Every adoption means one more happy ending and the opportunity to help another animal in need.Congratulations to all our adopters, and thank you for choosing adoption! You didn’t just adopt a pet. You changed a life. ...

Our cat intake is currently CLOSEDWe’re sharing cats and kittens. Some are ready for adoption, some looking for foster-to-adopt homes, and others are a tad too young and coming soon after their vet appointment. Details of each cat listed under their photo. Please take a look and share to help us get them seen! Cats are often overlooked, and one share could make all the difference.Help us find them homes so we can make room to help the next ones in need. We are looking for a foster to adopt homes in Central or SE Ohio so we can assure veterinary care is completed. If you are interested in one of our cats, please apply using the link in the comments below. ...

Pending Adoption! Thank you for all of the shares Prince Harry received a record number of applications for a kitten!!This little guy was found in the middle of the woods at only 4 weeks of age. No doubt dumped. His foster has called him Chuck. We aren’t sure that name fits this most regal, long-haired, majestic boy. Like royalty! Maybe Prince Hairy of Junction City. This cutie patootie is feline negative, and had first vaccines. This boy is also litter trained and a real affectionate sweetheart. We are looking for a foster to adopt home in Central or SE Ohio so we can assure his veterinary care is completed. If Prince Hairy aka Chuck is the apple of your eye, please apply clicking the link in the comments below. Please, please share!! ...
