Story
2 years and 2 months I have been with my foster momma! I was just a wee baby when she got me and my brothers. I have been with her for a long time because I have anxiety and prefer to be the only cat, no dogs, and no kids. I am the usual housecat that likes to lounge around the house in the sun, and in my special bed! I take an oral medication daily for my anxiety. When my foster momma comes in the door I am waiting for her because she knows I love to be pet from my neck down to my tail. If you want a loyal girl who will come to you on her terms give her a loving home! Please give foster mom a call before adopting (813-928-9252, Audrey) ##1641320##

Story
Fantine did such an amazing job of raising her babies, now it's HER turn for a loving forever home! Because she walks with a bit of a limp, she would love a quiet home where she can chill out and take it easy. The vets tell us it's an old neurological injury; no broken bones, no pain and no action items, just a little quirk that makes our girl that much more special and makes us SO GLAD we saved her and she's not running around outside, trying to avoid predators. Easy going girl with purrfect litterbox manners, too! ##2040152##

I am such a cool girl FULL of personality! I'll probably act a bit shy when you first meet me but I'll be in your lap demanding attention before you know it. I LOVE dogs (weird, right?) and I'm full of energy. Most of all, I love spending time chirping at my humans. Treats are good, too! ##1843424##

My name is Jagger and I'm a handsome tuxedo kitty Cat Man Chris helped rescue from the streets! I had an open wound on my neck that needed vet attention, but don't worry, I'm all healed now. I'm verrrrrry affectionate (and have known to try to head butt people on occasion... SORRY for trying to SHARE my love!!!!!!!) and have a soft meow. My ideal home is as an only child because I love all of the attention! I am FIV positive but I can still live a long and healthy life with the correct care from my family.

Story
**Bonded with Milo and looking for a home together!** Little Alfie was found with 16 other kitties abandoned in a tent and needed immediate medical attention due to severe neglect. He had an eye infection that unfortunately was left untreated for far too long and in order to save his life, the vet had to remove both of his yes. Alfie is now fully vetted, healed, both physically and emotionally and ready for a home with his best friend, Milo! Alfie is not only adorable, but he is so sweet, brave and outgoing! He loves to snuggle with his foster mom and his kitten friends when he is not playing, climbing and exploring! Alfie loves to play with any and all toys, chirping while he is doing so and sometimes can be in his own little world entertaining himself while everyone else is napping. Milo and Alfie are best buddies and always playing, snuggling and grooming each other. Both have been in a foster home with other cats, small dogs and get along well with everyone, but due to their small size and Alfie being blind, we are not recommending a home with small children, or rambunctious dogs. Applications can be found on our website at animalluvrs.org All of our adoptable rescues have a clean bill of health (unless otherwise stated), are spayed/neutered, vaccinated (age-appropriately), tested (FeLV/FIV for cats, HW for dogs over 6 months of age), current on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped. This is all included in their adoption fee that goes in as a donation to help us cover their medical costs and continue to help other animals in need. Any questions, concerns and suggestions, please feel free to contact us at ALDR@animalluvrs.org.

**Bonded with Alfie and looking for a home together!** Sweet little Milo was found outside and brought to safety by a good samaritan who reached out to us for help! He moved into one of our foster homes and has been thriving ever since. Milo is now fully vetted and ready for his very own family with his best friend Alfie! This fuzzy young man is just the absolutely sweetest. He loves to snuggle with his foster mom and his kitten friends when he is not playing, climbing and exploring! Milo has never met a strange and loves everyone he meets! Being the sweet kitten he is he took Alfie, a tiny, blind and scared kitten under his wing showing him the ropes and helping him feel happy, confident and loved. Milo and Alfie are best buddies and always playing, snuggling and grooming each other. Both have been in a foster home with other cats, small dogs and get along well with everyone, but due to their small size and Alfie being blind, we are not recommending a home with small children, or rambunctious dogs.

