Story
Me and my brother Goliath were left outside when our family moved away and left us behind. A nice neighbor gave us food but we really want to move back inside and have families of our own! After a couple of weeks, my foster parents noticed I drank and urinated alot. They did some bloodwork on me and discovered I have chronic kidney disease. I am so lucky they brought me in and I'm not living on the street anymore! I am so easy going and affectionate. I need special food and a supplement and may need more care in the future to help me manage my kidney disease, but I'm so so worth it. I have so much love to give! ##2036283##

Story
Buddy and his four sisters were part of a very large colony in South Tampa.  Over 40 cats were being taken care of by an elderly couple. A neighbor reached out of help and one of our amazing trappers got to work. All of cats in the colony were TNVR or found thier way into resuce. Buddy is the only boy of the panther group. He is extrmely affectionate and will make an ideal lap cat or shoulder cat. He loves to sit on his foster mom's shoulder!  Like all young kittens he is very active and is bursting with energy. He will do best with a family that already has a young cat to be his best friend or to stay with one of his siblings. Please contact us for more information. ##2101193##

Story
Meet Pumpkin and Spice, a delightful duo of 3-year-old orange tabby sisters in search of their fur-ever home. Pumpkin is a sweet and shy cuddle enthusiast, while Spice, the brave one, enjoys bird and lizard watching on the lanai. Both cats are spayed, up-to-date on vaccines, and ready to bring warmth and joy to a loving home. Though available for individual adoption, we'd love to see these inseparable sisters stay together. It's heartbreaking that they were found abandoned, but your compassion can give them a second chance to find a loving family they truly deserve. If you're ready to open your heart and home and add some feline charm to your life, please reach out. Your kindness can make a lasting difference in Pumpkin and Spice's lives. 🏡🧡 #RescueCats 🐾💕

We took Lucky in as a rescue in 2016 and he has been a great addition to our family. Unfortunately, we can no longer keep him and he does need a home where he will be taken care of as soon as possible. He is great with children and does get along with my dog but did not at first. He is also very vocal.

Acquired Beau from a friend who had a litter of cats. He is about 3 years old and 15lbs . Now that both my kids have moved off to college it is hard to take care of Beau cause I travel a lot for work. He is a good cat and fairly energetic. He likes to play outside and eat dry food.
