Hi… my name is Carmel (aka Socks),

Adopted January 6, 2016

My mom said that I’m a sweet, playful, and downright gorgeous lady who loves to be around her person. (Carmel was my name here at TALGV when I was adopted almost three years ago, but I was renamed, because, well, you can guess!) Unfortunately, when my dad died, mom really needed to get some semblance of order in her life and because of health problems, could no longer care for me (or my sister, Avila) like she had before. In my first home, my people trained me to sleep in a crate and I was okay with that, but I’ve learned to much prefer cuddling up with a human at night, so if you’re the kind of quite older person (no little kids please!) who likes a “bed buddy” (or two), I’m made for you!

Hi… my name is Cinnamon (aka Puss),

Adopted December 2, 2015

Comes with Free Vet Care for Life…

Since my mom adopted me from the Humane Society five years ago, she doesn’t know much about my past, but she does know that I’m afraid of brooms and spray bottles, so maybe I didn’t have such a good life back then! Well, I had a great life with her until she became disabled and couldn’t care for me any longer, so I have faith that there’s another quiet home with someone who wants a soulful and serene declawed (and beautiful!) lady like me. I’m old enough now to have Free Vet Care for Life, and mom says that I’m affectionate, smart, and “talk a lot,” so with me around you’ll never be lonely! With all those plusses, why not let me share life’s slower pace with you?

Hi… my name is Cali,

Adopted November 11, 2015

When you hang around places where “animal people” are, you’re probably going to get lucky and find a softhearted person to take you in! Well, that’s what happened with me, when I appeared at the stables where my rescuer rides — she just couldn’t leave without me! Although she couldn’t keep me forever, she did have me for six weeks and said that I’m totally curious, playful, and love chasing anything on the floor (toys, crumpled paper, pens, eraser tops, or even uncooked spaghetti pieces!). She said although I’m a bit independent, I’m very “people interactive” and like to check out laps (sometimes sleeping in them, sometimes not!) and give nose rubs. I’m a young “drop-dead-gorgeous” calico who’ll definitely charm the socks off you in about, oh, ten seconds or so!

Hi… my name is Baby Jane.

Adopted by TALGV volunteers November 23, 2015

You have to wonder about people! I lived with my family all my life, but when they decided to go away for the summer, I was unceremoniously dropped off at TALGV pretty much on their way out the door! Not a thought to finding a “summer sitter” — nope — just an inconsiderate “we’ve-got-our-lives-to-live-and-forget-the-cat” attitude! Okay, they did say I was a “good cat” — but I’m ever so much more than that! I’m a lovely 8-year-old calico/tabby mix lady who, although shy at times, is gentle and loving at heart and would love to spend the rest of my live proving that to you. If you’re the kind of person who wouldn’t think of “moving on” without taking your companion along, then I think we should meet!

Hi… my name is Nieve.

Adopted June 27, 2015

My Celtic name is Niamh (sounds like Nee ev). It means Bright Star. I come with FREE Vet Care for Life!

My mom left my housemate and me with her mother when she moved out of state, and we thought things would be hunky-dory until we realized that there was a service dog in the house (we really weren’t into any kind of dogs!). Unfortunately, in his eagerness to make friends, he was neglecting his responsibilities to his owner, so, long story short, I’ve got my paws crossed that someone will adopt me soon. I’m a sweet, healthy, low-key, 10-year-old lady (who comes with free Vet Care for Life) and am a real cuddler who likes to lick your hands like a dog and fetch little cat balls, so why not help prove that old age isn’t a disease and give me a new lease on life?

Hi… my name is Rudolpha.

Adopted December 26, 2014.

I was found by a cattle pond, alone, starving, and covered in ticks and fleas, but now I’ve been “debugged,” am gobbling down everything in sight, and am doing fine! Aside from being a very grateful little girl, now that I’m feeling better, I’m just as happy and playful as any kitten — we do have the ability to bounce back from adversity you know! Anyway, I’d really be happy to brighten your holidays and the New Year, so just hold me for a second and you’ll see how!

Hi… my name is Dandelion.

Adopted February 27, 2015

Here’s what the Cat Fancier’s Association has to say about Japanese Bobtails: “Full of energy, always playful, loving, endearing, and happy best describe their personality. They are very people-oriented and want to be the center of family life. They will watch TV with you, help you read the newspaper or a book, and send emails on the computer! When your front doorbell rings, they’ll go with you to greet your guests.” Because I was raised with a zillion other cats (whom I didn’t get along with!), right now I may need a bit of work in the socialization department, but the genes are there, and I know I’ll live up to them if you just give me a chance!

Hi… my name is Miko.

Adopted December 24, 2014.

Although I lived with my single, older dad for five of my seven years, his asthma bothered him the whole time, and lately it got just too much for him to keep me. The two of us led a quiet life, and although I was gentle and tolerant of kids and got along with other animals that visited, I think I’d really like to continue the tradition of just me and my person (or people!) living a laid back life. I’m a lovely calico lady who is a bit on the “plus size” (that could be remedied by fewer treats I’m guessing!) and it’s my dearest wish in life to spend the rest of it with you!
