Story
Meet Roland, a shy and timid young male cat with a gentle heart. Roland was surrendered to the shelter after his owner could no longer afford to care for him, and though he’s been through a lot, he’s remained sweet and calm. He’s done well with other cats in the past, but he’s a little reserved and takes his time warming up to new people and environments. Roland tends to be on the more cautious side, preferring quiet spaces where he can feel safe and observe the world around him. With patience and a gentle touch, Roland will slowly open up and show his affectionate side. He’s looking for a calm, understanding home where he can settle in and feel secure.

Story
Dee Dee and her brother Dexter were found in lorimor Iowa with no momma as she got sick and passed, so without proper nutrition at a very young age she is very small for her age as of right now. She loves people once you’ve gotten her heart, she’ll lick you and give you kisses all day long, and may nibble your ear. She is INCREDIBLY smart and very good driven.

Unforunately, due to some financial strains. I am having to move. With this being said, the person I will be living with is extremely allergic to cats and has had medical complications in the past due to this allergy. Q and Cass are beautiful kitties that love kids, gets along with all types of dogs, and are fun playful bunch! I really need to find a new home for them as I have had no luck with friends and family!

Story
Cheeto is a very friendly neutered orange boy in need of a new home. It breaks my heart to have to find him a new home but my mother died recently and I am a student in Washington DC. He is a little bit shy at first but opens up very quickly and is one of the most loving kitties you will ever meet. Nothing delights him more than cuddling up on you after a long day. He will wiggle into your arms and purr louder than you have ever heard and make little chirps like he thinks he is a kitty-bird hybrid:) He is very chatty. He will talk to you about any and everything he can, he will meow, chirp and trill to tell you he loves you, ask for attention, ask about your day, and of course ask you for food. In addition to cuddling, he loves to be held and cradled like a baby and makes all sorts of happy noises when he is picked up:) He has been a patient at Ashworth in WDM and Mojovet in Waukee, both vets know him and will keep seeing him. Also, he's a lifelong INDOOR kitty, do not let him outside.
