Story
Miss Kitty got her name because she was a stray that grew up in my yard. My neighborhood is in the desert and we get plenty of bobcats and coyotes, so outdoor cats don’t last long. I didn’t want to get too attached, but of course I did! It took me about a year to tame her, but once I let her inside the house, she’s refused to step foot outside again! She’s gained weight since she moved indoors, and she’s presently overweight. She loves cuddling and pets! She has to compete with my other cats to get it though, and she deserves more attention. She’s tolerant of some of my cats, but doesn’t get along with two. She may be fine with another cat in a new home, but might still want her own space.

Story
Clio is a very sweet that I found in the desert. She is 10 months old and small in frame. She is good with kids but not other cats. She tends to chase them as she hasn’t been able to socialize except for in the wild. She likes to snuggle and play with everything. She has high energy, but won’t bother you at night too much. Clio will use a litter box and is quite clean. She isn’t picky when it comes to food- wet or dry. She doesn’t really know how to use toys or scratching posts, but enjoys chasing things. She can be vocal if you aren’t paying attention to her, but once she is around you or snuggling, she is quiet as can be. She needs a new home where she can roam and get all the loves! Yes, she is completely free and her shots are up to date!

Story
Ring Pop was clearly someone's pet previous to April 2024, but he was cruelly left behind at an apartment complex to fend for himself outdoors. A gentle-hearted animal lover has taken Ring Pop in temporarily to protect him from outdoor dangers and the cruel temperatures of Phoenix summer. But we need to help find him a forever, permanent home. His caregivers describe Ring Pop as a well-mannered, curious lounger who isn't a lap cat but enjoys sleeping next to people. He will occasionally play toss with cat toy and is very good about getting his nails trimmed and using the litter box. He cries when he is lonely for company and attention, but seems to be quiet when his people aren't home. Appears generally friendly to other cats and is happiest when he is napping and relaxing. Can you help us place Ring Pop in a loving, comfortable home? He deserves a second-shot as a forever pet with someone who won't discard this sweet guy.

Story
Yung Lord and Mina are two cats that MUST be together. It is barely possible for us to let them go, let alone separate them. Yung Lord is a large male cat who is a mushy fat baby. His only goal in life is to sit on your lap. He is perfectly happy alone in the house, as long as Mina is with him. He cannot fight and is terrifed of dogs. Mina is a small female cat who is very unique. She loves and protects Yung Lord. She is very affectionate but much more selective than her brother. I could write a book about her strange and wonderful personality (and would if I had more characters) I am sick to be rehoming these cats. We are moving cross-country in a truck and the danger and stress this would cause our cats is not justifiable. They deserve more stability and more attention than we can offer right now. I've never had to give up an animal and it's gutwrenching. If you would be willing to let us know how they're doing and that they are loved, I would be eternally grateful.

Story
I had found Dustin overheating outside my apartment last month, he was panting and was very weak, I took him inside to be safe. I’ve been looking for someone/a rescue to take him since he was found with no luck. I really need to rehome him as I don’t have the funds for a vet visit, neuter or vaccinations, I am also moving states very soon and need to find a place for him before October. I am not sure of exact age but I’m pretty sure he’s under a year old. He is a very friendly and cuddly boy. He plays well with my male cat and they’ve become good buddies. He does have a problem with food, he will try to eat anything and everything so keep an eye out. He’s really a good boy and I would love to keep him but unfortunately cannot, please help me find him a good forever home. 🫶
