Griffin is the type of cat that anyone could love, but he is looking for a home with someone who can see how unique he is! With his devilish good looks, this "Brooklyn Blue" is a boroughbred sweetheart with a confident attitude, who is ready to melt into your bed or couch to keep you company, will make an appearance on the Zoom call, and is chill with other cats and dogs. He is a playful guy with a sporty streak, so get ready for lots of playtime to keep him entertained. But after a workout, he's ready to chill out with you and keep you warm all winter long.

Finley is the calmest, sweetest cat you could find. He is a cuddly boy who has a dream of a purr, likes play time and pets, and of course, any treats and snacks you want to give to him. He is a perfect cat for the household ready to bring on a first or second cat, and is a mature, elegant, yet goofy addition to the family. His foster says he is the chillest cat she's ever had, and we believe he'd do well in a household with kids, cats, or dogs, given the proper introductions.

Birthdate: 10/5/22Breed: One of a kindWe feel no shame in saying that we've found your thrill and it's Cat's Domino!First off, this cat has an amazing name, and here’s your tiny history lesson on it. “Cats Domino” is a playful nod to Fats Domino, the legendary musical artist from the 1950s known for hits like “Blueberry Hill” and “Ain’t That A Shame.” Fats was a larger man, and our guy Cats weighs in at a solid 15 pounds. Combine that with his black-and-white coloring, just like a set of dominoes, and you’ve got one of the most perfectly named cats we’ve ever met.But his name is only the beginning of his charm.
