Cali and Lucky came to the shelter when their owner passed away very suddenly in a freak accident. They are true sisters, littermates who were adopted as kittens and have remained close as they matured. Cali was adopted first, then her previous owner went bad the next day to bring Lucky home as she couldn’t stand separating them. The sisters must be adopted together. Both are super cuddly and good with other cats, dogs, and kids. Lucky is the more outgoing of the two. She is a complete ham and acts more like a dog than a cat sometimes. She loves to play and will follow you around the house. As soon as she can, she takes the opportunity to jump into your lap and smother you in kitty kisses. Cali is a more timid and takes a few days to get to know new people, but once she does, she is a huge love bug and snuggler. Because Cali and Lucky must be adopted together, there is a special adoption fee of $100 for the pair.

Opehlia has has a very rough few months. She was surrendered to the shelter and then adopted out to a nice family, but they didn’t quite understand Ophelia‘s needs. The household was too noisy for her and she was given full run of the house much too soon, before she could get comfortable with her surroundings. One day she got scared and took off into the attic, and ended up beneath the floorboards. She stayed there for weeks, only venturing out for food and a little bit of water. She didn’t want to stay in the attic but she was too afraid to come out, until one day she was a brave girl and went into a trap that was set out for her. She was brought back to the shelter, and volunteers cleaned up her white coat- now stained a sooty gray. With a little extra attention, Ophelia has gotten comfortable again and is eager to begin life in a home that is right for her.
Ophelia would be happiest with an older person- someone quiet- and without children in the household. She wants soft things to lay on and quiet people. She’s a ‘table top’ cat in that she likes to sit on small tables in main rooms. She doesn’t REALLY like to hide when she feels safe. Ophelia has stolen the hears the shelter volunteers who have worked with her and also counseled the family in rescuing her from the attic. She is sweet underneath all the fear, and patiently waiting for quiet home where she can watch birds from indoors and take naps on a very special lap.

* Declawed
Klowee is a long haired, maybe with some Maine Coon in her lineage. A natural beauty, this elegant lady would be comfortable on any high-fashion catwalk with her long, graceful body and magnificent coat. Look closely at her paws beneath all that fur and you’ll find that she’s declawed. Therefore, Klowee must be a strictly “indoor only” kitty, as she has no defense. This queen of feline whim would rather be basking in the soft, filtered light of a windowsill anyway. Klowee expects all the attention herself and would be happiest as the only cat in a home.

Severin is a beautiful lady with a streak of independence who is awaiting a home where she is allowed to be herself. Severin wants affection and is generally sweet, but when she’s had enough or thinks she’s being pushed around, she can get swatty or give a warning nip…not hard, but enough to tell you to stop whatever you’re doing. With this in mind, Severin wouldn’t be a good choice for a family with young children. Older children would learn to read her signals and know it’s time to find something else to do.

Snickers is the sweet mother of all of the “candy kittens.” She was surrendered with five of her kittens from two separate litters. We have no idea how many kids she has had in all, exactly what happened to the others, nor all the fine details of her all-too-common story. We do know that Mama herself is just 2 years old– she had her first litter when she was not much more than a kitten herself– and the dear girl is worn out. Snickers has been the nurturer and now needs to be nurtured. It’s time for this loving mom, whose mothering days are finally done, to find someone willing to give her a chance at the good life she deserves.
