Story
Nico is a 3 y/o boy who needs to be indoors/outdoors. He’s very intelligent with lots of personality and love to offer. He would be perfect for someone who could let him spend a lot of time outside during the day and give him lots of love when he comes back in from his adventures. He does best in a low stress household, as he tends to take on the stress of those living with him, resulting in urinary problems. Being outside helps keep his stress low. He’s a people cat, very cuddly several times a day, and passionate about snack time. He’s lived with both dogs and cats, and loves cuddling with them whenever he could. He’s a wonderful cat, and I wish we could keep him, but circumstances have made us realize he would be happier and healthier with resources we aren’t able to provide right now. It’s very important to us that he finds a good home, so please message me if you’re able to care for such a special, lovable kitty. The adoption fee will be donated to Brother Wolf, a no kill shelter.

Story
Bonded sisters. Must be adopted together. They were part of a 5 kitten litter. My ex’s cat birthed them and I was left to find them homes. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with them in addition to my own pets. Fran (gray) and Toro (yellow collar) were born March 1, 2024 and are very playful and inquisitive. They love to play with toys and give snuggles and sleep next to you at night. If you’re looking for a loving little companion then these are your girls!

Story
Prince is around 15 years old, he has come from a family member that is no longer able to care for him. Prince has some issues including anxiety and ocd, skin issues, and episodes of panic. We are unable to care for him, we do not have the time or money he needs to be happy and healthy. He’s the sweetest boy ever and I hope that someone else can give him the chance we can’t.

Story
Iga is grey/white dilute tabby cat. She came to live in my home because her owner did not want her anymore because of a broken rear leg. The previous owner did not want to get her through the recovery of healing a fractured leg. After surrendering the cat to our family her previous owner adopted 2 new kittens. She has been living with us for 8 weeks, I have paid all her medical expenses and her leg is healed now. She is a sweet girl but does not get along with the other cats in our home. She would have a much happier life in an only cat household. She gets along with our dog fine. All of her vaccines are up to date until the end of March 2025 and is up to date on flea/tick/heartworm prevention until September 3. I am looking for a new home that she would be happier in for her. She loves to play and loves people.

Story
Pet’s name is Loki, he’s 2years old. Rehoming because of current living situation. Landlord does not want any pets, tried to take him to family and friends and they either don’t have the space or they have other cats or dogs. Loki’s terriorial, he’s never been outside. He’s great as a one person companion. He’s had to go through a lot just recently. He accidentally got out of the house on August 9th, someone found him and gave him to Humane on August 12th. I then reclaimed him on August 14th and have brought him back to the house with me only to be told by the landlord that they never really wanted pets. I would like him to be with someone patient who understands that he’s going through a difficult time. He deserves a better life and I love him so much ❤️
