Story
Brief BioMurphy is 6-month old male gray kitten. He is looking for a forever home with a patient, loving adopter. He`s been in foster for 4-5 weeks to work on his people skills. You`ll notice he has an ear tip, as we weren`t sure if he`d warm up to new people. He`s still working on his confidence but he`s come a long way! He`s eating Hills Science Diet dry food and gets wet food as an occassional treat. He`s a litter box champ!Summary of PersonalityMurphy aka `Boeing` is a quite shy boy. He earned the nickname `Boeing` because his initial response is lay his ears out flat like airplane wings. The foster still gets an occassional hiss when Murphy is feeling unsure. But it`s all for show. The foster can still pet and encourage Murphy without no issues. Murphy does like to play with toys that he can n bat around and chase. He`s still deciding if he likes wand toys or not; right now he backs away from them. You can pick Murphy up if needed, but it`s not his favorite thing. Murphy will need a very patient adopter who understands shy kittens and is willing to meet him where he is and allow him to get comfortable and confident in his new surrounding.Home Life (experience with kids & other pets, etc)Murphy has only been around another kitten that came in with him. Murphy would do best as an only cat or being adopted with Stubby and Patches. He was not comfortable when the resident cat would try to sneak in the house. Murphy would also do better in a home with adults only. He would most likely do well with older children with proper slow introductions using calming voices initially. Won`t you give Murphy a chance to show you what a great cat he can be?Is your foster litter box trained?Yes

Brief BioStubby is 5-month old male kitten that got his name from his short tail. He is looking for a forever home with a patient, loving adopter. He`s been in foster for 4-5 weeks to work on his people skills. You`ll notice he has an ear tip, as we weren`t sure if he`d warm up to new people. He`s come a long way in a very short time and is quite affectionate! He`s eating Hills Science Diet dry food and gets wet food as an occassional treat. He`s a litter box champ!Summary of PersonalityStubby is an absolute purr monster once you gain his trust. He is initially shy and unsure around new people, surroundings, and sounds.He`s quite playful and likes playing with things he can bat around and chase. He`s still deciding if he likes wand toys or not. You can pick Stubby up and he`ll hold onto your shoulder. You can feel him start to relax once you pet him. Once Stubby gets comfortable around you and his surroundings, his true loving and adventurous side will come out. He adores being pet and getting ear scratches. He would love to get adopted with his brother, Patches.Home Life (experience with kids & other pets, etc)Stubby has only been around his brother and another kitten that came in with him. He did well with the teenager in the house, once he got used to him and learned to trust him. With proper slow, supervised introductions, I think Stubby would warm up to other animals and definitely people. A calm, quieter home would be the best setting for Stubby initially until he adjusts, and recommend only older children.Is your foster litter box trained?Yes

Story
Otter is the best girl. She loves everyone. She's a bit picky about her wet food. She only likes pate and so far she'll eat Fancy Feast, Weruva, or Wellness Core. However, as soon as you eat people food, her interest piques, evidence of her years on the street. She came in as a stray with a leg injury. She went through the UC Davis Fracture Program and came out with a little limp but nothing that keeps her down. She loves playing, lounging on the couch or a cat tree. She loves to snuggle. She gets along with everyone. If you're looking for an older cat this girl is the best!

Story
Pepper! Pepe! Pepe Le Pew! Pepsi! We have lots of funny nicknames for our lovely tabby princess. She loves attention, playing with toys, and zooming like a maniac! She has warmed up to the foster kittens and resident cats but she would be fine as a solo cat. Pepper has been enjoying the outdoors while in her foster home yet she doesn't mind staying inside and sleeping all day. She's pretty easy going, friendly, nice cat who always says hi when you show up and likes to hang out. She's a damn fine cat! She is being treated for allergies that bother her eyes, but she needs a foster or forever home who can feed her a prescription diet. If fostering we can provide the food. We give her Zyrtec twice a day with treats and she absolutely loves it! She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations and microchipped. Please feel free to send an email to her foster Ariana at arianamburrows@gmail.com with any questions or to arrange a meeting!

Story
Misty was abandoned on property by a previous neighbor it turned out. I rescued her November 18, 2023. She was examined by a vet, vaccinated, and spayed, being about 1-2 years old at the time. I'm a retired senior living on a fixed income and cannot afford to keep her any longer. Misty is a friendly feral that might have been raised around children when she was a kitten. I love Misty enormously, but cannot afford to keep her; and I would accept donations to help me keep her (I set up a GoFundMe page for her without response), but I feel it may be better for her to have another loving home in the long term. Please help me retain the precious life of this active, beautiful Dilute Tortie. Gracious thanks in advance.
