Lucy is a super sweet kitty, who absolutely loves her people. She gets along very well with other cats, but is perfectly happy being an only kitty.

Mitzi, domestic shorthair

Mitzi is a winsome female domestic shorthair cat currently residing at Walter Rescue.

Mitzi loves other cats and dogs. Walter Rescue, however, recommends she be placed in a home without small children. No need to worry: She's already house-trained. She's already been spayed. Mitzi is a special needs pet, so please inquire about her specific care requirements.

Here's more about Mitzi: 

This kitty is very timid and cautious, so she needs a person who is willing to work on taking her out of her shell.  She loves head scratches and gives great headbutts. She would do best in a relatively quiet home with a cat-experienced person. She would likely do OK with a cat-friendly and calm dog who will mostly leave her alone. She loves her new indoor life, and enjoys watching the birds from sunny windowsills.
