My story

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

How this pet arrived:
Excelsior was brought in by his previous owner on September 28, 2024.

Why this pet is the one for you:
Introducing Excelsior, a gentle soul looking for a patient and loving home. This shy kitty is still adjusting to human companionship, having spent most of his life surrounded by other cats. Excelsior thrives on the bond built through treats, toys, and playtime, so he'll appreciate your efforts to connect over fun activities. It's important not to force interactions; instead, let him come to you at his own pace. With a little time and understanding, you can build a strong, special bond as you earn his trust. Excelsior will need to go to a home with an established, social cat to help him navigate his new environment or be adopted alongside one of his current roommates. If you're ready to provide a safe space for this sweet boy to flourish, Excelsior is waiting to start his next chapter with you!

At SDHS:
This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for their new home!

Shy/Fearful Cat:  This pet requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about them.

More about this shelter

San Diego Humane Society, an open-admission shelter, is creating a more humane world by inspiring compassion and advancing the welfare of animals and people. Our lifesaving safety net has helped San Diego become the largest city in the U.S. to keep healthy and treatable shelter animals from being euthanized. We are a private, independent, nonprofit organization that is not affiliated with any other humane society or society for the prevention of cruelty to animals.

With campuses in El Cajon, Escondido, Oceanside, Ramona and San Diego, we provide animal services for 14 cities within San Diego County. We not only care for 50,000 animals in our communities but also share the expertise we have gained through our innovative programs with shelters nationwide so they can save more lives in their communities.

While our influence is expanding nationally, our top priority is meeting the needs of San Diego. We provide exceptional care for all animals through world-class veterinary medicine, shelter and most of all: love.
