Master Chief – Ready for Adoption!

Imagine you woke up tomorrow and, with no warning at all, you had been dropped into the middle of Shanghai. You don't speak Mandarin or know much at all about Chinese customs, culture, geography, or anything, and practically every single person you encounter has been in China all their lives, so all this seems completely obvious to them. I'm Master Chief and that's essentially what happened to me. I spent the first two years of my life in a hoarding situation and then, eleven months ago, most of my feline family members and I were rounded up and brought here!

Sarabi – Ready for Adoption!

Here's a challenge: find one single thing about me that is not utter perfection. Just call me Sarabi Poppins because, like my homegirl Mary, I'm practically perfect in every way. I'm young (2 years). I'm little. I'm friendly. I purr all the time. My toaster butt game is immaculate. My personality, nonpareil. I'm a biscuit-making virtuoso. I've got the vibes of an exquisite tropical fish, only... not as damp. And you can pet and cuddle me.  I'm pretty new to the shelter and have just been here long enough to get all my vet care done so that I can be ready

Peanut – Ready for Adoption!

RBF or "Resting B*tch Face" is defined as "a facial expression that unintentionally creates the impression that a person is angry, annoyed, irritated, or contemptuous." Famous sufferers include Kristen Stewart, King Louis XIV, and Grumpy Cat. And me: Peanut. A literal angel. An absolute cherub. A precious little jewel... who just happens to, at all times, look like I'm listening to someone tell me why they don't believe women should be allowed to vote.  You may be tempted to tell me I'd be prettier if I smiled more, but I think I'm perfect just the way I am. I'm affectionate, gentle,

Dharma – Ready for Adoption!

Here are some of the reasons Dharma has been turned down in the past week or so. 1. She's too old (5 years old). 2. She's too big (yes, there's no denying she is a rotund lady). 3. She's the wrong color. 4. Her hair isn't long enough. 5. She doesn't really like to be picked up (she loves being in your lap, but wants to be the one to choose). And, of course, everyone has their own preferences and their own reasons and should get the cat who is right for them, but it still hurts my heart a
