Hubie can be a little unsure and fearful at first, so he'll need someone who will give him time to settle in and feel safe. Once he's comfortable, you'll get to see what a wonderful, funny, loving cat he really is. He would thrive in a home where he can relax, roam, and just be himself.

He loves sleeping near his person, and one thing is certain—you will NEVER miss breakfast with Hubie around! He takes his morning meals very seriously.

Hubie is indoor only and lives in Damascus with his family. Hubie's rehoming fee is $150

And then there's the 8 o'clock hour! That's when Scotland gets his zoomies and shows off his silly, athletic side. He's agile, playful, and so much fun to watch.

Scotland can sometimes get a little overstimulated with affection, so he appreciates gentle head pets while you get to know his boundaries. He's not an aggressive boy—he just has a lot of love and excitement packed into that handsome body!

He would be happiest as the only pet in the home, where he can be the center of attention and your one and only feline companion.

Scotland really is a go-with-the-flow kind of guy. He's affectionate without being clingy, independent without being aloof, and just an absolute joy to have around.

I have been known to nibble on toes and am a great lap companion. I don't have any dog experience, well, or cat experience for that matter. You really only need one cat anyway, right? I have lived an indoor life and that suits me just fine. I am current on vaccines and microchipped and I am very good with my litter box.

Sadly, Rocky's owner is moving and will be staying with family who have dogs that aren't friendly with cats. As much as his owner would love to keep him, it just wouldn't be a safe situation for Rocky.

At 8 years old, Rocky still has plenty of playfulness and affection to share. He's not asking for much—just a peaceful home, someone to chat with him, a little playtime, a warm lap to sit on and plenty of those head scratches he loves so much.

Rocky lives in Tualatin with his owner and his rehoming fee is $100. Indoor only.

One of Mimi's sweetest habits is curling up beside you when you lie down. She loves sleeping next to her person, just like a warm, cuddly stuffed animal.

Mimi is litter box trained and spayed and would make a lovely companion for someone looking for a playful kitty who also loves to snuggle.

Millie has been an indoor/outdoor kitty, but we think she would adjust very nicely to being indoors full-time, especially with a sunny window to call her own. She would be happiest as the only cat in the home and would prefer a home without dogs.

Millie is litter box trained, up to date on her vaccinations, and even had a dental cleaning last year. Millie's rehoming fee is $50 and currently lives in Grants Pass. Her rehoming fee is $50.

Yoki would need to go to a home without cats as he prefers to be “the baby” and doesn’t want to share his parents’ love with another cat. He has not been around dogs, but I’m assuming he’d still prefer to live with no other cats/dogs. We have 6 cats at home and Yoki deserves to be somewhere he will be spoiled with love and attention and not have to compete so much for it with other cats.

Knowledge of the physical needs and personality traits of Sphinx cats is expected prior to inquiring about adoption. Yoki lives in Clackamas with his family and is indoor only. His rehoming fee is $475.

Peppermint Patty is very sweet, curious, playful, and affectionate. She loves to explore, still enjoys playing, and absolutely loves to cuddle when she feels comfortable. She’s also wonderfully self-sufficient and has such a gentle, independent personality. Patty has lived with another cat and was ok after introduction but her experience with dogs is mixed so we would suggest no barking aggressive or "busy" dogs. She has lived with older children and enjoys their attention.

Peppermint Patty's adoption fee of $120 includes spay, microchip, worming and flea treatment, current vaccines, and negative FIV and FeLV test. She will be ok as an inside cat with supervised outside time but prefers indoors only.

I do ok with cats, so it might be nice to have a cat buddy if you have one of those job things. Of course, slow introductions are always good. I don't have any dog experience, so we can skip that. I have been an indoor only girl and that suits me just fine. I will be brought current on my RCP vaccine and microchipped as a part of the adoption process. Oh, and I am very good with my litter box

These two share a particularly sweet bond. Every morning when they get water, Pepper "bathes" Jon by carefully grooming his fur—a little ritual that shows just how connected they are. They truly enjoy having each other and are happiest together.

Their family has welcomed a daughter, now 3 years old, and, as life has changed they have realized they can no longer give Jon Snow and Pepper the time and space they deserve. This is a very difficult decision and they are hoping to find a loving home where these two can remain together and be cherished for the rest of their lives.

Jon Snow & Pepper must be adopted together. They would love a home where they can relax, play, explore, and continue their lifelong friendship with plenty of love and cuddles. This pair lives in Vancouver with their owners and their rehoming fee is $50.

Oliver does have anxiety from being abused in his first home, so he needs someone kind, patient, gentle, and respectful of his boundaries. He may defend himself if he feels threatened, but with trust and security, this quirky little guy has an incredible amount of love to give.

He’s being rehomed because of a major move to Arkansas and a schedule that would leave him alone around 12 hours a day. His family wants something better for him—a home where he can have more companionship and feel safe and loved. Oliver isn’t looking for just any home. He’s looking for HIS PERSON. If you are someone who will laugh at his antics, appreciate his big personality, respect his boundaries, and love him for exactly who he is - then he is a cat for you!

Oliver is indoor only and his rehoming fee is $25. Oliver lives in Richland with his owner.

Both girls are playful, affectionate, and full of personality. They love toys, enjoy being brushed, and have the cutest little chirps and silly flops that will make you smile. Dolma is especially fond of cuddling and hanging out with her people, while Grape Leaf sometimes prefers a little quiet time to herself.

One of the nicest things about adopting these sisters is that they always have each other for company. They play together, nap together, and keep each other entertained when their people are busy.

Dolma and Grape Leaf have been through so much together, and we want their next chapter to be a happy one—with a family who will love them both for the rest of their lives.

Dolma and Grape Leaf are 3 years old, indoor-only, and litter box trained. They currently live in Portland with their owner. Their rehoming fee is $100 for the pair, and they must be adopted together.

Stormy enjoys the little things. She likes helping open packages with you and loves jumping into boxes. One of her favorite games is playing in her tunnel. If you gently stroke the outside of the tunnel, she loves following your hand from the inside.

Stormy is happiest as the only cat and would do best as the one and only. She is gentle with children and loves having her people around. She is an indoor-only cat and enjoys being cozy and comfortable. At night, she likes to sleep at the edge of the bed by your feet.

One thing to know about Stormy is that she needs to stay well hydrated because she can develop urinary crystals if she doesn’t drink enough water. We’ve found that mixing Churu with water is an easy way to encourage her to drink, and she loves it! With this simple routine, she has been doing great and has not had any recent issues.

Stormy is a loving companion with a sweet personality. She enjoys attention, being around people, and having a place in the family. Stormy is indoors only and lives in Portland with her owner. Her rehoming fee is $50.

I am very much a lap cat and am very playful. I am quite skilled at hunting my toy mice and very fun to watch me on my quest. I have lived an indoor only life and that suits me just fine. I am microchipped and very good with the litterbox. I will be brought current on the rcp vaccines as a part of the adoption process.

Jasper would thrive in a home where he can be the center of attention. He's great with children but would do best with older kids who understand his boundaries and won't chase him. He has lived successfully with another cat and may do well with a feline companion, though he has limited experience with dogs.

Jasper is neutered, up to date on his vaccinations, and has a sensitive stomach that is well managed with a fish-based diet, regular wet food, and a daily probiotic. Jasper lives in Beaverton with his family and his rehoming fee is $25.
