Farfalle

Age: 4 months old
Gender: Female
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Color: Black
​Purr-sonality: ​Farfalle was rescued at an early age with her two brothers from a feral cat population. She immediately adapted to interacting and behaving properly with people. She is practically perfect: outgoing, smart, brave, energetic and still sweet and loving. Farfalle is litter trained and healthy. She is very confident and doesn't exhibit anxiety. She is petite compared to her siblings, and will probably have a small frame like her mother. With her white "bowtie" she is very cute and friendly.
She is friendly toward, but respectful of, a senior Chihuahua. Farfalle is looking for a home with older children or adults who have the time to play with her and make her part of the family. She gets along with other cats following a proper introduction. If you are looking for a young kitten who promises to keep you entertained but also wants cuddling, Farfalle is your girl.

Cheeto

Age: 4 months old
Gender: Male
Breed: Maine Coon
Color: Orange/Red Tabby
​Purr-sonality: ​Meet Cheeto, the non-stop purring machine. He is being neutered 2/8 and will be available for adoption after. Unbelievably left behind in a rental this sweet 4-5 month old kitten is incredibly affectionate. He enjoys putting himself upon your chest right next to your chin and purring away. Cheeto is also VERY chatty and will carry on long conversations. Simply adorable. Cheeto is also all kitten - he loves to play with toy mice, feather sticks, and jingle toys. He is not fond of the vet and getting shots though - he needs to be burritoed because the vet is scary. Cheeto is very tolerant of other cats and loves to play with them, especially ones around his own age. He would do well with adults and/or families with cat-respectful children. He has been around cat-friendly small dogs briefly and was not reactive.

Blue

Age: 5 months old
Gender: Male
Breed: Russian Blue
Color: Grey/Blue/Silver
​Purr-sonality: ​Sweet little Blue is a very gentle and loving 6 month old kitten who loves to play and cuddle. He sleeps with his foster mom and the rest of the foster cats. He gets along with the foster's dog. He would do best in a home with at least one other cat because he is very social. Blue and his brother Andy could be adopted together but do not have to be since Blue gets along with just about anyone.

Andy

Age: 5 months old
Gender: Male
Breed: Maine Coon
Color: Brown Tabby
​Purr-sonality: Andy is a beautiful boy but on the shy and uncertain side - he feels more confident when there are other cats around. He loves to be petted but approaches very cautiously. He should be in a home with older children or adults, who understand how to let a shy kitty get comfortable. He will take a little extra time to adjust to a new home, but if there are other friendly cats in the home it will increase his confidence

Noche

Sombra
Age: 5 months old
Gender: Males
Breed: Domestic ShortHair
Color: Black and Tabby
​Purr-sonality: Noche and  Sombra are two sweet, funny, adorable teen littermates that came from a place they were living outdoors unattended. A kind caretaker started feeding them but wanted them to find an indoor home together and so they came into our rescue. These two brothers have been in a foster home with school aged kids and other cats. They are comfortable being indoor cats and we wish them to stay that way. They are bonded so we require them to be adopted together. They sleep together, play together, eat together and groom each other. They play and cuddle independently as well, but they always know where the other one is.

Olivia

Age: 3 months old
Gender: Female
Breed: Domestic Medium Hair
Color: White and Grey
​Purr-sonality: ​​​​​Sweet, shy little Olivia is a soft and cuddly young female who will be spayed 2/15 and then be available to go to her new home. She CAN be pre-adopted. Found at an abandoned rental, at first she was very frightened - no suprise there! With good food, a warm foster home, other kitties to reassure her, and kind people she has relaxed and started showing her true colors. Olivia is gentle but playful, loving but shy, trusting but cautious and would love to have a kitty companion around her own age.

Timmy

Age: 13 years old
Gender: Male
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Color: Brown Tabby and White
​Purr-sonality: ​​​​Timmy is an active 13 year old kitty who is independent, mellow and always ready for a head rub. He would do great on a ranch or farm and likes to hang around at the horse pen. He would do best as an indoor/outdoor cat as that is what he has been used to. He gets on well with other cats and is used to dogs of all sizes as long as they are respectful. Timmy is a very confident cat and while he likes his own space, when he sees you, he will run up to greet you. He is an excellent mouser. Timmy is fixed, vaccinated and tested negative for leukemia.

​Twinkle

Age: 13 years old
Gender: Female
Breed: Domestic Long Hair
Color: Brown Tabby and White
​Purr-sonality: ​​​Twinkle, or "Twinky" as she is nicknamed is a no-nonsense, easy keeper who would make a great companion. She is 13 years young and uses the litter box just fine. She is a really nice kitty who gets along with other cats and tolerates dogs. Twinky is an easy keeper, no drama kind of kitty, who just enjoys being. She plays a little, cuddles, enjoys window-watching, and sitting in the sun on the porch on a cool day. In warm weather Twinky enjoys sitting on the porch in the shade. Twinky would do very well as an indoor cat with access to a catio.

