Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Mister was left on the porch of our local cat rescue with his brother Tabby. Unfortunately the rescue shut down earlier this summer and is looking for a forever home for this bonded pair. They have been housed with other cats, but have not bonded with them as much as we had hoped for, so we are not sure how they would be in a home with other cats. Mister loves to be petted and is even young enough to get the zoomies now and then. Tabby and Mister also do like to play with each other from time to time. Even though we don't know much about their lives before they were dropped off we know that they deserve the best home possible to make the rest of their lives wonderful. If you are interested in adopting this bonded pair please complete the application process. Tabby's bio and pictures can be found here: https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/42915277-running-springs-california-cat

Story
Momma Kitty was a neighborhood stray who had been abandoned by a previous owner. Current owner & neighbors all fed her. Current owner brought her inside when she noticed she was sick. Elderly owner now has dementia and has been hospitalized/assisted living care since Jan 2024. Current caretakers & vet have addressed all her major health issues BUT she is a special needs kitty because she has feline leukemia, so she can't be in a home with other cats. She has gone from 5 lbs in Jan to 11 lbs in Oct. She is not on any medications at this time. Is on Hills Prescription Digestive Care cat food. She may not need it any longer as she did have some other issues which are no longer present. There are 14 cats left behind in less than ideal conditions. We are working on rehoming the others, but Momma Kitty is the most loving of all the cats; she would rather petted than eat. She is a sweet talker & playful. Current caretaker has full power of attorney for adoption purposes
