Story
Bubbles (Peppercorn) is an approximately 10 month old spayed female. Pictures don’t do her justice, she’s a striking girl with the silkiest fur. Bubbles plays hard to get, but under that independent exterior is a sweet, funny girl. With time, patience, play time, and squeeze snacks you’ll win her over. She’s great with calm, friendly dogs. Introductions to new cats aren’t out of the question but there are caveats her foster can explain further to any interested adopters. Bubbles is adorably cross eyed and may have some problems with depth perception but this does not slow her down. She also loves splashing around in water and requests to be adopted with her sister Buttercup (Liquorice). Her mom Blossom (Anise) completes this perfect trio if interested in all 3. Bubbles’ wish list: * A calm environment where she isn’t alone a lot. * Access to water to splash in (little puddle in the bathtub works great). * Access to windows / window seats. * Room to climb and explore. * Cardboard boxes and packing paper are a plus.

Story
Buttercup (Liquorice) is an approximately 10 month old spayed female. Buttercup, like her sister, is a little slow to warm up. She’s quicker to rub up against your legs and purr than she is to want pets, but she just needs a little time. Patience, playtime, and squeeze snacks will help to win her over. She absolutely loves calm, friendly dogs. Introductions to new cats aren’t out of the question but there are caveats her foster can explain further to any interested adopters. Buttercup requests to be adopted with her sister Bubbles (Peppercorn). Her mom Blossom (Anise) completes this perfect trio if interested in all 3. Buttercup’s wish list: * A calm environment where she isn’t alone a lot. * Access to water to splash in (little puddle in the bathtub works great). * Access to windows / window seats. * Room to climb and explore. * Cardboard boxes and packing paper are a plus. * Occasional licks of whipped cream or peanut butter won’t be declined.

Story
Born in the wild, Elektra is a blend of sweet curiosity and playful shyness. She will hide for the first month(s) after adoption, but don't be disheartened. This is merely her way of feeling out her surroundings, a testament to her keen sense of caution and intelligence. Elektra is sweet when she trusts you and she lets you pet her. Her favorite thing in the world is to be scratched under the chin while she lays in the sunshine from the window. She wants to be loved and love you back! She has recently started coming downstairs to visit and play with some of the other kitties. She is in the room with the dogs, but keeps her distance. If you think you would be a good fit, please fill out an application. You will get a call from me (their foster mom) and we can talk more about her needs.

🐾 **Meet Hamburglar: The Shy Snack Seeker!** 🐾 Introducing Hamburglar, a charming and elusive little feline who embodies the playful spirit of his namesake! This shy kitty may be reserved, but his curiosity and sweetness shine through in the most delightful ways. ✨ **About Hamburglar**: Hamburglar is a very shy boy who takes his time to warm up to new faces and environments. You’ll often find him peeking from behind corners, couches, or coffee tables, curious yet cautious about the world around him. His shyness makes every little interaction a precious moment, as he slowly discovers that he’s safe and loved. 🌟 **Personality**: Though he may be shy, Hamburglar is also food motivated, and this is what often brings him out of his hiding spots! He has a particular fondness for his churro treats, and when it’s treat time, you might catch a glimpse of him darting out with excitement. Hamburglar enjoys playing with toys, but often prefers to observe from a distance before joining in on the fun. One memorable night, after falling asleep on the couch, I opened my eyes to find Hamburglar sitting on the coffee table just a few feet away, quietly watching me sleep. It was such a heartwarming moment that perfectly captured his shy yet curious nature! 😂 🏡 **Ideal Home**: Hamburglar would thrive in a calm, loving home where he can feel secure as he adjusts to his new surroundings. A quiet environment with plenty of cozy hiding spots will help him come out of his shell at his own pace, allowing him to explore and build his confidence. If you’re looking for a gentle and sweet companion who may take a little time to open up but will surely capture your heart, Hamburglar is the perfect match! Bring this shy snack seeker into your home and enjoy watching him blossom! 🌍🐈‍⬛

