Story
Incredibly affectionate 4 year old rescued Male in need of a loving home. We rescued this charming boy from a life of misery, he has been neutered, Rabies, and 1st round of Feline HCP. He loves to put his "arms" around our shoulders and nestle his head under our necks. So perfect for someone who is in need of a devoted, docile companion. He is liter box trained and nails have been cut. All this sweet baby wants to do is sit on someone's lap and snuggle. We require a $30.00 rehoming fee, this allows us to rescue more cats and get them spayed/neutered and rehoused. We will provide the first week of food to get you started and transition to the food you wish to have him on. We are located in Shelby, NC. We already have two rescued dogs and two rescued cats, if we didn't we would keep this sweet baby.

Story
Squeaks is a beautiful orange tabby male who was born around Jan 2023. He was found with a wound on his tummy which required surgery and brought into a foster home. Squeaks was born outdoors and is shy with new folks. He lives with his foster mom and dad and their two cats. He is devoted to his foster parents. Squeaks follows them around and is a real lap cat. He is playful and loving. He loves to play with the other two cats in the household. He likes toys and would do well with any family who puts in time to gain his trust. Orange cats are thought to be friendlier and more affectionate than other cats. They tend to be snuggly. Some orange tabbies are so affectionate that they are often cat-egorized as “velcro” kitties. **Adoption fee of $140 includes spay/neuter, vet visits, deworming, and shots. ** Adoption Application: mercyrescue.org

Story
A Shy, Sweet Boy Looking for His Forever Home! Coley is a gentle and affectionate boy who may take a little time to warm up, but once he feels safe, he’ll reward you with soothing purrs and sweet companionship. He’s great with other cats and would thrive in a multi-pet home where he can take things at his own pace. Coley enjoys gentle pets and, when he’s comfortable, he’ll purr contentedly beside you and when getting leg love. He’s a quieter soul, preferring cozy spaces and calm moments, but with patience and time, he’ll become your loyal and loving friend. If you’re looking for a calm, tender-hearted companion who just needs a little time to trust, Coley could be the perfect match for you! Coley’s Ideal Home is a patient household where he can adjust at his own pace. (If you’re looking for two cats Coley and Theodore are besties.)
