ADOPTED Tiago, pictured, and Patrick, an all black male, were chosen to go home with a pet dad that wanted a pair. He knows that he has the capacity, space and time to have two cats meet and get along. These two cats, while they don't know each other yet, are very similar in friendly, warm personalities.
CONGRATULATIONS

Teagan is a pretty spayed female. This gorgeous black-and-white lady spent over a month living the outdoor life, fed by a kind soul who eventually called us for help. Now spayed, fully vetted, and ready for her glow-up era, she's on the hunt for a couch to call her own.
Teagan is easy going, friendly, and softer than she has any right to be. She'd probably be okay with a feline roommate.

Florence, 1 yr old, was found outside, alone with her babies, doing the very best she could to keep them safe and cared for. As any good mom would be, she was protective at first and unsure of what life indoors had to offer.
But once Florence discovered the comfort of a warm home and the kindness of people, she truly began to flourish. The timid, protective mama transformed into the wonderful cat you see today.
Florence is incredibly sweet, loving, and affectionate. She eagerly awaits her favorite humans and comes looking for attention as soon as she hears someone approaching. Now that her kittens are grown and her days of raising babies are behind her, it’s Florence’s turn to be cared for. This beautiful girl is ready for a forever home where she can enjoy all the love, comfort, and companionship she deserves.

Ladies and gentlemen, allow us to introduce... Hudson! This handsome 2-year-old former stray has officially clocked out of street life and clocked in for the indoor life — and he's not shy about letting you know how much he's loving it.
Nicknamed "Mr. Chatty" for very obvious reasons, Hudson will talk your ear off about his day, his feelings, and probably what's in his food bowl. When he's not narrating his life story, he's a playful goofball who's always ready for a game. And when the chatting and playing is done? He's all yours for pets and cuddles.
Looking for an active, chatty, super soft cat who'll keep you entertained and your lap warm? Hudson's your guy. Complete our adoption application today! (Link in bio)

ADOPTED! Lucky, wh/tabby, was adopted by a young couple as their first pet together. They loved his big fluffy tail and his friendly but playful personality.
Mailman, wh/bl, was chosen by a couple that loved his friendly but calm personality. Mailman had to be treated for a wound so he was with us for a bit of time before he could be adopted out but he is finally healed up. These adopters have already sent in updates saying he is adjusting well and they love having him.
Harris, orange, who is FIV+, was chosen by a family with two young boys. Harris was in their laps within minutes of entering his room. Harris is just a great cat. Cats with FIV usually live long healthy lives when kept indoors. This family is committed to keeping him safe and sound inside their home.
Reno, that crazy brown swirl tabby, is finally home. Reno is so full of energy that we had to allow him to free roam the downstairs of our shelter at night to get some of his energy out. This home "gets" him and will allow him a lot of space to play and be stimulated.
Along with these shelter adoptions, many many kittens are finding their way to homes through our amazing and dedicated foster home program. If you have any desire to become a foster for an adult cat or kittens, please sign up using the application on our website. We need you!

Meet Ryatt!
This sweet 12-week-old grey-and-white kitten is shy but growing more confident every day. Trapped outside with his brother Slade, Ryatt is still learning to trust humans — but he's already playful and full of purrs once he warms up.

Ryatt can be adopted with Slade, or go to a home that already has a furry friend to help him feel safe!
