Story
Please help rehome a wonderful cat named Lady. She is approximately 10 years old. Lady is a bit chubby, and in great condition other than a little arthritis which is controlled by Cosequin for cats. Lady has a sweet disposition and is a chill cat. She is UTD on her shots with the most recent being in January 2025. We need to rehome Lady since my wife is severely allergic to cats, and we will be moving out of TN into an apartment soon. Lady currently lives in my workshop building. We found Lady 7 years ago when she was having kittens on our front porch. She was skin and bones, starving. Lady enjoys being brushed, playing and petting. She is very friendly to people she does not know. She is dominant toward other cats, but does not fight with other cats. She would do well with an adult who enjoys pampering their cat. Lady is a sweet cat who just requires love and attention. She is spayed, litter box trained, and primarily an indoor cat.

Story
I got Lucki through a coworker but I already have a male cat so when she goes into heat I have to be on ten toes which is stressful because I’m working full time at my job it may take like a week for her to get accommodated to other pets but once she is she’s a sweetheart

Story
Letty is about 6 years old. I acquired her 4 years ago from a mutual friend who was moving. She was an indoor/outdoor cat before I got her. She’s extremely smart and I would love for her to find a home with people, kids, animals etc to keep her entertained. I work 6 days a week right now so I don’t feel like I can give her the love she deserves. She’s extremely empathetic and funny.

Story
Moosh is 3-4 years old. He was found on the side of the street when he was younger. He is an extremely affectionate cat, and can sometimes be quite demanding about it. He loves people and interacting with new people. There is need for time to get to used to new people, he loves everybody. From what we have experienced, he is very passive and has no problem with other cats, however he has never been with a dog. He’s hilarious, adorable, affectionate, and sometimes a little aloof.

Story
Sophie is 2 1/2 years old. Sophie is a talker who loves to voice her opinion to her humans, and she loves snacks! It is not unlike her to politely jump up on the arm of your chair and curiously watch you eat, if you have something yummy. She also enjoys watching TV with her humans either while on the cat tree or on a comfy lap. Sophie is quite comical with her expressions and mannerisms. Don't be surprised if she makes you laugh! She is insanely cute! Another of her favorite things to do it to play tag with her kitty playmates, while wrestling or smacking each other on the head. Sophie's favorite thing to do is to curl up on a cozy lap, a comfy chair or on her cat tree and bask in the sunshine. Sophie would love to be adopted with her sister Sasha is possible, but would also consider going home by herself with someone who would love to spoil her.
