My story

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

Hello there! I'm Sonny, a shy but super sweet brown tabby kitten with a heart of gold. If you're looking for a little furball who will warm your heart and home, you've come to the right place.

About Me:
Name: Sonny
Age: Kitten
Color: Brown Tabby
Personality: Shy but Loving
Special Note: I have a brother named Marley, and we are best buddies!
My Perfect Day:
I'm a bit on the reserved side, but with a gentle touch and a patient hand, I warm up quickly. My ideal day involves cozying up in a sunbeam, playing with some feather toys, and snuggling into a soft blanket. I have a sweet and mellow personality, and I love to watch the world go by from a safe, comfy spot.

Why Marley and I Are a Perfect Pair:
Marley is my confidant and partner in crime. We've shared so many adventures together and have a special bond that's hard to break. Marley's a bit more outgoing than I am, and having him around makes me feel more secure and confident. We'd love to be adopted together so we can continue to support and comfort each other as we adjust to our new home.

What I'm Looking For:
I'm searching for a loving home where patience and understanding come hand-in-hand. If you have a cozy corner and a gentle touch, I promise to bring lots of love and purrs into your life. Marley and I would thrive in a calm environment where we can slowly come out of our shells and show you just how wonderful we can be.

Fun Facts:
I have a charmingly soft meow that I use when I'm feeling particularly affectionate.
Feather toys are my absolute favorite!
I have a talent for finding the coziest spots in the house-if there's a warm lap or a sunny patch, you can bet I'll be there!
If you think you can offer Marley and me a forever home filled with love and understanding, we'd be thrilled to meet you. We can't wait to start this new chapter together and share our lives with someone special.

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.
