Meet Fielder (Your Future Couch Buddy!)



Fielder is a 9-year-old neutered gentleman who’s basically the feline version of a cozy Sunday afternoon. He’s a little shy at first, but once he decides you’re good people, he settles in with a mellow, friendly vibe. No drama, no chaos—just a sweet guy who likes quiet company.



He has lived with dogs in the past and did well, but he does have one firm preference: his litter box needs to be his and his alone. If another cat has used it, he’s politely out. So he’d be happiest as an only cat or in a home where he has his own spotless bathroom setup.



If you’re looking for a low-key companion who appreciates calm spaces, soft blankets, and a tidy litter situation, Fielder might just be your perfect match.

Come meet him—he’s ready to spend his golden years with someone who gets his gentle vibe. 🐾💛

Meet Tic Tac (4-years-old), a sweet and friendly cat residing at the local shelter. He's known for his charming demeanor, always eager to greet visitors with a gentle nuzzle. While Tic Tac loves attention, he does get overstimulated at times, so he'll need a patient owner who understands when he needs a little space. Adopting Tic Tac means giving him a forever home where he can share his abundant affection, on his terms. He's ready to be a loving companion and bring joy to his new family.

Tic Tac found himself in a spot of trouble, when he became overstimulated and bit. It will be important for his new owner, to understand, appreciate and respect the clues that Tic Tac displays, when his is ready for a break.
