If you look real close at my pictures, you will see why the staff knew that I was spayed when I came through the door as a stray cat. My left ear is tipped - which is the method most often used in clinics for feral cats, to let their caregivers know that they have already been spayed or neutered. I have been given the name, Cindy, here at the shelter and I am only about 1-2 years old. I may be a little more shy and reserved than some of the other cats around here, but I am definitely not a wild cat! I was checking everyone out the other day and also enjoyed some loving from the volunteers! I really don't miss the tip of my ear, but I do miss being part of a home and a family. Won't you please come to meet me today?

I think that one of the girls must have been thinking about a steaming mug of hot cocoa when they named me, Nestlee!! LOL!! I am just a young boy that is about 5 months old and I am really not liking this sittin' in the cage stuff! I am all about playtime and it is pretty darn hard to do much playing in a little square box! Since I was brought here as a stray, no one really knows my background. Some people say that I might be lacking in some social skills and was maybe separated from my Momma and siblings too soon. I have been working real hard to learn how to get along with everyone and I am already making a lot of progress! I really want to have a long and happy future in my new forever home!

I have heard that one of the definitions of Solstice, is a turning point. Since this is now my given name, I am hoping that being here at the shelter will lead to a much better and brighter future. I am still just a kitten at only 5 months old and came from the house with many, many cats. After having to compete with so many others for attention, it would be great to be in a home where I could get all of the loving!! I am a sweet and playful little boy that adores people and wouldn't mind sharing the love with another playmate or two. Why don't you come to meet me today!!

My name is Lily and I am a petite girl with a cute smooshy face. Right now I am so frightened because my world has been turned upside down. I was adopted out as a kitten and lived with a family for 2 years, but they decided they had too many pets and couldn't keep me. I am a little bit shy, but if you give me lots of TLC I will love you lots. I am a very sweet girl who is already spayed and litter box trained. I lived with other cats and dogs and I didn't mind them one bit! Do you have room for me in your home? I promise I won't cause a bit of trouble!

I have to say that I just can't picture myself swinging through the jungle on a vine. It would just be soo undignified!! For some unknown reason I have been christened, Tarzan, by the shelter staff. If you can just look beyond my silly name, you will see that I am one awesome cat! I have that big tom cat head and an even bigger purrsonality! They think that I might be around 5 years old, but since I was a stray my real age is a mystery. I am a super friendly guy that just thrives on attention from people. I am way too big to be cramped into this little cage, with so little time to stretch and explore. I can't wait to start my new life in a real family, where I can be loved and adored every single day!!

I keep hearing the words, "how cute!" and "adorable" every time someone walks by my cage. My name is Munchkin and I am a male kitten that is only about 10 -12 weeks old. I am a lucky little boy since I get to share a bigger pen with another boy kitten named, Joshua. He told me that he was ever so glad to have some company!! We have been snuggling together ever since we met and would love to be BFFs!! We would keep you endlessly entertained, laughing and smiling every day!! We could also be your special furry cuddle bugs to keep you warm on those cold winter nights. Will you be the one to make our dreams come true?

I just got moved up to adoption and was shocked to see so many of my brothers and sisters here too. When I saw that Rusty and Sunny were still here, I became really worried. The problem is that the three of us look almost identical. My name is Russell and I am totally baffled. How could anyone pass up such incredibly handsome and friendly boys such as ourselves? We are all outgoing, social, get along with other cats and are just - well - awesome!! We are all neutered too so you don't have to worry about setting up a surgery appointment. So what are you waiting for people? Get on in here today and adopt yourself a new best friend for life!!

Hi there! My name is Joshua and I am an adorable three month old black male kitten! I have been getting plenty of attention since I came to the shelter and the girls that work here have been so wonderful! They noticed that I kinda walk funny and they are not sure if this is from something I was born with or an injury. Whatever the case may be it does not stop me from having fun! I am just sweet as pie and everybody loves to give me hugs and kisses! I heard that 3 other kittens were adopted yesterday - why not me? Right now I am in a pretty big cage all alone and I sure would like to have some company. Even better would be if I can get out of this cage for good and be your special furever friend!

Well, I guess that photo lady managed to snap a picture of me when my head wasn't buried under this lady's arm!! My name is Marie and I am a beautiful young lady that is about 1-2 years old that came here as a stray. You just can't even imagine how scary it was for a girl like me to be homeless out in the fields and forests! I was definitely used to the cushy life of an indoor cat and I did not have a clue about how to find food or a safe place to sleep. Thank goodness someone found me and brought me to the Meyers Animal Shelter! I have actually been here for over 2 long months now, but only recently got moved up to the adoption room. I am still very shy and scared but I really love people! Snuggling in the arms of a volunteer is exactly what I need to make me feel better! Of course the best thing of all, would be for my new forever family to walk in here today!

If I don't look too happy in my pictures, it is for a good reason. My name is Coral and just a few weeks ago my life was turned upside down. Our family was falling apart and our house had to be sold. A bunch of my brothers and sisters have already been brought to the shelter, some have been adopted and even more are on their way. I am one of three tortoiseshell coated girls that are in adoption right now and we are all sisters. It can be hard to stand apart and make yourself unique when you look so much alike. The fact of the matter is that we are all young and friendly little girls that get along with other cats. I am too young to be spending my life sitting in a cage. Please have a heart and share your home with a new forever friend! ?

