Calico kittens & cats in Salinas, California

Say hello to Almond! She is a pretty little calico with a unique orange spot on the middle center of her forehead that’s shaped like an almond. Almond is one of the smallest in her litter, but is healthy and gaining weight like a normal kitten. She likes to play with other cats, toys, and especially playing in her kitty tunnel. She isn’t extremely chatty, but isn’t super quiet, she is more of a perfect in between. She likes to beat to the sound of her own drum and prefers to do her own thing rather than follow her siblings lead. She is an affectionate girl and majority of the time will come to you when called. She can be a bit shy of new people but with a little time and patience she warms up. Almond is 1 of 5 kittens that were found as newborns after a dog spooked their mama. Luckily, after a few days of around the clock care and bottle feeding we were able to catch mama who accepted her babies back. She would do best with another feline companion in the home so she doesn’t become board or lonely. She has not been exposed to dogs, but given her young age, likely could get along well with a k9 in the home if given a proper introduction. Almond will be spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated. Almond was born in April.

This is not your usual biography for a kitty looking for her forever human family, instead, it’s more of a “cat seeking cat” request. Meet Firefly, an independent, beautiful dilute calico who is on the search for a feline friend, moreso than a human buddy. She’s a bit shy around people and prefers to take her time warming up, but when it comes to other cats, she’s a natural! Firefly gets along with cats of all sizes and ages, making her the perfect low-maintenance companion for a kitty in need of a buddy. She’s well-mannered and doesn’t ask for the extras, so if you’re looking to add a friend for your current cat, Firefly could be just the right fit. She’ll need some time to adjust to her new home, but once she’s comfortable, she’ll be the calm, gentle companion your cat has been waiting for! And for the right human, if allowed in her circle of trust, she’ll turn on the charm full speed for a Churu treat! Firefly would do best in a calm and quiet home without young children or a lot of foot traffic. She is fine with cat-friendly dogs and is ultimately looking for a feline friend or friends to share snacks and naps together.

Online Adoption Application › Emmie was rescued during a heavy storm in which she found herself trapped under a neighbor's solar panels after hiding from the rains and wind. After only a minute of cajoling she worked her way free and immediately came up for snuggles.   Emmie was in heat and had already had a litter of kittens at her young age. We took her in, gave her warmth, and got her spayed and vaccinated. Since then, she has totally adapted to being an indoor cat and spends her time in the home office keeping her fosters entertained.   At this point, Emmie is very focused on her need to play - as much as possible! She has her favorite interactive toys and is also learning to self-play. Recently, she has started to appreciate other aspects of life, such as pets, ear rubs, and a warm human body to sleep against at night. She appreciates humans more each day and we are confident this quality will continue to grow.   Emmie communicates by cute chirps and squeaks - and direct eye contact telling you what she needs. She has perfect litter box habits, a lovely purr, and consistently uses her scratching post.                   Emmie was rescued during a heavy storm in which she found herself trapped under a neighbor's solar panels after hiding from the rains and wind.

See information about whom to contact in bio THANK YOU Lucy and her siblings, Frodo and Peter are very sweet kittens. They have been indoors since birth and have daily playtime with their foster family. If there’s one thing Lucy loves, it’s attention. She may not be super vocal about it, but she will go up to you and place herself in your lap or under your hand. Give her lots of pets and scratches and she’ll love you forever. She will gladly spend time sitting in your lap or being carried around in your arms. If you’re sweet about it, she will also gladly accept your kisses. Cuddle time with her siblings? Lucy adores it! She’ll go find one to cuddle when she’s ready to relax. Lucy may be a little lady who loves to stay clean, but she can handle herself in a wrestling match with her brothers. She spends her playtimes both wrestling with her brothers and using her favorite toys. Running after jingly little ball toys, and jumping up to catch swinging wands are her favorite.

Pink has been part of our family for the past 2.5 years. She’s truly independent and prefers to do her own thing. She doesn’t like to be held…unless she climbs on you. Truly loving, in her own way. She brave and makes friends easily with our other cat and dog. She loves snuggling with her dog sister. She eats kibble, uses the litter box every time, and doesn’t need fancy toys. We’d love to find her a loving home. Unfortunately my allergies are growing worst and it’s not realistic for me to keep our pets at my home at this moment. Thanks for looking. - Curtis

Meet Karaoke, the ultimate bundle of high-energy fun! This playful little dynamo absolutely loves wand toys and can jump and play for hours on end. With a personality that thrives in active homes, Karaoke might be the perfect fit for a lively family or people who like playing with kitties. While she doesn’t always ask for attention, if you initiate playtime, she’s all in, ready to pounce and entertain. Karaoke likes to be held for a bit, but once she’s ready, she’ll wriggle free to get back to what she loves most—playing! She's nonstop fun and will bring endless joy to a household that can match her energy. Karaoke also has an adorable habit of curling up for naps on top of a large stuffed dinosaur, adding even more charm to her playful personality. If you're looking for an active, fun-loving kitten who also knows how to relax in style, Karaoke is the one for you! Prior to adoption, all cats are spayed/neutered, tested for FIV/FELV, vaccinated and microchipped. This cat is currently in a foster home. To meet this cat, please fill out an adoption application so that we'll have your contact information, and we'll get back to you as soon as possible. www.thedancingcat.org/adoptNovember 11, 2025, 11:35 am
