Story
Had her since she was born (took in a pregnant stray) and adopted her out. Her adopter ended up in an unsafe environment and could no longer take care of her so I offered to take her back. She does not get along with any of my other animals so I thought it best to adopt her back out to a home where she can be the only other animal. She was born March 7, 2023 so she will be two years old this coming March. She was super hissy when she first arrived back to me, but after she got used to her environment she was very clingy and loving, wanting to sleep on my chest and around my neck practically every night. When we began introducing her to my other two cats it became clear she preferred the only child life. It didn’t help that my younger cat is an asshole, he hasn’t liked her since they first met face to face. I think she’ll just be better in an environment where she is the only cat/dog in the household. Her previous adopter named her Ginger, though she responds to both Ginger and Cassie.

Story
Bill is from a local shelter, he is about 6 months old and is looking for a loving home. He loves people and has done very well with our small breed dog (they often play together and he has never scratched or bitten her). He is the sweetest cat I’ve ever met and just wants to cuddle. He will hop up in your lap to take a nap but is also very playful. You can pick up and hold him in any way you like and he will not scratch or bite. Very tolerant, very sweet kitty who just needs someone who will love him and give him a good place to play and enjoy life.

Story
Looking for a Loving Home for My Sweet Cat (fixed) It breaks my heart to write this, but I’m looking for a new forever home for my cherished cat due to a change in my living situation that’s no longer suitable for him. He has been an incredible companion and is absolutely adored by his mom — this decision comes with so much love and care for his well-being. He’s a playful, affectionate boy who finds joy in the little things — like batting around toys, chasing laser pointers, and curling up in an empty cardboard box (his absolute favorite!). He lives for cat treats and will quickly show off his playful side when he knows a reward is coming. Though he may be a little shy at first, once he warms up to you, he’s the ultimate cuddle buddy. He loves to sleep between my legs at night and always wants to be close. He’s incredibly gentle and gets along beautifully with dogs, other cats, and children. He’s house trained and very clean, but also enjoys time outside in a safe, fenced-in area.

Story
We have several cats needing outside homes where they can roam, cat catch mice, and be an outside pet. Most are friendly and will come up for food and can be pet. We trap and remove them from parking lots where they are trying to survive, but need a place to call home and feed daily.October 28, 2024, 10:47 am
