1. Yogi
When Yogi isn’t zooming around the house playing with his brother, he wants nothing more than to curl up on your chest and snuggle into your neck. He instantly loves everyone he meets. This boy craves constant human affection and will do anything to be involved in everything. That includes climbing people like trees! Because of this we have put nail caps on him. He knows now that he can’t climb people but he still likes to paw at our legs for attention. It’s very cute. He’s also very easy to put nail caps on, he just loves the attention. He should eventually grow out of the climbing though and no longer need the nail caps.

Because of his clinginess he would love a home where his person is either retired or works at home. However, if he were adopted with his brother Boo Boo, he would likely be ok with being alone during the day. He’s great around other cats and would likely do very well with children and dogs. He’s confident and curious and has very little fear of anything. Whoever adopts this precious little guy is incredibly lucky!

2. Boo Boo
Boo Boo is a quiet little guy but don’t let that fool you. He’s extremely friendly, curious, and outgoing. He’s obsessed with wand toys and can hear one being played with from anywhere in the house. He’s also fascinated by the vacuum and very curious about the dishwasher. He’s the kind of cat that tries to climb into everything. He’s very silly. He likes to cuddle on the couch or in bed, and when you pick him up he melts right into your arms. He loves wrestling with his brother and chasing his foster cat sisters around the house. He would really love being adopted with his brother. At the very least he needs one or two other cat companions.
Read more about Boo Boo
Boo Boo has FHV (feline herpes virus) which is very common among cats and not something that will affect his long term health. Stress or illness, especially when cats are young, can cause flare ups that result in cold like symptoms. They usually resolve in a week or two but for some cats like Boo Boo they can last longer. Boo Boo’s only lingering symptom is a weepy eye, but we are hopeful that once he settles into his forever home it will eventually go away. For some cats it can take many months to dry up. But not to worry, Boo Boo is very good about having his eye cleaned. In fact, he doesn’t have any bad habits that we’ve seen, he’s really just a very sweet, playful, and well mannered boy. He gets along very well with other cats and would likely do well with dogs and children too. Though the stress of a more active household might make his weepy eye take longer to resolve.

6. Jeremy
Jeremy is a sweetheart, and needs no invitation to get in your lap. That is his favorite spot. He is playful, loving anything with feathers and laser beams! He and his BFF, Beethoven, would love to be adopted together. Jeremy should be fine with dogs, as when he is at adoption and one wanders by, he doesn’t seem bothered. Kids would be great!

8. Sriracha
Meet Sriracha!
Just like his name, Sriracha brings a little spice and a whole lot of fun! This handsome orange tabby boy is full of playful energy and can often be found chasing toys, zooming around the house, or climbing to the top of his favorite cat tree to survey his kingdom.
Sriracha absolutely adores other cats and would thrive in a home with a playful feline companion. He was also raised with small dogs and has done well with respectful canine friends.
Read more about Sriracha
While he's curious and affectionate, Sriracha needs a little time and patience to settle into new surroundings. Once he feels safe, his playful personality shines. Because he can be startled by too much activity, he'll do best in a quiet home with no young children and an experienced cat family that understands shy cats and will let him adjust at his own pace.
If you're looking for a fun-loving companion who will keep you smiling with his playful antics and blossom with patience and love, Sriracha may be your perfect match.
Neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and flea treated.

9. Tabasco
Meet Tabasco!
Tabasco is a handsome brown tabby with adorable white paws and a gentle, sensitive personality. This playful young boy loves spending time with other cats and would thrive in a home with a feline friend to help him feel secure. He has also been raised around small dogs and has adjusted well to sharing his home with them.
While Tabasco enjoys playing and exploring, he is naturally shy and timid with new people and situations. He doesn't like to be chased or forced into interactions, so he's looking for a calm, patient home where he can build trust at his own pace. Because of this, he would do best in a home without small children.
Read more about Tabasco
Tabasco's ideal family will have experience with cats and understand that the most rewarding relationships are sometimes the ones that take a little time to blossom. With patience, love, and a predictable routine, this sweet boy will reward you with his playful spirit and quiet companionship.
Neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and flea treated.

10. Mr. Beans
Meet Mr. Beans!
Mr. Beans is a sweet, sensitive boy who is learning to be brave like a cheetah! While he may be a little shy at first, every day he grows more confident and curious.
His favorite things include wrestling with his kitty friends, chasing toys, and soaking up the sunshine from a cozy window perch. Mr. Beans gets along wonderfully with cats of all ages and has also adjusted well to living with a large, cat-friendly dog.
Read more about Mr. Beans
Because sudden movements and chasing can be scary for him, Mr. Beans would do best in a calm home with an experienced cat family who will give him the patience and time he needs to settle in at his own pace. Once he feels safe, you'll have a loyal companion who's well worth the wait.
He is neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, flea treated!

16. Stefan & Damon
Damon and Stefan are a pair of eye candies! These two handsome boys have beautiful markings and vibrant eyes that just tug at your heart. The tipped ears on them indicate they have been through a TNR program. While this program is great for managing cat populations, it doesn’t necessarily provide the best introduction to humans. While they have been gradually warming up to the idea that people aren’t so bad, naturally, they still have reservations. Once Stefan has warmed up to you, he loves to be pet behind the ears and will reward you with nonstop purrs. Damon will show his trust by coming up to you for treats and wet food, and with months of learning to let down his gaurd with his foster is just starting to enjoy being petted. They are very shy at first, but they are familiar with people and enjoy gentle care on their own terms. According to these kittens, a great building block for trust starts with tasty treats and play. Damon and Stefan will let their guard down a bit to play with wand toys or chase springs and toys that you toss for them. Damon prefers wand toys, Stefan LOVES the laser pointer, and they equally love chasing any toy you can toss.
Read more about Stefan & Damon
Damon and Stefan are looking for a loving home that understands very shy cats and has no stipulation on how long it may take for them to open up with their new person. Although they love cats and get along very well with them, they may have a much better chance at warming up to you if they are the only two cats. They wouldn’t make good cats for first time cat owners or families with children. They would do best in a calmer home with adults only that have previous experience working with very shy/feral cats. They are okay with a cat friendly dog. Potential adopters should have a good understanding of cat behavior and the patience to let them trust you at their pace. Potential adopters must understand that they must fully be committed to gentle and consistent effort.
These two have been in our adoption program for some time now and just looking for that purrfect person to offer them unconditional love in a forever home.
If you are interested in offering these 2 a home please fill out an online adoption application by clicking here or going to our website at www.catsupport.net. This is the first step in scheduling a meet & greet.
All of our cats and kittens have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and treated for parasites.

Bringing a cat home to your dog
Tell the rescue about your dog: their size, age and energy. A cat who has lived with a calm dog may still be nervous around a bouncy puppy.
Introduce them slowly. Keep the cat in a room of their own for the first few days, swap bedding so they get used to each other's scent, and then let them meet with the dog on a leash.
Make sure the cat can always get somewhere the dog can't reach, and keep the litter box and food bowls out of the dog's way.
