COURTESY POSTING!

First two photos are of the gray cat that is very friendly, will purr a lot if you have a treat or something we'll stand on her hind legs for the treat purrs a lot meows. the other one is black I'm not sure if it's a boy or girl, but it will stand at the door and purr and everything will come into the home they are looking for homes all I know is that they are very friendly they are not bothered by dogs as I believe because I own a a dog and they're not bothered by her when they come into my home.

Would really love to find these kitties a home together if possible!

Hi everyone,
CAWS is really in need of volunteers! Especially helping with Barkin Bargains, our thrift shop. We could really use people to help running the register. It’s a really great way to meet and connect with people, you get great discounts and you’re helping kitties! It’s a really great CAUSE!

If you are interested please stop by Wed-Saturday from 10-4 to pick up an application.

Meet Baby, our one-eyed wonder with a heart full of love!

This sweet one-year-old girl has been through a lot — she lost an eye, had dental surgery, and lives with feline leukemia — but none of it has dimmed her spirit. Baby is as soft and snuggly as they come, and her affectionate personality can brighten even the gloomiest day.

Because of her diagnosis, Baby will need a little extra care and vet attention, and she’d do best as an only cat or with other leukemia-positive kitties.

If you’ve got room in your heart and home for a truly special soul, Baby is waiting to meet you at Roice-Hurst Humane Society. 💕
