Story
Moses is an adult male cat that is sweet and hard to have to re-home him. The problem is I work double shifts and dont give him the attention he needs. Moses loves to be held, he will let you know when he wants to be petted or held by climbing into your lap. He loves his neck and cheeks scratched. He purrs very easy. My boyfriends dog came over once time and Moses was terrified, his fur stood up and he ran away and hid. We didn't have the dog over any more when we realized how scary it was for him. He is not used to being around other cats, although he was with another cat for a month (i took a kitten in for a friend) and it went ok. Moses was not thrilled about the new kitten, however did tolerate it and didn't hiss at the cat. Moses plays with me and my two boys, so definitely good with kids. Moses loves to fetch little yellow balls. When you throw a little styrophone ball he will chase it and grab it in his teeth and bring it back to you. He will wait for you to throw it again.

Story
Lucy is one of the most human friendly cats I have ever met. She loves to be held over your shoulder like a baby and will "hug" with her paws. She can lay on or near you and purr while you pet her for hours!! Unfortunately our existing cat does not get along with Lucy. As a result we've had a gate separating our home for over a year. She does not get the attention she deserves and my husband is going through cancer treatment and needs to be able to walk through the house without a gate blocking him. Lucy has a very sensitive stomach we discovered when we adopted her. After trial and error, we learned She cannot tolerate dry food and instead we feed her half a can of wet twice a day. We've found the best is Wellness digestive health. It is expensive (for those who may be worried about that) and it's around $100 a month for food. We can provide an auto feeder for the overnight feedings, litter boxes, toys, anything else you might need. We love her so much.

Story
I adopted her from the Janesville Humane Society. She is just a little over 1 year old. She is very playful and outgoing and confident. She purrs a lot. Super sweet and loving. Likes to be around people, watch out the windows, and about twice a day does the zoomies to express her energy. She loves to hide in the 3 part nylon tube while I dangle the wand with feathers. The only reason I’m rehoming is she will nip at my legs, I believe as a way to communicate and get attention. She follows me around and likes to be in the same room, when she isn’t napping. I’m hoping someone who isn’t afraid of her nips can help her learn that is not acceptable.

Story
Luna is a sweet, affectionate, playful girl. She loves toys and loves snuggling even more. She is the kind of kitty that likes to cuddle close the moment you sit down. Give her a sunny spot during the day for the happiest girl! Another amazing Luna trait: Her patience is such that she even allows you to clip her claws without a fuss! She also LOVES a scratching post and we would provide two along with her adoption, plus a few months’ food, litter boxes, and food dishes if desired. We adopted Luna and her brother as kittens, and they both unfortunately developed urinating issues when we had our first baby. Her brother’s were much worse, and he was successfully rehomed after we had our second baby. We now have two children and have basically eliminated Luna’s issues. However, we would still love to provide a loving, young-child-free home for our sweet girl. She deserves to be happy and comfortable, though we will be devastated to lose her.

Story
Fiora was adopted from MADACC in February. She is friendly, snuggly, and very high energy. She loves to play and loves people! Be prepared for a bed partner. She has gabapentin to help calm her before clipping nails, but otherwise has a good temperment and no health concerns. Please contact me with any questions.