Beau Brummel

Age: 2 years old
Gender: Male
Breed: Main Coon
Color: Grey/Blue/Silver and White
​Purr-sonality: ​​This handsome and dapper gentleman in his grey and white tuxedo was named for the famous arbiter of Regency fashion. Beau is a large cat who still needs to gain a little more weight after his experiences living on the streets for awhile. This gentleman has charming manners and a very loving demeanor. Beau is also VERY chatty and will carry on a conversation with you as long as you keep it up. Beau is an excellent office helper and knows his way around a printer and computer quite well. His keyboarding still needs some work though. He has a tendency though to want to sit on the desk or office table to keep the paperwork in order and sneak in a few chin scratches if he cab. Beau is very outgoing and people-oriented. However he tolerates dogs and other cats with practiced ease - if they are being annoying, he just finds a more private spot and ignores them. If they are being friendly he will indulge in a little mutual grooming or looking out windows side by side. He gets along well with another cat named Cowboy. they could be adopted together or separately, Both have tested positive for FIV, both are large cats, and both are very affectionate. Beau would do well in a quieter type of home, where there are affectionate people. Older school age kids and up are good. He would be quite large for young children. Beau is a great guy but due to the FIV MUST be indoor-only.

Cowboy

Age: 2 years old
Gender: Male
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Color: Black
​Purr-sonality: ​​Cowboy was found near a cattle-raising country town, so the name Cowboy suits him. He appeared to have been abandoned but due to his extremely friendly nature he struck up a friendship with several folks in the neighborhood who started feeding him. One home in particular was struck by his loving nature and decided to get him neutered and introduce him to her indoor cat. Unfortunately, when he went to the vet, they discovered he was FIV positive. The home owner did not want the cat to mingle with her indoor cat (although research has shown FIV does not spread among cats that are fixed and do not fight) so she asked the vet practice to put him down. Not feeling comfortable about this the vet practice reached out to this rescue and we took him in. Cowboy is a delightful kitty. He is obviously well-fed (i.e. chunky) and is always ready for his next meal. Cowboy has adapted well to indoor life - FIV+ cats should not be outside where they can be exposed to cat diseases and parasites. Keeping them healthy is the path to them living a normal life with a normal life expectancy. One could not ask for a sweeter kitty pal - except maybe his buddy Beau Brummell. The two get along and are both FIV+. Adopting them both together would be great, but it is not a requirement. We do not know how Cowboy is with dogs, but he tolerates other cats fine as long as they do not attack him. He is playful but his favorite thing to do is hang out with people and get LOTS of "lovins." Cowboy is a large cat so we recommend a home with no one younger than 6 years old - he is heavy and young child would struggle to pick him up. Cowboy DOES like to be held but is nervous during the lifting process, probably he has been dropped before. Someone who knows how to pick up a cat safely and has the strength to do it will find him very affectionately nuzzling their neck and purring away.

Sierra

Age: 1 year old
Gender: Female
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Color: Black
​Purr-sonality: ​​Sierra was found with her three kittens living behind a gas station on a busy road trying to find scraps of food to eat. They were all semi feral and very afraid. That was almost a year ago and sadly as is all too common today, Sierra was a kitten having kittens. The kittens tamed easily and found loving homes and now it is Sierra's turn. She is about a year and a half and has a solid black shiny coat. She is good with other cats and used to dogs both small and large. In the beginning, when she saw me she would run away and when I had put the food down and moved a safe distance away, only then would she come and eat. That behavior lasted many months until she finally understood that there was nothing to fear. Now Sierra jumps up on the deck when she sees me coming and lets me rub her head and pet her. I can pick her up for vet appointments but she will stiffen up. She has mellowed tremendously but still has those moments when she will run away and wait. Sierra needs an experienced cat owner or someone who understands a wounded soul and is prepared to be patient and devote time and affection to a young cat who I believe will make a great companion. There is nothing mean about Sierra - even when I would reach to hold her she never tried to bite or scratch me. With other cats, she is an easy keeper, a blender who doesn't want to be the center of attention. Sierra is healthy, spayed, vaccinated and Felv/Fiv negative. She knows her name and will come when called unless she is having one of those days when she is feeling fearful. Although she loves the outdoors, I think she could easily transition to indoor only as long as she has a window to look out from.

Astra

Age: 2 years old
Gender: Female
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Color: White
​Purr-sonality: ​​Astra is the mother of Izzy. She was rescued near starvation from an abandoned home with approximately 20 other cats. Astra was pregnant at the time and ended up giving birth to another litter of kittens soon after rescue. Initially fearful and with no idea of what it was like to be a cozy secure housecat, Astra has slowly warmed up and turned into a cautious but nice kitty. She loves hanging out in the kitchen "helping" load the dishwasher and supervising the meal prep. Her nickname is "Beepers" because of her cute little noises. Like her daughter Izzy she does not meow. She loves spending time with her foster family who are all adults. She has no experience with children. There are other cats in the home and she has also slowly grown to be ok with them. However, Astra would adore being the one and only cat in someone's life. She is able to keep herself amused while the adults are working and enjoy time with them when they are home. She needs someone patient who will let her warm up slowly to her adopters. Once she does she will continue to bloom. She has no experience with dogs.

