My personality

My story

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

PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW. IT WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. If you still have questions after, we are happy to respond through email.


It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life.


ZEPHYR and his sisters (ATALANA, CIRCE, and DESPONIA) and his mama EUROPA were saved in San Jacinto, California. The wonderful couple saved them from the very cruel neighbors. So they called us. They are currently fostering them. And we are so glad they did.


Meet Zephyr, a charming tuxedo kitten from San Jacinto, California, whose signature cue mustache and striking golden eyes make him look like the most dapper feline on the block. This young gentleman is a delightful mix of playful mischief and poised sophistication—a true character ready to bring smiles to your days.


ZEPHYR has a soft spot for snacks and considers any ball or box his ultimate treasure. Whether he's chasing a bouncing ball across the floor or dramatically jumping into a box with a sense of victory, his antics are sure to brighten your home. When it’s time to relax, you’ll find him perched at the very top of his cat tree, gazing down at the world with an air of regal confidence, as though he’s the CEO of all he surveys.


Though he’s full of youthful energy, ZEPHYR’s playfulness is matched by his gentle nature. He doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body and prefers to keep things lighthearted. Of course, like any self-respecting cat, he occasionally succumbs to a classic case of the zoomies, darting through the house like a furry whirlwind of joy. It’s all part of his irresistible charm.


ZEPHYR would thrive with a pet parent who can offer him plenty of interactive playtime and a cozy spot for lounging (preferably high up for optimal people-watching). He’d fit in wonderfully with a family who loves an affectionate, quirky companion to share laughs and snuggles. Whether you’re up for a game or relaxing after a long day, ZEPHYR’s warm personality makes him the purr-fect partner.


Are you ready to meet this snazzy tuxedo cat with a playful streak and a heart of gold? ZEPHYR is waiting to bring laughter, love, and a touch of feline elegance to his new loving home. Reach out to adopt ZEPHYR to start your journey together!


*******************As stated on our application, we will not do adoptions of kittens under 8 months to a home with no other YOUNG cat in the current home. We will do adoptions of teenagers over 8 months or adults as single cats in their new home. Please make sure to read the ad. Each cat is different. *******************


ZEPHYR is a DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TUXEDO MIX. He is about 6 months old and is good with cats and has lived and played with a dog. He has never been around children.


ZEPHYR is currently at a foster home in San Jacinto, California.

********* MAY CONSIDER OUT OF STATE ADOPTIONS NEAR CALIFORNIA, BUT BE AWARE THAT WE WILL NOT SHIP. ADOPTER WILL NEED TO PICK UP**********


DECEMBER 2024: VOLUNTEERS are the only ones allowed to let you meet the kitty. Not PETSMART employees.


Volunteers are usually at PetSmart between 9 am to 1 pm for cleaning. The cats currently at PETSMART you are allowed to go visit. A good time to come visit is between 5 pm - 8 pm (Monday thru Saturday) and Sunday 4 pm - 7 pm. The VOLUNTEERS are only there in the evening for 3 hours so please call the PetSmart location, email us or visit the cattery for VISITING HOURS. Most days are different 3 hour shifts. It's based on volunteer availability.


******************* If you call the PETSMART location, please ask them to physically check the cattery door for the current week's VISITING HOURS. ******************


The kitties at a foster/rescue homes, we will accommodate as much as possible. But steps 1-6 of the ADOPTION PROCESS need to be done before we do OFFICIAL MEET & GREETS. It is easier to do the meet and greets at the locations listed below.


PETSMART
in Murrieta, California off Madison Avenue

in Hemet, California off Florida Avenue

in Palm Desert, California off Monterey Avenue


The crazy rescue mama will drive kitties to their new home, meet & greets, etc...once the phone interview and home check have been done.. Gas donations always appreciated!


************* Please no calls to the rescue. No one available to take calls. *************


If the CAT/KITTEN is still listed (meaning here or other websites) they are still available. It does not mean they don't have other pending applications or meet and greets.


Please note: Just because you fill out an application and are approved does not obligate you to adopt the cat/kitten. If he or she is not a fit...we have plenty of other cats / kittens available for adoption.


We are a SMALL rescue based out of Hemet, California. We are all volunteers that run the rescue. If we haven't reached out....be patient.


ZEPHYR is ALREADY fully vetted.
The adoption fee of $200 covers:


Neuter
FVRCP shots
RABIES shot
FELV/FIV test (Negative/Negative)
Drontal Dewormer
Stronghold Flea Control
Microchip


We are NOT a government FUNDED shelter and all our donations and adoption fees are for our rescued cats/kittens. So, we do not do DISCOUNTS.


If for some unfortunate reason you missed out on the kitten/cat you emailed about...I'm sure that we could help you with another rescue baby! Just ask!
