Story
Candy was a young mother who was trapped and spayed to be returned to the outdoors, so I decided to foster for a short time. While caring for her during recovery, I quickly realized how much she deserved to have her very own home. She is a very sweet and cuddly girl, she loves pets and affection and overall relaxing. She is a purr machine when you have her one one and she loves having your undivided attention! Eventually she was blood tested and found to be FelV+, knowing this I immediately knew she'd need an experienced adopter who would be prepared for taking on that responsibility. As I have 4 of my own cats who Candy doesn't necessarily get along with, I think it would be best for her to be in a single cat home. I have tried searching for rescue and sanctuary as well for her, and I am trying every avenue to find her forever home❤️ If you are interested in a lovable diva, Candy is your girl. Please reach out if you have any questions! And please consider adopting this sweetheart!

This is my baby daisy. I love her very much and quite literally birthed her. she was born May 6th, 2020. The youngest of the litter. Ive tried to hold on as long as i can but i dont have anymore solutions. To be crystal clear, she has behavioral issues with peeing everywhere but the litter box. This started in 2022. Ive tried everything, moving, getting multiple litter boxes. i think the problem is my other cats, but i dont think she’d do well alone either. im so unsure. Im charging a fee to make sure she goes to a good home, i love her very much.

Story
Charlie would be proud to know that his foster mom says “he is a jewel who is happy, playful, and loves to eat”! He is good with other cats and a well-behaved senior dog, but he does wisely assess new friends and situations with a little extra time. His bunny-soft, fuzzy wuzzy light orange coat is the perfect gym suit for this energetic guy who zips up and down the cat tree and also uses it at a favorite place for a cozy snooze. Older children might be the best match for this bouncy boy’s boisterous sense of fun. His bouyant nature and sweet and easy affection make him a welcome, upbeat companion, who’s been a great joy in his foster family, and is sure to be the furry resident smile-maker in a great forever family. Could darling Charlie bring his lovable vibe to your welcoming home?

Story
Harvey is full of crazy kitten energy!  He zips and zooms around the house and loves to chase his siblings.  When it is time to rest, he can often be found snuggled up with his littermate, Sabrina.  Harvey can be shy at first and will do best in a home without young children or high energy dogs.  Harvey is ready to bring his energetic and very handsome self to a forever home where he will receive the patience and kindness necessary to overcome his bouts of shyness. Please note: Harvey is shy and needs a quiet home with no young children. (The San Diego Humane Society offers a Shy Cat training class over Zoom.)Harvey is ok with dogsMore information & application [ts=1734840205&src=aap]

  I am Clover and like my name suggests, I have a three leaf clover on my side, so I will always bring you good luck. I am a shy kitty who when strangers come around, it takes me a little bit to warm up, but when I do I love to cuddle and love on my person. Loud noises scare me, but with a little bit of comfort, I will be ok. I get along well with my big dog roommates, but sometimes they can be obnoxious. Play with me, give me treats, and feed me wet food. I can be a bit of a talker too so I will have conversations with you. Take me home and I'll be your lucky lad!

Story
This orange beauty is Cheeto. He is a wonderful kitten and watching him, you would not realize he is missing one eye. He had a physical deficiency, and it was necessary to have his left eye removed. But this has never stopped him. He runs and plays and keeps up with his 6 brothers and sisters. He is especially bonded to his orange tabby brother named Eddie. Cheeto will not need much time of adjustment to a new environment, he is curious and likes to check things out. The ideal home for Cheeto would be to have a playmate, another indoor cat, who accepts a new cat in the house. He and his brother, Eddie, would be a great twosome addition to any family. He is independent but loves attention too. He is mellow and lots of fun. He plays with toys, climbs on the cat tree, and then looks for a lap to sit in. He is happy and purrs all the time. Are you ready for this amazing Cheeto (and Eddie) to give you years of fun and laughter?  Outgoing once he is comfortable. had left eye removed Please note: Cheeto is a Special Needs cat.More information & application [ts=1734840200&src=aap]

Suzie is a mellow, meandering love sponge. Unlike most cats, she’ll roll on her back & like to have her tummy rubbed. She’s never been harshly treated. Suzie shows affection by walking back & forth flipping her tail to rub your leg. She loves to sip water from a drizzling faucet. She’s a bit overweight since with 10 cats, kibble’s ad lib. She uses the litter box. (It’s scooped clean daily.) Suzie was born to in a box on our back porch , 2018. At 6 weeks, she, siblings & mother were neutered, got shots & brought inside. She’s lived indoors & shouldn’t be let outside. She’s had 3-in-1 shots, but not rabies my cats are indoors-only & haven’t been exposed to other animals. I need a home for her is because at my age, I can’t keep up with everything. I plan to move to a senior facility. Thefee is refundable. I want to make sure that she is adopted by a person or family who will care for her and definitely not used in research
