Not good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

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.

Story

Lenny is shy and sweet. He's never shown aggression towards humans, he does run away from my 1 year old son. He lives with his mother and brother, and fights with his brother on sight. I've tried over the past 4 years to improve their relationship to no avail. Lenny is so sweet with me and his mom, I think he'd do great with a female cat or in a single cat household. I'm sure someone with more time and experience could figure out his territorial behavior but with a baby and two other cats I just don't have the energy to keep going. He is litter trained and only goes outside the litter box when it hasn't been cleaned. He likes to climb, and he loves soft beds.
