Meowdy! I’m Tabasco! My siblings and I found our way to Big Lake Humane Society in a cardboard box and were very shy and undersocialized. I do great now that kind people have showed me that being petted isn’t so bad (I really like it now). I was adopted and had a great home and even had a best friend who was a dog but sadly my owner passed away so here I am homeless again. If you could find it in your heart to give me a forever home, maybe with a dog to play with, that would be so awesome, I promise you won’t regret it.

Bonjourno! I’m Frederica. I came to the shelter with a couple of other cats I grew up with. I grew up outside most of my life, hunting for bugs/mice/chipmunks etc. not something I’m really proud of because I think of myself as a tender hearted soul. I do appreciate the pets that come from people and playing with my friends at the Whisker Room. I like to hang out and watch the action and get into the mix when the timing is right. I would love a place to call home and hope someone will find it in their heart to give it to me.

My name is Spenser and I am about 2 and a half years old. I came to the shelter with my sister Chiefette who already found her forever home so I am patiently waiting for my turn. I can be a little shy at first with new people but once the pets start to come, I won’t leave you alone. I like all my friends at the Whisker Room and get along with all of them. Please consider me as your next family member.

Jazzy here! Come curl up with me and listen to some tunes. I made my way to the shelter after being abandoned at a vet clinic. Now I’m at the Whisker Room hoping to find my forever home. I am a bit older than the older cats here, but I like to consider myself more mature. I’m pretty quiet and very sweet. I get along with all of the other kitties at the cafe too.

Hello, I’m Miss Ellie. I’m a little shy at first, but I’ll warm up to you after a minute or two of gentle pets. I’m 12 years old, so I’m a wise and calm lady. I would love to be adopted with a peaceful, quiet home environment where I can spend the rest of my life relaxing in the warm sunlight

Their facilities have continued to grow, and they now reside on ten acres of property with trails and fenced agility areas, providing all their animals with both physical and mental enrichment.
