Gris

Hi… my name is Gris.

Adopted September 23, 2015

Sometimes the best of intentions go awry. My folks had hearts of gold and, like lots of people, just couldn’t say “no” when a stray cat arrived in their yard. After they’d accumulated 20 of us (none neutered!), they realized that they needed help finding us safe homes. So TALGV’s Outreach Program came to the rescue, and we’re here now and ready for just that — homes of our own. My mom said, “Gris is very gentle. If you ask her if she wants love, she’ll throw herself down on the floor and you can pet her there or pick her up and set her beside you. She gets along with other cats, but especially adores Leonard so I hope they can stay together!” Won’t you please make that happen for us?

Scarlett

Hi… my name is Scarlett.

Adopted October 13, 2015

Although I was initially shy after my many-month sojourn living outside, I’ve become a very sweet girl who adores sitting in your lap and getting lots of love. The people who found me gave me a place to stay and plenty of good food for a while, but they had three cats and two dogs, and simply didn’t have the resources to accommodate another resident. Since I’ve been here, I’ve found that I much prefer the company of humans over cats (I’m such a tiny unassuming little thing that I’m easily intimidated!), so I dream every night (and during cat naps too!) of having a human all to myself. I’m a classic torti girl, about 13 months old, and hope that your search for the perfect companion will end with me!

M.K.

Hi… my name is M.K. (Miss Kitty)

Adopted December 24, 2014.

Here’s all you need to know about me: “This cat was a wonderful companion to her owner and would not leave his side. She brought a lot of joy to him, as he was a handicapped Viet Nam veteran who just passed away. She loves to sit and be petted and sleep wherever she wants (sometimes in a closet!).” All I can add is that I didn’t live with kids, but was okay with them when they visited (I played a tad rough sometimes though), lived with another cat that died a year ago, and don’t care for dogs that chase me (who would?). I’m a beautiful 3-year-old Torbie girl (a mix of tortoiseshell and tabby), who’d love to bring as much joy to you as I did to my dad.

Arrived December 19, 2014.

Oakie

Hi… my name is Oakie.

Adopted 11-9-16

Life’s ups and downs can be really stressful for us felines, and it took me quite some time to feel safe at TALGV. Frankly, I was really frightened upon arrival, but am adjusting nicely now. My mom said that I’m a sweet lady who gets along with adults and other cats (no kids), am “safe around birds” (in case you have a few flying around in your house), and that I enjoyed a spot of Ensure every day (we can share!). She said that I only ate dry food and that my belled collar was my “security blanket” talisman that kept me safe! I’m a sweet, tortoiseshell lady who’s recovering from the pain of losing the only home I’ve ever known, but with patience will adjust to a quiet new life with you.

Arrived November 9, 2014.

Sissy

Hi… my name is Sissy.

Adopted December 3, 2014.

When my dad adopted my best friend, Phantom, and me three years ago, he thought he’d be able to care for us forever. Life often interferes with our plans however, and now that he needs care himself, he wasn’t able to make that happen. It was just the three of us living happily quiet lives all those years, so I’m pretty sure that a peaceful home with not a whole lot of “action” going on would help me transition to my new circumstances with ease. I’m a classic tortoiseshell lady, and as is often characteristic of my breed, I’m a laidback, calm gal who likes life to be tranquil and relaxed. I know there are lots of places like that in Green Valley, so won’t you let me share one with you?

Arrived October 6, 2014.

Callie

Hi… my name is Callie.

Adopted October 12, 2014.

It would have been nice if my mom could have chosen an assisted living place that allowed pets, but I guess they’re few and far between, so here I am, looking for the lap I’ll spend the rest of my life on! I’m healthy as can be (but still come with Free Vet Care for Life!), and a real petite beauty — a Torbie, which is a combination of tortoiseshell and tabby. I’m also as sweet as can be, love to sleep in high places, and am just generally a laid-back sweetie. I’m hoping that’s just what you’re looking for!

Arrived August 24, 2014. Callie comes with Free Vet Care for Life.

Brie

Hi… my name is Brie.

I was adopted July 5, 2014.

Vanish

Hi… my name is Vanish.

Adopted 3-18-17

Sometimes when you think that your “lonely” cat needs a friend, things don’t always work out quite the way you’d planned. Our mom adopted my friend, Ninja, and me to keep her resident Himalayan company, but after two months, it was pretty apparent that he was perfectly happy being the only feline getting attention (we were both the object if his wrath), so I’m hoping that I can find another home where I’ll be the only kid in the house, or at least find one with another tolerant cat (preferably the first option though!). I’m young torti girl with a light blaze on my nose, and at my age, I’m still a kitten at heart who will entertain you no end. And, of course, if you’d like double the fun, there are many cats here who would be happy to accompany me to your place! Why not banish the summer doldrums with a perky, peppy pair of pals?

Arrived May 23, 2013

Gremlin

Hi… my name is Gremlin.

There are cats who like other critters and there are those who don’t. Were I the former, I’d still be in my home, but I didn’t get along with the other cats or dogs in residence (except for my sister, Mina, who I was quite attached to). Since Mina has been adopted, I’m looking for new digs where it can be just me and you. Although I’m shy at first, I do love people and am very loving at heart. Once I get to know you, I adore lying next to (or on) you and sometimes become so relaxed I actually drool I’m so happy! My people were sad to see me go because they said I’m a beautiful, affectionate young torti lady who loves toys, to be held and cuddled. So wouldn’t it be nice to have a warm and loving friend to spend your days with?
