Hi, I'm Mr. Crawly.
Are you an introvert looking for a similarly introverted furry roommate? Mr. Crawly came into the shelter as a sick stray and is retiring from the colony cat lifestyle. It’s been a strange adjustment for him; he doesn’t always warm to strangers right away, though he often likes a scratch on the head and a good treat bribe. Mr. Crawly has been enjoying exploring during his floor time and is curious about what’s happening around him. If it’s too much, he moseys on back home to his bed. We expect Mr. Crawly’s personality to continue to evolve as he becomes more comfortable out on the floor!
Mr. Crawly is part of our hospice adoption program as he needs to be monitored long-term for any changes in his head tilt/vestibular symptoms due to his cauliflower ear. He will likely require periodic ear cleanings. Mr. Crawly appears to be deaf as a result of his past issues as well, though he doesn’t let it keep him down! We don’t know how he feels about other cats, dogs, or human kids thanks to his background. He’s a bit of a mystery, but we know mystery fans are out there, so pick up this chunky guy if that’s you!
Hi, I'm Nami.
🧠Meet Nami
As the navigator of the Straw Hat Crew, Nami likes to know exactly what’s happening around her at all times. Curious, observant, and always ready to explore, she can often be found investigating a new toy, watching the world from a cozy perch, or racing around with her siblings during an energetic play session. Nami is playful and confident, but she also enjoys spending time with her people and will happily stop by for attention and affection. Her combination of curiosity, intelligence, and sweetness makes her a delightful companion who is sure to keep her future family entertained.
Hi, I'm Gus.
This beautiful feather duster tail comes as part of a two-purr-one! Broc and Gus are a bonded pair of male cats who came into the shelter after being left in the home. The change to shelter life has been hard for them, and they are still getting to know us (as we get to know them), though they’ve made progress in their brief time in this chaotic environment! Gus opened up first, and while he is still hesitant, he enjoys being pet and will rub up on the cage to solicit attention and give head butts. He reportedly enjoyed a good brushing from staff as well. He seems to be low-key overall but will almost surely be the more outgoing of this duo!
Due to their background, we are unsure how Broc and Gus feel about living with other cats, dogs, or small children. We think based on behavior so far that these mature boys would enjoy a more laidback home where they can adjust at their own pace. You never know though—introverted cats can surprise you once they settle in! Sometimes a shelter-shy guy is the most loving companion of all.
Hi, I'm Broc.
If you like ’em big and chunky, read on! Broc and Gus are a bonded pair of male cats who came into the shelter after being left in the home. The change to shelter life has been hard for them, and they are still getting to know us (as we get to know them), though they’ve made progress in their brief time in this chaotic environment! Broc is the more hesitant half of the pair, though even he falls victim to a good cheek scratch. He reportedly enjoyed a good brushing from staff as well. Broc seems to have a case of the shelter-spookies and we believe he will open up quite a bit in a mellow home.

Hi, I'm Ford Ranger.
Hello, ladies! My name is Ford Ranger, and while I arrived at the shelter as a stray with very little known about my past, I’ve made one thing crystal clear about my future: I am looking for a home where the feminine energy is strong. I am a certified Girls’ Guyâ„¢. The female staff here? Obsessed with me. Me? Equally obsessed with them. The men? Well… let’s just say we’re still in the “it’s complicated” stage of our relationship. I do require someone with breed experience. I’d prefer an adult-only home who understand that trust takes time and good things are worth waiting for. Once I decide you’re part of my inner circle, though, prepare yourself. I become a world-class cuddle enthusiast. Despite weighing considerably more than a Chihuahua, I firmly believe I am lap sized. This is not up for debate. I also have a playful side and enjoy having fun with my people. What I need most is a family willing to provide structure, positive reinforcement training, and consistency while I continue building confidence and learning how to navigate the world. So, if your household is giving “women supporting women” energy, if your playlists occasionally feature girl power anthems, and if you’re looking for a loyal companion who wants nothing more than to adore his favorite people, we should probably meet.

Save A Life By Fostering
Fostering saves two lives – the life of the animal in your home and the one we now have space for in the shelter. Our foster families create the capacity for us to care for more animals, and for pets struggling in the shelter environment, a foster family’s loving home can make a life-saving difference. Join our foster team to help pets heal, grow, and prepare for their forever home.
