Story
Katie is a 13-14 year old spayed, dilute calico, low maintenance female cat who is looking for her forever home. She has lived with the same man and woman her entire life but he was recently moved to a nursing home after his wife died and she was not allowed to go with him. I have been fostering her for about 4 months now with the intentions to keep her but she is very distressed by my other two cats. She enjoys the company of my 10 month old baby, my husband, and is okay being near our small 9 pound dog too. All she really wants is a nice big window to curl up in and the occasional lap to snuggle up on. She is a very sweet old lady but gets overwhelmed very easily by the other cats in the house. Katie would do best in a home with no other cats, and preferably no active dogs or children. She is the kind of cat that just likes to relax in her armchair. Katie doesn't really enjoy playing with toys on her own, but will occasionally chase a string toy if you initiate play with her.

Story
Church is a 3 year old boy! He’s very shy initially but will show you his true colors once you win him over. He may do best as an only cat or with another confident pet friend. His favorite things include string toys, birdwatching, and an extra tall cat tree by a window. He is obsessed with spray catnip and can make an afternoon of rolling around in it on a soft surface. He has a LOT to say and loves when you respond! He especially loves being sang to.

Story
Ezekiel (multi) and Virgil (grey) are brothers that were born on 04/06/2021 They have never been separated so they are a package deal. They spend their days cuddling and playing with each other. They love to sleep next to me and cuddle in the mornings. They have only been introduced to another cat once and they weren’t happy about it so preferably no other cats in the house. Ezekiel is a social butterfly and everyone is his friend, Virgil takes a few seconds to feel someone out before opening up to them. I’m only rehoming them because my partner and his daughter are allergic. I also have a very busy schedule and feel I have not been giving them the time/life they deserve.

Story
I rescued Hosanna in Orlando FL when I lived there. I also adopted his brother. I already had adopted two kittens before the brothers. I’ve had him for at least 5-6 years. He’s skittish around strangers but when he gets to know you and the home he will come and ask for rubs. He is a really laid back and sweet baby. I have to rehome him because he doesn’t get along with one of my other cats. Never had this issue with him. Just started three months ago. However he gets along with my remaining three cats.

Story
Eloise is 10 years old and she was in a shelter for 6 years, the past 4 she has had a loving home, unfortunately I cannot take her with me to my new home. She needs an owner with patience. She does not like to be pet or picked up suddenly or she may nip you, she likes to play and go after feet, just wear shoes and she will leave you be. She meows only for food and to be let in a room with you. If you want a attached cat who is a bit sassy then Eloise is for you. No adoption fee needed, just love her and take care of her.

Story
We met Priscilla as a little down at the lake in the summer of 2024. She showed up at our door hungry and sweet. We brought her in and adapted to indoor living very quickly. She immediately took to the litter box, gets along great with our dog, and loves to cuddle, get head pats for hours and sit either next to you or in your lap. Unfortunately, she does shed a lot as she has gotten older, and acts a little wild at times and needs more space and time than we can provide her. I know this will improve as she ages. She is spayed, and we believe to be around 10 months.
