Story
These cats originally came to us in March 2024 from a man who was traveling around with his children quite a bit and didn t want to put Ima & Oz through the stress of flying or having to move around anymore. We were so happy to have found a home in April 2024 for these two beautiful cats. Then the lady that adopted suddenly lost her daughter. Her daughter had two cats and the adopter promised her daughter that she would take her cats should something ever happen to her. When she moved the two new cats in her home, it created quite a bit of stress for Ima and Oz. Unfortunately, Ima and Oz were returned to us. We feel so very upset about this for these cats. We are hoping that these two beautiful cats will finally find their forever homes in a quiet, loving environment. Please call the rescue at 9105269619 for questions or to meet!

Story
Jeremy is a very handsome long haired black kitty. He is a bit on the shy side but loves to be around your feet when in the kitchen or living room. He is still learning to enjoy being picked up. He does really well with small children and cat-friendly dogs. Jeremy enjoys playing with other cats and toys! He will need a patient person who can give him time to warm up, but once he does, he's a great guy! Apply online at triadcat.org. ##2267229##
