Hello there! My name is Marley, and I'm a playful and affectionate brown tabby kitten on a quest to find my forever home. I might have a little scar on my eye from when I was younger, but it's just a reminder of how strong and resilient I am. Plus, it gives me a unique look that makes me stand out in the cutest way possible!
I'm full of energy and curiosity-whether it's chasing after a toy mouse, climbing to new heights, or pouncing on imaginary prey, I'm always up for an adventure. But don't let my playful side fool you; I'm also a snuggler at heart. I love curling up on cozy laps and purring contentedly while getting lots of pets and scratches behind my ears.
I get along great with other cats as long as they're gentle and ready for some kitten antics. I'm a quick learner and very eager to please, so with a little patience, I'll adapt to any new routine or environment.
If you're looking for a furry friend who's both spirited and sweet, then I'm your guy. I promise to bring joy, laughter, and lots of love into your life. Come meet me, and let's see if we're the purr-fect match!
Adopt Marley today and give him the loving home he deserves. He's ready to be your loyal companion and best friend for life!

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.

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.
