Iggy

Hi… my name is Iggy,

Adopted 8-25-17

As you might guess from my size (18 pounds!), my mom said that I “eat anything!” Well, I’m “big boned” too so I “carry it well!” Okay, enough with the weight-related adages, let’s get on to why I’m here! My mom was having some health issues so felt she wasn’t able to care for me any longer (sometimes just cleaning out a litterbox can be hard on people!). I had a housemate and got along pretty well, but in truth, I think I’d rather be top cat, because occasionally I was less than fastidious in my manners. Although I’m basically shy, mom said I love to be petted and have my back scratched and go crazy for catnip anything, so I’m hoping for one more chance to prove I can be your best buddy.

Blossom

Hi… my name is Blossom,

Adopted with Thomas 4-15-18

Quiet, playful, needy, shy – take your pick! Oh, there’s also loving, lovable, and snuggler, too! So no matter what your mood, I’ve pretty much got it covered! My mom lost her home and had to move in with family that were definitely not “cat people,” so she tearfully brought me and my housemate, Sabrina, to TALGV so we could be “rehomed.” When I was just a youngster, I had a severe respiratory problem that necessitated removal of one eye, but my other one sees just fine thank you (I personally think it adds a dash of panache to my already lovely visage!). I’m a 6-year-old girl who “doesn’t like big dogs or any aggressive people or pets” (well, really, who does?), so if you’re a “regular” person, I’m the one for you!

Amber

Hi… my name is Amber,

Adopted 8-24-17

There are just too many homeless cats and not enough shelters or adopters to give them all “happy ending” stories, but TALGV is doing its darndest to see that it can do that for as many as possible! Over the past year, they’ve taken a number of us from a shelter that’s closing and they’ve all been absolutely delightful, outgoing, loving felines. And I’m no exception! When I arrived, I was still nursing my (happily LAST!) litter of kittens, but now that they don’t need me any longer, it’s MY time to shine! I’m not really out of my “cat teens” yet at about a year old, so when you take me home, you can expect energy, curiosity (OK, cat curiosity knows no age!), and love galore!

Dudley

Hi… my name is Dudley (aka Rusty),

Adopted 5-27-17

There oughta be a law: whenever someone has to go into assisted living, they must bring their best friend with them! I’m going to be lobbying for that, but unfortunately even if passed, it’ll be too late for me! Mom loved me for three of my nine years, and said I was easygoing, affectionate, in good health, and loved to keep her warm at night. I’m sometimes shy with strangers (but you’d never know it by my behavior here!), and sometimes a “picky eater” (yes, lots of cats are picky eaters!), but I was wonderful company for her. It would make her so happy to know that I’d found a new loving home, so why not make her (and my!) dreams come true!

Bonkers

Hi… my name is Bonkers,

Adopted 1-18-17

“Bonkers is amazing with children! My autistic son loved the feel of him and was rough occasionally, but Bonkers was always extremely gentle and would actually allow my son to play with him for hours.” That’s what my people said about me, so I guess you can rightly say I’m a “therapy cat”! My dad also said that I loved laser lights, catnip, and my scratching post (in addition to petting and attention!). Sadly, my humans are divorcing; my mom moved to a no-pets-allowed apartment and dad is a firefighter who works long shifts, so I was left alone for way too long for a big (19-pound!) outgoing guy like me. Wouldn’t the full-on “Bonkers treatment” be something you’d like to come home to every day?

Chickasaw

Hi… my name is Chickasaw (aka Timmy),

Adopted 3-18-17

“My husband and I loved ‘the boys’ and took very good care of them. Then cancer took my husband and I now have to work five to six days a week, morning ‘til dark, and they are almost always alone.” I think my brother, Cheyenne, and I miss dad as much as mom does, and with her gone all day, we were pretty lonely guys, so it’s probably good that we got to come back to TALGV to find new homes. I love to be held and petted (mom said I drool beause I’m so happy!), and spend time with you. Why not make 2017 the year you add a little something special to your life?

Cheyenne

Hi… my name is Cheyenne (aka Gretch),

Adopted 3-18-17

“My husband and I loved ‘the boys’ and took very good care of them. Then cancer took my husband and I now have to work five to six days a week, morning ‘til dark, and they are almost always alone.” I think my brother, Chickasaw, and I miss dad as much as mom does, and with her gone all day, we were pretty lonely guys, so it’s probably good that we got to come back to TALGV to find new homes. Although I’ve had a genetic shoulder problem all my life, it doesn’t seem to bother me. I’m a peaceful, laid back guy who really enjoys a calm home (I’ve never been around kids or cats other then my brother – and I was the submissive one!), so why not make 2017 the year you add a little something special to your life?

Chester

Hi… my name is Chester,

Adopted 10-21-16

Chester is FIV positive; therefore, he comes with Free Vet Care for Life.

My “pluses” so far outweigh my one “minus” (I’m FIV-positive, so come with Free Vet Care for Life) that you’ll hardly even notice! My mom said that I’m quiet, laid back, playful, kittenlike, gentle and tolerant (pretty much a “normal” 5-year-old cat!) and handsome to boot! She said I love to play with toys, am very affectionate and calm and have “absolutely no bad behavior.” I am frightened of dogs, so I’d do best as an only feline (or a companion to another FIV-positive cat) and I’m sure I’d be fine with kids too. I’ve got many years ahead of me to live a happy, healthy life (just ask Tipsy, the FIV-positive TALGV spokescat – he’s going strong at 12!), so why not let me spend them with you!

Patches

Hi… my name is Patches,

Adopted September 23, 2016

There are different kinds of inheritances! The monetary kind is great, but to my mind, the feline kind is better and that’s what happened with my brother, Mel, and me. Our mom left us to a friend who had always thought we were totally wonderful (we are!), but after eight months, she just couldn’t keep us any longer. Truth be told, she did already have two other cats and three dogs (and a snake!), so I guess we were just a bit “over the top” for her. She said we were super loving, gentle, quiet, and very attached to each other since we’ve been together all our lives (so maybe we could stay together?). I’m an 8-year-old distinctively marked calico lady who’ll brighten any corner where you are!
