Story
Came to us as a pregnant stray. She had kittens while with us. She does not like our dog but they have been co-existing and I am not sure how she would do with other cats because I have not had the opportunity to introduce her to other cats. Would be best in a house probably without dogs and not young children. Probably an older couple, someone with older kids, or a college aged person would be a great home for her. My children have handled her without issue but she can be twitchy. She is sweet and seeks out affection and she will let you know when she is done. She deserves a chance with a family that can give her love and allow her her independence. She is now an indoor only cat. She will be spayed and up to date in shots within the next few weeks. Please, we have done our part but need to find her her furever home as we cannot keep her. Do not want her to go to a shelter. Thank you!

Story
My Girlfriend found this cat in shopping center parking lot. (she is almost a year old now) The next day we both took her in and we needed to let her stay at one of our places and then we had her for a few months and she was a very playful and sweet animal. She is great with people, has never shown any fear whatosever. Melania is a indoor cat, loves being inside and loves cuddling with others and really loves attention. She is litter trained, eats really well. Melania is not picky with her food at all which was a major plus for us, but we did notice that she loves wet food the most, typically salmon flavored foods. Sadly has the months went by My father could not handle the cat anymore because of his allergies and my Girlfriend was unable to take her in on account of the work she does, not much time to take care of a Cat. We are praying to God to find her a really suitable home for this young feline, she's precious and deserves the best owner and home.

Found this sweet boy a couple months ago and took him in because it was cold. I have other pets so looking to find him a good home. Super snuggly and loves to play. Gets along great with cats and dogs. Got him all up to date and neutered at the vet to be ready for a loving home. He has an unregistered microchip that can be put in your name. Overall a great cat! Would probably be best with another pet because he loves to play with them.

Mommy is a very chilled and relaxed cat. She not much of a big people person. She like to sleep a lot and comes around when she wants. If you looking for a cat that you just want around, she would be great. Most people that says they are not a cat person, ends up liking mommy because she so chilled. Unfortunately, I’m taking a new job won’t be able to care for her like she deserves.
