Urgent: Loving Homes Needed for 4 Sweet Cats

Due to the heartbreaking passing of their owner, four well cared for indoor cats are looking for safe, permanent homes.

Quick Facts:
* All spayed/neutered
* Up to date on Rabies vaccines
* Front declawed (indoor homes)

Meet the Cats
* Hunter: female, black cat.
* Spike: female grey tabby with striking markings.
* Si: male, warm orange and white tabby
* Pepper: female, gentle dilute tortoiseshell
Placement Details:
Because they are front declawed, they cannot defend themselves outdoors and must be placed in 100% indoor only environments. While keeping pairs together would be ideal given the sudden transition, individual adoptions into loving homes will be considered.

Please call 870-425-4525 if you’re interested and want to set up a meet and give one of these sweeties a new home.
