Story
Jack was my wife's cat whom we have had for about 8 years (which is why he is noted as fostered because i feel like I am fostering him until I can find a good home). My wife passed away in August and I am not really a cat person, but I also don't want to take him to a shelter to be put to sleep. He is very loving and cuddly and loves attention and also needs it. I also have a dog and Jack is fine with her. He won't play with her, but they don't fight. He loves people food, but will eat his own food when he gets none of mine. He's really quite a nice cat. His behavior issues stem from me not giving him enough attention. He’ll swat things off of counters and walk stealthily under me to get my attention. If I give him attention he’s fine. If you love cat love, then Jack is the one for you.

Story
Guppy is about 3 years old, she’s very small for her age. I took her in and we found out she was pregnant we kept both her and her kitten, about a year later she started getting scared of my cats and her own she runs away from them and hides all day, We’ve tried hard and long to hope things change and turn around but unfortunately they have not. She isn’t afraid of some of my cats but others she’s skiddish when they run after her, We believe it’s best that we can find her a home that can accommodate her more and make her open up and live her best life, before this she loved the sun and would lay in the sun rays and she likes to cuddle and sleep with you. She’s such a sweet girl she deserves way more.

Pancake and Sylvester are the cutest bonded pair of cousins who cannot be separated. They are both neutered and about 8 years old. Pancake is a grey and white Polydactyl cat (he has thumbs). Sylvester is a brown and white tabby. Their favorite activities are cuddling with each other and eating. Rehoming to afford my ongoing medical bills.

Story
Lucky was abandoned by his previous owner and was left outside to starve. He is extremely loving and enjoys pets and getting attention. He is neutered, up to date on his vaccines, and has been treated for fleas/ticks. I can only house him through March, so I am desperately searching for a good home for him.

Story
Say hello to Oskar, a sweet little boy who'a ready to join your family! Oskar is a very shy cat, and is also blind in his one eye as a result of an infection he had as a kitten. He needs a little extra grace, and maybe a friend to keep him company! He was found as part of a roaming cat colony in our neighborhood, and we quickly took them in once we managed to coax them out of hiding. They've been through a lot this year; between losing some of their littermates before we took them in and lots of moving around, they're looking to settle down with a warm, happy, and loving family. As experienced cat owners, we will send Oskar home with you alongside a guide to keeping your new kittens happy and healthy! If you're interested, we do have a handful of other kittens to adopt out as well!
