Story
I found Kitty Boy outside in the cold, very skinny and limping slowly through the road. I scooped him up and brought him inside and he was so grateful, purring and cozying up on the blanket I had folded and placed by him. He has put a healthy weight on in no time and become such a playful, chatty, and affectionate boy! He is outspoken and will play with anything, even the bunny poops that end up outside my rabbits' litter box! He loves to roll around in catnip and gets the zoomies. I am heartbroken to have to rehome him, but his energy stresses my other cat out, and I fear he is becoming unhappy and withdrawn - I think he prefers to be an only cat. At the consideration of my Beau who was here first, I have come to the decision I must find a home where Kitty Boy will be able to play and possibly have other siblings who will be more willing to play and chase him around like he wants to be chased! I'm hopeful someone out there will fall in love with his sweet, exuberant nature.

Story
This cat is between 2 and 3 years old. She’s very sweet and playful. She was abandoned by her former owners. She was loved by a young kid, but unfortunately that child has moved into a household with cat severe allergies and the cat cannot come too. The adults involved are unreachable and the lease on the cat’s house is up at the end of October.

Story
Miggle is a super sweet lover boy who wants to cuddle and be where ever you are. He is great with kids, good with female cats (not male cats), and okay with dogs. He will mind his own space but ready to protect himself if a dog gets to be too much. Miggle does not spray and only uses the litter box like a good boy. Migge even taught me how to play fetch so he will be provided with a big bag of his favorite nerf balls. The reason we sadly have to part with him is because he is territorial against our other male cat and I thought time would fix it. After over 3 years, it has not gotten any better and it isn’t fair to either of my male cats. Miggle isn’t happy with the other male cat in the house- he hasn’t played since we got the other male cat. Miggle does have an auto immune disease that attacks his paw pads and gums, he has been on steroids for the past month working through a bad flare. These flares only happen during the winter! I will give the remaining medication

Story
Adopted off of the side of the road, he should be around a year and some months old. Hes a sweet cat very affectionate, rarely ever attacks or bites. Definitely a cat that would come up and cuddle with you and needs attention. Only issue we’ve had with him is peeing outside of the litter box (on furniture, the floor, etc) he was taken to the vet prior for this issue so its not serious, we believe its due to being stressed. All in all an amazing cat with his own distinct personality. We believe that he may be lonely and bored, however we are unable to satisfy that because our family works too much. Hoping he goes to a home with lots of enrichment for him. He goes crazy for the laser toy (which we can give to you if adopted)

Story
Peggy is a super affectionate and loving. 4years ago I was living in Florida and a friend working in the animal rescue field came across Peggy and was fostering her. I met Peggy and while I wasn't in the market for a new animal I couldn't resist her charms. Peggy is missing is foot but she doesn't let that slow her down. She is a little squat and has a little limp but her nub doesn't cause her pain and she's happy to let people touch it. She she very playful. She takes a little time to warm up to other animals but has never been aggressive to other animals she's lived with. My other cat passed away in recent months and now Peggy is incredibly lonely. I don't have the time to dedicate that she deserves and I want to find her a new home where she can be appreciated. She's currently a little chunky (I feel bad about her leaving our home so I'm spoiling her)

This little cutie is a new litter and is housebroken and drinking and eating food on its own. A great addition to start a little toddler with to become a buddy. We found a stray in our garage and brought the mother in to have her kittens. We could not leave them out in the winter. They are ready to adopt. We hope Wolfgang will become a part of a loving family's home. Wolfgang is about 4 weeks old.
