🎄 Meet Soxie! 🎄
🎀 Breed: Domestic Short Hair
❄️ Color: Tuxedo Grey & White
🎁 Female (Spayed)
✨ DOB: January 13, 2011

Soxie is the gift that keeps on giving! This gorgeous grey and white tuxedo gal is ready to light up your holiday season with her charm and playful spirit.

When you come home, she’ll flop over like a sweet little snow angel, hoping for belly rubs. She loves keeping you company while you work at your computer or snuggle up in bed on chilly winter nights. Her favorite pastime? Napping in sunny spots—bonus points if it’s on her favorite blanket!

🎅 Soxie has a playful side too! She’ll chase toys, get her catnip fix, and even let you brush her… when she feels like it (every queen deserves her boundaries!).

This holiday season, Soxie’s one wish is to find her forever home. Could you be the one to make her Christmas dreams come true?

Cooper’s Christmas Wish: A Cozy Forever Home!

Meet Cooper, a sweet and gentle boy with a heart as big as his extra toes! This handsome buff-and-white polydactyl cat was born on 11/3/2022 and is ready to bring his quiet charm to a loving family.

💕 Male/Neutered
🐾 Shy but Affectionate

Cooper might be a little shy at first, but once he warms up, his affectionate and loving nature truly shines. He adores petting sessions and has peacefully lived with other cats and even a large dog.

🏡 Best Fit: A calm, quiet home with gentle, respectful children aged 6+. Cooper is sensitive to loud noises and sudden movements, so a serene environment is ideal for him to thrive.

At our recent Whiskers and Words event, Cooper started the evening tucked away in a dollhouse but gradually crept closer to the group, observing from his perch. By the end of the night, he charmed everyone by accepting pets as the guests departed—a sweet glimpse of his blossoming personality!

🌟 Make this holiday season unforgettable by giving Cooper the loving home he’s been waiting for. Will you be the one to make his Christmas dreams come true? 🎁❤️

🎉 Spy’s Surgery Was a Success! ❤️🐾

We are thrilled to share that Spy had her eye surgery yesterday, and it went beautifully! She is now resting comfortably in her foster home, where she’ll continue her recovery until she’s ready to join her loving forever family.

This surgery has brought her so much relief from the constant discomfort she was in, and we are overjoyed to see her on the path to a pain-free and happy life.

However, we still need your support to fully cover Spy’s surgery and post-op care costs. We’ve made great progress, but we’re not there yet.

🐾 Here’s how you can still help:
💌 Donate here: https://donorbox.org/one-time-donation-129 – Don’t forget to put “Spy” in the notes!
📣 Share this post to spread the word!

Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far—your kindness and generosity have already made such a difference. Let’s keep the momentum going and make Spy’s holiday season as bright as her future! ❤️

Addison’s Christmas Wish: A Forever Home!

Say hello to Addison, a sweet and gentle girl with a unique touch—she’s a polydactyl, meaning she has adorable extra toes! Born 11/2/2023, Addison is a stunning DLH (Domestic Long Hair) with buff-and-white fur, and she’s ready to be your perfect holiday companion.

💕 Female/Spayed
🐾 Gentle, Loving, and Shy at First

Addison may be a little cautious at first, but give her time, and she’ll blossom into a loving, affectionate companion. She adores attention and quiet petting sessions and has lived peacefully with other cats and even a large dog.

🏡 Best Fit: A calm, quiet home with gentle, respectful children aged 6+. Addison thrives in low-stress environments where loud noises and sudden movements are minimal.

Recently, during our Whiskers and Words book club event, Addison came out of her favorite hiding spot to politely observe from a distance—proof she’s eager to come out of her shell in a cozy, loving home.

🌟 If you’re looking for a gentle, special kitty to make your holiday season brighter, Addison is the one for you! Will you make her Christmas wish come true? 🎁❤️

🎄✨ All Mildred Wants for Cat-mas is YOU! ✨🎄

This little forever kitten is ready to bring some holiday magic into your home! Though fully grown (born 12/3/2021), Mildred is as tiny as she is sweet.

🐾 DSH, Gray Tabby
💕 Female/Spayed

Mildred is a bird-watching pro who loves her catnip toys and gets along great with other cats. She’d do best with older, respectful children and might even warm up to a calm dog with the right introduction.

While she’s not a fan of being picked up, she’ll happily rub against your legs for attention and is learning to enjoy cozy lap time. Talkative yet independent, Mildred is the purr-fect mix of playful and chill!

🌟 Make this holiday season unforgettable by giving Mildred the gift of a forever home. Could she be your purr-fect present? 🎁❤️ Mildred is at the shelter, stop by during open house to visit this sweet little lady.