Story
Betty Crocker and her kittens, Mr. Butters and Cassie-Roll were found in sad condition, struggling to survive in a field. Animal control brought them to our local country shelter who reached out for help and thankfully we had an amazing foster home take them in. Betty was flea infested, dehydrated, extremely under weight, but still as sweet as she could possibly be. This biscuit making mom was doing her best to care for her wittle kittens that were only days old and was so thankful for a safe place to stay, a full tummy, and medications that rid her of fleas. It's been more than 2 months since their rescue and EVERYkitty is thriving. Betty is a VERY friendly, sweet, young, playful, purring lady. She LOVES to play with her kittens, greets everyone with rubs, loves scratches, AND has befriended every kitty and pup in her foster mom's home. She is outgoing, gorgeous, sweet natured, and a dream to be around. If you're looking for an adorable, cuddle bug of a kitty, Betty is the cat for you. We are looking for a home for Betty the kitten she took in, Drew. Applications can be found on our website at animalluvrs.org All of our adoptable rescues have a clean bill of health (unless otherwise stated), are spayed/neutered, vaccinated (age-appropriately), tested (FeLV/FIV for cats, HW for dogs over 6 months of age), current on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Lemon has been in our care for nearly three years and is still searching for her furever home! She joined our ALDR family as a 6 month old kitten when she was trapped along with many other cats that a good Samaritan was unable to care for any longer. Shortly after she was diagnosed with stomatitis and lost all of her teeth, but that did not stop her from enjoying dry food. However, she loves her wet food and churu treats and would prefer those over crunchy food. She was extremely unsocialized at that time and it took a patient, dedicated and loving foster home to show her that she was safe and loved! Lemon is all white with two different colored eyes, which makes her absolutely stunning! She has come a long way and now enjoys snuggles and pets from her foster, but due to her rough past, she is still a little unsure of humans and easily startled, so she will need a patient, kitty savy and understanding home that will continue to show her love! Lemon loves other cats and is often found snuggle with them, grooming them and wrapping her tail around them when she is in a snuggly mood. She also loves wand toys and will try and "hunt" them. However, her favorite are catnip toys which get her rolling around and playing with them. Lemon is a sweet, gentle and gorgeous kitty that is still gaining her confidence and we would love to find her a furever home that will continue to help her thrive! If interested in adopting, please fill out the adoption application on our website at animalluvrs.org All of our adoptable rescues have a clean bill of health (unless otherwise stated), are spayed/neutered, vaccinated (age-appropriately), tested (FeLV/FIV for cats, HW for dogs over 6 months of age), current on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped.

Story
ADOPT ME Willow is 3 and half years old, incredibly sweet, and loved pets and snuggles. She has made friends with the other kitties in her foster home and is enjoying life. She loves playing with toys, but will forgo playtime for snuggles any chance she gets. She is a little clumsy and wobbly, so we suspect Willow has very mild CH (Cerebellar hypoplasia), which is a neurological condition in which the cerebellum is smaller than usual or not completely developed. It is not contagious, requires no treatment and is non progressive, just makes them extra cute! Willow's ideal home would be with another sweet and playful kitty and humans that enjoy very affectionate cats. Apply to adopt Willow at animalluvrs.org. All of our adoptable rescues have a clean bill of health (unless otherwise stated), are spayed/neutered, vaccinated (age-appropriately), tested (FeLV/FIV for cats, HW for dogs over 6 months of age), current on flea and heartworm prevention and microchipped.

Story
Me and my brother Goliath were left outside when our family moved away and left us behind. A nice neighbor gave us food but we really want to move back inside and have families of our own! After a couple of weeks, my foster parents noticed I drank and urinated alot. They did some bloodwork on me and discovered I have chronic kidney disease. I am so lucky they brought me in and I'm not living on the street anymore! I am so easy going and affectionate. I need special food and a supplement and may need more care in the future to help me manage my kidney disease, but I'm so so worth it. I have so much love to give! ##2036283##
