Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW BEFORE YOU RESPOND.
It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life.
LIZ ORTECHO (named after the series ROSWELL: NEW MEXICO) and her 4 siblings were living in really bad area of Lawndale, California. The independent rescuer was asked to help get the local strays fixed and save the kittens. We were more than happy to help! These poor little guys were so malnourished, sick and scared.
So LIZ ORTECHO has known the street life for a very short time. She has now been living a nice pampered life. As you can see in the pictures, she is loved and spoiled.
LIZ ORTECHO is chunky now. She loves to be cuddled and petted. When you pick her up, she will start her little motor and purr very loud. Loves to cuddle with her siblings. Less adventurous and mischievous than her siblings. She does love to play!! She can be a bit shy at first.
LIZ ORTECHO is DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TUXEDO MIX. She is about 17 months old and is good with cats and non- reactive to dogs. She has never been around young children.
LIZ ORTECHO is currently at a foster home in Hemet, California.
