Story
Fern was found in Carlisle PA by a ballet boarding house. She won the hearts of the young ballerinas and was taken in by the parents of one of the dancers. She has had surgery to remove her tail, which had exposed bones and no muscle control. She is incredibly sweet and social. She is in a house with 2 dogs, but no cats. She is probably 5-6 months old and is not consistent about her litter box use. We are searching to rehome her to people who love and can care for cats. She was taken in out of goodwill and the need to do the right thing, but now she needs to find a home that will better fit her needs. Please consider taking Fern into you home 💜

Story
Ninny was bread on our farm, with two of the most amazing cats we’ve owned. She’s has an amazing personality with lots of love. She is my best friend but unfortunately my schedule and life has taken a turn where I cannot care for her the way she deserves. She still receives lots of love from my family, but is missing one on one attention. My hope is That someone may share the love I’ve received from her. I will only allow her to get rehomed to a single animal family, I do not want her to go to a home with lots of other animals. She can learn to get along with them, but is not good with other cats or dogs. She is the queen of the house! I have plans to spay her in August if needed. Thank you for understanding and considering this lovely little girl <3.

Story
< My little buddy was a street cat. He was a little destructive at first but he does well now with a scratch board. He is the most lovable cat ever. I call him a dog because he acts like one. Hes super smart and sweet. You'll ove him to death. He loves to lay with you anytimr you sit. Mainly on your chest and lap. However, now hes having issues with his teeth and hes in pain . However, I am also very ill and missing alot of work and can no longer take care of him or his brother. This is super hard . But someone will get a awesome cat if he can get his teeth fixed. Theyre bothering him alot. Either way i can no longer keep him here . Take a look at slick or meet him in person. You'll fall in love like everyone does.

DAWN IS IN HER FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO PA ONCE SHE IS ADOPTED!

She is super friendly and snuggy and gets along with both dogs and other cats. She would make a great family kitty. She loves her people and loves to have a conversation with you.   She loves to be your lap puddle and would be perfect to keep you company. She has been spay/neutered, had all age appropriate vaccines, microchip, and a confirmed NEGATIVE FIV/FeLV test. Her adoption fee of $295 includes the transport to PA.  We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring her up north to her adopted family.

Story
CLIFFHANGER IS IN HER FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO PA ONCE SHE IS ADOPTED! This is Cliffhanger, a lovely tabby/white small female kitty who was born around 6/28/2023.  She is very affectionate and playful. She loves NAPS.  If you cannot find her, she is likely snuggled up taking a nap.  The perfect work-from-home companion kitty.  She loves to play and loves all cat toys and is definitely loads of fun. She loves to find an open drawer to snuggle in and she is very inquisitive. She could probably be a single kitty, but would also do well with a friendly low-key kitty.  She has never been around dogs and is not recommended for a dog home. She is neutered, has had all age appropriate vaccines, microchip, and a confirmed NEGATIVE FIV/FeLV test.  The adoption fee of $295 also includes the transport to PA.  We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring her up north once she is adopted.
