Are you: Looking for the Laurel and Hardy of Cats? Needing some quirky rescue cats to brighten up your life? Then search no further! This odd-couple pair of sweeties are waiting to entertain and take up a spot on your couch. Harrison Ford’s Cat is a big teddy bear who plays like a kitten, and will always make you laugh when you see him running away. He has a resting grump face that melts away with cheek skritches and his favorite brush. Viktor Thumbs is a gentle orangie who takes some patience and churu treats to warm up. He loves lounging in the window sill and cuddling with his BFF Harry. If you have a quiet home with lots of toys for this bonded pair, they will provide endless entertainment with their antics! These boys are different ages and litters, but were trapped from the same 40 cat colony. After months of socializing and getting them healthy, they are searching for the perfect indoor only home! Neutered, microchiped, up to date on vaccines, and treated for parasites. They do need hypoallergenic food to keep their itches at bay (Harrison has an allergy) No dogs, loud noises or very young children, but ok with older/mellower kids. These characters are destined to be internet famous, clear your memory card for photos!

Story
This dapper gentleman is looking for a new indoor home before Halloween. At 15lbs, he will NOT be denied cuddles and pets. 😸 Would do alright in an indoor/outdoor situation, but only if the yard has cat proof fencing or catio. He was hungry and living on the street several months ago, so he needs a warm bed inside at night to keep him safe. He's been indoor only since rescue and has been on his best behavior! He's not the biggest fan of other animals and can be a bit of a chasing bully, but he adores human children and is eager to please. Neutered, up to date on vaccines/parasite prevention, and microchipped. He's been to the vet for his eye, it's scarred from an old injury and just needs a gentle wipe. Can you hear him purring in these photos? Come meet Wilson and see if he's right for your family! I dare you not to fall in love...

Story
Kit and Kat need a new home! These cuddly siblings have been together their whole 6 years of life and I’m hoping to keep it that way. They are both fixed, extremely sweet, love belly rubs, and do well with dogs and kids. Kit loves to lay around and play with ping pong balls, while Kat enjoys crumpled up paper and playing hide and seek which is why she’s also known as Ghosty Girl. Both come when they are called and have been indoor cats but love looking out the window and would probably enjoy a nice backyard. We need to rehome as we are having a baby in August and don’t have enough space in our little home for the baby and their litter boxes.

Spicy is about 4 years old. I got him from a rescue center and he has been strictly an indoor cat since I brought him home. His microchip is current and can be transferred to a new owner. He’s big on cuddling, enjoys having his belly stroked and his nose rubbed. I have all his papers from the rescue center as well.

Story
Please help BB Snuggles get out of the rain! This adorable kitty showed up at the home of a Good Samaritan. Her ear was tipped, but she is social and really wants love! She will cuddle and purr for her new friend, and is litter box trained and a great roommate when she is able to come indoors. BB is also extremely smart and is learning to walk on leash and some basic commands! Unfortunately, BB's new friend cannot offer her a permanent home because BB Snuggles does not get along with her cats. BB has had a physical exam, is current on vaccines and tested negative for Felv/FIV. BB is timid around strangers and will need someone loving and patient, who is willing to earn her trust. We are placing this listing on behalf of the Good Samaritan that found BB. All inquiries will be forwarded to BB's current guardian!

Story
If you are interested in meeting Wobbles L, please complete our adoption questionnaire at http://www.fluffbuddies.org/infoquestions.php WobblesL aka WoB - I have a mild case of CH (Cerebellar Hypoplasia) which makes me wobble when I walk (looks like my back end is swaying and my back feet are stomping), but when I run fast, it isn't even noticeable. It never interferes with playtime with my siblings (and does not hurt me, nor will it shorten my life.) I will meow at you when I want food or when I ready for lap time - I love having my belly rubbed. My napping buddy is MikeyL and would love to be adopted with him. I was born approximately 3/18/23. This litter of 4 might always have a chronic case of URI (Upper Respiratory Infection) which is caused by at least 2 different viruses. This is characterized by 1 or both of the following: runny eyes and sneezing, nasal discharge. Right now they appear cured (no sneezing, no eye or nasal discharge.) They should be onlys or go with a sibling or go to a household that also has a kitty with chronic URI or live with a kitty that has had URI so many times, they are largely immune to it. Adoption events are held at the Fair Oaks Petco (Madison at Hazel) on Saturdays from noon to 4pm.

