Story
Rooster is bonded with Bijoux, their mom got out one night for a wild time with the boy cat next door. Their mom is a long hair brown tabby and their dad looks like bijoux. Rooster was the runt of the litter and is the cuddliest of all of them. She will come lay on my hip while I’m laying on my side with my daughter. She is not fixed and has potential for long haired dual eye color babies and her dad was white. She’s a sweetie and loves to run on her cat wheel and if you want it we can give it to you if you take both cats. She was born 2/16/22. We have older kids so we know they are good with older kids but unknown with young kids.

Story
Bijoux is bonded with rooster Bijoux is kind of a jerk. She knows she’s beautiful so she struts her stuff. She doesn’t like pets, unless she’s in the right mood- and only sometimes will cuddle. She loves her sister Rooster though. And she loves running on her cat wheel. If you adopt them we will give you their cat wheel. Bijoux means little jewel, which matches her two different colored eyes. Shes bigger than rooster so there’s no territorial discussions. They both are good at the litter box and were born 2/16/22. Their mom is a long hair brown tabby and dad is a feral white spotted shorthair.

Story
Meet Timmy! He was adopted from the San Diego Humane Society at 8 weeks old and is now 10 months (Aries baby). If you’re looking for a cat that loves to play & cuddle, Timmy is the perfect cat for you. He loves to play with wand toys, lasers, and running through tubes. He does enjoy going on a leash and exploring the outdoors (always supervised), so he would make a great adventure cat as well! Unfortunately, our older cat does not get along with Timmy since his energy is quite high. Timmy would do best with another companion that loves to play. He has not been socialized with dogs yet.

Guayaba is the epitome of "Cat"~ she plays by her own rules and is o.k. with it !! Sometimes she is extremely affectionate, other times shyer and prefers time to herself. She needs to be understood and find the perfect discerning cat owner, to appreciate that she's finicky and amazing.....just the way she is. Once placed in her forever home, Guayaba may show more sides to her complicated personality.
