Story
Chai is an incredibly sweet and loving cat. He’s got a great mix of playful energy and calm cuddles, always ready to hang out and keep you company. He’s friendly with everyone and has a way of making you feel at ease with just a little purr or a nudge. It’s hard to let him go, but unfortunately, due to circumstances, I can’t keep him anymore. I know he’ll bring just as much joy to someone else’s home as he has to mine!

Story
Where are our big kitty lovers? Meet affectionate 9 year old Max (15 lb) with his cute brown tabby coat and white toes. His person sadly passed away, and then just recently, his brother Jake passed away, quite suddenly. Poor Max! He’s a confident people lover that will approach you for pets and attention. Young enough that he still enjoys a variety of toys and adores being with his people receiving attention. His foster is teaching him to walk on a harness and he is taking to it with ease. He might do well with another easy going cat in the home.

Story
KC is a beautiful 7 year old long hair calico, who came to us from a local shelter recently. She was in a community cat room with other cats, including her cat friend "Vie". With a proper introduction she might do well having a cat friend in her new home. She gets along just fine with the dog in her foster home. Understandably a little shy at first, KC warms right up with gentle pets and a calm touch. She enjoys being with people and is sweet, talkative and affectionate

Story
Meow, My name is Mel!I came into the SPCA when my owners could no longer care for me. It's not my fault my owners could no longer keep me. I'm a good cat. I am looking for a quiet home where I can relax in a sunbeam and be your faithful companion. I am very affectionate and would love to cuddle in your lap and purr. I would prefer to live in a home with adults only. My independence means you won't have to worry about me needing constant attention. I'm the perfect companion for someone who loves the outdoors as much as I do. Adopting me means gaining a friend who will cherish the simple joys of life with you. After all, what's better than watching a sunset with a purring friend by your side? I am eligible for Foster to Adopt! Please speak to a SPCA staff member for more information. Primary Color: Brown Tabby Weight: 14.46 Age: 4yrs 1mths 2wks

Story
Meet magical Merlin! Merlin is a very friendly, curious and handsome 10 year old gentleman of a cat who loves people, being pet by people, being brushed, keeping you company, having conversations and warming your lap. He will also keep you company on your bed at night. He’s does have a little bit of a catnip ‘problem’. Shhhh, don’t tell him, he doesn’t think so- Merlin was surrendered to a local shelter when his guardian had to move into a living situation that was unable to include him. Merlin is an easy going, mid-western boy at heart, having originally moved to California from Nebraska at a young age. He’s hoping his next move won’t be quite as far. He has lived with other cats in the past but may be picky about his cat friends. He has so much presence and purrsonality he’s really the only cat you need. Did we mention he’s a ‘people’ cat? He’d probably be just fine with respectful kids. Merlin does require a urinary diet to help keep him healthy and happy. Can you make the magic happen for Merlin and give him his forever home? He’s ready to meet you!

Story
What could be better than one beautiful house panther? Why two of course! Meet 8 year old brothers Coco and Bijou. These happy and healthy boys lost the only home they’d ever known when their guardian passed away. Now in a loving foster home they are cuddling, playing and chasing each other around. These handsome boys have always been indoor cats and we don’t know how they would be with other pets, as they’ve always just had each other. Bijou is the more svelte and playful one, the first to greet visitors or check out a new toy. He doesn’t mind being picked up. Coco is more reserved and cautious but follows Bijou’s lead. He prefers to keep all four on the floor. He’s the bigger cat by a few pounds but looks to his more slender brother for comfort. They are both active and inquisitive, always looking for new adventures. Maybe their next big adventure would be to go home with you?