If you are interested in meeting Trixie L, please complete our adoption questionnaire at http://www.fluffbuddies.org/infoquestions.php TrixieL - I am the only female in a litter of 4 so I have to be a bit sassy to keep my 3 brothers in line. I was named because I play tricks on my brothers. I also do the neatest trick. I sit up on my hind legs and then paw at the air with both paws! Kind of looks like I'm begging (which I am) and it usually means I want pets, food, or treats. And that black spot on my 'cheek'? Yup, that's my beauty mark! I was born approximately 3/18/23. This litter of 4 might always have a chronic case of URI (Upper Respiratory Infection) which is caused by at least 2 different viruses.

Story
If you are interested in meeting Betty Jean & Everley, please complete our adoption questionnaire at http://www.fluffbuddies.org/infoquestions.php BettyJean, born approximately 5/29/23, came into foster care as a mother cat with her 4 kittens that were just 5 days old. She is a super friendly, people-oriented kitty and craves pets and attention. (She can become overly playful taking your hand or foot in her mouth. She does not bite but her claws are sharp so not small children for this girl! We always recommend you do not play with kitties using your hands anyway. Use a wand, a fishing toy, or a laser light.) With just Everley left to be adopted, he benefits by having his mom's complete attention. She washes him and then they play together and then curl up in each other's paws for a nap. Everley, born exactly on 3/30/24, came into foster care with his mom, Betty Jean, and 3 siblings when he was just 5 days old. When not playing with his mom, BettyJean, (or having her give him a thorough wash) he will lie next to fosterer for some pets. He gently takes holds of fingers in his paws to gently nibble - and then kicks fosterer with his hind legs. Little tough guy! - Then he goes to nap with his mom. Mom BettyJean and her baby boy, Everley, are SO cute together . . . Adoption events are held at the Fair Oaks Petco (Madison at Hazel) on Saturdays from noon to 4pm.

Story
If you are interested in meeting BeverlyS & CindyS, please complete our adoption questionnaire at http://www.fluffbuddies.org/infoquestions.php These girls are shy at adoptions, but once they know they are home, they are entertainment every day doing everything together! Born in a friend’s yard (estimated dob 8/30/23), these girls were first to make human friends right away of the 4 kittens! CindyS is a white with blk & tan bodysuit with a hood, but the white face n pink nose will win her the cuteness award! Yes white mittens and socks, but she uses those front paws sweetly as hands to reach up n touch your cheek when she knows you love her! The more shy of the two, she is first to the top of the cat tree to wait for her sister to play! She loves to be in your lap for petting before her! She has her Lamb Chop lamb toy & carries it around the house! Even puts it in her bed for napping, so may need a few on hand as they wear out! Beverly S is an outgoing black & white tuxy girl with sweet yet sassy personality for days! She will try any cute trick to get human attention, and uses her paws to pull your hand closer for a quick love nip she is finally mastering as a cute pressure kiss! Needs petting if you sit down! Both are eager to please, and try to make up to you sweetly if scolded! Kisses and licks for their loving humans come naturally and play for hours to entertain you! Great with nice older kids, but too much noise will drive them to hide, so middle school age on up! Not good with ANY size dogs and will pester an older cat if more in the family! Will hide at first so need a slow introduction to entire house in one room first they will make their safe place without other cats there. Then let explore as they get comfy! They don’t meow loud so you will play hide n seek sometimes! Kitties are great with sandbox and clean, but recommend covered box & remove door for a bit of privacy comfort! They do get underfoot and run between legs, so not recommended around people with mobility issues. No toys w/ bells or ping pong balls after bedtime or will awaken you with a soccer match in early morning! Wet and dry food recommended but can graze all day and don’t over eat. A sweet pair to complete your family! Adoption events are held at the Fair Oaks Petco (Madison at Hazel) on Saturdays from noon to 4pm.
