Bobolink is a sweet and playful kitty. He does great with other cats and kittens alike. He likes to snuggle but isn`t overly snuggly. He entertains himself. He would be great on his own or with other cats. Bobolink does not enjoy being restrained, and he will make sure you know that! :)

Story
Meet Lily! She was a bottle baby kitten from 2023!She would do well as an only cat or with others. She gets along with all the other foster kitties in her foster home.Lily has been in foster care for awhile and would do well in a cat-savvy home that is willing to put in a little bit of work to help this girl get out of her shell. She is a little unsure about things but is curious. She needs a patient home to help her feel comfortable.

Story
Meet Celia!-This nice lady was in the wrong place at the wrong time and wound up in a trap and brought to the shelter. Since she was found outdoors, we think she has some skills to be indoor or out in her new home -A home with other animals may be a fit after a thoughtful introductionNow through December 17th, BISSELL Pet Foundations is sponsoring reduced adoption fees and we are participating! Adoption fees for all cats and dogs are reduced to $50.Please note: Our Santa Cruz location’s Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end “meet and greets” (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If you’d like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.

Story
Meet Bandit and Smokey, two adorable kitten brothers looking for their forever home. Born approximately on May 27, 2024, this playful brother duo is at the perfect age to join your home as you new fur babies!   Bandit, the shyer of the two, has the sweetest little face and big, curious eyes. He’s a bit reserved at first, often hiding behind his brother until he feels safe. But once Bandit warms up to you, he’s all about gentle purrs and soft cuddles. He’ll need a patient family who understands that he might take a little extra time to come out of his shell. With a bit of love and care, Bandit is sure to become a loyal and affectionate companion.    Smokey, on the other hand, is the complete opposite! He’s the life of the party, always bouncing around and chasing after toys. This social boy is super playful and loves to snuggle up after a fun play session. He’s confident and adventurous, often trying to coax Bandit into joining in the fun. Smokey's playful energy and love for snuggles make him the perfect partner for someone looking for an active, affectionate kitty.    These two brothers share a special brother bond and love for each other. Adopting them together would not only give them the comfort of each other's company but also bring double the love and joy into your home. They can also be separated if you have a young and social cat at home looking for a forever companion. Smokey and Bandit are ready to fill your life with purrs, snuggles, and endless fun!   Smokey and Bandit have been altered, up-to-date with kitten age appropriate vaccinations and microchipped. They've been tested negative for FeLV and FIV.   To meet this playful and sweet brother duo, please complete an application at https://www.purrificrescue.org/adoptNovember 3, 2024, 1:07 am

Sweet and beautiful Luna, approximately 1.5 year old, has the silkiest and softest solid grey fur.  This sweetie is extremely affectionate, friendly and loves companionship from her human guardian.

Luna has been seen by a vet for a wellness check, spayed, up-to-date with all age appropriate vaccinations and has been given a clean bill of health! She has also been tested negative for FeLV, FIV and heart worm. Sweet Luna will purr as soon as you lay eyes on her. She would love to find a family that will be devoted to her and she will never have to worry of abandonment ever again. She will make a very devoted and easy-going companion for anyone/family. To meet Luna, please submit an application at https://www.purrificrescue.org/adopt  *You can bring home Luna as your forever best friend during Fall in Love Adoption Promotion for only $75.December 10, 2024, 8:49 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.We currently have more than three dozen tiny baby kittens in foster care! They will all be available for adoption soon!During kitten season, IBOK Rescue has young kittens who are not yet posted to this site as they are too young for adoption yet. For more information on our younger kittens, please contact us. Thank you! Did you know that black kitties are always the last to be adopted? They often end up stuck foster care for many months or even years because of superstitions or because some people prefer tabbies, calicos and other more colorful kitties. But, black kitties are gorgeous! They are just as playful and loving as other kitties. Save a life! Add a wonderful black kitty to your family today!All of our kittens are only available for adoption in pairs as it is our policy not to place kittens under six months of age in a forever home where there is currently not another young kitten. Also, many of our kittens are in 'bonded pairs' or bonded with their littermates. We reserve the right not to separate bonded pairs or place kittens individually. The happiness and quality of life for our kittens is our top priority. =^..^=All of our kitties are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on their vaccinations, tested for FeLV/FIV, dewormed, deflead and microchipped prior to being delivered to their loving forever home.NOTE: The kittens in these photos are representative of kittens not yet posted to the website. These kittens are no longer available for adoption and have already been placed in their forever homes!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 1, 2024, 5:19 pm
