Story
Hello, my name is Maple and I am a 9 week old American short-hair that was found inside a car engine in downtown St. Louis. I was very afraid of people at first but after my fosters took me home and gave me a bath I learned people are friends and I love getting attention from them. I still need my booster shots and to be spayed. (Maple was found in a downtown St Louis parking garage where she was hiding under cars. After two baths and a check up at the local vet she is ready to find her forever home. She still needs to be spayed and receive her vaccine booster. She is very playful and friendly and excited to meet you.)

Story
Riker is an extremely sweet adult boy who has always been an inside cat. He is shy and a bit skittish at first but warms up quickly and loves to snuggle. He has a fantastic temperament with kids and has lived with children his entire life. He lives with dogs and cats and loves them as well. Unfortunately he has never taken to the litter box no matter what techniques we have tried (and we've tried them all). For whatever reason he picks his spots and that's where he goes Ex. Bottom of the steps and wash room. We've tried for 6 years but unfortunately it's not a sustainable situation anymore. If you're interested in adopting Riker, we will get him current on all of his shots prior. Number of current animals must be made known and possible house visit prior to adoption may be required. If for an reason at anytime Riker needs to be rehomed after adoption, he must come back to us and we will make arrangements.

Story
Sahara is 4yrs old. She was born March 27th 2020. She does have a sister named Scar who is also being rehomed. They have been together since 4 months old. They both have lived in two different houses with 2 different dogs. They are timid at first and but eventually they do warm up. If going to a house with other pets, i strongly recommend a slow introduction for both of them. Scar and Sahara are a pair and WILL NOT be separated. Sahara is very talkative and loves to sing. She greets me every time i walk through my door and follows me everywhere. The pattern on her body reminds me of the Sahara desert which is how she got her name. She has a very playful, outgoing personality. She loves the outdoors and love tall places. Her favorite toy is the wand and dont get too surprised if she crawls under the covers and cuddles with you at night. She loves warmth and loves pets. She is very outgoing and very welcoming. She says hi to everyone and loves attention.
