Story
All about Scooter! Personality type: Lovebug Likes: Cushy beds and butt scratches Dislikes: other cats, wet food A little more about me: Hi, I'm Scooter! I'm a 15-year-old who arrived at SPCA Florida after my owner passed away. His loss was hard on me but the staff here has helped me to heal and I am ready to find a new person to love. I am a sweet senior gentleman looking for a mellow household to enjoy my golden years. I love human companionship but do not demand constant attention. I would love a homebody like me to share my days and nights. I'll happily while away the hours watching all your favorite movies or shows. I really enjoy company when I eat, so mealtime is great for our bonding. I am great at carrying on a conversation, too! Oh the stories I could tell! I promise to never let you feel lonely! If you're looking for love, come meet me and see just how special I can make you feel.

Story
This is Adam and Eve. They are a bonded pair, so they need to be adopted together. They are very sweet kitties and love attention once they warm up to you. The previous owner could no longer care for them as she traveled so much, and she couldn't give them the attention they needed. Due to circumstances, Adam and Eve may be subject to a pre home visit. Please only ask about them if you have room for both and remember when adopting a bonded pair. If one is returned, they both must be returned.

My name is Gemma, I love attention ,exploring, climbing on you, being petted. However I don't really like being picked up or held. I'm more of an on my own terms kitty. So be careful cause I fight to get down if you pick me up and I may unintentionally scratch you. I need a forever home with someone whom has patience and understanding. Maybe one day I won't mind being held. Please consider giving me a forever home with you!

Don't you just love tuxedo kitties?! This is Mia, who is available for adoption. She's a true Tuxedo with her shiny black and white coat, white socks, little white stripe, and the most adorable black heart on her nose. Mia is about a year and 6 months old. She's loving and playful but is very much independent. Mia is used to living in her foster home with two small dogs and two other cats but would prefer to be the only pet in the household. She would also do better with older kids. Contact us if you're interested in a meet and greet with Mia.

Story
Sadie is an approximately 2.5-year-old, solid black kitty with pale green eyes. She's an attention-seeking girl with a wonderful personality. While all the other kitties are gobbling up their treats, Sadie is practically doing somersaults to get noticed by our volunteers! She just wants some lovin'. She'll jump onto a nearby shelf and nudge your hand for head and chin scratches. Since we trapped Sadie was in a cat colony, one of her ears is tipped. The plan was to release her back, but she was so friendly we decided to adopt out this lovable kitty. She gets along very well with other cats and would do fine with a small dog. The ideal home would be one with someone who can furnish her with the love and attention she longs for. We would prefer someone who works remotely from home, or a mature person or couple who can a provide a quiet environment to give her the time she needs to adjust. She would be comfortable with older kids, but no small children. If interested in meeting Sadie, contact us to set up a meet and greet.
