My story

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

Minnie is a bundle of energy and curiosity wrapped in a tortoiseshell coat that's as unique as her personality. With her striking mix of colors, she stands out in any crowd-though she'd much prefer to be the center of attention in your lap! Minnie is incredibly playful and loves exploring every nook and cranny. Whether it's pouncing on a feather toy, chasing a laser pointer, or simply batting around a crinkly ball, she's always up for an adventure.

Despite her lively nature, Minnie has a sweet side too. She's incredibly affectionate and enjoys curling up for cozy naps after a long day of play. Her gentle purring and warm snuggles are the perfect end to any day.

Favorite Things:

Toys: Anything that moves! Feather teasers, laser pointers, and crinkly balls are all top choices.
Treats: Tiny, tasty morsels are her weakness. She's always eager to sample new flavors.
Cuddles: Minnie loves being held and will purr contentedly when snuggled up next to you.
Ideal Home:

Minnie would thrive in a loving home where she gets plenty of attention and playtime. She's great with other pets and children, making her a perfect addition to a family setting. She's also adaptable and would do well in a variety of living situations, from cozy apartments to spacious houses.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is designed with the pet and the family in mind. We look to make the process as easy and efficient as possible for our adopters, while also preserving the key safeguards that ensure we place our kitties with loving homes they can be sure to stay with forever. Sometimes we may ask for a virtual home visit via video or FaceTime to gain more insight into what kind of kitty will best fit your lifestyle and environment.

Go meet their pets

Friends of Normie is an entirely foster based rescue so all of our adoptable cats reside with their foster families who are located across Orange, LA, San Bernardino, and San Diego counties. We have a kitty for every family and locale, so we will work to match you with a feline friend who matches both your desires and your location.

More about this rescue

It all started in 2020 when Friends of Normie founder Ladan Davia found a mother cat and six kittens on the side of the road. All of the shelters and rescues she called in hopes of ensuring this feline family’s safety told her to leave them outside or that they were at capacity. So Ladan went to her local hardware store, bought a trap, and set up a makeshift shelter for the seven cats in her bathroom.

Through the local cat network Ladan got connected to Marla, a rescuer with 25 years of rescue experience. Together, they rescued thousands of cats over the next two years, setting the foundation for what Friends of Normie is today. Without a physical facility, Marla and Ladan utilized a network of committed volunteer fosters to give new rescues temporary, loving homes until they were adopted. Along the way, FON harnessed the power of social media to mobilize the Southern California cat community.

This community began to gain traction as more and more people began following its journey. Today, Friends of Normie has over 40,000 followers who support the rescue and collectively help cats get matched with fosters and adopters quickly.
