Libra

Hi… my name is Libra.

For a relative youngster, I’ve led a pretty exciting life (and not necessarily the best kind of exciting!). A family in Sahuarita found me when I was about to have kittens, so they kept me until they were born and weaned and then brought us here to TALGV. Since we were living outside much of the time, we all contracted ringworm (and I have a scar on my throat from what might have been a dog attack), but after being treated for four weeks, we’ve all been pronounced healthy as can be, and I’m half-past ready to get on with my life in a safer, indoor environment! I’m a lithe, classic tabby and white girl, who is very friendly, outgoing, and love to play. I’d rather not live with dogs again though, so if you have a quiet home where it can be just you and me (and maybe another feline), that would suit me to a “T”!

Frankie

Hi… my name is Frankie.

Frankie has earned his Canine Good Citizen Certificate.

Adopted February 12, 2014

“Frankie is a super sweet boy who will lick you to death if you let him.” Nice intro, huh? I’m a Staffie mix who was adopted by my family a year ago and got along fine with their other dog until I decided I wanted ALL the attention, so that didn’t work out well for me! Here’s some of what my people said: “Frankie loves going out to the desert and being outside in general. He does very well with kids (ours are 18 months and 3) and is protective of them when we are outside. He should be the only pet in an active home, especially one with an outdoorsy male figure. He needs to be inside with people whenever possible, not left outside to his own devices because he gets bored and it hurts his feelings.” Oh, there’s lots more good stuff, so come for a “meet and greet” and see for yourself!

Smokey 2

Hi… my name is Smokey 2.

Adopted 3-23-18

I’ve been here almost six years and am soooo ready for a new (child-free) home! Some of the volunteers are enormously fond of me because I’m the first to jump onto their laps (and others not so much because I’ve nipped them – which is probably why I’m still here!). But I haven’t done that for ages, as they’ve learned that I only want so much petting and then I’m done (I purr plenty though just sitting in your lap). I prefer not to be picked up, but I’m really too heavy for that nonsense anyway! (Like humans, accessible food 24/7 and too little exercise are to blame for my girth!) So if you’d like to share your life with a handsome gentleman who doesn’t require much petting, come down and see if I like you.

Kiwi

Hi…my name is Kiwi.

Adopted May 23, 2015

I’m a beautiful young grey tabby lady, who has certainly been around the block a few times in such a short life. I was rescued in early 2010 by a wonderful lady who brought me to TALGV and there I gave birth to five fluffy little kittens. I was hoping that when that was over I could get on with my life and find my forever home. Finally I was adopted! Then it turned out my new mom didn’t really want a cat, except for having it sit in her lap, and a nice friend of hers brought me back to TALGV. She said that “it was not my fault!” I was welcomed back with open arms, but I’m really sad that once again I haven’t found my forever home. I am super outgoing and affectionate, and I’m really hoping someone out there will read this and give me a home!

Cheeto

Hi… my name is Cheeto,

Adopted with Li’l Pumpkin December 1, 2015

I’m a handsome, black-striped tabby guy, who, if I were a little more silvery would be known as a Silver or Blotched Tabby and very desirable as an American Shorthair. There were SOOO many kittens at TALGV when I arrived in 2011 that I kind of got lost in the shuffle and still haven’t made it to my forever home. I’ve made a lot of progress in the socialization department though, and my “BFF” (that’s “best feline friend”), Li’l Pumpkin, and I love to hang out together, so the volunteers would like us to be adopted together too (moral support, you know!). I’m certain that if you make the effort, you’ll be rewarded with two delightful (but undoubtedly always quiet!) companions. But hey! What’s wrong with quiet?
