Story
Cat showed up at my parents door 8 years ago and vet thought it was a year old then so now it’s about 9 years old. Mom died 3 years ago and dad this April. I have tried to take in the cat but it just does not work. I have pet birds that have been in the he family over 20 years and the cat went after one. Additionally, I wake up every morning with a stuffed up nose and itchy eyes since getting the cat in April. I can no longer live like this. The cat is very sweet once it gets to know you. Kitty tower, litter box, cat supplies and whatever food I have left you can take when you adopt at no fee.

Story
Freckles was part of a huge animal neglect case in a local county and our rescue took in 17 animals. He is a great cat and very loving but can be a bully to other cats. He enjoys being outside but we find he has snuck in all the time so we think he would love to transition to an inside baby.

Story
Darcy showed up at someone's house and they thought she was a kitten. Turns out she was an adult and possibly had already had a litter of kittens herself. Darcy is the most mild mannered and sweet cat I have ever brought into my rescue. Right away she was fine with all the other cats and is very affectionate and loving. She keeps to herself but when approached is always ready to kiss your hand
