This affectionate lady arrived after her only owner had to move into feline-unfriendly housing due to circumstances beyond their control. It was a painful decision, and the assurance that her beloved pet would be safe at the Shelter until we were able to find her a loving home helped to ease some of the separation anxiety. SMOKEY has proven herself to be a very personable cat with a calm demeanor and a willingness to accept attention. She has a soft, gray coat and large eyes in a sweet face. At 10 years old, SMOKEY has the experience to respect your belongings, yet she still has plenty of interest in play. Just bring out string or a laser pointer and let the fun begin!
Chief is a magnificent 3 year-old male cat who wants to be your one and only! Chief loves to chat and bat toys around with his paws. He even likes to show off those extra toes! If you admire the strong, independent type, stop by and introduce yourself to this guy. He has a short light coat that is nicely striped, and a confident attitude. He enjoys attention, and will also let you know when it's time to pursue other interests. For this reason, he would do best in an adult only/adult with older teens home. He also needs a home where he can't see other animals walking around outside. In any event, he has a cheery greeting for human visitors and is waiting for that forever home of his own.
This handsome, gray and white guy is a mere year and a half old, yet he is so loving and simply adores attention, rolling over so you can rub his belly. His eyes close in sheer gratitude. He is calm, loving and purrs his appreciation. He was brought in after given to some kids, so he will be waiting with paws crossed that you will offer him a forever home. Stop by and spend some time with this lovable fellow.
Marta has got a pair of shining blue eyes that look out from an adorable face. Found as a stray, this one year old girl is looking to find a home where she will be loved and appreciated for the darling that she is. Marta is a Siamese-mix, with a creamy coat and orange markings. She's an absolute knockout to look at with a sweet personality to match. You'll be thrilled by her playful antics and enthusiastic greetings. Come by and shake paws with this gorgeous girl.
Sunny by name, sunny by nature, this loving two year old boy was left at our doorstep, and is waiting for his special someone to share fun times chasing toys, laser pointer tag, a good brushing or two and plenty of affection. This sweet boy has such a soft coat and he willingly rolls around to accept belly rubs and enjoys a good ear/cheek/chin rub too. He is playful and even paws his toys under his kennel to catch your eye just in case you didn't notice his stunningly marked orange and creamy-white coat. He's looking forward to introducing himself to you. Come by soon.
Horace is a very cute, friendly, active 4 month boy. He gets over-excited when he sees people, and tries to play with your feet and wrestle with you. When he is around other cats, he loves to roughhouse, like any little fella does. He loves to purr when you hold him, and is very sweet & he craves attention. Playing with his toys is his favorite pastime. I would not recommend him in a home with small children, because he tends to plays rough at times. Overall, he is a very sweet kitten, and will be a great companion for a family who likes the active/crazy antics of a lively kitten with a very outgoing personality.
