Story
Meet Corrine.    Corrine is a purrfeeccttt cat that meets all the internet meme qualities you are looking for! She excels in kitty grump face, extreme feather toy destruction and enjoys a plethora of kitty zoomies and purrs. Corrine is a brave girl and feisty but loves to rub and snuggle, on her terms. She had little love nips and super fast paws when she plays which makes her a STELLAR kitty cat though her forever home will after to understand that she refers to herself as a tiny panther, not a house cat. She loves to look out the window, give you small meows of joy and snuggle for Netflix times. She used to live with other cats, and seems to enjoy the company of other kitties. She LOVES dogs, but wants to be able to rub them on her terms, they must understand she is royalty and they exist to serve her. If a dog does choose to BOOP her a little quickly she just lets them know it is unacceptable and keeps about her business. Corrine would love a home with kids if they are respectful of her queen like stature and understand that felines require somewhere between 1-4 strokes of petting before the fifth becomes a chance to play the “gotcha hand” kitty game. So, if you have been looking for the kitty queen of your dreams, please apply to adopt our GORGEOUS Corrine!   When you adopt, your new fur baby will come completely vetted with the following:&#226&#128&#139 Overall health checkup Microchip Age/Health Appropriate Vaccinations Heart worm test (for dogs) Fiv/FeLV tested (for cats) Parvo test (for dogs) Spay/neuter (voucher for puppy/kitten if not old enough to be sterilized)   Can you bring me home?

Story
Elias here! I'm a handsome boy looking for a loving home. I like attention and will literally grab you as you walk by to get some loving. I'm very vocal too making it hard to ignore me. I'm not much of a player, toys actually kind of scare me which foster mom thinks is crazy but hey, everyone has their weakness. I just want to live the good life with a family to call my own that will pet me all the time!     When you adopt, your new fur baby will come completely vetted with the following:&#226&#128&#139 Overall health checkup Microchip Age/Health Appropriate Vaccinations Heart worm test (for dogs) Fiv/FeLV tested (for cats) Parvo test (for dogs) Spay/neuter (voucher for puppy/kitten if not old enough to be sterilized)   Can you bring me home?

Story
Oreo is a chatter box who rarely sits still, because he is too busy soliciting affection! He will follow you around the house and makes sure he gets noticed. Oreo does fine with dogs and cats that respect his space, but would not do well with another alpha already in the home. He loves to cuddle and be rubbed, but isn't a fan of being held, although he will let you hold him in exchange for pets! He LOVES food and treats. He values cuddles and affection over playtime and would rather snuggle with you or follow you around the house talking. He would likely enjoy a family with children!

Story
Dale is FIV + Dale is working on trusting humans, but is learning to accept and even enjoy affection from humans. He doesn't like to be held but with time, we know he will become the perfect companion for someone who doesn't require an overly affectionate kitty. He absolutely loves other cats, especially brave and outgoing ones, as they help him to be brave too. He blossoms in the presence of other kitties! Oh, and LOVES other cats. Absolutely blossoms when Simba comes into the room. He'll start rubbing up against Simba and purring. When you adopt, your new fur baby will come completely vetted with the following:&#226&#128&#139 Overall health checkup Microchip Age/Health Appropriate Vaccinations Heart worm test (for dogs) Fiv/FeLV tested (for cats) Parvo test (for dogs) Spay/neuter (voucher for puppy/kitten if not old enough to be sterilized)   Can you bring me home?
