Adopting Orange few years ago from a friend. Orange aged about 3 years and is female. Because moving to other country that want to find a new good home for her. Totally spayed. May nervous and fear at first time. Orange is a friendly, full of energy and playful girl, may need new owner to take some time to play with her. Hoping to find a new good owner for her, if acceptable, I hope new owner can send me some new messages of Orange to me regularly, appreciate.

Story
Name: Breed: Age: Gender: Weight: Good with cats or Small Animals: Good with dogs: Good with Young Children: Good with Older Children: Fenced Yard Required: Crate-Trained: House Trained: Matti came to Animalert’s care a little worse for wear and in need of some litterbox training. However,  she has come very far and is thriving in the care of one Animalert’s foster homes. Matti is approx. 4 years old, spayed and vaccinated.      Matti can be quite timid and easily startled at times and would do best in a quiet home, with someone who is home often. She is a sweet cat that enjoys the simple things in life, sleeping and eating. She often sleeps through the night and likes to start the day by politely waking her foster with gentle pats and grouchy meows. Her favourite time of day is breakfast, this is when she is most affectionate. As such, before meal times is a great time to incorporate a brushing routine. Due to Matti'sbeautiful long coat, frequent brushing is a necessity to prevent matting of the fur and hairballs.  Matti has yet to find a conventional cat toy that she loves or doesn’t get bored of easily, but she absolutely lights up when there is a bug to catch or treats to fetch.    Matti has recently become littlerbox efficient, with a key factor in her success being routine, cat attract, and positive reinforcement. To maintain her training, it will be important to establish a routine and prepare for potential mishaps during the transition period after adoption. We recommend the use of pee pads combined with an open litter box with low walls, on an easy to clean floor surface.

Story
Hello, I`m Gingy. I`m a pretty independent cat, content with my own company. I enjoy quiet corners and peaceful moments, and while I might seem shy, I`m just mellow. I like to observe the world from a comfortable distance, not always in the thick of things. You might not always see me, but I`m there, watching, understanding. I`m not one for chaos, preferring calm and tranquility. I don`t need constant attention, but I do need a loving home. I`m not just a pet, I`m a companion who will respect your space as much as I need mine. Adopt me, not for the constant purrs or playful antics, but for the serene companionship I offer.

Story
Hi, I`m Tucker! My days are filled with exploration and fun. I love to play with toys and chase imaginary mice. I`m a bit of a goofball, which makes every day an adventure. I`m also quite the scholar, always eager to learn new things. My curiosity knows no bounds! But, after a long day of play, there`s nothing I enjoy more than a good cuddle. I`m gentle and sweet, and I promise to be your brave little companion. I may be small, but my heart is big. Adopt me, and let`s fill our days with joy and laughter together!

Story
Heya human! You can call me Pumpkin for now. I am a spunky young guy who is in need of a fun furever home to pawty in! I have a lot of energy that I will need help with finding proper outlets to release my energy on. I can be a little sporadic from iem to time, especially when I get really excited for something like seeing you for the first time of the day. Like the classic cat, I have learned to headbutt and rub up on humans for more attention, the only thing I haven`t quite gotten a hold on has been what to do when i`ve gotten enough affection, I feel like I can never get enough, however the time does comes where I find myself getting overstimulated and don`t always want to walk away. For this reason I will be best suited for an adult only home where everyone can understand and respect my boundaries.

Story
Hello there, I`m Margaret. I`ve been told I`m independent, a trait I wear with pride. I enjoy my quiet time, finding comfort in my solitude. But don`t mistake my shyness for aloofness, I`m simply cautious, learning the rhythms of those around me. In my mellow moments, I`m content to simply observe, my eyes taking in the world with quiet interest. I`m not one for constant attention, but I appreciate a gentle hand and kind words. Adopting me means welcoming a serene and curious soul into your home, a companion who will respect your space while offering quiet companionship.
