Story
Onyx is a very laid back, very affectionate cat. He likes to hang out by the window and patio doors and enjoy the scenery outside. He does like to try to go outside, so caution with open windows and doors is a must. He loves to eat, so food intake must be closely watched. He likes being pet and meeting new people. With my new work schedule I am hardly ever home and when I am, I have about a hundred things to do and it isn’t fair to him.

Story
Oliver is a sweet 5 year old male. He was adopted 4 years ago from a rescue with what was assumed to be an upper respiratory infection. As it turns out, it was not an infection, but nasal polyps that needed surgery to remove. Since then, Oliver has needed 3 additional surgeries related to complications/infections. One of those surgeries was the removal of all of his teeth due to stomatitis (mouth/gum infection). As a result of his toothlessness, he requires a soft food diet and periodic steroid injections for pain and inflammation in his gums. He thrives with a consistent feeding and medication schedule. Unfortunately, we had never planned on owning a special needs cat and we are no longer able to keep up with his care load. Oliver is a very talkative and loving boy who loves sleeping on a chest or lap, curled up in the blankets. Oliver needs a home which anticipates his special needs and can give him the care he deserves to live his best life.

Story
Milo and Wendell are two sweet and adorable cats that have been living together for about 15 years now. My father took care of them for most of their life. He passed away 5 years ago and I have been caring for them ever since. I will be moving soon and I am very sorry to say that I will no longer be able to give them a stable home, and they certainly deserve one. They are quiet and relaxed in their old age, but their eyes light up when a string or a toy mouse snakes it's way along the floor. I hope someone can give them a happy and loving home.

Story
Gilbert and his sister Tyson are in need of a new home. I adopt these amazing critters from a shelter in Utah 8 years ago. They have been together their whole lives and need to stay together. When I moved back to the Albany area they lived with my mom because my new wife is highly allergic to them, but sadly they are in need of a new home. Gilbert is a fun loving cat whole always needs to be in the same room as you and loves to be petted. He's not super happy about being carried or picked up but loved to sit on the arm of the sofa and have you pet him for hours. He loves his treats and toys and is pretty vocal. He's a great boy who is very friendly.

Story
Titus is a fun-loving cat who is a little shy at first but she warms up quickly. He loves to lay right next to you in bed and will always be next to you when you are hanging out anywhere in the house. She has the most adorable little meow and loves to run around with toys and look out the window and let you know when there is a bird or a large leaf outside. She and her brother sleep together almost every night and I have only seen argue a handful of times ever.