Mysti

Age: 6 years old
Gender: Female
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Color: Grey/Blue/Silver and White
​Purr-sonality: ​​Mysti is a sweet and sensitive girl with a calm disposition. Her owners moved out of their home and unfortunately left Mysti behind. She was found sitting on the porch in the cold waiting for someone to come home. Thankfully the neighbors heard her cries and were able to take her in temporarily. I think she is around 6 years old. She has been spayed, tested negative for Felv/Fiv and has all her shots. She has mild tartar on her teeth and is scheduled for a dental on January 7th so she would be available for adoption after the 14th. Mysti is around other cats and gets on well with them. If a cat is aggressive with her she will show her displeasure and back off. Mysti is a lover and not a fighter. She is used to both big and little dogs and they don't faze her. Mysti knows her name and comes when called. She longs for love pats and attention but is not needy. She would do well in a calm home with older children or with a single person or couple. She has no bad habits and uses the litter box with no issues. She would be a great indoor cat and the type who would sit in the window and watch the world go by. She also likes the patio and to sit in front of the house. Mysti would make a wonderful companion cat once she has adjusted to her new home.

Cocoa

​Age: 4 years old
Gender: Female
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Color: Tortoiseshell
​Purr-sonality: Cocoa is approximately four years young and is waiting for a home of her own. She was a painfully thin stray when she found my place; a little afraid and cautious at first and yet when she realized that she was going to have a warm bed and good food, she quickly came around. Cocoa has the most beautiful mottled beige and gray fur coat which makes her stand out in a crowd. She is a relatively passive, quiet girl who minds her own business and just gets on with life. Cocoa does not like drama. She is fine with other cats and tries to make friends with them, and she is calm around dogs both big and small. Cocoa is loving but not needy. In a new home she would be wary at first and hide, but once she realizes that she is part of the family she will soon warm up. She is both indoor and outdoor right now but could easily transition to an indoor only life. Cocoa is spayed, has all her shots and is felv/fiv negative. She is an excellent mouser and and easy keeper.

Adoption Pending Hope

Age: 1 year old
Gender: Female
Breed: Domestic Medium Hair
Color: Tuxedo
​Purr-sonality: ​​​Hope is a petite one year old (approx.) black and white kitty who had a rough start in life. She was brought into my vet heavily pregnant with no home to go to. She was semi feral and very hissy and afraid. The vet called me and asked if I could take her. I did and I called her Hope because even though the odds were stacked against her, I believed that this girl could be tamed and she could get the home she deserved. Two days later she gave birth to five kittens, all who died within ten days. Poor Hope! She was a kitten having kittens and didn't know how to be a mother - it was very sad and I felt that she was grieving. It was at this time that she began to let me touch her. Slowly at first but then she would come up to me for head rubs. Eventually she started to trust me and I could pick her up! No growling, hissing or running away. I had her fixed and vaccinated and she started to mingle with the other rescues. Hope has been with me for six months and is ready to find her permanent home. She wants to bond with someone and belong. Hope is fine around other cats and is used to dogs. She would do well in a peaceful home without young children because often their actions are loud and quick and Hope is sometimes afraid of quick, sudden movements. Loud noises scare her. She loves food and this is the way to her heart. No bad habits and she uses the litter box just fine.

P.J.

Age: 8 years old
Gender: Male
Breed: Domestic Long Hair
Color: Tuxedo
Purr-sonality: ​This 8 yr old fellow, P.J., was living contentedly with his owner, a paraplegic Vietnam Veteran, who had rescued him off the streets, when a tragic house fire occurred. Somehow P.J. survived event although his owner did not. His kind-hearted neighbor, who happens to foster for us, took him in and cared for him until the owner's son was able to make decisions about the future of many things, PJ included. PJ suffered from smoke inhalation but kept returning to his home crying throughout the burned ruins. We were concerned for his health and safety but it was impossible to contain him inside. Once the son decided to let P.J. be surrendered in order to find him a new home, we were able to get him the necessary vetting he needed. The vet describes him as a very nice boy, who just wants to loved on. His current foster describes him as a wonderful boy who is still grieving. P.J. needs a new start with someone loving and kind, someone who can help heal his grieving heart. He has lived his whole life as an indoor-outdoor cat but does enjoy being warm and cozy. At his age, it is time to give him all the comforts and only let him outside if he demands it.

Marco

Age: 10 years old
Gender: Male
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Color: Black
​Purr-sonality: Meet the intrepid Marco. Named for the explorer Marco Polo, this guy has exploration and discovery down to a science. Famous for exploring the entire veterinary office when he was first rescued, he is a favorite with the vet staff. Marco adores people and gets along with most cats once he knows them. He has a huge purr and loves snuggles and pets more than food. He was very thin when first rescued and is starting to fill out now he has had regular food and a warm bed in which to sleep. We would love for him to have a senior to foster him. He would keep someone great company. He is a nice boy who interacts easily with both adults and cat-friendly children. Marco is an affection machine. He stands up to give your hand a head bunt, grabs your hand with both paws to let you know he doesn't want you to stop petting him, and he follows you around like a lost puppy. Simply a wonderful loving companion who will bring you much joy. Like a fine wine he has improved with age. Marco gets along with other cats too.
