Story
Hello! This is Ginger! If you're an old Hollywood fan, you'll know she's named after Ginger Rogers for her contagious personality, kindness, and love of playing and spinning around the floor. She can be reserved and timid initially, but once you show her how loved she is, she'll melt in your arms. She's one of three from her adopted mother. Unfortunately, I lost my job and can no longer provide for her the way she deserves. She's less than a year old. Shots are up to date as of 2/20/25! I just want to give her a kind and loving home. She deserves it.

Hiya! This is Tux, also known as Tuxedo. Honestly, he is the most caring, cuddly cat in the world. That's all he wants to do. Just sit in your lap, expressing his thanks with a gentle love bite. Tux is about 6 months old. I just want this little guy to go to a loving, caring, playful home!

Story
This neutered male kitty was found on February the 17, 2025 at the Rowlett Recreation Center. He is chatty, energetic, playful and sweet. However, he does not get along with our two older female cats (sisters) so I would recommend a one cat home. I really don’t know much about him other than he is chipped by a rescue organization but I was not given the name of the organization nor the chip number by vet. We are no longer able to keep him in our home and have been advised by Animal Control and Veterinarian to release him where we found him but I would rather have him place in a loving home.

Story
A family in my neighborhood bought 2 year old Obie for her daughter, and when the daughter went to college they put him outside. He is an indoor cat, who showed up in my part of the neighborhood. Many neighbors have fed him. I contacted the daughter on NextDoor app and reunited them. A couple of days later he was back as the girl left Dalls to get married. The mother gave me written permission to keep the cat for rehoming and vet care. He is very healthy. He goes in and out of a crate to be carred around my house safely from my other cats to keep him warm this winter. He has lived in the garage and house. He gets bored and likes to talk, so he would go outside for about 4 hours. He sleeps in the bed with me but isn't a snuggler most of the time while sleeping. He likes to hang out while I do yard work or work in the garage. He follows me around the house and has some seperation anxiety at times. He loves water in a bowl, kibble, moist can cat food, and treats. I can carry him around.

Rhiannon is a sweet four year old cat. She loves to sleep between my legs, and enjoys petting - until she doesn’t. Due to my job, she and her brother are not getting the love and attention they deserve. I hate losing her, but I want better for her.

Story
Remus is the sweetest, most loving cat. He wants all the attention. Unfortunately, he’s not getting the love and attention he deserves from me. I am working far too much. He’s almost 4, and he really is an amazing cat. I hate to see him go, but he needs more than he’s getting from me.
