Story

Triss is a little over 1 year old. We got her at 3 months old last year. She is a very sweet cat however we cannot handle her destructive nature anymore. It may be stressed based and while we have done everything to deter her or redirect or prevent her behavior it continues. We think she’d be better off in a home where she is single cat and can have attention all to herself. She has recently started to get aggressive while playing with the other cat we have (got them around the same time) but will still cuddle and groom her. If there is another cat in the home, it should be fine if they are low energy. She’s a sweet cat, we are just running out of ways to keep our stuff and sanity intact.

Story

This sweet and gentle cat found his way to us all by himself. He showed up one day and started living on our deck, always calm and friendly whenever we came outside. After about a month—and when the weather started getting cold—we took him to the vet for his vaccines and brought him into our home. He’s estimated to be at least five years old. He is neutered, fully litter-trained, and up to date on all his shots. He’s very affectionate with people and loves attention. He’s quiet and never aggressive, but he is timid around other cats. Sadly, our other cats haven’t accepted him, so he spends most of his time hiding to avoid them. He deserves a calm, loving home where he can relax, feel safe, and get plenty of attention. He would do best as an only cat or with gentle pets who won’t bully him. If you’re looking for a sweet, friendly companion, he would love to be part of your family.

Good with cats,

Story

We are delighted to introduce you to Jenna, this sweet, beautiful tortie-point siamese lady looking for her forever home! Jenna was rescued from an area the rescue has been helping for the past year. One thing that rings true for all the cats we have rescued in this area is that they have had a rough start in life but have come out of it so loving and affectionate. They all are sweet babies and Jenna is no different! Jenna came into the rescues care pregnant and we have given her and her babies a safe and loving place to relax and be until their forever families come along. Jenna gave birth to 4 beautiful babies: Tegan, Tilly, Tory, and Tess. She has done a wonderful job being their mom, but she is ready for the empty nester life and retirement! Jenna is still a young lady, approximately a little over a year, maybe close to 2 years old. Her life started out living outside and seldomly cared for. Now, she thrives in her foster home where she is cared for and loved endlessly! This is the kind of life she deserves and we all are excited to meet her future forever family! As far as Jenna's personality goes, she is a little shy at first introductions (understandable) but she blossoms into a very loving and affectionate lady. She does not like being picked up and placed anywhere, she would prefer to take herself wherever she needs to go. Aside from that, she adores being loved on and LOVES being brushed. No joke, she is crazy about it! Jenna will be eligible for adoption June 26th and after. She is up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, negative for FeLV FIV and heartworms, microchipped and will be spayed (here soon, prior to adoption). Jenna is currently fostered in a home with other kitties and does great. She has not been introduced to dogs currently.

Story

Meet Maximus, a ~2 month old domestic shorthair tabby male kitten. He’s a handsome little tabby with boundless energy and a big heart. Maximus is a playful guy who loves toys — especially automatic ones that keep him on his toes. After a good play session, he’s quick to cuddle up with his sister Lucilla for a cozy nap. Maximus enjoys hanging out with his big kid foster sisters and never says no to a chin scratch or gentle pets. He’s not a full-on lap cat (yet!), but he’s very sweet and comfortable with human attention. Wet food and lick treats are an easy way to win him over. Maximus is neutered, microchipped, and has his rabies and FVRCP vaccines. Required to go to a home where another cat is present, ideally a cat under 2 (or one who loves to play), as he thrives on feline companionship and enrichment. Adoption Fee: $200 Pair Adoption: $325 Go home date & time coordinated with adopter.
