Story
She’s a sweet girl that needs to go to a calm forever home where she’s the only pet. She’s a shy gal who needs and deserves to be the star of the show, once she’s had time to adjust and warm up to you. She loves gazing out windows, running laps around the house, and scratches on her cheeks and behind her ears. Her favorite perch will always be the highest one in any room. We love her so much, but we’ve realized she deserves a chance to thrive in a quieter environment with less people and pets.

Story
We have a very loving cat approximately 14 years old and have become increasingly allergic. He loves to sit on a lap and snuggle up next to anyone but we cannot provide that kind of love and support d/t extremely worsening allergies. He use to live with my son but d/t circumstances he cannot have the cat at his apt. We feel so bad that he cannot get the love and attention he craves. He is wonderful with children and will just sit on their lap and let them pet him. He needs an owner who can snuggle with him and give him a lot of attentions and love. He really has no special needs other than to be hugged and loved. He does shed a bit, but if kept combed the shedding is minimal. We would love to find him an owner who could spend time with him and give him a lot of snuggles and love. That's all he wants.

Story
Bridget is a beautiful 14-year-old calico sweetheart. She is an amazing, social and affectionate companion. She loves to be near you, getting pets and kisses; and she will purr for you all day. Bridget also happens to be a catnip junkie: She relishes her daily dose of 'nip, rolling in it, breathing it in, and then curling up for a nap with a window view. Bridget does well with other cats; she is calm, non-confrontational, and just enjoying her golden years. She'd love a mature household who will return her love and adoration. Special needs: Bridget has hyperthyroidism and requires a single pill twice per day (Cost of medication: $10 per month). Otherwise, she is a very healthy girl.   Fixed , vaccinated, microchipped, and her adoption includes a free vet exam.  (Feline Network is also covering her upcoming dental cleaning and veterinary follow up visit; but we don't want that appointment in March to delay her finding her forever home. She is ready to meet her family, and Feline Network will provide this follow up care, post-adoption.)   For adoption info, call Kristin (805) 550-9064 FelineNetwork.org   January 12, 2026, 12:55 pm

Story
  Mini  Pearl is a 6-year-old tabby with glowing green eyes, and she will melt your heart. She is the quintessential 'lounge' cat and relishes couch (and snuggle) time with her humans.  She will be a little shy at first but once she warms up to her new family, she is affectionate and loves to cuddle up next to her human day or night. Mini  Pearl is looking for a calm, stable home with no other fur babies (or kid do ), where she can soak up all of your love- and return it in spades.  Fixed,  microchipped, and up to date on vaccines.   For adoption info, call Kristin (805) 550-9064 w ww.felinenetwork.org   * ** Pearl is in the care of a private household and Feline Network is assisting with her re-homing. (She does not get along with the other furry members of her current household, and rehoming is in her best interest.) January 10, 2026, 3:23 pm

Story
Sulley is a goofy, affectionate love bug who hasn’t had the easiest start in life. When his previous owner moved away, Sulley and his feline friends were sadly left behind to fend for themselves in the cold, with little food and no one to care for them.    Thankfully, a kind-hearted person found him just before the property was demolished, and Feline Network was able to step in. Sulley received the medical care he needed and was placed in a safe, loving foster home where he could finally begin to heal.   Now, Sulley is a healthy, handsome 6-year-old boy weighing in at 14.8 pounds. He may be a bit shy at first, but once you introduce yourself and offer some gentle cuddles, his true personality shines through. He quickly warms up and reveals what a sweet, gentle giant he truly is. Sulley loves to give his people soft head-butts while purring up a storm. He’ll weave between your legs, follow you from room to room, and then plop right down on your feet to settle in - getting to witness a Sulley Somersault is quite a spectacular moment! He has done well with the calm, gentle household dog and has been great, so far, around the other foster cats in his home.    Once Sulley feels comfortable in his environment, any remaining shyness quickly melts away. Sulley is ready for a loving home where he can finally relax and receive the TLC he has always deserved.   Neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and just had an annual vet exam!  For adoption info please Text us at: (805) 668-3119 Call us at: (805) 270-4032 The Caffeinated Cat Cafe 1601 W Grand Ave, Grover Beach www.felinenetwork.orgJanuary 10, 2026, 4:08 pm