I am sure glad to be in here where it is nice and warm with plenty of good food!! My name is Michelle and I am just a young girl that is maybe 8-10 months old. I came here as a stray from Gettysburg and let me tell you that life on the streets is no picnic!! I obviously wasn't very successful at finding food, since I am very skinny and need to put some weight on my little body. I am still a little scared by my experiences and am a little overwhelmed by all of the sights and sounds in the shelter too. I am a very sweet little girl that loves to be held in your lap and gently petted. I just know that there have to be better things ahead for me and I can hardly wait to be with my new family!

My name is Venus and I am quite a bit shyer than my brothers and sisters. We all came from the house that had to be sold after our family split apart. I guess that this has been harder on me than most of my siblings. I am having a very tough time adjusting to my new reality. I am just a young girl that is maybe 8-10 months old, just spayed, and have a lovely tortie coat of hair. Being in a cage instead of in a home with a loving family is so depressing. I need someone to love me again and to help me get over my sadness. I am praying extra hard that today will be the day that I get my new forever home!!

It is really hard to get over something so traumatic. My owner recently passed away and I guess that none of the family or friends would take me in. I found myself being driven to the shelter and surrendered to an uncertain fate. Luckily I was up to date on all of my shots and already neutered, so I was able to move right into the adoption room. My name is Bubba and I can tell you that I didn't feel so lucky. The first few days I just laid in my litter box, not eating or really looking at anybody or anything. I felt so very alone and I missed my home and family. The volunteers tried really hard to cheer me up and petted me and even gave me kisses. Now I have decided that even though my heart is still broken, that I have to try to look to a better future. I am a very sweet and gentle boy and love to be held and petted. At only around 7 years old, I still have plenty of life left to live. Won't you help me??

How can you resist a face like this? My name is Elsa and I am a beautiful little girl that is maybe 10-12 months old. I was brought to the Meyers Animal Shelter as a stray cat. I have heard that there are a lot of people who think that there is something wrong with a "stray" cat. I have to tell you that I am certainly not wild, and I am about as sweet and loving a little girl as you could ever find!! It is not my fault that I came here with this label check marked on the form. You have heard the phrase, "Don't judge a book by it's cover". The same thing applies to us "stray" cats. Don't judge us for that title, just look at who will really are inside. Please come here today to meet me, Elsa, up close and purrsonal!!

Okay - this could have been really embarrassing!! Until yesterday the name on my card was Sylvester, but one of the volunteers noticed that I was actually a girl! So my name has now been changed to Chelsie, which certainly fits me much better!! I am a lovely dilute tortie cat, already spayed, that is probably only about 1-2 years old. You may have been reading some stories by some of my brothers or sisters recently on this site. Our family has fallen apart and our home has to be sold. Unfortunately for all of us resident cats, that meant being surrendered to the shelter. I have been so sad since this happened, that all I want to do is sleep. I keep hoping that when I wake up that it will all have been a bad dream and that I will be home. Instead, when I open my eyes I am still behind the bars of this cage. Because of everything I have been through, I am a little slow to warm up to you at first. I need to know that I can trust again, before I give you all of my love. Won't you please give me my second chance at happiness?

I have been here for over 10 long months now and I am so very tired of living in a cage every day! I am just getting chubby and depressed being here day after day. I am still just a young girl that loves to play and can be very affectionate too! I do prefer to be the only cat in the house, but I can probably learn to live with another one as long as there is plenty of space. Won't you please give me a chance to be happy again?

My name is Sadie and I am only about 1 year old and found my way to the Meyers Animal Shelter as a pregnant stray way back in March. A few weeks later my babies were born and we were all moved upstairs to an empty staff office. Sadly my little ones all became very sick with "kitten colds" and were too young and week to survive - except for my boy Sam. We mourned our loss but grew healthy and stronger every day. We have been very happy upstairs with all of the special treatment and were even given the run of the place after awhile. Needless to say I was not at all happy when I was put into a cage downstairs in cat adoption. I felt so stressed that I even took it out on poor little Sam! Luckily some volunteers took pity on poor Sam and moved him in with some smaller babies and moved me into a cage of my own. Aaah! Peace at long last and no more kids to worry about! Now I can just concentrate on finding my very own forever family.

I guess that it is not hard to see why I was given my new name. I came in here right around Christmas time and the girls decided that they needed a little Noelle!! I am a beautiful young girl, already spayed, that may be around 3 years old and is all black except for a white patch on my chest and one on my tummy!! I sure wish that my family had come looking for me, but now I have to accept that they are never coming back. It is so hard to think about the fact that they didn't love me, the way that I loved them. I have to move on with my life now and it helps to have a staff that is kind and loving. I am a really sweet girl and I hope that my words and face will strike the heart of a very special person today!

Hmmm --- I think that maybe I will check this place out after all! My name is Kerry and I am a beautiful young lady that is spayed and recently moved into the adoption room. Like so many cats that have been here before me, I found that my first day in adoption was quite overwhelming. Even though I had already been in a cage in the intake room for awhile, this experience is very different. A lot more people come into this room including all kinds of visitors and volunteers. I can hear the dogs barking down the hall and I can see a whole bunch of other cats that are also in cages. I was way too scared to come out at first, but now I am starting to get curious! I love the fact that we get some time to stretch our legs in here, to look out of the windows and to get affection from the volunteers! I have to let everyone know that I don't belong in a shelter. I belong in a home being pampered and adored forever!
