room. I really don't want to have to surrender him to a shelter. Please consider helping Morphius. He is almost 2 yrs old small rehoming fee. he is not neutered. and I have no idea if he is up to date on vaccines.

Story
RELOCATED TO WA STATE. Our kitty, Trapper, is a sweet, affectionate, and energetic boy who loves to play. He usually is nervous around new people but is a lovebug once he gets comfortable after a while. Trapper will most definitely do well indoors and outdoors, likely get along with a mild-tempered or playful cat, male or female. He's a young fella with a big heart and appetite so having plenty of space for him to roam around would be a great benefit to him.

Story
Axil is 6-years young and looking for his new forever home. He is extremely friendly and loves all humans. He has been indoors his entire life but would also be well suited in a home that allows him to go outside too. Axil loves treats and belly rubs, but really is just a sweet natured boy who will take all the love you can give him. He even does really well with nail trimming and will purr while in your lap while getting his nails clipped. Sadly I started a new job that requires 90% travel and can no longer accommodate having a pet.

Story
Jojo was born near Olympia Washington and was found abandoned outside an animal shelter before I adopted him in 2012. Jojo was tested positive for FIV but does not need to take medication nor does he need to be monitored, health wise that is, due to being positive for FIV he cannot be around other cats. He does great around kids and a dog, he hates traveling so he'll sometimes spray in his cage. Has a habit of looking through trashcan and feeding his dog brother scraps. If you build enough trust with him he will eventually let you touch his belly and do a little rub. Unfortunately, our child we have recently become guardians over has allergies and we did not know until a year with our child living with us that it was Jojo causing our child's allergies. We would like for him to go to a great loving home!

Story
I adopted her in 2015 when she was about 4 weeks (estimated) old. I realized I have a cat allergy after adopting her so thought about rehoming her but it was hard to actually do. Now I have a 5 month baby and from the time I was pregnant my allergy has been so much worse that I finally (it was hard) decided to rehome her. She is such a lovely creature who has a warm heart. She loves to snuggle on the caregiver’s knees. She is shy with a stranger but after being close to each other, she wants to be touched and loved. She likes a quiet and peaceful environment so I hope she can find the right caregiver who also likes and has that kind of environment. Also, as I’ve observed her, she doesn’t go well with cats that much so I hope she can find a caregiver who wants her as the only cat but you can try having her with other cats if desired with experiences.
