I’m Jesse a big handsome tuxedo boy. I’m seven years old and I have a lot of stories to tell. My first family moved away and left me behind. Then some kind neighbors adopted me since I’m so lovable. Fast forward six years and THEY moved across the country and had to leave me here! Seems like the van driver didn’t want to listen to my commentary all the way to Illinois. Ok, I am pretty vocal I’ll admit. Maybe there’s some Siamese in my family tree, who knows? I’ve got a lot to say but I’ve heard some people find it charming. If that’s you, get me out of here! I’m lonely. But only for people, I’m not a fan of cats. I’m all the cat you need!

We are four year old sisters who are one half Kurilian Bobtail. That was our dad, and mom was a calico house-cat. Our foster mom had never even heard of that breed until today! She googled it.

We are both litter box trained and easy to have around. We have bob tails and beautiful markings. We’ve always been together but might consider going solo for the right home.

Russian Blue Alert!

Say Hello to Skye, our 2 year old Russian Blue Mix!

This lovely lady is Patchouli! She is a beautiful, five year old tuxedo with the silkiest fur and mightiest whiskers.

She also loves to climb around to the highest points in her environment to survey her kingdom. Bonus points if those high climbing spots are window-adjacent! Though she has lots of love to give and has a very friendly disposition towards everyone she meets, Patchouli is prone to overstimulation and will thrive in a lower traffic home without other animals or young children.

Got an extra cat bed and a big heart? I'm looking for a patient, loving person who will give me the time I need to blossom. I was rescued from under a house with my five kittens, and its been quite a journey. My foster mom says I'm the gentlest cat she's ever known — I would never bite or swat. For most of my nearly two years, I didn't know people could be a source of love and comfort. I was a devoted mom who always let my babies eat first and kept them safe when things got scary. Then something wonderful happened: I discovered pets, purring, and even laps! Im still learning, and I sometimes hide when I feel unsure, but Im doing it less and less. More and more, Im coming out to watch the household action and even join in.

Her foster home has a medium size dog and a small, older cat- she has strong boundaries with them but has been adapting to their presence over time.
