Story
This is Husky, he loves playing with his liter mate brother Houdini. He enjoys sun bathing in the window, munching on treats, and getting as high up as he can and watching others while silently judging them! In his own cat-dog ways, he loves greeting his owners at the door and getting in as many leg rubs as he can get! He is a 2 year old neutered male that is completely liter box trained. He gets along with other cats, dogs, and children. I would love for him to find a home with his bonded liter mate brother Houdini if possible. * Husky and his 3 liter mates were found as kittens when they were around 8-12 weeks old. They have been examined by a vet and neutered. They have all been indoors only since found outside almost 2 years ago.

Story
This beautiful boy is Gizmo. He is an 8 year old American Shorthair and he is a sweetheart with humans, but he cannot be around other pets, which is why we are looking to rehome him into a family with no other pets, especially dogs, who can give him plenty of love and attention. He loves sitting in laps and getting pets, but he can be aggressive if prompted or if he encounters other animals. He was recently seen by a veterinarian who gave him a potential diagnosis of FIC due to prolonged time spent in the litter box and some urination on furniture, so someone experienced in cat behavior is preferred as we believe the multi-pet environment he is living in has been a factor. He is prone to anxiety and may take time to warm up to new people. He also has a benign cyst in his left elbow that should be regularly monitored for mobility as it could become dangerous to him if it stiffens. We love him so much, but it's putting so much stress on him to be with two other cats and a new puppy.

Story
Our daughter adopted these sweet brothers as kittens. She moved to England and could not take them with her. Every rehoming option fell through for her. We are unable to keep them long term due to allergies. Crouton (ginger and white) is a friendly, affectionate boy who loves attention. Caesar (dark tabby and white) is quite shy and will need time to adjust to a new home, but once he knows you, he will demand cuddles and is very loyal. They are strongly bonded with each other and call for one another, and we would like to keep them together. They do demand a clean litter box, but as long as that is maintained, they are fully housebroken.

Story
Momma was originally an outdoor cat for many years and I had slowly gained her trust and she became my indoor house cat. She is 4-5. She needed a lot of time to get used to indoor life but has adapted well now. She will need someone who is willing to put in the time to gain her trust in order for her to thrive. She is one of the most loving cats I have ever had, she loves to cuddle, be pet on, and laying with you. She allows me to pick her up, pet her, and is a very happy cat once she gets to know and trust you as her owner. She will need some time getting adapted to her environment and will mostly hide for the first few weeks to a month. She doesn’t do good with other cats and I assume dogs as well, probably do to her previous experiences with being outdoors. I have tried to get her adjusted to my two other cats for a year and it hasn’t been successful and is the reason I am trying to rehome her. She is a great cat if you give her a chance and I think she could be a great companion !

Story
Emilio was found as a kitten walking on the sidewalk by himself. So, naturally I claimed him. Based on his size and what he could eat I believe his DOB to be 3/22/15. Emilio has had no interactions with dogs, so I’m unsure of what his reaction would be. I’m living in a new home now and can no longer keep him. He has a genetic “deformity” it doesn’t hurt him, but his tail curls. It’s adorable 🥰 plus he gets excited and his tail shakes ☺️Please, I don’t want to put him in a shelter. I want to send him with someone who will love him as much as I do. 🥺❤️😭
