Story
Libra is a sweet, playful baby that loves a good corner of the couch. Kidding, as long as you have some cardboard scratchers, she'll enjoy those instead. She weighs about 7 pounds, and is okay with being picked up. She's used crystal, and clay litter with no issues. She cuddles at her discretion, but doesn't mind a good hand to chew on from time to time. She gets a long great with everyone, but can play a little too rough at times. Unfortunately, I'll be moving back in with some family members of mine and they have a dog that is very aggressive with cats. I really hope that Libra will go to a loving family, who will treat her like a baby of their own. :(

Story
Meet Penny! She’s a cat between the ages of 9 and 11 years old, but we’re unsure of her exact age. Despite that, though, she doesn’t act like a senior at all! She is seriously the sweetest cat I’ve ever owned. She’s very vocal, will greet you at the door, LOVES to be petted and loves sitting on your lap! If you ever wanted dog traits but in a cat, Penny is your girl! The only reason why we need to re-home her is because we simply cannot keep up with her medical needs. She doesn’t have any major medical concerns of right now, but she is constantly peeing outside of her litter box, even after it’s been changed. And in order to get to the bottom of why, we know that we need to take her to the vet more often than we’re able to. So, if you are willing to take that on, then I promise Penny will be more than worth it. We love her so much and we wish we could keep up with her vet visits!

Story
Andy is a 12 year old sweetheart in need of a new home. I adopted him in January of 2019 at 6.5 years old. He has been a huge cuddley love bug and a great companion. He needs a new home because I had a baby and he has not taken well to our new lifestyle. He does not hurt the baby, rather he has developed behavioral issues such as going to the bathroom in the kitchen and living room because he is upset about the baby. Andy needs a lot of attention that I cannot provide anymore. He loves to be on your lap all day and unfortunately it’s just not possible with a baby. He has no previous behavioral issues, so I’m certain he would do fine in a new home with an owner who has plenty of time to love on him. He is a huge sweetheart and has never hissed at me or bit me. He’s a great guy who just wants to be an only animal and get all of your love and attention to himself. He would be a great companion in the right situation. A household without other pets or children would be great for him.
