Story
Where did you acquire your pet? Mordecai was acquired through my parents’ coworker. Salem, Mordecai’s sister kitten, was adopted by me when he was 6 months old. How old is your pet? Mordecai is 3 years old, and Salem is 2 years old. What are you looking for in a new home? I am looking for a very patient and loving owner. Mordecai loves snuggling on the bed once he’s comfortable, while Salem enjoys being near you and will cry if he can’t see where you are. What adjectives would you use to describe your pet? Mordecai and Salem are cautious around strangers, food-motivated, and affectionate with people they trust. Mordecai is curious and sneaky when it comes to food, and Salem is treat-obsessed, especially with churri squeezy treats. Additional Information: Mordecai and Salem are both neutered, but only Salem is chipped.

Hunter is a lovely, cuddly boy. Unfortunately he is not doing well with my dog. He needs more time than I can give him and I am relocating and I can’t take him and the dog with me. He is strictly an indoor cat. Is litter box trained and a lap cat. He does not scratch any furniture. He enjoys his scratch pads or posts. Thank you

Looking for an adorable supervisor for your home? Look no further! I am a curious, silly, and brave kitty who loves to know what's happening. When I'm not in your business, I love to play with my toys (carboard boxes are my favorite) and cuddle with my loving humans! I also grew up with my brother, Biscoff -- so I know and love to play with kitties too! I am ready for that perfect home that wants an adorable little girl to make them smile. I am in Tennessee, but can be transported to the Northeast region to meet you if needed. If you are interested in adopting me, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com.January 5, 2025, 11:57 pm

Story
Meet Baylor - Your New Best Friend! Baylor is a 1-year-old male cat looking for his forever home. He may be a little shy at first, but once you start petting him, he’ll warm up to you quickly and show you his gentle, loving nature. Baylor is a true couch potato who loves lounging around and soaking up all the attention you’re willing to give him. He’s mellow, snuggly, and enjoys a calm, cozy atmosphere. Baylor gets along well with other cats, dogs, and children, making him an excellent addition to a family with other pets. He’s just looking for a safe space to relax, snuggle, and enjoy the simple things in life. If you’re looking for a laid-back companion to cuddle with, Baylor would be the perfect fit for you! He is currently in Tennessee, but can be transported Northeast to meet you.  If interested, please contact ccrtennessee@gmail.com.December 2, 2024, 1:01 pm

Now that she is done feeding her babies it is her turn to find a forever home. Her foster mom describes her as VERY affectionate and sweet. She loves the attention of her family and comes out willingly for unlimited pets and then finds herself sleeping close by. Fancy is up to date with all her vaccines, she is FIV/FELV negative, and kitty litter trained.
