Story
Snow was born on February 14th, 2023, which makes it pretty cool that he has a heart shape on his lower back. He's a nice cat, very very food oriented and very smart. I just have an autistic son who doesn't understand boundaries and Snow really enjoys his boundaries. He's somewhat independent and tends to want attention more on his terms. He's a good cat overall, but unfortunately I can't deal with him and my son sort of coming to blows.

Story
Racoon was found with her brothers and sisters at about 1 or 2 weeks old 2 days after their mother got hit by a car. My daughter and I have bottle feed and taken care of these 6 babies since they were found. We love them but we need to try and find them all homes. I cannot keep all of them. I am currently feeding 10 kittens total and 4 grown cats.

Story
Mithra is a neutered orange tabby that's approximately 2 years old. I've had him since he was ~3 months from the my local county shelter. He needs a family that's energetic and can keep up with his high energy levels (although he's also really chill when he chooses to be). We have 8 other cats in the house but none of them are as active and into engaging in play fights as much as Mithra is. As he grew older, we thought he mellowed out but we fostered a family of kittens and their mom earlier last year and his play energy was occupied by them. He played with them and the mom very often and she kept him in check as she was very fiesty. However, once they were all adopted and left (~half a year later), there was no one to keep up with his energy to play anymore. Since then, he has been having behavioral issues with the other cats in the house and it has come to the point of considering rehoming him. *If adopted, a bag of litter and food (dry and wet) will be provided to help adjust.

Story
Cashew has always been the sweetest baby girl. She is still a bit timid but has grown so much since I took her in as a kitten. She grew up with another cat and has lived with dogs as well. While she does love to spend most of her time lounging, she will occasionally mess up a toy on a stick. She loooooves springs as well.

Story
Vash is a sweet, shy girl that loves to explore, chase beams of light, play with her 'mousey', help you play video games, watch TV (especially YouTube), and snuggle before bed. She is a beautiful, silver toned, mostly grey American Shorthair that was born with a smile on her face. She was born in the backyard on the 4th of July and we couldn't help but fall in love with her. She has lived in a multi-cat home her whole life and warms up slowly but easily to new cats and humans. We are moving and unable to bring her with us so she needs a loving home with someone who will be patient and kind to this sweet soul. Primary Color: Grey Weight: 9lbs Age: 2yrs 3mths
