My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

*** Rose Quartz is in a foster home ***

Black/orange/white tortoiseshell, short hair, spayed female, born approx. 6/26/22, #18301

Cats: calm, older preferred
Dogs: nope
Children: teens/older kids w/gentle hands

Hello, my name is Rose Quartz! My rescue story starts in an LA Fitness parking lot where I used to roam. I made friends with the gym members who started calling me “Tortie.” (They get a D+ for creativity.) Thinking I needed a safer place, someone asked The Rescue House to take me in. Brimming with tortitude, it may have taken seven months before I let them trap me. Thankfully, I went into foster care in the nick-of-time because I was pregnant! In May 2023, I delivered four of the most beautiful babies you’ll ever see. Oh, and we finally got proper names after the fun, animated series “Steven Universe!” Fast forward to today, my kittens are settling in new homes and I can’t wait to find a forever family of my own!

I had a blast raising my kittens and bonding with my foster parents. However, I am ready for the real thing! Who wouldn’t want a warm and cozy abode where humans love you all the time? A home comes with things like windows which are awesome, because they keep me safe from the outside while I watch all the birds fly by. Homes also come with people who give me pets and attention. When I’m ready to be pampered, I’ll rub all over you and shove your hand into my face! I understand that you might be busy with things like chores or work. I’ll just find a soft spot to lounge and wait patiently. Being a cat, I don’t always want to be patient and that’s when I resort to this nifty trick that I taught my foster parents: If I meow loudly, someone will eventually pay attention to me. Humans can be so smart! Sometimes, if I meow the magic words, a tasty Churu treat will suddenly appear out of thin air. My secret power is my adorable chirps. No one can resist them!

After proper introductions, I get along with other felines, preferably those that are older and mellow. Given my background, I’d likely be fearful of dogs. I’m a bit timid and can be jumpy when faced with sudden movements. As for children, I’d do best with teenagers or older kids with gentle hands.

I’m starting my own hit series called, “Rose Quartz and her Forever Family!” Would you like to be my co-star?
