Meet Tommy! 🐾

This handsome boy is quite the charmer. As a stray in his previous life, Tommy is quite the smart cat who has both an adventurous spirit and loveable personality.

At first glance, Tommy's rugged looks - muscular build, striking face, and a bit of a swagger - might make you think he's all about the tough life. But don't be fooled! He's a softie at heart who loves to lounge in a sunny spot, watch the birds outside, and roll around in catnip. When Tommy's in the mood for attention, he'll let you know but rubbing against you and giving you plenty of nudges!

Tommy came from the indoor/outdoor lifestyle and therefore would benefit from a home that is able to provide him with some supervised outdoor time. This could be in the form of a catio, a leash and harness, or supervised backyard time. Since being neutered, his need for exploration may diminish, however he will likely always need an active home that can provide him with plenty of things to do!

Meet Ash and Raya, a sweet and shy mother-daughter duo looking for their forever home together!

Ash, the gentle mom, is a calm and loving medium hair tuxedo cat who thrives best in a quiet environment. She may take a little time to warm up, but once she feels safe, she is quite the affectionate lady! Her foster mom has described her as a "very sweet soft, quiet, little soul."

Her daughter, Raya the medium hair tabby, is reserved, but her curiosity will often get the best of her and she will meow for attention and love! She is playful and especially enjoys wand toys. She seems to enjoy her mom's company and the two of them will snuggle up tightly to each other.

Both Ash and Raya are looking for a calm and patient family who can give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable in a new home. They still startle at loud noises or quick movements, but this is improving day by day!🐱🐱

🥰ADOPTION UPDATE🥰 : Do you remember Mildred, our beautiful senior Bengal kitty that was looking for a home back in November? Well she's got a new name, Marley, and a fantastic home that she's thriving in!

Here's was her adopters have to say after 1 month of having Marley in their life: "She plays intensely with us for hours every day then snuggles up on the couch for belly rubs. She has us all trained right from day one. The second she speaks, which is often, we all jump to her bidding. She is a wonderful, sweet cat who is very much loved and we will do everything in our power to give her a Happy Rest of Her Life!"

We are so thankful to her adopters for showing that senior pets, like Marley, are a treasure 💕

🥰ADOPTION UPDATE🥰 : Do you remember Cali, our rambunctious and vocal calico kitty that desperately needed a home back in November? Well her amazing adopters just sent this lovely 1-month adoption update on how she's settling into her home: "Her and cheese are the best of friends. They play together non stop and she’s become his little shadow."

Not only did she score an amazing human family, but she's found a kitty best friend and brother in Cheese! Clearly, she's right at home 💕

Sassy cat lovers - we got a delightfully sassy Tazzy available for adoption! Hisses and paw swats are included as part of her adoption - free of charge! 😼

Over the last 1.5 months, Tazzy has started to slowly earn the trust of her foster parent and begin to show her cute Tazzy-isms like sucking her thumb, pouncing on her foster parent for play, keeping her lap warm as she reads, and taking treat bribes to go in and out of the carrier. While it has been a long road to find out Tazzy's likes and dislikes, we are confident she'd thrive in a home that is patient, calm, experienced, and A-Okay with Tazzy ruling the household, often by force 😺.

It's a Christmas miracle! 🎁 Our Norcross Rd Stray was found and claimed by her owners today after nearly 2 weeks in our care! We knew there was a worried family somewhere looking for her and tried tracing dozens and dozens of different tattoo combinations to try and find them.

Luckily, with the help of our community helping to share our Facebook post about her, word finally got to her owner! 😽We are so thankful for everyone who shared that post and to her amazing foster family who took her in and cared for her for the last 2 weeks.💕 Thanks to you, she's now safely back with her family for the holidays 🎄
