I got Razzle at the Pet store in Orange Park. He was 3 months old. When I've saw him 3 times I knew it was meant to be. He is now 7 months old and loves to play! He loves to explore and investigate everything.

Story
Prince is 8 years old born Feb.05, 2017 in Bronx, NY. (Currently in Florida).Had him since April 2,2017. Prince is an indoor only cat with no health issues or history of such. Loves toys & paper balls, very laid back & energetic for his age(still doing zoomies). He answers to Prince-Prince, Fat-Fat, Prince or Pooh-Pooh. Loves getting rubbed down everywhere but his belly. He loves having his arms stretched. Great cuddle bug, emotional support, and very photogenic. Enjoys Blue Wilderness & Purina Cat Chow. Scoop Away Multicat & Fresh Step is Highly recommended with a litterbox that has a hood. Bathes once a month in oatmeal shampoo to reduce hairballs, dirt build up & dry skin. I had him all throughout my 20s but due to overwhelming circumstances & the fact that I'm ng into the military, I can no longer keep him by my side. I am looking for someone who has patience, loves animals, is dedicated & can provide Prince with the loving, stable forever home he deserves with unlimited treats.

I moved here from Alaska and adopted Josie at the end of January. Unfortunately, I have to return to Alaska on March 11 and am unable to take her with me. She is about three months old and is in need of someone who can spend time cuddling her. She loves to fetch and is very active. She does like to sleep next to me. Josie will do well with an individual or family who can provide lot of love and attention.

Pumpkin is a lapcat, but has to many siblings in the house. She is very lovey, soft, and will sleep next to you or on you. She would do best with 2 or less cats. She was raised with a large dog and several cats. She is fixed and an indoor cat. She does go in a kennel outside for a couple hours a day and enjoys it.

My son found this kitten abandoned when she was very little. I told him he could keep it as long as he took care of it but he isn't. I have a small dog and that's all I want to care for. She is a typical rambunctious kitten, she loves playing with my yorkipoo and is good with people but will hide if we have a crowd over. She isn't spayed because she's under 6 months old. She's around 5 months now and right at 6lbs. She comes with all her cat accessories, the robotic cat litter box, it's the Furrytail automatic cat litter box on Amazon if you want to look it up. We paid about $400 for it last November and it works great. Her cat tree which she really loves and is big enough for someone with multiple cats, and her bubble backpack which she does great traveling in. Litter robot and cat tree and pictured above. She's never been around other cats but as well as she plays with my dog I'd think she'd love playing with them too once she got used to them.

Story
Larry's mom took him in as a stray, and he spent a long time being loved and feeling safe. He spent each night sleeping right on his mom's chest. Unfortunatley, Larry's mom recently passed away and he is looking for a new home. Larry has lived with other cats and dogs and did well with both. While the other cat and dogs in the home have already found placement, Larry is the last one left with nowhere to go. He is shy around new people, but who can blame him with all the chaos of his life changing. We are looking for a foster home or better yet adopter for this sweet, gentle cat. When he was at the vet he was even making biscuits while getting his exam! Please tell all your friends! March 22, 2025, 11:35 am

Story
This wonderful girl needs a new home. Our golden retriever harasses her for not being a dog. We just want her to be free inside her home. She gets along with other pets. We had a second cat and they got along great. Our golden is just a punk and she deserves better. The beauty of Bagherra is the older she gets the more affectionate she becomes. On quiet mornings, we are greeted with warm meows and side snuggles. As we sit on the couch, she nestles beside us. B is always down for news or a good Netflix movie. Unfortunately, we have become so busy that we cannot spend time with her and want her to have a home where she can get quality time with her people. Likes Meox Mix, Indoor/outdoor, Very affectionate, She prefers snuggles and petting over being held, Best in calm environment, She is good with adults and older kids. She rubs up against our dog when he is peaceful. If you have a dog, it is best if he is low key. Cats are no problem. We will miss her. You will love her.

I got her at Pet Supermarket in November of 2022. She's two years and seven months old. I'm looking for someone who will care for her with much love. I've enjoyed my time with her and love her a lot. She's a very shy cat, but once you're around her enough, she will warm up to you. She's so cute, she likes to sit in my lap when I'm sitting or on my legs when I'm sleeping. She gets her moments of energy, then sleeps the rest of the time. You will enjoy her.
