Domestic Longhair kittens & cats in El Cajon, California

Kylie is 2yrs old and has been with us since 8wks old, unfortunately our older cat has never been fond of Kylie and tends to pick on her. Due to recent life changes I feel as though I am unable to give her all the attention that she needs. Kylie is very chill and is easily kept occupied. Her favorite pastimes are sitting on the patio watching the birds, laying on her back on the floor for a nap, playing with small mouse toys, and sleeping on her wall hammock. Kylie can be a bit shy at times when it comes to petting and prefers that you offer your hand to her for her to rub before directly going to pet her. Due to this I feel like a home with no young children would be best so her boundaries are respected and no one gets uncomfortable. Kylie currently lives with another cat and dogs but tends to keep to herself. I would prefer she go to a home as an only animal so she gets a lot of attention but it can be discussed if you have other pets as well.

Phantom is the sweetest, most gentle soul you could ever hope to meet. She’s a shy but incredibly loving fur baby who adores being close to you whether that’s curling up on your chest for a cuddle or simply being nearby to feel connected. Phantom thrives on attention and affection and has a playful spirit that shines once she feels comfortable and safe. Her snuggles and quiet companionship make her a truly special presence in any home. Due to an autoimmune condition, Phantom now needs daily medication, and although it breaks my heart to let her go, I’m looking for someone who can offer her the consistent care she deserves. She would be perfect for someone with a little extra time to devote to her needs, ensuring she continues to feel loved and secure. My biggest wish is to find her a home where she can be happy, comfortable, and cherished for the sweet, affectionate girl she is.

This little lady was found on the streets of Hemet with her brother Splotch. She is shy and takes a bit to come around. Once she knows you wont hurt her and that you feed her she is more expressive and will cuddle with you. She likes to play with her brother and the other kittens. She likes to sleep next to her brother for comfort. We are still fundraising to get her spayed.

Samantha was found in the kindergarten yard at Baker Elementary School in National City. She had a litter of 5 kittens. While she was considered a `Feral/Community cat’ she was so friendly that she was caught by hand. She loves people and enjoys cuddling with her humans. When she was with her temporary foster, she spent time with one of her kittens, where she showed her maternal side. She`s very curious and loves to explore. She loves feather toys, cat tubes, fake mice, climbing, and having a scratching post available to scratch on. We’re not sure how she is with dogs yet, but she doesn`t take long to warm up to humans, and she`ll be an instant best friend to anyone who adopts her!

This sweet girl is a cuddle bug — if she sees you look comfy, she will come over and snuggle up next to you (or under the covers). Her favorite pastime? Purring up a storm while gently pawing at you when she’s in the mood for some love or a tasty treat! She settled into her foster home within hours, she’s a fast friend. She might be a little shy around strange men at first, but she does warm up after a day or so after getting to know them. She is excellent with her litter box, has never had an accident. I have even moved her litter box around while cleaning and she always finds it. A little quirky as well, she gets the zoomies after using her litter box! She loves to show off her playful side with her favorite toys. Her favorite toy is of course the laser pointer! But will also be seen chasing and tossing her little toy mice in the air. She's also incredibly smart, always eyeing door handles like a little escape artist in training and opening closet doors so she can go play in boxes! Overall, Phoenix is a playful, affectionate kitty who will steal your heart (and maybe try to open a few doors). Definitely have a scratching post handy—she’s got some energy and loves her scratching sessions on her scratching post.' Meet Phoenix, a gorgeous long haired young senior calico who was adopted from ARWOB as a young adult cat back on September 2018. Unfortunately, this beauty was let down by her previous adopter who rehomed her in 2020 without contacting ARWOB for help/guidance or requesting help to relinquish her back to us. Like many pet owners who believe they can find a better home and any home is better than returning to the rescue or shelter they adopted from, this is how our poor sweetheart landed in a nightmare.  In August 2024 ARWOB was contacted by a local city shelter who notified us of a cat entering their facility with a chip tracing back to us. We quickly searched our database and contacted the adopters on our records and found out they had rehomed her to a friend who in turn rehomed her to someone else to be lost and no one followed up on her. Back in 2018 this kitties name was Sabina and sadly the story we have gathered is for the past 3 years she had been owned by a young working adult who rents a room along with other roommates. The roommates had noticed their roommate kept her cat isolated in her room, with no access to any other parts of the home. The cat was visibly declining in health looking filthy year after year, until finally they started to comment and recommended she find help to rehome or relinquish Sabina to a shelter who can take the cat. Sabina's then owner declined help and continued to ignore the poor cat. Finally, in August 2024 one of the roommates contacted a cat rescuer to seek help. Once the rescuer was involved she was able to get the owner to relinquish Sabina to her and immediately removed her from the home to take her to the city shelter in hopes they could help her.  This is when ARWOB was contacted.  We were able to communicate with her rescuer who mentioned the room was a filthy dark environment. This poor cat had been enduring and suffering in silence, unseen, unheard and dealing with a flea infestation so severe there were too many to count. When she was treated her first day of rescue, this flea infestation in turn created a horrible skin infection, dirty coat and generalized alopecia (hair loss through her body).  It was no wonder we couldn't recognize the bright happy healthy and BEAUTIFUL Sabina we once knew and had under our care, to this poor depressed kitty who truthfully looked like a mangy opossum with hair patches here and there.  Hence, we knew this girl needed to start the beginning of her new life with a NEW NAME and just like the Mythical Phoenix who bursts into flame and is reborn, this beauty has now been under our care for almost 2 months.  She is recovering from the long term trauma she had to endure, but has now risen and is shining bright like a Phoenix! Phoenix's coat is healing and growing back and we can't believe the difference only 6 weeks of a normal happy clean environment with NO parasites (fleas) has done for her.  Not only physically but also mentally, she is a star!  This is what her foster mom has to say about this beauty: Phoenix has been an only pet for years and as such we prefer a home who is looking to be a single cat house hold. A cat adopter looking for that one kitty companion to offer this young senior the stability and commitment she deserves to live the rest of her golden years. As of 09/2024 she is  fostered by a single working adult in an apartment setting in Fashion Valley 92110 and thriving in that life style as a single pet.  This healthy and UTD on all medical (felv/fiv kitty) is READY to be adopted. To schedule a meet and greet in the fashion valley area please submit an adoption application online at ARWOB.org. Once your application is received we will schedule a call within 24 hours to start the adoption process, which can take 48-72 hrs (you can request foster to adopt trials if you have other pets in the home, however, we still request the adoption application is submitted instead of the foster application). Please, DO NOT apply to adopt if you don't have landlord written approval (or are working on it), have a problem with a home check and are not ready to adopt within a week of submitting your application should it be approved to adopt.
