BISCUIT
is a sweet and curious 2-year-old neutered male who was brought up to us from West Virginia after recovering from a leg injury. He's a friendly boy who's still a little nervous about the transition to the shelter but has gotten more and more comfortable by the day! He loves to be pet and enjoys exploring our cat rooms when he has access to them.
Biscuit would do well in a home that wants an active and sweet kitty who loves attention.

MAGGIE MAY
is shy but curious 1-year old spayed female who was brought into us terrified in a massive dog crate. After that traumatizing experience, Maggie has been slow to open up, but she has been making progress! She seeks out treats from us and is interested in our hands when we rest them in the cage, though she's still nervous if we move too quickly. She adores our other cats and will come up to the bars to chirp when we have other cats loose in the room.
She's a great girl with a lot of potential who just needs someone who'll be willing to give her that extra bit of work to help her blossom.
Maggie Mae is spayed and up to date on her vaccines.

TIGGER
is a 3-year-old neutered male who came to us from Animal Control when his owner could no longer take care of him. The shelter environment has been stressful for Tigger and he's been a bit slow to adjust with us.
He tends to enjoy hanging out in his bed and can get a little stressed when removed from his comfort zone, but he's started getting used to our staff members. He'll rub up against our legs and seeks attention from the people he knows, even when he's feeling insecure outside of his cage, though he's currently not the keenest on getting picked up.
We think with patience and consistency he'll turn out to be a very loving boy.
SORBET
is a wonderful 11 year old neutered male who was surrendered to the shelter due to an unfortunate change in his previous owner's living situation that meant they could no longer keep him. Sorbet is a sweet boy who loves attention! He's good about being picked up and is always quick to come to the front of his cage in search of pets whenever a staff member enters the room. He's a healthy boy and a great eater despite being on the older side and it's obvious that he was deeply loved.
Sorbet is a wonderful cat who would do well with a family that wants a good boy on the older side to shower with attention throughout his senior years.
Sorbet is diabetic and receives an inulin injection twice every day along with being on a special diabetic diet.

PITBULL
is a sweet and confident 1 year old neutered male who was surrendered to the shelter with his buddy Strawberry. From the moment he came to the shelter, he was social and friendly with our staff! He loves pets and head scratches, doesn't seem to mind being picked up, and loves to play with his toys.
The people who signed Strawberry and Pitbull over to the shelter stated that they were a bonded pair, so despite currently living in different cages here at the shelter, the two may like to find a home together if possible!

STRAWBERRY
is a sweet and talkative 5 year old spayed female who was surrendered to the shelter with her buddy Pitbull. She loves the company of people and can most often be caught meowing at the front of her cage waiting for someone to come over and give her attention. She's very gentle and doesn't seem bothered by being picked up.

Strawberry in particular seems like she would like to have him with her wherever the two end up!

VIGGO
is a social and outgoing 3 year old neutered male who came into the shelter after being picked up as a stray with a bite wound in his shoulder. After treating his injury and holding him in quarantine for a month to ensure he did not contract any diseases from the bite, Viggo is finally ready to find his forever home!. Don't let this beautiful boy's sad eyes fool you!
This kitty is one of the sweetest and friendliest in the building, always eager to come up to the front of his cage for pets and attention. He's not the chattiest cat in the building, but he's certainly not afraid to use his voice!
Viggo would make an excellent addition to any home that wants a wonderful kitty with a bit of a troubled past.
