Story
Say hello to Iceman. Iceman is a sweet quiet young man who is looking for a patient home. He actually loves being in your lap but needs a home willing to give him time to settle in and who understands he wants to ask for attention vs receive it randomly. He absolutely loves other cats, particularly other friendly playful cats, and would make a great companion for another young cat or kitten. Iceman is a quiet shy cat who's had a rough life in his 1.3 years. Iceman was originally with FOR as a kitten, was adopted and when he was about 8 months, he was diagnosed with FIP. FIP is considered fatal, however there is an experimental treatment that shows a lot of promise and his adopters decided to get him started with it. Part way through the 3 month treatment, they decided to release him back to FOR, and he's been in a foster home since then. He completed his initial 3 months of treatment and completed a 3 month monitor period and he is as healthy as they come. Once the three month period is over with no relapse, he is considered cured from FIP, making him an #FIPWarrior and #FIPSurvivor. He is listed as special needs because of the FIP in his past, although it is not expected to influence him again. The initial stages of FIP treatment are very painful, so he has anxiety about being approached and being grabbed. He is very happy to approach you and sit on your lap and be petted, but he wants it to be on his terms. Do you have a special place for Iceman? He's alive thanks to his treatment, he's healthy as can be and he just needs a kind and patient home who understands his quirks. He's fully vetted, neutered and ready to move on (preferably to home with a cat buddy too).

Hi, I'm Charlie, an adorably sweet tabby looking for my forever home. I'm equal parts lovebug and playful, though I'm a bit shy. As such, I need someone patient so that I can take my time getting to know and trust you. Once I do, I will give you my WHOLE heart, which I've been told is quite a special thing. I have snuggles to give in abundance, slow blinks aplenty, and I even throw in some little love bites when I really like you. I get along with other well-mannered cats and am ready to fill your home with love. If you're looking for the purrfect pair, my sister, Boots, is a love match ready to go and I won't leave without her! Will you be the one to give her the warmth and companionship I crave?

Story
Dustin was born in April, 2022 on my property and has lived here ever since. He was mostly an outside cat, but only out of necessity. Recently it has become impossible for the cats to live outside, so he’s been strictly inside the house for a few weeks. He’s so friendly and gentle and loves human interaction. He loves the other cats here and gets along well with my two dogs. I don’t want to see him go, but I know that he would be happier in a home with fewer animals and more human attention. He’s very snuggly, and loves to stay near humans as much as possible. Ideally, I would love to see him adopted into the same home as Nancy and/or Jonathan (they are brothers or cousins), who I am also listing here. I realize though that that might not be possible, and as long as they have happy forever homes, then I’ll be so grateful. Please feel free to email me with questions or to arrange a visit!

Story
My cat came to me at the age of around four weeks. My daughter found him in a ditch and asked if she could bring him to my house. This was in February 2017. I’m a single parent and all my children are grown so the cat is only used to me and being around me. He takes time to warm up to new things, other cats or dogs and people. He is very affectionate with me. Loves to rub my nose or smack at my moving hand to be petted. He’s content when I’m out of the house. I may find him sleeping on my robe or under the bed and even behind the dresser.
