Story
I rescued her from a homeless man I used to work with who was living out of his van, but now I’m moving out and have little to no time to keep her entertained. She is roughly a year old. She’s very curious once she gets comfortable and secure. She is very playful and purrs a lot she loves cuddling. Really loves the little toy mouses and loves the feathers on a string. She is a tortoiseshell American shorthair

Story
Looking for a foster or forever home for our sweet little Oscar. He is a very playful and loving 11-week old, and has the funniest personality. He is litter box trained, and eats mostly hard food (though he is spoiled with soft food once a day.) I rescued Oscar's mother and his auntie. Shortly after, his mom birthed a litter of 6; and a month later, auntie had a litter of 4. While I've been successful in rehoming 4/6 of Oscar's siblings, Oscar and his brother Oliver are still looking for homes. Our family loves kitties; however, my home is full enough, and we are desperate to find good homes for the babies. I would prefer if Oscar and Oliver are rehomed together if at all possible, as they've been side-by-side since birth.

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
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

Story
Wednesday is a sweet girl that loves to play with toys, lie in the sun, watch the neighborhood through the window, and deserves all of the pets. She is a beautiful, black American Shorthair that was born to be loved. She has lived in a multi-cat home her whole life and warms up slowly to new cats and humans. Once she warms up to you, you will be her best friend. 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 her.

Story
Smoky is an 8 year old precious and friendly 3-legged cat. She loves to be close by for snuggles and pets. She loves to be brushed, rubbed around her neck, and under her jaw. Her 3 legs don’t slow her down and she’s great with stairs, hoping on and off beds, etc. Smoky likes to be close by but she also likes a little alone time here and there. She used to have another cat friend in the home and she had no issues! She does well around babies and toddlers, but mostly keeps to herself or hangs out in another room when youngsters are around. She’s shy at first, but once you get to know her, she loves a good chat and to keep you company! Seeking a new home due to our toddler developing a cat allergy, which was managed for some time but now we have a newborn and are unable to continue managing allergens in the home.
