Turkish Van kittens & cats in La Mesa, California

Joaquín is a playful and affectionate 1.5-year-old white-and-orange cat with a vibrant personality. He loves chasing toys, leaping around, and exploring his surroundings with endless curiosity. When he’s not showing off his athletic side, Joaquín enjoys scratching his cat toys and occasionally showering his humans with love, sometimes with playful nibbles. He’s been an indoor-only cat his whole life and thrives in a safe indoor environment. While he gets along with other cats, Joaquín plays a bit rough, so he may be happiest as a solo pet or with a high-energy feline friend. If you’re looking for a fun, spirited companion, Joaquín is ready to bring joy to your home!

*** Katy is in a foster home ***White w/black patches Turkish Van mix, long hair, spayed female, born approx. 10/1/22, #18044Cats: likes Dogs: cat-savvy canines Children: adults onlyAlong with the rest of her litter, Katy was rescued from the streets as a young kitten. The family made their way to The Rescue House, and in foster care, they began to flourish. During her time there, we noticed that Katy has chronically weepy and slightly red eyes—the right more so than the left. We took her to the ophthalmologist, and she is on a regimen of three separate types of eye drops administered twice daily to address the issue. Even though things are under control, she requires follow-ups every six months to ensure nothing has changed. With that sorted and all of her siblings adopted, Katy now is ready to find her forever home too! On most days, you can find Katy embracing the true San Diego spirit by soaking up the sun in her favorite spot by the window! (In Katy’s opinion, naps are a must after breakfast or an afternoon of games and frolicking with her foster friends, so why not pick a sunny spot for a snooze?) Speaking of meals, Katy loves food and is vocal about making sure you know when it’s time to eat! Katy’s other favorite activity is playing. In terms of activities, she adores interactive wand toy sessions with you and boogying down on the playground with her feline companions! While she appreciates wrestling, cuddling, and romping around with kitten pals, she also is able to be independent and self-entertain. Adopting this playful sun-worshipping gastronome isn’t just for anyone. She is going to need a very special person who understands that she is exceptionally timid and reserved. Katy takes time to trust and form bonds with people. Not one to ever kiss on the first date, Katy expects you to put in the work to earn her affection and not to rush her as she settles in. Katy prefers to explore gingerly at her pace and retreat back to her safe space (under a bed) when she feels overwhelmed or afraid. Once she eventually lets her guard down, you will see an additional side to her. For example, if she thinks you have food or a treat, she will come out to greet you and do a little dance while meowing! Although she doesn’t necessarily want to be touched a bunch, Katy likes to be near her chosen person and enjoys affection on her terms.
