Story
Loki is a sweet and affectionate 6-year-old cat. He gets along well with other cats, kittens, dogs (big or small), and especially people. Loki loves attention and will often be found curled up on your lap. He warms up to strangers quickly and would make a wonderful addition to any family. I am rehoming him because I am moving out of the country and believe it’s in his best interest to find a new home. I’m committed to finding him the best possible family. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

Story
I have had Baby since she was born, her mom was my first cat. She is turning 12 years old in February and she is in great mental and physical condition. I have been taking her to regular check-ups, blood work and dental cleanings. She is a little bit on the chubby side, but according to her vet, she is incredibly healthy for her age. She absolutely loves people, warms up to anyone, even to complete strangers immediately. She has lived with multiple dogs and cats in the same household before, and even though she might not warm up enough to become best friends with them right away, she doesn't mind to share the couch or the bed with them. She is a very sweet kitty, loves attention and has never shown aggressive behavior in her life. Her favorite things are cuddling, chasing her laser pointer and sitting in the window all day looking at birds and squirrels. She has always been an indoor cat and not a huge fan of going outside at all.

Story
Nugget 12.5 years American short hair Nugget is one of the sweetest cats I’ve ever met. She has a lot of energy and personality. She is very cuddly and loves to be petted and groomed. Nugget loves to scratch and so making sure there are plenty of scratching posts around would be ideal to avoid scratching furniture. Nugget currently eats Purina Liveclear hard cat food for sensitive stomach. Nugget is very much a grazer when it comes to food so being able to leave her food out would be ideal to ensure she eats enough. She likes Greenie Cat Treats as well, just don’t give too many as to spoil her appetite. She is not particularly fond of people food or soft food I’ve tried over the years to give her some extra protein to bulk her up a bit but has not taken to anything making her a picky eater. She is litter box trained and we currently use the Breeze Litter System for her. She is healthy and we have all of her records. She is up to date on all her shots.

We are a military family relocating to Hawaii and can only bring two animals unfortunately. We are trying to find Binx a loving home. He is a well mannered boy who loves cuddles. He’s been in our home with two medium dogs and two small children, so he has amazing patience and tolerates almost anything. We are open to meetings. You can also have whatever food we have left, cat tree, litter box, etc.

Binx is around 1 I’m not for sure because I got him friend and we weren’t sure how old he is and he also doesn’t have his front 2 legs. I’m looking for someone just to give him a comfortable home, Binx is a very timid he’s very shy and not very sociable but once he’s comfy he’ll come out of his shell sometimes and cuddle it’s a little rare but he likes to be left alone.

Hello all, this us miss Pomona Pots, sadly she has only been with our family for a few months and we do not have any back story from before then but we believe she is about 2 years old. She is very sweet and playful, however she doesn’t like to be carried, but our cat we’ve had for about 6 years now is not a fan of sweet Pomona and things have gotten out of hand. I don’t want Pomona to get hurt so we’ve started separating them and I just don’t want this life for either of the cats. We also have two dogs and Pomona is friendly with them but they are both fearful of cats because of our other. In a perfect world I could keep her because our nightly cuddle are something I’ve come to love but I feel keeping her isn’t fair. With that said I’m looking for a new home for her where she’s doesn’t have to live with an evil cat lol.

Story
They should be kept together, as they are very close, reliant and dependent on each other. They are 3 1/2 year old brothers (DOB 9/9/2020), all black except for Salem (the chonky one), who has a little white spot on his chest. They are fixed, micro-chipped and litter box trained. They are picky eaters but ONLY because they eat dry cat food and no expensive or canned stuff. They don't like people food (even bacon!) and only like a certain brand of treats that I've gotten them (can't remember the name right now). They are very leery of people, kids, cats and dogs, but I think they would be okay if they were around them more. They do like their peace and quiet, though. They have been indoors since birth, as we live in an area with a lot of wild animals and are next to a buy street. We do have to move out of our house before July 1st and will be, basically, homeless until we find a house, so they absolutely cannot stay with us.

Story
We purchased Poppy from a British Shorthair breeder and she came to us in 2023. She is great with dogs but has had trouble adapting to our two new kitties and would likely be best in a home with no other cats. She loves treats and lounging by her owner on the couch. She isn’t big on cuddling but loves hanging out nearby. If you are looking for a cuddle bug, she is not the one but she’s very sweet! She also enjoys being on a leash outside!
