Story
Adopted from the shelter as a kitten for my birthday, but my mother is constantly complaining about him and I can no longer handle it. He is a calm kitty, compared to others and is used to water and baths. Although an inside cat he is used to being taken outside in his pet bag and can handle loud noises. I have a dog who he has good relationship with, and they’re never fighting with each other. The dog is a small mutt for refrence. He is very playful and likes playing with toys as well! Sometimes I would put nail caps on him and trim his nails to help with the scratching of my furniture. He is the sweetest cat and enjoys cuddles but also enjoys his alone time, please he is free and I just want him in a loving home

Story
We got Mochi and Chi when they were just born. They are brothers and require that both of them get rehomed together because they’ve been together since birth and we know Chi (orange/white) will not do well without his brother Mochi. We do ask that would you agree to stay in contact with us so that we can see how they are doing with their new home/environment. We thank you for considering Mochi and Chi to be apart of your family.

Story
Hi, my name is Kitty. I am 5 months old now and was one of a litter of 3 from a feral cat colony. I was captured 2 weeks ago now and becoming socialized. I like to be petted, love the brush and love to play with my mouse. I am now getting my shots and will be neutered in about 2 months. I am still afraid of human sounds but getting accustomed to them. My mother was a Tortoiseshell and my father was a yellow/white Ragdoll. From the owner: I have 2 house cats that I trapped as feral kittens from the same colony. One kitten 2 years ago and another kitten last summer. I started feeding this kitten (second litter), with the entire colony since last summer. I trapped Kitty after reappearing after missing for a month and appeared underweight. He is ok now. I would like to take him in but I have 3 house cats. Thank you for your interest and love for animals in need. Ken

Story
Gordo is very kind and lovable. He likes belly rubs and curling up next to you on the bed or couch. He loves to be at the very top of his cat tree by the window for sun bathing. Very talkative and his meows still sound like a kitten. He is 3 years old. He does well with kids and other cats. He is shy at first so it’ll take him some time to warm up to people and other pets.

Story
We adopted this little guy at the san diego humane society. He is extremely playful, and loves toys, and even more loves to play with other cats. He is only 4 months old. We are giving him away because my wife has developed a cat allergy, and we also have a new infant daughter added to our household. It is hard for us rehoming chippy, but we decided it is for the best. We would preferably want chippy to be re homed with another cat in the house. He is also really shy and likes to hide, ever since we got him he has always been shy.
