Tom, domestic shorthair mix

Tom is looking for a dog-free forever home. He has been vaccinated and neutered. He's mastered his house-training etiquette. Tom is a special needs pet, so please inquire about his specific care requirements.

Tom's current caretakers say:

Don’t let that grumpy face fool you as Tom is the biggest cuddle boy ever. Tom came from the Covington streets at about 12 years old, unfixed and with a damaged ear. All he asks for is a comfy home with no dogs and lots of canned food. He is FIV positive.

Notes from Georgette's caretakers:

Georgette has a precious meow that lets you know she wants more attention. She loves being petted and loved on and offers purrs and head bops in exchange for them. Georgette is pretty scared of other cats, so she would do best in a home where she is the center of attention.

Ghost, domestic shorthair

Ghost is a male domestic shorthair cat currently residing at OAR.

He has been vaccinated and neutered. He has mastered his house-training etiquette.

From Ghost's current caretaker:

Ghost is very talkative, and he likes to play. He loves to have another cat to wrestle and chase around. He enjoys any toy that has a string too. Ghost keeps more of a human schedule. He loves to play all day and sleep with his people during the night. His favorite nighttime sleeping spots are cuddling right next to you or by your legs. Ghost also loves to be petted. His foster mom noticed that he is startled if you approach him from his right side because he doesn’t see your hand coming toward him. Ghost came to OAR with some hair thinning most likely due to stress. Fortunately, his beautiful coat is already starting to grow back.

Julia, domestic shorthair

Julia is a charming female domestic shorthair cat staying at Louie's Legacy Animal Rescue.

She has been vaccinated and spayed. She has mastered her house-training etiquette.

Here's what Julia's friends at Louie's Legacy Animal Rescue think of her:

Julia is a two-year-old girl who just wants to be where the people are. Her favorite thing in the world is to rub up against someone and receive love and attention in return. If you want an affectionate cat, Julia is the girl for you. Julia is currently being fostered in a home with other dogs and cats, who she's unsure about. With time, she will probably come around, but her foster parents think she would prefer being the only pet so she doesn't have to share the attention.
