My story

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

Hi! We're Chia and Sesame! We were rescued in the Central Valley.

I’m a sweet, affectionate and playful Tabby girl with a cute white chest because Tuxedos run in the family.

I’m initially shy in new environments and was even spicy for a minute when I first arrived in my foster home, but my short-lived spiciness wasn’t even hot like cayenne pepper, it was mild like turmeric... hehe.  Once, one of our foster mama’s friends called me a little lioness right before picking me up and giving me lots of pets. My teeny lioness hiss didn’t scare her even a little bit. I laugh about it now because spending time with my foster human is one of my favorite things to do!

Once we’ve spent a little time together, I’ll show you my sweet, cuddly and affectionate side… this goes for both humans and kitties. I made furiends with one of the previous foster kittens here and started following him around and even napping with him. He was quite confident and I cerrtainly learned a lot from him. One of the most noteworthy things I learned is that being right next to humans comes with lots of rewards like pets, kisses, compliments and sometimes even a yummy treat.

It took me a little time to get used to all of the unfamiliar things around here and some of the sounds still sometimes startle me but only the really loud ones. My foster mama has been telling me how much fun it is watching me open up and reveal a little more of my adorable purrsonality each and every day.

I'm bonded with my sister Sesame and we're looking for a home together.

We're so excited to meet our new family and have lots of fun with them!

You can see more of me in my foster home here @blocky_buds.

More about this rescue

Every day adult and senior cats with treatable medical and behavioral conditions are euthanized. GIVE ME SHELTER's goal is to rescue these cats from certain death and place them into loving permanent homes.
GMS is a registered 501(c)3 organization and is dedicated to helping stop the overpopulation of unwanted and abandoned cats. We are a small group of dedicated volunteers who are committed to bettering the life of adult cats who no longer have a home to call their own. Every time you adopt from us, you allow us to save another cat that would have otherwise died. We receive new cats into our system almost every week. Our website is constantly being updated, so please check back often!
