Story
I got Luna from someone 10 years ago who had rescued her and her siblings from a drain in Virginia. She has been my rock through many years and it truly breaks my heart to rehome her. She’s been with me through so much and is such a sweetheart that just wants love and snuggles. We’ve moved from VA to OR to IA together. We did get a second cat in Oregon and they are best friends, so she may warm up to another cat but it may take time. She does not do well with dogs, which is the reason we are rehoming her. We’ve tried for 3 years now to have them get along but Luna is clearly unhappy and has been acting out. As long as you give her the love and attention she deserves she will be a great companion. She doesn’t bite or hiss or scratch (she did growl at the dog, but not humans) and has been good with out 4 month old baby. We just want her to go to a good, loving home.

Story
Wendi was found in a Wendy's parking lot and came right up to me. She purred all the way home and is an absolute sweetheart. We could not locate an owner or microchip so she has been staying with us. She is about 9-10 months old and very playful. She will happily perch on your shoulders or jump in your lap once she is acclimated. Wendi is a shy kitty and is nervous around other cats and dogs. She does well alone as long as she gets play and cuddle time. It will take some time for her to adjust to her new home, but she will make a wonderful companion. Edit: Wendi has been more comfortable around the resident cats recently. I think she would do fine in a multicat home given patience. Rehoming reason: Over pet limit, nervous around resident cats.

Story
Lulu is a beautiful domestic short-haired cat with a Tuxedo colored coat. We adopted her when she was 6 months old and have had her for a year. She can best be described as very shy, a lounger, and will thrive best in a home without a dog and without little kids. We tried for a year to get her used to our doggo (who adores her), but she's just not having it, and we will feel better knowing she is more comfortable and free to thrive in a new home without a dog. As for the kids part, she's extremely shy, and runs away to hide from strangers. Little kids might interpret this as the cat not liking them, but older kids will likely understand her personality. Please consider adopting her if you feel your home can provide the best environment for her to thrive.
