Story
Reuben is my best friend. He has been with me for 7 years and is roughly 10 years old. He has his quirks. He is house trained and very sweet. But he ultimately needs to be in a home more suitable for him. He has some separation anxiety and plays/bites rough sometimes. I have never seen him with another cat, but I believe he could function well with them. He is not a shy cat and LOVES being around people and loves attention. Ultimately I am moving in with a dog and he does not get along. The best possible situation is a one cat household with someone that can give him all the love he deserves.

Story
I was a foster for Corvus & Talitha and they are ready for their forever home. They are a brother and sister duo who love each other very much ! It is best they stay together. They are very cuddly and outgoing and kind with new people. They were born April 12, 2024 so they still have a lot of playfulness and energy. Talitha has a vestibular murmur in her heart she was born with, meaning she needs a calm and peaceful home. Most often cats born with this have longer life spans than those who develop them in life. I keep an eye out for if she starts panting during playtime and that tells me it’s time to rest. Otherwise, she is a loving and magical sweet girl who loves to lay on your lap- especially in the mornings.

Story
14 year old, all black, male cat. Needs Thyroid medicine every day. We adopted Bullit from the humane society about eight years ago and he has been a good cat, but also difficult at times. He tolerates my female cat although they have fought occasionally, and he really, really does not like the dogs that we have added to the family. My male dog and Bullit have gotten into some very serious fights that led to near vet visits and a recommendation to separate them for a time. Because of the Thyroid medication and the fighting, I have kept Bullit quarantined for a while in one of my spare bedrooms, but it really doesn't seem fair to keep him there. I would love to find him a home where he can be an only pet for the next 4 to 6 years that he has left. He also has dandruff but doesn't consistently eat fish oil or skin care treats. I am starting a conditioner to see if that helps. He is up to date on shots and had a dental cleaning within the last year. I can provide veterinary docs.

These pups are in Lakewood, Colorado too!

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.
