Seeking a Loving Home for Two Wonderful Cats - James and Alice.I am on a heartfelt mission to find a new, loving forever home for my two cherished cats, James (affectionately known as James Bond) and his sister Alice (Alice in Wonderland). James, an 8-year-old charmer, has a big heart and enjoys nothing more than to curl up on your lap (or strategically position himself on your feet) to purr contentedly. His sister, Alice, shares his affectionate nature and together, they make the ultimate companion duo.James and Alice are indoor cats who have been treasured members of our family, receiving the utmost care and attention. They were rescued as kittens and have since been living a pampered life filled with love and comfort. It is with a heavy heart that we seek a new home for them, due to circ*mstances beyond our control.We are looking for a pet owner who understands the responsibility and joy of caring for cats. It is crucial that James and Alice are adopted together.

Story

Didi is a 5 year old cat who I adopted about one month ago but sadly cannot keep due to moving. She was in a foster home before I adopted her, and she was abandoned by her previous owners in front of an animal hospital. She is very shy at first but warms up after a couple of days in a new environment and becomes affectionate! Didi is an absolute darling who loves attention, being petted, and being brushed. She likes to cuddle up next to her human and will meow / reach out with her paw to let you know she wants attention. She needs a quiet, peaceful environment to be comfortable. She is very calm throughout the day and then gets the zoomies at night, hopping and darting about my apartment. I believe she is a manx cat based on her smaller size and the fact that she doesn't have a tail, but a little stump like a bunny. Didi is a good eater who loves snacks, and is perfectly healthy based on her recent checkup and up to date on vaccines.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

My Staty is a gentle, affectionate and beautiful Tuxedo Boy. He is the most chill cat I have ever had. He is quiet and very good with, and open to the attention of other people (especially children). It is litterally breaking my heart to let him go. However, due to an overseas work assignment I am about to embark on in the coming weeks. I need to rehome him. I am not asking for a rehoming fee. I just want the peace of mind knowing that he will be going to the loving home he deserves. He has always been in his one cat home so I cannot say for certain how he will react to other cats. He is fixed and in good health. I believe he has all of his basic shots as he was almost a year old when I got him (he is 3 years old now). He loves to sit in your lap and just keep you company. I have also NEVER had any litter box issues with him. His is also not a picky eater. He comes with food bowls, food tray, a large litter box, a litterbox enclosure that contains his litterbox and a carrier.

Story

Ginger is an adorable female calico. She’s a very sweet, affectionate cat, although shy at first! She’s very cuddly, playful, and loves people.Ginger would thrive in a home where people can give her constant attention and affection. I have made the difficult decision to rehome her because she unfortunately does not get along with our dog who is a timid rescue.Ginger acts like a kitten despite being an older cat. She does have a thyroid condition that requires her to have medication in her food twice a day. She has a wonderful personality and I know she would be a great addition to any household.She gets along well with other cats, but I am unsure about whether she gets along with other dogs. Her interactions with my dog could be an exception.
