Story
Gael is a very lovable 5 year old cat. He's playful and cuddly, and has made a remarkable recovery from FIP in 2021. My partner and I are no longer together, and unfortunately I am not in a position to take him and he has not been acting so nicely towards her other cat. Gael would be better off in a home with somebody looking to have a single cat. Even though he's been dealing with some behavioral issues towards the other cat, he's still very loving and affectionate towards his humans, and deserving of a good home. Thank you for reading, I hope for my baby boy to have a loving and patient family.

Story
Victoria recently lost her owner. He passed away about a month ago. Victoria is around 8-years- old. She is a loyal and sweet companion and loves to cuddle on your lap. She needs a home with people who know and love cats and have no other pets in the home. A couple or single person would be an ideal match. Victoria is mainly an indoor cat but enjoys occasional outdoor time.

Story
Olive is an older cat, 9 years old, extremely sweet and loving but has some behavioral issues. She values a quiet, safe space to lay around in all day, some pets and some brushes. Loves cuddling up next to you. Takes medication for her anxiety as she has been known to pee outside of the litter box. Looking for immediate rehoming.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website."Hueneme Beach," fondly called "Mia" by her foster family, is a young,  brown tabby cat found on the Port Hueneme promenade with her two 12-week-old kittens. "Mia" loves to play, especially with her toy mice, or by exploring her surroundings. At first "Mia" preferred to find a quiet hiding place to take her cat naps, probably the result of her abandonment, but as she has grown familiar with her foster home she can be found stretched out along the back of a comfy chair where she is never too far from a loving pat from her human friends. "Mia" is very affectionate with humans and likes to be carried around, and she makes the most adorable chirping sounds instead of normal meows most of the time. She is harness trained and likes to go out in the garden with her foster mom, under very close supervision of course, for her own safety! If you would like to meet Mia or any of our adoptable kitties, submit an adoption application today!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Prince Philip: Playful + Affectionate + Gentle'Prince Philip' and his siblings 'Flora,' 'Fauna,' 'Merryweather,' & 'Sweet-tart' were 6-weeks old when they were rescued from an empty property that was in probate. Considering this rough start, they are understandably still a bit shy.  'Prince Philip' is the only boy of his group and has the sweetness to show for it. His foster family says he is super affectionate & loving with them, and he loves playing with wand toys and the laser pointer. He also loves the other cats in his foster home and is food motivated with treats and his canned food. He is still shy in new situations so a patient home is needed. If you'd like to meet 'Prince Philip' or any of our adoptable kittens, please submit an application today!
