Story
Binx is a very sweet kitty that loves to cuddle with anyone or animal that will let him. He is the only cat in a house with dogs, and he needs something that we cannot provide. He has a tendency to get bored and that leaves many things in shreds. We’ve had to baby proof our house for a cat, and not allow him in any bedrooms, confining him to the living room and kitchen. Overall, I think he needs a home that can give him more attention or other cats to keep him company. My husband and I work a lot, and frankly, our dogs are older and don’t tolerate him well. I think he would fit in with any households, but one that can give him a lot of attention would be so beneficial for him.

Story
Meet Bug, a delightful companion who has been the heart of my home and is now ready to bring joy to yours. Personality: Bug is a gentle and affectionate cat who loves to curl up beside you during quiet evenings. Her playful antics with her favorite feather toy are sure to bring a smile to your face. Favorite Activities: She enjoys lounging in sunny spots, watching birds from the window, and engaging in interactive play sessions. Buggs is also a fan of cozy naps and will often seek out the warmest spot in the house. Ideal Home: Bug would thrive in a calm environment where she can receive plenty of love and attention. She gets along well with other cats and would be a wonderful addition to a family looking for a loving companion. Health: Bug is spayed, up-to-date on her vaccinations, and has a clean bill of health. It’s with a heavy heart that I seek a new home for Buggs, but I am confident that she will bring the same warmth and happiness to her new family as she has to mine

Story
He's a sweet 10-month old boy. I have been fostering him since he was 8 weeks old. Very energetic, but loves cuddles! I have an older kitty that he does NOT get along with, or rather, the older cat isn't nice to him. He deserves a home where he'll be endlessly doted on. He's neutered and has had rabies vaccination. Knowing he'll be in a loving forever-home is worth more than any pet adoption fee I might think of asking for, hence why I ask for no money in return.

Socks is very friendly and gentle. Nothing seems to bother him. He would make a great indoor and outdoor cat as he loves the outside. He is about 3 years old, maybe younger.

Story
Scully was removed from a home where he was being starved and physically abused daily. He was taken to Planned Pethood in August of 24 and was neutered, given his rabies vaccine and dewormed. He was treated last month for pancreatitis, and is now well. He is the most affectionate cat that I’ve ever seen. He would prefer to cuddle up next to you 24/7. The only issue I’ve had at all is that sometimes when I go to leave the room, after I’ve been giving him attention, he will attack my wrist or ankle. It’s definitely more like a play attack. He doesn’t bite, but his claws seem to get me every time. The vet believes he does this because of past trauma and being abandoned so many times in his 2-3 years. I would totally keep him, but I have 3 Great Dane who are not fans. I feel like Scully has probably experienced enough trauma in his short life. I want him to have a quiet place to unwind from his horrible experiences past. Looking for a relaxing, patient and loving forever home.

Story
Mother was a befriended feral, eventually loved and raised and adopted out to another family. Unfortunately she was later returned to us, and came back verbally hostile to other cats in the home. She is a sweet and sassy girl that just needs some work and long term readjusting to other cats/animals, most likely, but we can’t currently afford to do so ourselves. Looking to give her a lovely home.
