Lola

My name is Lola. I am a dainty little darlin who would love to be a stocking stuffer for some lucky person this year. I was found as a stray and am estimated to be 6 years old. Right now I am a little full around the midriff but maybe we can make a resolution to drop some extra pounds in 2017. Nobody wants to worry about calories when the holidays are here. I am the perfect size for apartment living and so far have been as quiet as a mouse in my foster home. I ride very nicely in the car and walk well on my leash. I will even let you dress me up. I am very good natured.

Muffin

Muffin is a bold 10-year-old girl with a lot of love to give. She's looking for a home to call her own where she can rule from a high spot near a window. Don't let her sassy face fool you (she's just missing a few teeth) - she loves attention and wants to be part of what you're doing. If you forget to keep petting her, she'll remind you with a wave or a gentle tap from her paw. She's quick with a purr and loves catnip, laser pointers, and being brushed.

Pistachio

Pistachio is a sweet 1-2-year-old boy who can be adopted with his brother Miko or on his own. Pistachio came from a home where the animals were not well taken care of, so he took some time to warm up to people. But now he knows how great they are and isn't looking back! He loves to follow his people around and get head rubs. He even sits up on his hind legs to beg for food! Pistachio would do well with another cat in the home but could also be adopted into an only cat home.

Miko

Miko is a very sweet and round 1 to 2 year old boy. Miko came from a home where he did not get a lot of socialization so he is still getting used to trusting humans. He sometimes forgets how great people can be so he needs a patient home that will continue to help him come out of his shell. Miko can be adopted on his own or with his brother Pistachio, but he would do best in a home with another social cat that can be his buddy.
