Here's what the humans have to say about me:
PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW . IT WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. If you still have questions after, we are happy to respond through email.
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.
SASSY was rescued from a tree in Lakewood, California. Our independent trapper friend was called to come help. Once they were able to get her out of the tree, they discovered she was very skinny, malnourished and had mange. Rescue mama was asked to help and she couldn't say no.
SASSY is your typical teenager. She loves to be petted. She absolutely loves her wet food. She is very fond of CHURRU...that's how you can win her affection. But it will not be an overnight love affair.
SASSY is not a lap cat. She is picky about who she let's touch her. She does not like to be picked up. She will be ok by herself or with another cat. But as her name states....she is SASSY. Will need proper introduction. She is very fond of her roommate, RACHEL VALDEZ.
SASSY is DOMESTIC LONG-HAIR MAINE COON MIX. She is about 1 year old and is good with cats. She has never been around young children and she is very curious about dogs.
SASSY is currently at PETSMART <<< 25290 Madison Ave, Murrieta, CA 92562 >>> off Madison Avenue.

FEBRUARY 2024: VOLUNTEERS are the only ones allowed to let you meet the kitty. Not PETSMART employees.
Volunteers are usually at PetSmart between 9 am to 1 pm for cleaning. The cats currently at PETSMART you are allowed to go visit. A good time to come visit is between 4 pm - 9 pm. The VOLUNTEERS are only there in the evening for 3 hours so please email us or visit the cattery for VISITING HOURS. Most days are different 3 hour shifts. It's based on volunteer availability.
>>>>>>>>>>>> If you call the PETSMART location, please ask them to physically check the cattery door for the current week's VISITING HOURS. <<<<<<<<<<<<
The kitties at a foster/rescue homes, we will accommodate as much as possible. But steps 1-6 of the ADOPTION PROCESS need to be done before we do OFFICIAL MEET & GREETS. It is easier to do the meet and greets at the locations listed below.
PETSMART
in Murrieta, California off Madison Avenue
in Hemet, California off Florida Avenue
in Palm Desert, California off Monterey Avenue
or any PETSMART near you!
The crazy rescue mama will drive kitties to their new home, meet & greets, etc...once the phone interview and home check have been done.. Gas donations always appreciated!
************ PLEASE NO CALLS. NO ONE IS AVAILABLE TO TAKE CALLS *************
If the CAT/KITTEN is still listed (meaning here or other websites) they are still available. It does not mean they don't have other pending applications or meet and greets.
Please note: Just because you fill out an application and are approved does not obligate you to adopt the cat/kitten. If he or she is not a fit...we have plenty of other cats / kittens available for adoption.
We are a SMALL rescue based out of Hemet, California. We are all volunteers that run the rescue. If we haven't reached out....be patient.
SASSY is ALREADY fully vetted.
The adoption fee of $250 covers:
Spay
FVRCP shots
RABIES shot
FELV/FIV test (Negative/Negative)
Drontal Dewormer
Stronghold Flea Control
Microchip
We are NOT a government FUNDED shelter and all our donations and adoption fees are for our rescued cats/kittens. So, we do not do DISCOUNTS.
If for some unfortunate reason you missed out on the kitten/cat you emailed about...I'm sure that we could help you with another rescue baby! Just ask!
If you have any questions not covered here, please feel free to email us:
