Story
Meet handsome Wilmer! He's a striking tabby with a full, round face and gorgeous green eyes. Wilmer has a remarkable story and we consider him extremely lucky. Wilmer showed up on a volunteer's deck in early January. He was friendly and looking for food. Realizing Wilmer was not like the unsociable farm cats in the neighborhood, he was taken inside. Shortly after Wilmer's rescue, his foster parents removed two steel BBs lodged barely under his skin. Upon closer examination, more BBs were discovered and he was seen by our vets. X-rays revealed Wilmer had been shot 5 times and while one BB was easily removed under surgery, the others are located in deep muscle tissue making them risky to remove. While Wilmer is extremely outgoing, friendly and playful, he carries the trauma of being mistreated. Because of this, he needs an experienced family or person. Wilmer is exceptionally curious and wants to investigate anything new. He is extremely playful and loves any interactive toy, but can entertain himself for hours. Wilmer loves chin rubs and doesn't mind being picked up. Wilmer does not get along well with the other cats in his foster home and given his background, we are recommending he be the only cat in a home. We think he might be tolerant of an easy going dog, but he has a tendency to be aggressive towards other cats. We also don't recommend him for a family with young children or a couple intending to include him in a future family. Wilmer is a special dude, but he is going to be a work in progress because he was injured by people early in his life. Wilmer is about 1 year old, neutered, up to date with yearly vaccinations and negative for Feline Leukemia and FIV. For more information about Wilmer, please email Lori at apcatrescue@gmail.com

Story
We took Lorna into our home in March and quickly found out she was pregnant. Since then, we have raised and rehomed her litter of 7. with the intent of keeping her. Unfortunately, whether it be the maternal instincts from the birth or trauma of being stuck in a room caring for kittens and quarantining after being spayed, she has been unable to integrate with our cats into the home.

Story
Evie will be shy at first but once she trusts you she will be your best friend and snuggle you any chance she gets. I would prefer her to be an only pet where she can thrive. She currently has other cats at home that she does not get along with anymore. She is 4 years old and is chipped and spayed. She really is a sweetheart and it breaks my heart but she is no longer happy here. I just want her to have a loving home where she can be happy.

She is good with adults. She doesn't do well with young kids. Gabby is 5 months old. We got from a feral mom my sister adopted. We are looking for someone who loves gabby. She is very sweet, but don't try to trim her nails. She is a sweet kitty. We want to help find someone that will love her and take care of her. She loves to be pet but doesn't like to be carried or held. She is curious about everyone and everything. She likes her space and likes to cuddle and sleep with you. She is loyal and will follow you everywhere.
