Story
Meet Ginger! This poor gal has had a tumultuous life - she came to TCR front declawed and with an ear tip. She was surrendered by her first owner, then returned by her second. The vet estimates her age to be around 8 years old. Ginger is a loving girl who wants nothing more than *just the right amount* of attention. She is talkative and expressive - she will let you know when she is lonely or craving attention and will have a whole conversation if you want. Ginger is a play hard nap hard kind of gal, so she will need you to run around with her a lot, then give her a nice spot to snooze in later. She shows her love by sleeping in bed next to you every night, and being a lap warmer in the colder months. She tends to get overstimulated when excited or stressed, so it's best to let her decide when to be petted! Unfortunately, she will sometimes swat or use her mouth to tell her people when she's had enough (probably because of the declawing.) We think that Ginger would do best in a home where her adopters are willing to be patient with her and provide affection, but not push her boundaries. Small children are not likely to be a good fit for her as they may not be able to pick up on the signs and signals of overstimulation in cats. Ginger would probably do well as the only kitty in the home, or with a more easygoing cat that likes to play. With a very careful introduction, she is currently living with another younger cat and doing well. A lot of her nibbling seems to be from wanting to play and not knowing how to express it, so having another cat has significantly reduced this. She is not currently being fostered with a dog, but briefly met one and seemed relatively unphased. She may be able to live with a calm pup, with proper introductions. Ginger is estimated to be about 8 years old. She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, flea treated, and has tested FIV/FeLV-. Do you have a loving, patient home for a sweet older cat that knows exactly what she wants? Please apply today!

Story
Oh, Fozzie! Fozzie came to us as a kitten with his littermates and mom when we were alerted to a notorious baby-makin' mama who oops! did it again. Fozzie is our longest TCR resident... and we (really) aren't sure why! Fozzie is the type of cat that most adopters ask about - once he warms up he is friendly, outgoing, playful, easy to handle, purry, good with other cats, good with kids... you name it! We think he could likely even get along with cat-friendly doggos, with proper introductions (although he has not yet met a dog here at TCR). Fozzie currently spends his days chilling in one of our foster rooms, lounging on the cat trees, playing hide and seek in a large cardboard box, and wresting with his foster kitty pals. He's usually one of the first kitties to come out to greet his foster mom when she enters the room, and he loves being petted and receiving attention. He especially also loves Churu treats. He can be a touch shy at first when he's encountering something new, but he usually gets over this pretty quickly - especially if he has some other outgoing cat friends around! We think that he will be a really amazing companion in his forever home! Fozzie is just over 2.5 years old. He has been neutered, dewormed, flea treated, microchipped, vaccinated, and has tested FIV/FeLV-. He has always been healthy while in our care, but he did have two littermates who were diagnosed with FIP (feline infectious peritonitis) back in 2022. FIP can have a genetic component, which may make Fozzie more likely to be susceptible to the disease. We would encourage any adopters interested in Fozzie to be overly cautious and educate themselves on the signs and symptoms of the disease, and we are happy to discuss this further with anyone interested in adopting him. Are you interested in giving Fozzie the forever home he so very much deserves? Please apply today!

Story
Sweet girl Gary came to TCR when she and 18 of her friends were trapped outside of a single residence. Although the kitties had a wonderful caretaker who was feeding and caring for them, the neighbors in the area disliked the cats and were devising cruel ways to get rid of them. Gary is still learning how to be brave in her foster home. She looks up to her other kitty friends and models after them, so a confident buddy in her forever home would likely help her feel more at ease. She'd be a great "cat for your cat" friend, especially while she is getting used to you! Once she is comfortable, Gary allows petting and *might* even enjoy it. We think she has the potential to be a really darling little companion, but her future adopters will have to put in some work to help her get there. Staring her out in one small room and spending time relaxing with her daily would be key. Like her friends, Gary hasn't been mean or aggressive - she's just a little scared (and who can blame her after what she's been through). Gary may be able to live with cat-savvy, older, respectful kiddos, but young children would likely be too much for her. None of the cats from this location have been fond of dogs, so no puppers, please! Gary is estimated to be about 4.5 years old. She has been spayed, dewormed, flea treated, microchipped, vaccinated, and has tested FIV/FeLV-. If you have room in your home and heart to help this sweet little kitty blossom, please apply today!
