LAVENDER LOVE This sweet and beautiful 3-year-old girl is looking for a peaceful, loving forever home. Lavender was adopted from us as a kitten, but sadly returned after 3 years when her owner became ill. Now she’s hoping for a second chance with someone who will cherish her as much as she deserves.
Lavender is a gentle soul who thrives in a quiet environment with no children and no other pets. She has mild asthma, which means she needs to be in a home free from things like scented candles, air fresheners, scents/perfumes, smoke, and other strong fumes — just like a person with allergies. But here’s the good news: she does not require any medication, just a clean and scent-free space to breathe easy and be happy. * Special note: Lavender is so afraid of vacuums that she will p**p, so best to keep her closed in a room away from where any vacuuming is happening!
We know her condition might make it a little harder for her to find a home, but it shouldn’t — because Lavender is truly a gem. All she needs is someone kind and understanding, who sees that her needs are simple and very manageable in the right home.
Lavender has so much love to give — could you be her person?
If you might be interested, please contact us to talk possibilities like foster-to-adopt or other options for this wonderful girl!
Please, someone give her a chance, she shouldn't have to spend any more of her life in a cage for no reason....

We got an update on cute Mango (formerly Punkin) adopted August 7th: “He has met the others and really loves his big brother Mo. Mo is a very gentle cat with tons of fluff and Mango took to him immediately. Susie has been less enthusiastic about the kitten’s energy but has been gentle.” We understand kittens have a LOT of energy. And sometimes staying a bit removed is a good thing. Thank you Mo for taking care of him. Maybe you can help tame that energy❤️
