Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Beard: I will need a VERY patient, cat-savvy adopter who can read my body language and give me time to blossom into my true personality. Expectations should be set that it is unknown how long it will take for me to adapt (possibly weeks to months) and I might never become super social, but more of a roommate. I will be ideal for a gentle, quiet adopter looking to help out a cat, but one who has low expectations for who I am, and what I might become. It is not known what I will be like in a home environment. I came from an overcrowded home with lots of other cats. I have been using my litter box consistently here at the shelter, but my adopter needs to provide me with a slow litter box introduction since it is unclear what my litter box habits were in my previous home. It is recommended that I be set up in my own space (an extra bedroom or bathroom) a space that people or pets will not use unless going in to clean or feed. This will allow for protected contact along with providing a safe space for me. I should be left alone initially as I adjust. This space should include plenty of hiding places, ideally with access to a vertical surface such as a cat tree or a cat-proofed shelf. I can gradually be given more access to the home when I am confidently moving about my environment with relaxed body language when my adopter visits me in my room. In my previous home there were multiple cats, but we do not know how we interacted with one another. I should not be introduced to existing pets in my new home until I have had a chance to adjust to my new environment on my own. Compatibility:Cats: YES!!! It would be best to go to a home with a confident feline friend that I can bond with and who can show me the ropes. I am most likely going to be a `cat`s cat` versus a `people`s cat`.Dogs: No history possibly if mellow and cat-savvyKids: Older, quiet, cat-savvy The shelter is open Tuesday through Sunday from noon 4:30pm, with no appointment needed to meet available cats.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Graygi: I am a friendly, playful young guy. I am also a FLUTD cat. Feline lower urinary tract disease (FLUTD) describes a collection of conditions that can affect the bladder and urethra of cats. Cats with FLUTD usually have episodes of straining and discomfort when urinating, increased frequency of urination, and blood in the urine. Sometimes these symptoms can be caused by a urinary tract infection or bladder stones, but most commonly a cause is not identified. Stress can be a factor in these episodes and cats with this condition should be monitored closely in the period of adjustment after adoption. Urethral obstruction (when a cat is unable to urinate) is a potentially life-threatening condition and can be the most serious complication of FLUTD. The shelter cannot provide management of this condition after adoption, and it is recommended that the adopter promptly establish care with a primary veterinarian for ongoing management of this condition. We recommend having multiple litter boxes in the home, using unscented clumping litter, scooping the boxes at least daily, and feeding a canned food diet.I had a borderline increase of protein loss in my urine (UPC). This can be due to being intact or have other reasons. It is recommended to recheck a urine protein creatinine ration in 4-6 months at your regular veterinarian. Be sure to stop by to meet me and speak with the Matchmakers in Cat Adoption about me ... they know me and can tell you everything you should know about me! Compatibility:Dogs: No history - possibly with a slow introductionCats: Possibly, with additional litter boxesKids: No history - possibly

RAYLAN

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Raylan: I am a calm, mellow cat who usually keeps to myself, and I am a social guy, but on my own terms. I like to be near people but I do not always enjoy petting. I have good history living with a cat, and I have good litter box manners! I can be nervous of strangers and I hide until comfortable. My adopters should be willing to start me in a small quiet space and gradually open up my world as I settle in at my own pace. I would prefer a quiet, adult-only home. I will need a a very slow introduction to my new home. Expectations should be kept very low at first and that I am going to need time (weeks to a month or more) to show more of my true personality. Based on history in my last home, it is expected that I may always be a bit skittish with new people, so a low-traffic, quiet home will be best for me. I will do best with the people within my bubble (after time), but I probably wont be the type of cat to go up and greet visitors. I have the potential to be a sweet, gentle companion with a very cat-savvy adopter who is willing to put in the extra effort to help me come out of my shell. I would be ideal for a gentle, quiet adopter looking to help out a cat, but one who has low expectations for who I am and what I might become. A `let me be who I am` type of person. It cannot be stressed enough that I need to be allowed to adapt at my own pace, and that I am who I am and I need a patient, understanding person that wont push or expect me to be anything other than who I am. Staff is available to answer questions on how to help me adjust at home! Compatibility:Dogs: No history - possibly with a slow introduction Cats: Yes please! Would enjoy having a calm, quiet cat friend to help him settle in.Kids: No thanks The shelter is open Tuesday through Sunday from noon - 4:30 pm, with no appointment needed to meet available cats.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Fruit Loop: I am a beautiful fluffy tortie! I can be sweet on my own terms when I am given time to warm up. When I am not seeking attention, I am a very independent, low-maintenance gal with good litter box manners! I previously lived with a baby and a 12-year old, and I was pretty uncomfortable around them. I communicated my discomfort by scratching, so I am looking for a home without kids to keep my stress levels as low as possible! I have a history of ingesting edible items. My previous owners stated that I had two obstructions when I was between the ages of 1 - 3 which required surgery to remove the items. I haven`t had any incidents of this since those times years ago, but my adopters should be mindful to keep anything that could cause an obstruction out of my reach. I seem to have a sensitive stomach and have been vomiting several times a week. My adopters should follow up with their primary veterinarian as currently all medical is coming back as normal. I am easily stressed/overwhelmed during transitions, and I am looking for an adopter who is willing to give me as much time as I need to settle in. This could be a couple of days or a couple of weeks. My success will be dependent upon how well my adopters are able to read and understand my body language. It is recommended that I be set up in my own space, an extra bedroom or bathroom, a space that no one will access unless feeding or cleaning. I should be left alone initially as I adjust. This space should include plenty of hiding places, ideally with access to vertical surfaces such as a cat tree or cat-proofed shelf, and easy access to a bed, litter box, food, and water. Gradually give me more access to the home only when I am confidently moving about my environment and I remain confident with relaxed body language when my adopter spends time with me. My previous adopters let the shelter know that I will growl, hiss, and scratch if pursued when I am hiding!! I am looking for a VERY quiet, low-traffic home with a cat-savvy adopter with lots of patience! I was affectionate on my terms with my previous adult owners, but I have always been quite nervous with other people,, which I would show by hiding and hissing. I am not going to be a very social cat, and it will take me a long time to build a relationship with my new family, but if I am given the time and option to do so at my pace, I will make someone a great low-maintenance co

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Tom: I am a super handsome guy and I love to cuddle once I am comfortable in my surroundings! I would enjoy being an indoor/outdoor cat. My previous home reported that I would try to get out whenever I could, and I seemed to enjoy being outside, so we are looking for adopters for me who can provide a safe indoor/outdoor option. I have had litter box issues, especially when another male cat was brought into the home. Staff and matchmakers have handouts and can provide advice on how to introduce me to my new home to ensure a successful transition. Compatibility:Cats: Possibly with an extremely slow introduction. I had a difficult introduction with a cat in my previous home.Dogs: No history - possibly, if a mellow, cat-savvy dog. The fewer variables, the better for Tom!Kids: Yes, older kids who can read cat body language and interact appropriately. Again, the fewer variables, the better for Tom! The shelter is open Tuesday through Sunday from noon - 4:30 pm, with no appointment needed to meet available cats.
