Hi… my name is Takis.

Adopted October 1, 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 “the perfect love kitty” who purrs like a Ferrari (often just because you picked me up or because you looked at or talked to me!). She said that I’ll collapse against your leg or in your lap, and look in your eyes in a way that’ll totally melt your heart. As a 4-month-old kitten, you can be sure I’ll be happy playing with whatever’s around — and that always includes you!

Hi… my name is Mickey,

Adopted February 3, 2016

Given my basic sweetness, I know that it won’t take long for me to adjust to the sorrow of being relinquished by my dad after six years. Since I was apparently allowed outdoors (that’s a huge no-no for cats!), I’ve acquired a few issues that need treatment (which the cat care people and the vet got on right away), so once I’m better, I know that my old, playful and loving self will come to the fore. Although I’m not feeling tip-top at the moment, the volunteers say that when I’m being medicated, I “melt in their arms,” so you know that I’ve always been a lover at heart. I’m a delightful 6-year-old grey tabby boy who just needs time to recapture the joyful spirit that lives inside me.

Hi… my name is Miss Priss.

Adopted September 7, 2016

I may be named Miss Priss now but there certainly isn’t anything “prissy” about me! Well since my provenance is unknown, who knows, my name might well have been “Lover Girl” at one time! At any rate, for over a year I was roaming the Green Valley neighborhood where I was found, cadging food and water where I could, when a good-hearted lady finally took me in. She said that I was sweet and chatty as could be with her (but not her older cat — that’s why she didn’t keep me), adored being petted and scratched, had “neat litter habits,” and loved catnip toys and treats. So — rest assured that once this Torbie lady overcomes her initial shyness, I’ll be sticking to you like glue!

Hi… my name is Tarzan.

Adopted June 21, 2015

When asked to describe my personality, my mom said I was bold and outgoing, playful and kittenlike, but also quiet and laid back — so take your pick — I can be anything you’d like! My family is moving and living in a travel trailer for several months where there just wasn’t room for the (nasty!) resident cat and me. They were so sad to give me up as I was a birthday present for “my” 14-year-old girl, and the whole family was attached to me. They said I am a very sweet guy who deserves to have a happy, fulfilled life with a new owner who will appreciate me for the playful, curious boy I am. Oh, I also lived (and wrestled!) with a Shih Tzu, so I “do” (nice) dogs too!

Hi… my name is Harley.

Adopted August 31, 2015

Since I am ten years old, I come with FREE Vet Care for Life.

After ten years of living with three dogs and another cat that were beating me up (“it makes him reclusive and stressed and is just too unhealthy a living environment” my family said), they finally decided that I needed to find a place where I could be the only pet. Thank goodness! At heart I really am a sweet, gentle feline who relishes petting so I’d love to have the chance to show you the “real me” without the influence of other alpha animals picking on me! I’m a handsome, laid back 10-year-old tabby and white gentleman, who because of my age, comes with Free Vet Care for Life. Don’t you think that I deserve to be your one and only love after all I’ve been through? I sure do!

Hi… my name is Fraggie.

Adopted June 30, 2015

It might take you a bit to figure out why my siblings, Remy, Scrapper, Smidgen, and I are called the “Pisces Pieces” litter, but put your thinking cap on and it won’t take long (our mom was named Pisces)! Our human mom gave TALGV lots of information about us, and here’s the story on me: “Fraggie is a party boy – always active and ready to play with you and his siblings. He’s affectionate and the most purry of the litter and likes to be held on his back. But beware — he’s lightning quick and can be out the door in a moment if you’re not careful!” That’s probably all you really need to know about me except that I’m a little shorthaired classic “mackerel” tabby boy, and I’m available!

Hi… my name is Fenley.

Adopted June 27, 2015

I’ve discovered that chain link fences and cats just don’t mix! I was found wedged in one with a three-inch gash in my leg that TALGV has very kindly patched up, so I’ll be good to go in no time. I think I’ve had quite enough of the outdoor life to last for the rest of my nine lives, so I’ll be eternally grateful for a home where I can romp and explore without fear of something like that “getting me” again! I’m just a youngster at 18 months, and am a classic tabby and white girl who’ll undoubtedly be happy with a lap, a cozy bed, and a family (and maybe a feline playmate?) to help me while away the seasons in climate-controlled comfort!

Hi… my name is Leah.

Adopted November 2, 2015

I may hold the dubious record for cats “returned most times to TALGV” through no fault of my own! I arrived as a stray for the first time back in 2010. I was adopted shortly thereafter, but my mom died a year later. I was adopted again, but that person had “too many outside interests,” and I came back one more time. Then, three years ago I was adopted by a couple that is now moving to a place that doesn’t allow pets! All my families have said that I’m a loving, playful, gentle lady (albeit a bit shy at times), and since I’m a beautiful combination of dilute tortoiseshell and grey tabby, I have high hopes that this year will see me in my really, truly, honest-to-goodness finally “forever” home!
