Hi… my name is Starlight,

Adopted May 29, 2016

Thanks for looking at my pictures. My biography is under construction. Please stop back again to read about me or… even better… stop in at TALGV to meet me soon. Kennels are open 10-2 every day.

Hi… my name is Riley,

Adopted 10-24-16

Lao Tzu said, “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step,” and that’s what has happened for my friends, Mango, Moses, Bookstore, Ben, Petro, and me. Although our starting point wasn’t exactly that far away, we did come quite a distance in order for TALGV to save us from a shelter that is closing. It’s taking us a while to settle in after our long trip, but if you just spend a few minutes with us, you’ll see how much we’re all longing for human companionship and interaction – especially that wonderful ear and chin scratching! And purr? Well, let me tell you! We’re all “yearlings” who have tons of time ahead of us to be able to fill your heart and home with love – one purr at a time.

Hi… my name is Chad,

Adopted with Chase4-1-19

So far, life hasn’t been a big bowl of cream for my brother Chase or me. After our dad died, someone thought they were doing a good deed by leaving us outside and feeding us, but after a few months, we became more defensive, as there were so many threatening things out there. Once upon a time I was a very sweet guy though, and with the help of the volunteers, I’m coming around. I love to be brushed and have my head scratched and will happily take a treat from you, so I’ll bet in a nice quiet home the “old me” will come to the fore. Everyone feels that is would be easier for us to adjust if Chase and I were adopted together, so this is my plea for you to give us a chance!

Hi… my name is Caramel,

Adopted December 11, 2015

Since my rescuers had two dogs and a bird and were allergic to cats, it was really grand of them to have kept me for two weeks anyway! But they said that during that time I was very lovable with both adults and kids, so that may have made it a smidge easier! It’s obvious that I’ve been someone’s friend once, since I’m an outgoing guy who loves being “messed with,” and it’s also evident that I’d run into a cactus or something pretty scratchy, as my nose had sores and scratches all over it, but happily they’re healing well now. Practically any cat with orange tabby in it is likely to be “outgoing,” and I’m no exception, so why don’t you make sure that I’m “going out” with you!

Hi… my name is Paul,

Adopted November 17, 2015

Despite my current anxiety about my life’s changes (my mom passed away recently), her daughter said that although I’m a bit shy with people at first, once I get to know you, I’m a real sweetheart and a love. Like many of my breed I can be a smidge independent, too! I’ve been living with my siblings, Lucy and Carlos, and adore them mightily, so staying with one or both of them would be SO nice (and make our transition into a new home a lot easier!). I’m a gorgeous flame point Siamese mix who loved sleeping with my mom at night, so if you’re looking for a bed partner of the feline kind to purr sweet nothings in your ear, I’m your guy!

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 Brielle,

Adopted March 25, 2016

Since I’ve lived with twelve other cats and three dogs, you know I’m a pretty flexible feline! All of my tribe came to TALGV after my mom went into a nursing home. Because I’m on the shy side, I’m feeling a bit insecure at the moment and spend a good deal of time in a “cat cube” checking things out. My buddies are keeping me company though, and are always willing to climb in and snuggle with me. I’d love to feel safe again in a quiet home with someone who’ll have patience while I get used to my new surroundings. I might spend a few days under a bed, but my sweet, loving personality will eventually shine through! Perhaps you’ll also consider one of my snuggle buddies to keep me company? (Swoosh, Muggles, Dundee, Casper)

Hi… my name is Tinsel.

Adopted April 4, 2016

If you’ve ever had the privilege of being owned by an orange tabby, well, you’ll know how totally irresistible we are! A woman in Elephant Head had been feeding some “community” cats in her area when she discovered that I was not the least bit feral, she decided I needed a more protected life. They also found that I’d been microchipped, but that didn’t lead anywhere, so here I am in all my easygoing, affectionate glory waiting for a “ginger cat person” (or anyone else, for that matter!) to come along and fall in love. I get along great with everyone,  and am eager to spend all the rest of my nine lives making your life happier than you ever dreamed!

Arrived December 20, 2014.
