Story
I got Axel and Sullivan in Des Moines in August 2019. They are a little over 2 years old and thought to be brothers from the same litter. They are very playful with each other and enjoy cuddles once they've tired themselves out. They haven't had any health issues with me and have never had an accident outside of the litter box. They truly are great pets, but unfortunately due to a couple things on my end it's best they find a new loving home.

Story
Sullivan is a 7 year old lap cat. He is up to date on all shots, fixed, and front declawed. He loves to snuggle and will do well in a home that has more time and attention to give him. He's been around both cats and dogs and has done well around them. He is a little leery around new people but warms up to them quickly. After growing our family, we'd love to give him to a home who can give him the attention he deserves.

This is Marcel. Very sweet and nice cat. We adopted him 7 years ago when he was so tiny and helpless. Since that time he is a part of our family . Our plans made us come with a decision to move out of country and it makes it difficult for Marcel to travel with us. Due to stress and change of climate he might not handle it well. We are looking for a new family for him . Please help us to make his life enjoyable after we leave . Thank you

Story
Albus is a very handsome tuxedo boy and he is ready to join your home! Only under one condition, his sister, Luna, must come with too! Albus has lived with his sister, Luna, since they were itty bitty kittens and they do everything together. Albus is very affectionate and you can always find him loving on people or hanging out with his sister at the shelter. He is very sweet and has previously lived in a home with kids and dogs. Albus is FIV positive, but can still live with other cats, dogs or kids without any risk. FIV positive cats typically live normal, long, and healthy lives.
