Our cats are current on shots, are FIV/FLV tested and are only made
available for adoption if that test is
negative*. They are all spayed or neutered if of age. If not of age, a spay/neuter contract must be signed by adoptive parent to ensure the cats will be altered when they are of age. Our adoption fee for cats is $65.00. We do offer a 10% discount for senior adopters and senior cats. If you are interested in adopting a pet from us please check out our About Us page for information regarding our adoption process.

* There are times when we know enough about the history of the cats that we may only test one kitten in a litter rather than testing the entire litter. This may happen when we have information on the parents or the litter was bottle raised away from their parents and other cats.
Got your eye on a kitten below who hasn't been altered yet?
Ask us about our $25.00 spay/neuter rebate!!
This pretty girl is Corina! She's about 3 yrs old, spayed and up to date on vaccinations. She is very loving and good with people. She's a bit timid around other cats but could learn to co-habitate! This all-white, long haired kitty is BEAUTIFUL now but we actually had to groom her (that's not common for a cat!).
Meet Hollie! She's about 6 months old and a real love! She's friendly, purrs up a storm and loves being petted! A very nice person saw this little girl get hit with a chunk of snow from a snowplow. They couldn't stand it and went back to look for her only to have her run away...or so they thought! When they got home and parked in the garrage, disappointed and worried about the poor kitty, they heard meowing...Hollie had hitched a ride home under the truck!!! Not THAT'S what they mean by a cat having 9 lives, and she used atleast 2 of them that day!!
Meet Felicity! She's about 2 yrs old with medium length hair, spayed and up to date on vaccinations. From what I hear she's quite the jumper too, just ask our photographer!! Maybe she can jump right into your heart and find a lifelong home on your lap! Isn't she beautiful with her black nose and chin?
Meet Tigger! He's 10 months old and up to date on vaccinations and neutered. Tigger is friendly and loves to get his petting on! Don't you want to be Pooh to this Tigger?
Ooops, BUSTED !! It's not all about "puppy love" in foster homes, kitties can find love too. Apparently that's just what's happened with ole Chester and Ms. Marble! Yes, love has blossomed and there's no denying it! Chester hasn't found a sheriff yet, but seems he found a saloon girl! These two not only groom each other and snuggle, they're even starting to look alike (in the left forehead area..:) Chester is a 2 yr old yellow tiger and a great big lover. Ms. Marble is a 2 yr old calico who's not a petite thing herself.
This pretty little girl is Miss Hampton (she was found as a stray near Hampton Inn and face it, by the end of the year, name creativity is lacking!!), although Hampton is a nice name! She is a very friendly girl and about 1.5 yrs old. She is up to date on vaccinations and spayed.
Here's Peekaboo - She's a 9 yr. old female who is up to date on all shots and spayed. She also has multiple extra toes on each foot. Peekaboo was an owner surrender (person had her for 8 yrs. & then had child who was allergic to cats so Peekaboo went to live with a neighbor for a year & then was returned to the original owner because they were going into a nursing home. Now she's with us and looking for a place of her own. Don't let her age concern you, cats can live a long, long life! Peekaboo is very sweet & gets along fine with other cats.
Meet Snickers!! She is about 1.5 yrs old and is the mother to Cheeto, Riley and Bocce. She is a very nice kitty who gets along well with others. She is up to date on her shots and spayed.
And here we have Tip! This blue-eyed boy got his name because his ears and tail are tipped with orange. He too is about 9 months old, up to date on vaccinations and neutered. He is a beautiful and unique young guy who is looking for a loving.
Here come the younger ones......
This next cutie is Hudson. He was found, most likely dumped, on a rural road. He was in bad shape with several large, infected wounds, most likely from botfly bites. A kind woman took him in to the vet and then contacted us. We assume he was born mid-April 09 and is a fun-loving kitten who is happy to be healthy!!
This next kitty was found living under a porch in Berrien Springs with her sister. I guess they figured it was a roof over their heads! This is Jillian and we think she was born early April 2009 . She is spayed and up to date on all vaccinations.
Next we have Gypsy's babies! These guys were born May 15, 2009. They are Tiger, Saffron and Sunny, all males. These 3 remain after their litter-mates have been adopted. They are all neutered and up to date on vaccinatiosn.
