I adopted Lady two years ago from her previous owner who had her since birth. I’ve recently had a baby and I don’t feel like Lady is getting enough attention from me anymore. She is sweet and cuddly and really loves the attention. Lady is almost 5 years old. She is about 8 pounds.

Story
Mango is a 4-year-old orange tabby. His eyes light up at the mere mention of treats, and he’s incredibly food motivated. With boundless patience and affection, Mango will surely melt your heart. His energy is contagious, and he expresses his love through lots of purring and affectionate licks. Mango can be a bit of a tough nut to crack when it comes to strangers and new environments. At first, he might seem a tad aggressive, but fear not! Give him time to adjust, and he’ll reveal his softer side. Just like any discerning feline, Mango prefers head and neck rubs (his body and legs are super sensitive). Mango gets easily overstimulated by too many pets or rubs. When that happens, he might playfully nibble—so watch those fingers! Carrying him around? Not his thing. But once he’s comfortable with you, he’ll seek out those cozy moments. A household without young children or other cats would suit him best.

Story
One evening in January, this year, this guy showed up on our back porch frantic to get in. He immediately came to scarf the food we put down and let me pet him while he was eating. He is full of energy, affection, Loves skritches, and catnip. But we have be entirely unsuccessful introducing him to our small senior female whose health is no suffering. During this time we have checked with neighbors to find his first family, no chip (then) checked him for feline Leukemia (negative), got him his rabies shot, treated his injured leg, and had him spayed. We think his first family had experience with dogs as he seems to be crate trained and he won't get on furniture, although he loves our cat tree and window ledges. He also loves to sleep in the middle of our bed during the day and by our feet/legs at night. He deserves a family that will love and cherish him.
