Online Adoption Application › Loving and adorable, but very special needsBriar is outgoing, loving, playful and loves life. He purrs close to non-stop and head butts you for loving. But he had a perianal hernia and GI tract complications since he was rescued as a bottle baby. We are still looking for the ideal home for Briar. He loves all animals (2- and 4-legged) and will become a very adored family member. But because of his issues he does need a special diet and a home that is easily suited to cleaning (non-carpeted or specialized room for him) as he can't always get to the litter tray to poop. If you are looking for the best of the special needs cats, for sure it’s him and he is worth the effort. Note the posting updates are in chronological order to see more on him.   Original Posting as baby: Multiple attempts to help him with vets locally would work for a while, but finally we had to take him to UC Davis for another surgery. This created quite a large vet bill for the group, requires special food, and significant care. Any donation will help significantly, towards his bill, and his on-going expenses. Please help us fund this little guy - - never seen such a trooper in a little kitten, he won’t give up; help us make sure we don’t have to! THANKS for helping!   UPDATE Nov 5 2015: Working with the vets, we have come up with a mix of canned and kibble foods to help Briar's poop firm up some so he makes the litter tray more and has gained some weight in the last months. He had stalled at about 5 lbs, but with the mix of canned and kibble we've got him up to 6 lbs. Also we had a scare when he plugged up with a hairball in rectum - with work we got it out. But now he gets hairball treatment gel with every meal till shedding season is over, and we have trimmed his beautiful tail (sadly) so he will not ingest the long 4' tail hairs. Still he's a wonderful, happy, beautiful cat!   UPDATE Dec 14, 2015: He is gaining weight and is now up to 4 lbs at 6 months of age, yeah!   Update Jan 15, 2016: At Vet check he was 4.8 lbs (yeah!) and is now eating Royal Canin Mom and Babycat kibble, as well as canned IAMS intestinal plus food, both easy to digest, so his poop is a bit more consistent in timing and firmness.   Update March 6, 2016: After trying baby kibble with Briar and finding it was a very fine balance to keep him from getting too firm of poop, we have started him on Metamucil in his canned food at the recommendation of UC Davis. So far we find that is nicely helping to manage the really loose stool.   Update Sept 20, 2016: Briar is much better on Metamucil and gained some weight as he's able to not have the food just run through him! Though he still doesn't always make it to the litter tray it’s much firmer poop and easy to clean up. He's just a total love bug and he's worth the work!   Update August 2017: We have him on a diet of canned food mixed with Metamucil and it does a relatively good job of firming up his stool but sometimes he still can't make the litter box, so he does have his own linoleum-floored room. And he does get out to hang out in the house when we can watch him to clean up after him if needed. We did have a scare earlier this month when he had a bout of colitis but the Vet said that can hit any cat and figured it was an isolated instance and so far she is right!   Update January 2019: It’s a new year and Briar is already 4.5 yrs old, wow time flies! We have worked out a specific food for him mixed with Metamucil and he is doing much better about getting to the litter box now. Still sometimes he has accidents but we are pleased that it is somewhat better and if you are looking to help support him the food is Fancy feast (Gravy Lovers chicken feast in grilled chicken flavor gravy).   Update January 2020: Briar continues to do well and he is just such a great cat and, besides cleaning up if he has an accident, his food mixture is very easy to do. And we also give him a Vitamin B12 shot weekly to help with absorption of nutrients; he’s very good about it. And like any long-hair cat, he gets Petromalt during shedding seasons - which he loves.Update November 2020: Covid hasn't affected this sweetie!!!!! Briar is doing really well.  We have his diarrhea even more firmed up, fine tuning the mixture of canned with metamucil, but still he can't control always making it to the litter tray, so he does have a room all his own, and we take that little extra effort to prep his meals. He also gets Vitamin B injections to insure proper levels of Vitamin B, since with diarrhea that is always a concern of lack of that nutrient.  You can tell he is doing well though, such a handsome boy and very shiny, thick, healthy coat and right body index.  Briar's just such a loving cat it's quite amazing the great guy he is, so rewarding to care for him, he flips on his side and back when he sees you like heh aren't I handsome!  He'd be perfect in a non-carpeted home with easy to clean floors.February 2024 -Wow Brair is still with us and going strong.  Sadly no other forever home has come along, though we and he are all hoping it will!He is doing very well and last year we tested his Vit. B levels and found we could stop those weekly shots, so he is even more happy, as being poked weekly wasn't his favorite thing!  He is a very happy kitty in general, and being Maine Coon X - a total pleasure, as he so loves people and is a very uncomplaining cat.  He will be celebrating his 10th birthday this year in May - and we will be sure to give him his favorite temptation hairball treats in his treat ball, with a few extra so he can really enjoy the hunt!

