💛 Meet Sticky Note, 3 years young 💛

Age: 3
Relationship Status: Looking for someone who appreciates naps, snacks, and a little bit of playful chaos.

About Me:

If you stop by my condo, there’s a good chance you’ll find me sleeping upside down like I’ve completely forgotten how gravity works. When I’m not perfecting my napping technique, I’m busy seeking attention from my favorite people or showing off my playful side.

Likes:
✔️ Cozy beds
✔️ Long naps
✔️ Attention from humans
✔️ Wet food
✔️ Playtime
✔️ Sleeping in ridiculous positions

Dislikes:
✖️ Sharing the spotlight with cats I don’t know
✖️ Running out of wet food

Fun Facts:
• Professional upside-down sleeper
• Sweet and affectionate
• Loves attention from people
• Playful when the mood strikes
• Would need a dog test to see how I feel about canine roommates
• Not a fan of seeing another cat in the social room, so I may prefer being your one-and-only feline

My ideal home includes a comfy bed, plenty of love, and humans who appreciate a cat with personality. I’ll happily keep you company, make you laugh with my sleeping positions, and remind you when it’s time for wet food.

If you’re searching for a sweet girl who can balance playful energy with championship-level napping skills, we might be the perfect match. ❤️

💕 Meet Q Tip, 2 years young 💕

Age: 2
Relationship Status: Looking for someone who appreciates affection and always remembers snack time.

About Me:

I’m a sweet, loving girl who believes attention is one of life’s greatest joys. If you’re sitting down, there’s a good chance I’ll be nearby hoping for pets and companionship. I love spending time with my people and am always happy to soak up affection.

Likes:
✔️ Attention
✔️ Wet food
✔️ Treats
✔️ Cozy naps
✔️ Being told I’m a good girl

Dislikes:
✖️ Empty treat containers
✖️ Being left out of cuddle time

Fun Facts:
• Sweet and affectionate
• May do well with another cat after proper introductions
• Would need a dog test to see how I feel about canine roommates
• Serious wet food enthusiast
• Treat-motivated and proud of it

My ideal home is one where love is given freely and snack time is taken seriously. I’m young, adorable, and ready to find a family to call my own.

If you’re looking for a sweet companion who will happily accept all the attention you have to offer, I think we could be a perfect match. ❤️

Waylon’s adventure today ❤️

The first time we took Waylon on an outing, he was nervous about getting in and out of the car. Today was his third adventure, and he jumped right in both times! He still prefers to lay down while the car is moving, but that’s huge progress. 🥰

This boy is absolutely full of adventure, and every hike shows off more of his amazing personality. He didn’t hesitate to cross a stream by balancing across a log like a pro. We also discovered that he LOVES water... but only on his own terms, because bath time is still a hard no. 🫣😂

One of the sweetest moments was watching him stick close to my son while he explored the woods geocaching. Waylon was determined to keep up with him every step of the way. I truly think he’d make an incredible companion for an active family and would watch over older kids like a hawk. ❤️

His biggest surprise of the day? A snapping turtle! Let’s just say he about jumped right out of his fur when he spotted it. 😂

Waylon is ready for a family of his own to take him on all the adventures his heart desires. 💙

Waylon spent yesterday morning doing what he loves most—exploring! 🥾💙

This handsome guy went hiking and geocaching and had an absolute blast. He confidently made his way through the brush, hopped over logs like a pro, and was up for every adventure that came his way. Waylon would make the perfect hiking buddy for someone who loves spending time outdoors.

Such a good boy, and he’s ready to find a family to share all of life’s adventures with! 🐾

Please share! Waylon is our longest resident dog- he’s been with us since March 2025! He is great with children, but would prefer to be your one and only pet!

🤍 Meet Cashmere, 2 years young 🤍

Age: 2
Relationship Status: It's complicated... I want attention, but on my terms.

About Me:
I'm the shelter's longest resident, which honestly says more about humans than it does about me. I'm sweet, affectionate, and absolutely love being loved on—but I believe personal boundaries are a sign of emotional maturity.

Likes:
✔️ Cozy beds
✔️ Wet food
✔️ Treats (the way to my heart)
✔️ Gentle pets and attention
✔️ People who respect boundaries

Dislikes:
✖️ Being picked up
✖️ Pushy roommates
✖️ Anyone who thinks consent is optional

Fun Facts:
• FELV/FIV negative
• Spayed and microchipped
• May be interested in a feline roommate after proper introductions
• Probably not looking to add a dog to my social circle
• Doesn't play much, but that's because I'm busy perfecting the art of relaxation

My love language is quality time. I won't be the cat climbing all over you demanding attention 24/7, but when I'm ready for affection, I'll seek you out and happily soak up all the pets you have to offer.

If you're looking for a cat who values mutual respect, appreciates the finer things in life, and will reward your patience with genuine affection, we might just be a perfect match.

Cashmere is searching for a forever home with older kids (10+) and people who understand that the best relationships are built on trust, treats, and a really comfortable bed. ❤️

❤ Meet Grayson, 11.5 years young ❤

Age: 11.5
Relationship Status: Single and looking for the perfect couch to share.

About Me:
I'm a distinguished silver gentleman with a heart of gold and zero interest in unnecessary drama. My ideal day includes finding the softest spot in the house, taking a few luxurious naps, and accepting compliments about how handsome I am.

Likes:
✔️ Cozy blankets
✔️ Sunny windows
✔️ Other cats
✔️ Being brushed (well... eventually)
✔️ Quiet companionship

Dislikes:
✖️ Cardio
✖️ Being rushed
✖️ The idea that I should "act my age"

Fun Facts:
• Litter box trained like the gentleman I am
• FELV/FIV negative
• Neutered, microchipped, and ready for commitment
• Recently got a little spa treatment from the vet and I'm looking much better every day

I'm not much of a toy chaser these days—I've entered my "retirement era." If you're searching for a calm, affectionate companion who will happily keep you company while you binge-watch your favorite shows, swipe right on me.

Grayson is child-friendly, cat-friendly, and searching for a forever home where he can spend his golden years being loved exactly as he deserves. ❤️
