Gracie
With us since: April 2025
Gracie came to us after her finder realized she had a pretty severe ear infection. We took her in and Helping Hands for Animals was able to get her in to spay her, and also address her medical issues. Along with the ear infection, she had a polyp causing the infection, dental issues, and a wound on her neck. She was treated for all these and has healed very well. Gracie will needs lots of time and space to open up to humans. She has been pretty standoffish with the staff, but her finder had been able to pet her while she was living outside near her. Gracie will do best in a quieter home without dogs and small children. She does well with the other cats and likes to play with toys. Wet food is the way to her heart! Gracie is approx. 1 year old, spayed, and fully vaccinated.
Bruno
With us since: May 2025
Bruno came to us with a reported broken leg. He was examined at our vet and monitored at our office and he has had no leg issues. Bruno has been very timid since he has come to us, but he is slowly opening up! He likes pets and scratched behind his ears. He also loves to sit in the windows and watch everything. He does very well with the other cats. Bruno is shy and will need someone to give him time to open up! He would most likely prefer a quieter home. Bruno is approx. 2 years old, fully vaccinated and neutered.
Squid
With us since: April 9th, 2026
Squid came to us with pregnancy complications, eye infections, a bloody nose, and an upper respiratory infection.
Even while sick, she barely slowed down! She is a ball of energy, always looking for something fun to do. Once she sees a human, there is no stopping her from running in for some pets and playtime.
June Bug
With us since: August 2025
June Bug is a gentle, shy soul who prefers a quiet life and plenty of personal space. He came to us with an upper respiratory infection and a possible throat blockage, but after thorough veterinary care and treatment, he has made a full recovery. June Bug is happiest tucked into the cozy cubby holes of the office cat tree, where he can relax and watch the world from a safe distance with his friend Prince. He doesn’t mind the company of other cats and coexists peacefully with them, but he takes his time warming up to people. He’ll need a patient adopter who can give him the space and understanding he needs to slowly build trust. Because of his sensitive nature, June Bug would do best in a very calm home with no children—a quiet, steady environment where he can feel safe and be himself. If you’re looking for a low-key, gentle companion with a soft heart, June Bug may be the perfect match. June Bug is approx. 5 years old, fully vaccinated and neutered.
Crush
With us since: March 20, 2026
Crush came to us after being attacked by another cat. He had scratches over most of his face, neck, chest, and front legs. The swelling in his face was so intense he could barely keep his eyes open.
Once he landed in our care, his happiness and love radiated immediately! He began soaking up all the cuddles and affection he possibly could. He is one of the sweetest cats and is such a gentle being.
Prince
came to us with an upper respiratory infection but it has cleared up nicely now. He is a beautiful 2ish year old with a shy soul. He takes his good old time warming up to people. He has been cohabitating peacefully with other cats. He prefers to spend his time with June Bug in their favorite cat tree. He is most active at night and will go for leisurely walks around the office. Prince is best suited for a home without children.
With us since: August 30th, 2025
Buster & Mulan
Buster has been with us since January 26, 2026. He came in with a severe upper respiratory infection and a crusty face. He is about 6 years old.
Mulan has been with us since February16, 2026. She came to us with pregnancy related complications. Unfortunately, her babies didn’t survive.
Buster and Mulan met after both had recovered fully and quickly bonded. Despite their closeness they are two very different personalities.
Buster has more love to give than is big tom cat cheeks can hold! He is very friendly and affectionate to any human he has met.
Mulan is more reserved and prefers watching the action from a somewhat sheltered place. She takes time to warm up to humans, but when she does, she enjoys head and shoulder pets and scratches.
Bernard
With us since September 13, 2025
He came in as a kitten with a very swollen and infected eyeball. He is about 9 months old now. He will most likely have a cloudy eye for the rest of his life. We don’t know how severely his vision was impacted in that eye, but he does not let it stop him from getting into every new place he can find! He has found his way into drawers, cabinets, and closed boxes. When he is not looking for trouble, he enjoys sitting in windows and leaving his favorite cat toys in the food dishes.
Thyme
Wish us since September 8, 2025. She came in with a significant upper respiratory infection. She is now about 10 months old.
Thyme has her playful moments where the kitten in her is front and center. She likes the feather wand and things dangling from string. When she isn’t in kitten mode, she is in full lounge mode. It doesn’t matter to her if it’s the middle of an open floor or on a shelf in a window. She is comfortable everywhere.
Princess Peach
With us since: November 14th, 2025
Princess Peach came to us with multiple infected wounds. After medication and specialized wound care she is all healed up and looking for her furever home!
She loves to lounge around on the shelves and perches. Every now and then she gets in a quirky mood and frolics with toys or a human.
Otto
With us since: March 26th, 2026
Otto was found at a mechanic shop with a severe wound on his front paw. it was deep and infected. The wound had to be cleaned by a veterinarian a few times before it could be stitched and begin healing. Now you would never know he almost lost a paw!
He is one of the sweetest cats you will ever meet. His favorite place to hang out is on a human lap and sometimes saying no is not an option! He is very affectionate and would do well in a home that can give him plenty of attention.
Popeye
With us since: March 3rd, 2026
Popeye came to us with a very swollen paw and toe beans. Thankfully nothing was broken. A round of meds and some rest was all it took to get this cutie back on all 4 paws.
He had some misgivings about indoor life initially, but he is now loving it. He enjoys being the center of attention. He enjoys following humans and asking for pets. He is also very helpful when doing computer work, especially when it comes to (laying on the) keyboard skills and being a breathing wrist support.
Scoobert
With us since: October 2nd, 2025
Scoobert arrived with an upper respiratory infection, and all the fur was missing from his tail. After some medication and R&R he has recovered, and his fur has returned!
He is a shy boy but will come out of his shell quickly once he is comfortable. He enjoys being brushed and getting all the full body pets one can offer.
Gargoyle
With us since: January 20th, 2026
Gargoyle was found with a significant head tilt and ear infection. A poly was found in the infected ear. Once the infection cleared up, Gargoyle underwent surgery to remove the polyp. He still has a slight head tilt that is lingering but he is unbothered by it. It actually adds to his cuteness.
He is a petite playful boy. He enjoys helping with the chores, mostly administrative tasks, and locating random objects to play with.
