Story
Are you looking for a kitten who will sit in your lap, who has a melodious purr, who will chirp a greeting every time you walk into the room, who will serenade you while you open a can of wet cat food? Then look no further than the Pop Star Litter! Someone from this vocal group might be the purrfect pet for you! Of the pop star litter, Harry Styles has the best purr and loves a snuggle. He's also been known to growl at his toys because he's a very noisy guy. He growls when his littermates try to eat near him too; but, he's not food aggressive, he purrs and eats cheek to cheek with the adult cats he lives with at his foster home. Harry must go home with a young adult cat/kitten who is willing to play and snuggle with him. He adores his older foster brothers and could never be a solo cat. He's not just a lover of his feline family though; he loves his people, too. He'll want to follow his people around, sit on their laps, and sleep on their beds. He's an affectionate little man with a lot of love to give. While his name is Harry Styles because he's from the pop star litter, Harry Houdini also would have been a fitting name. If there's a room you want to keep him in, don't blink, he'll figure out an escape. Trying to keep him out of a certain cabinet? He will make it his mission to break into it. He's a clever little cat and loves to solve puzzles. Harry is good with cats (the bigger, the better), and big kids.

Story
Dobby is a very special cat who means the world to us. We adopted him from Morocco when he was just a tiny kitten, and he came into our lives at 6 weeks old. From the beginning, he’s been full of energy, curiosity, and playfulness, and he’s brought us so much joy. This decision is truly heartbreaking for us, but we’ve realized that our home isn’t the right fit for Dobby. We have two older cats who are struggling to handle his high energy and strong personality, and it’s created a challenging environment for everyone. Dobby deserves a home where he can truly thrive—a place with lots of space and people who can match his playful spirit and give him the attention he needs. Dobby loves people and has so much affection to give. He’s litter trained, neutered, and up to date on vaccinations. We’re looking for a home with someone experienced with cats, who understands his energetic personality and can provide the right environment for him to be happy. We love Dobby more than words can say,
