My personality

My story

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.


The average lifespan of a cat is 13 to 20 years. Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. So don't let that discourage you from adopting an adult cat!


PHOEBE and her brother TEDDY were saved in El Segundo, California. Our independent trapper friend called saved the 2 young kittens stuck under a large truck container. Fast forward to a few months back, the rescue that was suppose to take them fell through. SO she called us. And we are so glad she did.


Meet PHOEBE, a charming cat from El Segundo, California, whose personality is as vibrant as her multicolored Calico coat. With her signature patches of orange, black, and white, PHOEBE is a walking masterpiece, ready to bring her unique quirks and playful spirit to a new loving home.


PHOEBE is a delightful mix of playful energy and sweet shyness. She has a quirky sense of humor, often seen chasing her tail or leaping dramatically after a stray feather. Her play sessions are like a comedy show in your living room! While she loves her toys and a good game of pounce, PHOEBE also has a timid side. New sounds or sudden movements might send her scampering to her favorite cozy hiding spot, but with patience and gentle encouragement, she always finds her way back.


PHOEBE is especially fond of other cats and would thrive in a home with a feline buddy who can help her feel safe and confident. She takes her time warming up to new people but blossoms in a calm, understanding environment. If you’re someone who appreciates the beauty of earning a cat’s trust, PHOEBE is the perfect companion. Once she feels secure. her quirky side shines, complete with soft purrs.


Her ideal home is one with a patient and loving family who will give her the time and space she needs to settle in. PHOEBE’s journey may take a little extra care, but the reward of her companionship is immeasurable. She’s looking for a pet parent who understands that love is built on trust, one gentle step at a time.


Are you ready to invite this funny, shy, and utterly adorable calico into your life? PHOEBE is ready to bring her unique charm and sweet companionship to a home filled with love. Could it be yours?


PHOEBE is a CALICO / DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR MIX. She is about 1 year and 9 months old and is good with cats. She has never been around children and is not quite used too dogs.


PHOEBE is currently at our rescue in Hemet, California.

********* MAY CONSIDER OUT OF STATE ADOPTIONS NEAR CALIFORNIA, BUT BE AWARE THAT WE WILL NOT SHIP. ADOPTER WILL NEED TO PICK UP**********


NOVEMBER 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 5 pm - 8 pm (Monday thru Saturday) and Sunday 4 pm - 7 pm. The VOLUNTEERS are only there in the evening for 3 hours so please call the PetSmart location, 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


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 to the rescue. No one 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.



PHOEBE is ALREADY fully vetted.
The adoption fee of $200 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!