Story
Meet Oracle, a loving little soul with a journey that showcases her resilience and spirit! When she first arrived, Oracle was a shy kitty battling an infection and adjusting to her new surroundings. With a little extra time and lots of love, she blossomed into a curious and playful companion. Despite her initial progress, Oracle faced challenges with anxiety that led her to bite and lick herself. To help her heal, she spent some time in a cone-though she was quite the escape artist at first! After some dedicated one-on-one time and patience, she's learned to accept the cone, and I often find her comfortably lounging in it, ready for playtime or cuddles. Oracle takes daily medication to help manage her anxiety. After some trial and error, we've found a foolproof method for her to take it-she happily eats it mixed with her favorite Sheba wet food, topped off with Feline Greenies dental treats. With a steady diet of wet and dry food, she's thriving and full of energy! This sweet girl adores my other two cats and became fast friends with them, showing her affectionate nature. Oracle's favorite napping spot is right on your lap, and she's always quick to join you the moment she hears the recliner go up. She loves to play, especially with toys she can carry around and that make noise, and you'll often find her favorite toys scattered throughout the house. Oracle is looking for a loving forever home where she can continue to thrive, surrounded by gentle hands and warm laps. If you're ready to open your heart to this delightful girl, Oracle is eager to share her love and playful spirit with you!

Story
This is my sweet girl Kikio. She is 10 years old and will be 11 early 2024. My brother brought her home it was July 2013. She’s my ride or die. We have been thru everything together. But she does not like my 19 mo old daughter. She doesn’t have a good history with kids either. She needs a lot of attention and cuddles and time as she’s older now! I unfortunately can’t keep up with her. And she’s sent my daughter to the ER at least 3 times. Both my daughter and kikio deserve to be in safe environments where they feel comfortable and at home! I’m searching for someone who has the time and patience and love to give my lil old lady. it breaks my heart to do this. But I know someone out there can provide a better environment for her to live freely and not feel the need to be violent. I’m hoping she’ll land in good hands. Please message me with serious inquiries only. I appreciate your time!

Story
Meet Sam (Samuel) and Stewie (Stewart) 🧡 These sweet boys are a bonded pair & have been together since birth. They are strictly indoor cats and have been their whole life. They are gentle and well behaved. They are calm for the most part but love to play with each other and with toys occasionally. With their adoption, two cat trees, lots of toys, litter boxes, litter, food and bowls, water fountains, and grooming items can come with them! These boys are shy but once they get used to the people they are around, they are super friendly and sweet. They are on a urinary prescription diet, mainly to prevent crystals/urinary blockages that male neutered cats are prone to. Stewie (the light orange cat) had a flare up once that thankfully resolved itself, but the vets suggested keeping him on a prescription diet would be smart to prevent it from being a future risk. Please message me if you are interested in giving these sweet boys a new, good, and loving home!

Maggie and Kiera are 6 years young. Litter mates who have a beautiful bond. Maggie will lie next to you on the sofa while Kiera will be looking for play. They get along great with my doggies and Maggie enjoys snuggling with them. They are indoor only kitties, as they are declawed. They have great litter box manners. I’m needing to rehome them, as my disabled sister is coming to live with me and she is highly allergic to kitties. Please consider giving these kitties a home together. They are so bonded, I will not split them up.

Story
Meet Zelda, our sweet and cuddly cat who has been with us since she was a kitten. She’s front-paw declawed (done before we realized it wasn’t recommended) and absolutely loves to nap and snuggle. Zelda thrives in a calm, quiet environment where she can receive lots of love and attention. In our busy household with young kids, she has occasionally peed outside the litter box, likely due to stress as that’s what the vet said as well. We believe she would do much better in a peaceful home where she can feel secure and relaxed. If you’re looking for a loving companion and can provide a calm space for her, Zelda would make a wonderful addition to your family.
