Notes from Noogie's caretakers:

Noogie and her brother, Munchie, just celebrated their first birthday. They are both shy until they learn to trust you. Then these two turn into purring, biscuit making lap kitties. They we get along with other kitties and cat-friendly dogs and need a quiet home with no children. Won't someone give us a chance? We have so much love to give.

Get to know Jilly, She is very pretty light gray and white. She loves affection from humans and older kitties. She does not like is when other kitties are  rushing her. Because she was roughly handled by some children, she can get a little nervous when there is chaos or someone grabs her too quickly. Once she trusts you, she'll climb in your lap and keep you company at night. She is looking for a lifetime home and family.

This funky mamma was an outdoor kitty who liked to be around people. She arrived at St. Francis Rescue when she was pregnant.
