Wasabi is a very cute female tortie with an unusual blend of white and light orange in her light black fur, and who inherited her mom cat's orange stripe down her nose. She is one of Sushi's kittens (Wasabi, Mochi, and Miso, plus stray Aki) all of whom were rescued from being placed in a dumpster. Her foster says Wasabi is a very curious cat, but a gentle soul. She will always be right there checking out what you're doing. She loves to play with her siblings, and is bonded with Mochi and Aki. She is such a fun playful kitten. Hibachi 2 would love to be adopted with one of her siblings, or another kitten near her age so she will always have a feline companion and playmate.

November is Adopt a Senior Cat Month!😻 Have you met Hank?
Hank came to the refuge along with six other experienced house cats whose owner lost her home and could no longer keep her pets. He's a handsome tabby-and-white fellow who was very scared when he first came to us but he's feeling better now. Change isn't easy for cats, and Hank would really like to be someone's special house cat again. He would love to be adopted with one of the other cats from his family (Lucky or Fred). Come meet this sweet boy soon. DOB: 8/1/2010

Aurora and her four little babies Gingersnap, Bisquit, Muffin, and Oreo Cookie, were rescued by the refuge from a high-kill shelter and moved into a foster home where the young family has a quiet, peaceful environment and can receive plenty of one-on-one attention from their loving foster family. Her kittens are old enough to be apart from their mom, and Aurora is ready to find her forever home, too, so we would love for you to come meet her soon and see if she might be the one for you. Approx. DOB: 03/25/2017

Nibbles is a very friendly male orange tabby. He was being cared for in a community where he would go to the homeowner association meetings and sit on everyone's lap. While there his vetting was completed and he lived an outdoor life of freedom with regular meals provided until his caretaker moved and could not take him with her. He is a wonderful cat and would be delighted to have an indoor/outdoor home to call his own. Come visit this guy and see if he is the lap kitty for you.

Moo Moo is a sweet black and white tuxedo male kitty. His mom Fallon and her four babies (Jelly 2, Bubbles, Moo Moo, and Waffles 3) were transferred to the Goathouse from The Warren County Animal Ark where they had been surrendered due to their owners having too many other animals. Once they arrived at the Goathouse, they went directly to a foster home where they have been very well taken care of. They are all quite social and would love to be adopted with a sibling or another kitty near in age so they will have a feline companion and playmate.

Turducken is now back at the Goathouse and all settled in so he can rest and recuperate. The doctors at Quartet repaired his fractured hindleg with a plate and screws. The doctors said his surgery went really well and they also neutered him while he was sedated. He will need to remain in a large kennel for the next 6 weeks to keep him from trying to jump or climb or move around too quickly. They will see him again at Quartet in 8 weeks to check how it is healing and do x-rays again. Everyone at Quartet absolutely loved him and said he was the sweetest fellow. Once he is healed, we hope to find the perfect home for this little fellow who has been through quite an ordeal.
Thank you all very very much for your help with his medical bill! ❤
We will post an updated picture as soon as we are able.
