Story
One day, a street cat followed my friends home. They offered him some food, but they can't keep him for long since one of their roommates is allergic to cat hair. He was so cute, shy and small(about half a year). I can't let him just wander in the street. So I took him to the hospital to get a vaccine. The doctors found his owner by scanning the microchip on his back. They tried calling his owner several times but no one answered. Also, his home was really far from where my friends picked him, which means he had traveled a long way. Apparently, he was either abandoned by his previous owner or escaped from his previous home. So, I decided to give him a new home. We accompanied each other for 3 years (he's 3.5-year-old now). He's well-trained and easy to take care of. Just remember to fill up the food and clean water each day and scoop every two days. Also, he likes being patted. I wish he could be adopted by someone that's patient and that could give him a clean a safe home.

Story
Mittens and Keanu are sisters, they were in a same cage in a shelter when I adopted them. They’re close to each other so either of them cries when I separate them from each other, so I am looking for someone who can take both of them together. They’re both friendly and like to cuddle a lot and like to play with toys or anything that moves. They like getting a lot of attentions. Mittens is always curious and likes to explore new places. Keanu is shy, so she will needs some time for her to get comfortable to new a place or people. Mittens has Felv+ but she is fine and full of energy.

Story
Tux is a 5 year old spunky kitty. She didn't start her life out the way she wanted as she was found near a dumpster all by herself as a kitten. She loves to run through the house for no reason, chase her toys, and play with the laser beam. The only time she has ever been outdoors was either on accident when the door was left open and came right back inside or when traveling to the vet. She will do best in a home where there are no small children and no other pets where she can get all the love and attention she needs. ANY AND ALL FEES WILL BE PAID FOR BY CURRENT OWNERS.

This cat is a lovable girl. She loves To cuddle at night and love to be around people. Very friendly. She doesn’t have teeth, her previous owners only feed her soft foods. She needs a good home due to relocation.

Story
I adopted Eleanor when she was 10, 4 years ago and she’s been a great cat, just shy and scared of loud noises. She sleeps a lot, like any cat, but she’ll play too, shown in the video! She loves her cat tree and sleeping on the bed at night. Our dog has taken over the house though and she’s not been able to adjust in the year that we’ve had him :( she’s litter box trained and doesn’t knock things over like some cats do, she even leaves all the plants alone! She needs a quiet home, without other pets or small kids.

Story
We found Zelda crouched under a truck at a rural gas station in Georgia. The attendant told us the kitten had been living off scraps for a week or two - so like any insane cat people, we bought some cans of tuna, managed to snag her, and took her with us. She purred the whole way home. She has been with our family for years, made the move with us from Georgia to Arizona, snuggled our baby, and moved with us into our first home. We ADORE this cat (our zellie-bean/the “purrminator”), but it's been clear for some time she has been unhappy (in conflict with our other cats). We have tried absolutely everything, but at this point we feel, for her sake, she would be happiest in a single-cat home. She can be a little skittish at first approach, but is a total lap cat and snuggle monster. She's playful, gentle, patient with our toddler, and doesn't mind our dog. We will miss her terribly. She is really just the sweetest kitty, she deserves the absolute best, and we just want her to be happy.
