Story
Rambi is a rescue. She was separated from her mom. I took her in and bottle fed her from an infant. She has had shots just not this year. She is six years old. Only her front claws are declawed so she is an indoor cat only as she can't protect herself if she gets outside. She has never been outside alone. Sometimes I take her outside into the sunroom in the cool of the day on a leash just to sniff around. She is pretty laid back and likes to play with small balls and soccer with tops off of water bottles. She also likes to play chase sometimes. She's skittish and afraid of strangers but once she gets to know you then she loves rubs and tugs on her ears. She he has her own blankies and a electric warming one. I put her blankets on top of my bed. She finds her spot and nestles in for the night. She's really a sweet cat. I would like a person who loves cats and is pretty laid back. Rambi likes to play but does not like a lot of noise and chaios.

Story
Hello My name is Wi-Fi! I was found outside alone wondering the street. I am not sure where my mom is and why she left me but I am glad my foster dad found me and brought me home. I love to play, I am litter trained and love to eat dry and wet cat food. My foster parents can’t keep me because they already have 2 dogs,Dexter and Buster, and, 4 cats, Mary, Kitty, Sadaf and Dash. They have a small house and are not able to keep me forever. However, my foster mom said she will make sure I go to a good, loving and caring home. If you are looking for fun, loving orange tabby to be as fast as Wi-Fi and a life long true friend please contact my foster mom. Thank you for taking your time to read my story.

Story
Darby tested negative for both FELV and FIV when he was a kitten. After he got adopted, he ran a very high fever and his adopter took him to her veterinarian. He tested FIV POSITIVE then and the vet recommended euthanasia but the adopter and Kathy Carlson said no and Kathy took him home and nursed him back to health. Darby was returned to his adopter but she developed allergies to Darby and returned him to the rescue.   Darby had to have all of his teeth removed due to severe stomatitis. Darby developed DRY/Neurological FIP and started his FIP GS Treatment on February 8, 2023 and finished his GS Treatment on May 2, 2023. Darby was deemed CURED of FIP on July 26, 2023! October 25, 2024, 4:56 pm

Story
Merry Christmas, friends, fans, and shelter family!My name is Banks, and I want to share my story in hopes of finding my perfect forever home. I became homeless on September 6, 2024, when I was found as a stray hanging out near a busy street. Thankfully, I was brought to the shelter for safety. I wasn’t microchipped, neutered, or claimed by anyone, but I was healthy and ready for a new chapter in life.Now, I’m neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, and living the good life in the catio with all my feline friends. I love being around other cats—we just click! Life at the shelter has been peaceful, but I’ve been dreaming of a cozy home to call my own.In October, I got a brief glimpse of what life could be like when I was adopted by a kind young lady who lived in a school dormitory. It seemed like a happy ending at first, but unfortunately, dorm life just wasn’t my scene. It was a bit too noisy and chaotic for me, with people constantly coming and going.After only one night, I found myself overwhelmed. During a stressful moment, I lashed out and bit her roommate’s hand when she tried to pet me. I didn’t mean to—I was just so anxious and overstimulated. The next morning, I returned to the shelter, where I immediately relaxed, felt safe, and slipped back into my old routine.Now, I know a little more about what I need: a quiet home where I can unwind without too much foot traffic. I’d love a feline companion to groom and play with—other cats really help me feel at ease. I’m not a mean cat, I promise. I just need the right environment to thrive and show my sweet, affectionate side.I know my perfect home is out there, and that’s why I agreed to tell my story. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion who adores other cats and prefers a peaceful life, I could be the one for you. Come meet me—I’m ready to find my forever family.

Story
Willow is a very active and energetic 3 year old kitty who would prefer to be an indoor/outdoor cat. She loves to sun and watch birds outside, but also likes to curl up in a chair in a quite space for her catnaps. She was taken in when her previous owners moved out of state, and unfortunately we have all transitioned from working at home back to the office, and do not have the time to devote to her. She would do best with older children as she does not like to be held, but she loves her pets and likes to sleep near you. Willow comes with a litterbox, toys, and food/water bowls.
