Meet Annabelle, a very sweet and petite girl, approximately one year-old, who absolutely loves being with her human. She likes to sleep on the bed, sometimes on top of her human, and is on high alert for anything that moves. She loves to play with interactive toys, such as those on the end of a stick, and especially loves ping-pong balls, or anything that rolls across the floor. She is very talkative and vocal. It's unclear whether or not Annabelle is good with dogs, but through the baby gate, she sits calmly and seems more curious than anything about the current foster’s dogs. It appears she might be good with a non-reactive, calm dog after slow and proper introduction. The person who was giving her away in front of Walmart said she was not good with her cats, and the current foster confirmed that is true with her other foster cats. She has very soft fur and loves to be near her person, always seeming to want to be touching her, even if it's just a paw! Annabelle has been spayed, tested for any diseases, vaccinated, and micro chipped.

This is Gypsy, a six month old tabby with a little bit of tortoiseshell markings (oranges) who is currently in a foster home. Gypsy is a true love bug who enjoys snuggling and giving kisses. She loves to play and may do well with another cat if the other cat is accepting and they are slowly and properly introduced. However, Gypsy can be reactive when touched in certain places, if hands are moved towards her, or she is picked up. She seems to get overstimulated by these actions. As such, she may lightly nip in response so it is recommended that she be around experienced cat-owning adults who understand her behavior. She will not do well with children. Gypsy has been a solo cat and tends to seek playtime with her human companions. Occasionally, she may playfully go after their feet, but she responds well to correction. She has shown some hesitation with strangers, such as hissing when touched or being picked up, but she can warm up to them with time and familiarity. Once Gypsy gains confidence and socialization she responds well.

Meet Tango (orange and white) and Cash (gray and white) brothers who were adopted as kittens, but have sadly been returned to us due to unforeseen circumstances. These boys are sweet and friendly, and we would love for them to be rehomed once again with a loving, devoted family. Tango is much more outgoing than Cash, but both will need time to adjust. Tango and Cash need to remain together. Please contact us if interested in meeting Tango and Cash.

Meet Echo, a handsome adult black male with a purr as loud as they come! Echo is sweet, loving, friendly and likes to play. He gets along with most other cats and is currently sharing space with another of our cats and they get along very nicely. Slow introduction between cats is always important to make sure they will get along. He seems to be unsure about dogs, so a no-dog home would be best. Echo had some dental surgery recently due to some stomatitis but he's recovered well from that procedure and is on a wet food diet, along with some dry food now that his mouth has healed. He purrs like a motor boat! We know Echo will love a new, forever home for himself. Please let us know if you would like to meet Echo!

GoGo Boots is a young (about 2 years old) orange and white female who was adopted from us as a kitten, but was found abandoned; we were unable to contact the adopter so she is back with us and looking for a real, loving and forever home again. She is a bit shy at first, but warms up slowly and gains confidence. She likes playing with wand toys, is always on the move! This girl is usually very snuggly!. GOGO BOOTS NEEDS TO BE IN A HOME WITH NO OTHER PETS!! Let us know if you'd like to make arrangements to meet GoGo Boots!😺😽
