Story
Hello, I'm Rupert (or as my foster mom likes to call me, Precious Rupies)! I'm a very snuggly guy, and am happiest when I'm in the company of my friends. I'll usually follow my humans around, happily rubbing against their legs until they pick me up. I absolutely love to be held, and often wrap my arms around your neck in a hug. I purr and purr and purr when you're near, and even enjoy belly rubs (which, as you may know, is not common for a cat). I'm honestly just so happy to be alive-- when I came to CMHS, I was at death's door. I was so cold and thin, my eyes were crusted shut, my nose was congested, and I had ulcers all over my tongue. But the veterinary team and my foster mom worked so hard to get me on the road to recovery! After lots of meds, tube feeding, and plenty of love, I'm doing much better. I'm currently eating an all wet food pate diet, and am on a special oral medication (Senvelgo) to help balance my blood sugar. Now that I'm feeling better, I'm very playful! I love to chase after interactive wand toys, bat around my mouse that squeaks when I hit it, and wrap around big plush kicker toys. I might even like another cat to wrestle with in my new home. _____________________________________________________________________ This cat came to the shelter is very poor condition with a severe upper respiratory infection (suspected to be calicivirus). He required a feeding tube to eat and extensive medical care and time in foster to improve. He likely has some ocular adhesion in his left eye from his chronic viral infection, so this eye may never appear normal. As of 4/1/24, he has improved significantly and is now eating on his own and gaining weight, although mild ocular and nasal discharge remained. He may require continued medical management with the adopter's veterinarian following adoption if upper respiratory signs remain or recur. Rupert was also diagnosed with diabetes and is currently being managed on Senvelgo. Follow-up care with the adopters veterinarian should be sought soon following adoption.

Story
Hello, I'm River! I am looking for a nice, quiet place in a barn, shop, or garage to call home. I'll happily exchange mousing services for a warm bed, roof over my head, and steady meals. The shelter environment has been a little overwhelming to me, but I have the capacity to be a fairly relaxed (maybe even affectionate) cat in a quieter setting with room to stretch my legs. I did allow some handling, and even gave a few head bumps upon arriving at CMHS, but the barking of the dogs really stressed me out.

Story
Little Debbie came to the shelter with her 5 kittens! She loved them so much but now that they are all adopted, she'd love to find a forever home! Little Debbie is a sweet as can be and loves head butting and rubbing up against your legs. She can be a little shy in a new environment, but with time and patience, she's sure to be a great companion!

Story
Hi, I'm Athena! I'm a gentle older gal with a sweet disposition, looking for a place to call home alongside my brother, Kato. The two of us have been together since the start, and I just can't imagine life without him. We have both been very gentle and affectionate with young children in the past, but we've never been around other cats or dogs. I am fairly laid-back, but am hoping for my new family to help encourage me to exercise through interactive playtime. ____________________________________ Kato and Athena are both very obese and will need a gradual weight loss plan in consultation with adopter's veterinarian. They also have skin conditions that will need further diagnostics and treatment with adopter's veterinarian. If there are underlying food or environmental allergies causing their skin conditions, this may require ongoing management including medications and/or a special diet.

Hi, I'm Kato! I'm a gentle older guy with a sweet disposition, looking for a place to call home alongside my sister, Athena. The two of us have been together since the start, and I just can't imagine life without her. We have both been very gentle and affectionate with young children in the past, but we've never been around other cats or dogs. I have a playful side and enjoy interactive toys such as laser pointers and wand toys, and also enjoy carrying around larger stuffed toys. I'm hoping my new family will encourage me to stay active to help me shed some weight. _____________________________ Kato and Athena are both very obese and will need a gradual weight loss plan in consultation with adopter's veterinarian.
