Meet Oddball, the cat that does it all! This lovely guy truly is one-of-a kind. Not only does Oddball have the looks, but he is immensely talented, too.

This star loves to cozy up, watch some TV, and receive the occasional belly scratches, too, so don’t wait! Oddball is the dazzling new addition your home has been waiting for!

Evian loves to cuddle and lay right beside you, she’s an incredibly affectionate, gentle and energetic girl! She’s also a big fan of playing catch and her toys. When not spending time with her human friends, Evian will joyfully play with doggie friends instead. (She is currently learning how to properly greet other dogs while out on leash walks.) She’s a great work from home buddy, as she’ll sleep right by you while you type away! Apply here.
