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
Coco is a 3 year old spayed, microchipped tuxedo cat who is playful, affectionate, and full of personality. Rescued as a stray in late 2024, she quickly showed she was no feral; litter trained, sweet, and eager for human contact. I adopted her in April 2025, and she has brought so much joy: chasing toys, darting through tunnels, lounging on her cat tower, and even curling up to sleep on my arm. Coco loves to cuddle on her terms and will let you know with love bites when done. She is energetic, social, and thrives on play and attention. Sadly, despite multiple reintroduction attempts with my resident cat (and help from a behaviorist), Coco has faced ongoing aggression from her housemate. Given her experience and for her happiness and safety, she needs to be the only pet in her new home. Coco is healthy, litter trained, and ready to bring love, fun, and companionship to a patient, cat-savvy adopter who can give her the forever home she deserves.
