Milano

Milano is searching for her forever home—could it be yours? While she may be petite in size, she has endless love to give. This sweet, sassy girl is ready to trade shelter life for a cozy spot by your side. Milano knows exactly what she wants, and isn’t afraid to tell you. She loves people and affection, but when she’s had enough she will let you know. She’s independent and doesn’t hesitate to take a little “me” time. During her time at the shelter, she has become more curious and ventured out to explore and ask for pets—she will even fall asleep in your lap if you let her. She can often be found sitting on one of the high perches in the cat room, looking like a regal queen. With patience, love, and plenty of treats, she’ll show you just how big her heart really is. Milano would likely thrive in a calm, quieter home with someone who understands her need for a little space now and then. If you’re looking for a loyal companion and appreciate that she will love you on her own terms, Milano just might be your perfect match!

Curry

A true cat person’s cat, Curry can be aloof at times but likes to be around people. This gorgeous orange tabby is full of mystery and intrigue, and can coexist with other cats. She is a current resident of our quiet room. She will come to wherever the action is, and will enjoy some pets, but she knows how to set boundaries and stick with them. She may give you a firm paw when she’s had enough. Treats are always welcome, and wand toys are sure to catch her attention. Curry would do best in a quiet home where she can be showered with love. Could that be you?

Stryker

Stryker is a 1-year-old bundle of energy and joy, bringing a playful spark wherever he goes. This beautiful tabby cat loves receiving attention, and his playful antics are a constant source of entertainment. This little explorer loves to investigate, and he’s always on the lookout for new things to pounce on or chase. Whether it’s leaping around in pursuit of a wand toy or running around with boundless energy, he always finds a way to keep things lively. Stryker is curious, sweet, and full of heart. He’d love a home with plenty of time for play. He’s ready to give and receive all the love he can!

Ball Park Frank

In foster

You’ll love this good-natured and playful orange tabby. Ball Park loves leaping after a wand toy (especially with a stuffed mouse on the end) or batting little plastic balls. He doesn’t mind being picked up for a good snuggle and he meows only for you. Yet he’s an independent guy that doesn’t need constant attention. He’s just as happy to lie near you for chin scratches or a good head rub. A sweet, sweet boy. He will need a pet parent with a little patience and a desire to help him with one quirk. He tends to sing “the song of his people” at night, though it has gotten better in his foster home. We’d love to see his continued progress in a forever home. Are you willing to consider adding this special boy to your home?

Misty

In foster

Misty has strong opinions and makes them very clear. Once she’s confident that you’ll respect her boundaries, she’s affectionate in her own way. She enjoys being scratched around her ears and chin and petted on her head and shoulders. When she has had enough, she lets you know by raising her paw or growling. Her favorite activities are climbing, eating treats, watching wildlife out the window, and lounging with her person. She would like a home with an experienced cat person who follows her cues and no other cats or small children.