Foggy is a quirky, playful, clever little girl who will melt your heart, along with her brother, Nimbo. What she lacks in confidence she makes up for in spunk and spirit, Though shy, she cannot resist the lure of a wand toy and loses all inhibitions when the toys come out. It takes time and patience to gain her trust but her purr motor is as big and strong as Nimbo's.  This clever girl is a master of stealth when it comes to playtime. She loves hiding and pouncing on her brother and the resident cats, providing endless entertainment. Foggy and Nimbo love other cats, and fit in well with a household with existing cats. One of her favorite toys is the rolling spiral, which she will chase all over the place with boundless energy. If you want to see her in action, a feather wand will always entice her out of her hiding spots and into the open. Foggy and her brother Nimbo are a bonded pair, so they need to be adopted together. They balance each other perfectly: Foggy’s stealthy and clever play complements Nimbo’s playful and outgoing nature. Prior to adoption, all kittens are spayed/neutered, tested for FIV/FELV, vaccinated and microchipped. Kittens under 5 months old must be adopted with a buddy or into a house where there's a kitten-friendly pet. This kitten is currently in a foster home. To meet this kitten, please fill out an adoption application so that we'll have your contact information, and we'll get back to you as soon as possible. www.thedancingcat.org/adoptNovember 6, 2024, 10:11 am

Nimbo is an adorable guy with ear floof and a squirrel tail who loves to play, pounce, and cuddle! If you’re looking for an entertaining kitten who will always make you laugh, Nimbo is the one for you! This little cutie has a serious weakness for Churu treats and he will drop everything and come running when you get out the treats. Nimbo makes himself at home quickly climbing on your lap and easily makes friends with other cats, and adores being picked up and showered with scritches. Once he’s in your arms, his loud and content purr will let you know just how happy he is to be close to you. His easy-going nature makes him a wonderful addition to any family. He enjoys the company of people and will let you pick him up most of the time, especially if it means more cuddles! Nimbo is the outgoing big brother to his even more playful but shyer sister, Foggy, so they’ll need to be adopted together. If you’re looking for a pair of loving, playful kittens who are also partners in crime to complete your home, Nimbo and Foggy are the perfect match!

Meet Dallas and Simon, a bonded pair of littermates who are as loving as they are unique! At 9 years old, these two have spent their lives together, forming a strong bond that makes them inseparable. Dallas, a gorgeous Maine Coon, is affectionate and friendly with a curious streak. He loves toys that move, especially string toys, and enjoys watching the world outside from a sunny window. He's a fan of being brushed and likes to keep tabs on where his people and his cat friend, Simon, are at all times. Dallas is the more outgoing of the pair and enjoys being close to his favorite humans. Simon, a beautiful Siamese, is a sweet and gentle soul. Although he can be timid in new surroundings, he’s already showing his trusting nature by occasionally coming out to explore and greet you. Once comfortable, he’ll prove to be just as curious and playful as Dallas, with a soft demeanor that makes him the perfect companion. Both cats sleep together and keep an eye out for each other, providing endless comfort and companionship. Their affectionate bond extends to their human companions as well, making them a truly special pair that brings warmth and joy to any home.

Hi my name is Tteobokki. I am a mother of 6 little ones. I was found by a really nice lady who saw me in a dog crate with my 1 week old kittens. She contacted Safe Cat and here I am. I am very sweet, calm and mellow cat. I get along with other cats and would do well with children too! I love lickable treats and will literally beg for them. Since i am so food motivated, you can probably teach me to do many things. Look at my ear tuffs, i may be a Maine Coon mix! Please text or call Wanda at (925)872-0589 to find out how i can be a part of your forever family.

We have been fostering a litter of stray kittens we rescued on the streets in Milpitas, CA, providing stable human bonding, shelter, food, and care to prepare them for their forever homes. We have two left—one female and one male, both about 6 months old. They are fixed and up to date on vet check-ups, vaccines, and deworm/fecal tests, with medical records available. These healthy, stable kittens are ready for a loving family. Link, pictured above is looking for a loving family, ideally with another cat or dog as a playmate and we guarantee you will fall in love with his personality. We have another cat Layla, if you are interested in a pair of cats. Layla is 6 months old and female. We have spent $700+ on these two cats to get them vaccinated and checked up along with fixing each cat.
