Anna is a neutered, 20-year-old, male tabby who came to Laps and Naps in late November 2022 after his human mom died.
His "mom's" caretaker kept Anna until we were able to find a foster home and she described Anna as a "grumpy old man". However, in the time he has been in his foster home, he has been found to be a loveable curmudgeon!
Anna loves to snuggle and will play with toys when he thinks no one is watching. He LOVES to be brushed. He doesn't have many teeth and loves his wet food.

Bella is a very sweet and shy 9-year-old female in need of a new home because her person died.
She and her two kitty housemates were alone in the house with a family member going in to care for them after their person died. The other two kitties were very social but Bella stayed hidden. A family friend took the other two cats and Bella is currently staying in the bedroom of a family member.
Bella will stay hidden until she knows she is safe, but she is very sweet and loving with people she trusts. She would love a quiet home with a patient person who will allow her to come out in her own time.

Ms. Charlie was once part of a family but after she scratched one of the children in the family, she was put outside and then left behind when the people moved. A kind neighbor was feeding Ms. Charlie and was concerned because she had a tumor on her ear and had lost a lot of weight. After she came to Laps and Naps, the tumor was removed and she is on medication for hyperthyroidism. She is easy to medicate as she eats the pill crushed in her food.
Ms. Charlie is estimated to be 10-years-old. She is friendly and loving, but needs a person who respects her boundaries. She doesn't like having her feet touched, or her back stroked, but loves head rubs and scratches!

Choji is a sweet cat who was formerly outdoors until he was rescued and taken to a vet because of multiple injuries. He is estimated to be 11-years-old.
Choji is FIV+ and lame in his left front leg. Radiographs didn't show signs of a fracture, but the lameness could be due to a previous injury. He also has some broken teeth, but none seem to be bothering him at this time.
At the time he was taken to the vet, he had a puncture wound and abcess, along with fleas and ear mites. All have been treated and Choji has been neutered. Choji is looking for a nice indoor retirement home where he doesn't have to worry about daily survival!

Domino is a very sweet senior, estimated to be about 10-years-old. Domino's person died and he watched as his beloved cat family were all surrendered back to the shelters and rescues from whence they were initially adopted. No paperwork could be found for Domino's adoption, so Laps and Naps took him in. He is currently in a foster home in Fletcher, NC.
Domino is initially shy but very friendly once he gets to know you. He loves giving head butts and receiving head scratches and rubs.
Domino has lived with other cats and dogs. He is not tested around children, but has an easy going nature.

Kai is a very sweet 10-year-old seal point Siamese in need of a new home because of a recent diagnosis of Feline Idiopathic Cystitis (FIC) which is brought on by stress.
He is up-to-date on vaccinations, bloodwork in January looked great, but he has a condition where the walls of his bladder become inflamed and is painful, causing him to leak urine when he's having a flare-up. Management involves keeping his stress level low so he would do best in a calm, low stress household, preferably as a one-and-only animal. Kai isn't on a prescription diet, but is on a wet food diet to ensure he gets plenty of fluids.
Kai is sweet, funny, and intelligent and would make a very good companion!
If you are interested in adopting Kai, please fill out an application at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/NAPS/Cat

Biscuit is a super friendly estimated 16-year-old neutered male who is looking for a home with his brother, Buddy.

The boys are currently in a foster home in Candler and they adjusted right away. They are both super sweet and playful and act much younger than the age we were given.
They are up-to-date on vaccinations and have had recent dentals. They get along with the foster dog but not with the other cats in the home.

Bella and Barbie are a bonded pair of sweet 11-year-old sisters who were literally dumped on the porch of a person who cannot keep them because of the other animals in the family.
They are currently being kept in a room of a basement in Clemmons, NC but they are both very sweet, social girls who deserve a home where they can receive more attention.
The girls are up-to-date on vaccinations and would benefit from a managed wet food diet to help them lose weight and live longer, happier lives without the ailments brought on by dry kibble and obesity.

Pippa and Sabrina are two 15-year-old sisters from the same litter who are in need of a new home because their human "mom" died and their elderly human "dad" is moving to be closer to family and could not find an apartment that allows cats.
Their "mom" was going through the process of adopting Sabrina from a shelter and when she asked why the little black and white kitten was causing such a fuss, she was told that she wanted to stay with her sister, so the woman adopted both!
Pippa remains the more talkative of the two sisters and the most outgoing. She loves head rubs and sitting next to you on the couch.
