Story
This is a courtesy listing, not a SPOT Rescue cat. For more information regarding Gringo, contact Jeanne below.. Sweet 5.5 year old gorgeous fixed male Gringo with soft as a bunny white fur & stunning jade green eyes has been searching for his forever home for so long! Gringo was abandoned as a kitten at my building. I took over his care when a neighbor couldn't afford to do it but I can't keep him and need to find him a good home quickly. He loves to cuddle and listens intently. He enjoys engaging in conversation when you ask him questions, which is the most adorable thing you've ever seen. He loves playing with cat nip toys and lazing around in the afternoons on the sofa or on his cat tree house. He never has had an accident in the house and comes when called, most of the time. He's highly intelligent, playful, and social. He loves to be pet and brushed and loves rubbing his head against yours. He is just a cat with a lot of love to give. Gringo loves to touch and reach his snout up for quick kisses. Looking for an exceptionally loving, cat experienced home for this gorgeous and very special guy. He loves to sleep in bed next to you but prefers if you keep the door open. Gringo comes with his favorite toys, his cat tree house, food, his litter boxes, litter, brushes, his own fancy customized Gringo tote cat bag, and everything you need to get started. He is vaccinated and microchipped. Only the best will do for Gringo. Please help find Gringo a home by sharing this post.

Story
Meet Chase! Chase was a rescue at 4 weeks old! He was found in a field and came running out to meet a friend. I took him in and he has all of his shots, is chipped and neutered. He is 5 months old! He REALLY needs a buddy and loads of attention, he is a very gregarious, loving kitty but he just isnt happy unless he is outside a ton. We have coyotes and hawks around the area and I am just not able to have him out there unless supervised. He would do REALLY well with another buddy - a dog or cats. He just does not seem happy here and I feel like he is just lonely. Once he calms down in the afternoon he is a total love bug and weirdly he sleeps all through the night! He never wakes me up with the zoomies. I have bought him a lot of interactive toys and things but he just really seems to want companionship with a little buddy! When he is frustrated he nips and gets a little aggressive but I think if he was more preoccupied he would settle down completely. Not an apartment cat! Please Pick!

Story
Egg is a little over 2 years old from what we know, we dont know much about where she came from since we got her from a family friend who found the litter she is from. She is a super sweet cat, but she does not like loud noises or too many people. Children tend to scare her and then she hides away until they are gone or the noise dies down. I absolutely love and adore her but unfortunately having two toddlers, she is just not living the best life with our family. She would definitely be better off with a family without kids or a lot of chaos or even an older family as long as they dont have much going on. She is very independent and doesn't cause issues for our family whatsoever. We are extremely sad to see her go, but we ultimately know that our family is not the best fit for her well being so we want to make sure she is going to go to a great home who can love and care for her.

Story
This is Miss B, formerly Squeaky from the shelter I adopted her from. She’s a sweet older gal who doesn’t do well with dogs or young kids. When I first got her, she was very shy and liked to hide in the closet or under the bed, but with time and trust, she started to get comfortable and now sleeps in bed right next to me. She’s very mellow and likes to cat nap, so she won’t keep you up in the middle of the night. She’s very easy going and doesn’t require much, just wants pets and treats. I unfortunately have to rehome myself and won’t be able to take her with me. She was once a stray cat and deserves to enjoy the rest of her life in a comfortable home where she’s well taken care of. To whomever will be her next parent(s), I will include her food, food bowls, favorite toys/treats, litter box, and litter to ensure familiarity for her in the next phase of her life.

Story
We have a three-year-old male cat, perfect physical health, but with ongoing severe bathroom behavioral issues that we have been unable to curb despite working closely with the vet and a feline behavioralist for several years now. They have both agreed that something in the house is continuing to set him off, and that he would likely be happier in a different environment. We don’t feel prepared to rehome him ourselves as we don’t know how to vet new families, and dislike the thought of dropping him at a shelter, ideally he would be listed as available to adopt, and we would continue to care for him in sort of a foster situation until a new home is found.
