Story
I adopted Cher after her previous owner, a good friend of mine, suddenly passed away some years ago. I was 16 at the time and had no clue that I would one day need to rehome her. Her birthday is March 8th, and she was found under a truck when she was a kitten. I love Cher immensely, so it has taken me a long time to accept that I can’t give her the life she deserves anymore. She has been diagnosed with FIC, feline idiopathic cystitis, and tends to pee outside the litterbox when she is stressed. Because of this, I keep her on a pure canned salmon diet, which is pretty inexpensive. She needs lots of love to keep her stress down.

Story
Meet Bubby, a 3-year-old male cat with a distinctive coat of white fur with black splotches that give him a charming, unique look. Weighing in at a solid 15 pounds, Bubby is a loving, affectionate cat whos guaranteed to bring energy, charm, and personality into any home. Whether you're an adult or have children in the family, Bubby is wonderful with everyone and loves being part of the daily hustle and bustle. He was found abandoned near a hotel and now is looking for his fur-ever home.While he may take a little time to warm up to dogs, Bubbys patient nature shines throughespecially with calm and gentle senior dogs like his 12-year-old canine companion. After a week or so, hes comfortable sharing space and adapting to his new home.Bubby is a fan of attention, but he knows when it's time for a break. He enjoys being held and petted but prefers short cuddle sessions before continuing his playful adventures. Hes not picky about where he hangs out, content to relax in any room of the house, as long as he has a comfy spot to curl up. Evenings are his favorite time to play, and hes especially enthusiastic when his toys are involved.

Story
Goldaline or Goldie or Goldie boi or Fat Boi etc. is a very sweet two year old, cow-colored feline. He is not gold, and despite his unfortunate mustache, is a lover of all humans who provide food and pets. He was wandering around our apartment complex for a very long time. We lured him into our apartment to see if he was chipped or belonged to anyone. No chip, and no owner was found. He was clearly well-loved by someone at some point, as he loves to cuddle and just be near people. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, and in perfect health. We absolutely adore him, but ss much as we wish we could be his forever home, my cat Cecilia comes first. As they were just starting to show signs of relaxation around each other, she saw him playfully swipe at me and thought he was on the attack. This caused her to launch herself at him with intent to end his life. Ever since then, she has wanted him off this planet. Please consider adopting this wonderful giant beast.
