Story
Say hello to the famous Shakespeare! He is a really cool, buddy type cat who just wants to hang out with you! He is about 8 years old. He is robust in his health. A hearty cat! But he is also sensitive. He grew up in a very busy, active household with other animals, many people, and the household has undergone many changes throughout his life. The first five years of his life, he was ok with this, as long as he could escape the busy days by hanging out in the backyard. But for the past three years, he has been showing his family how flustered he is with so much commotion by marking outside the box. He needs access to a clean litter box of his own. Keeping the litter clean prevents accidents in the house/marking outside of the box. There are currently multiple boxes available, but they fill fast with multiple cats. He would therefore prefer to be the only cat, or paired with maybe just one other cat or a dog. But he would thrive in a quiet home. For more info, please ask!

Story
Carrot was previously known as Starfire, I got her from my brother's friend, who gave her away because she didn't get along with his other cats. I have recently moved and Carrot is now staying in a temporary place, as I wasn't able to take her with me since my situation is unstable at the moment and I couldn't bring her, unfortunately. She is 5 years old, very sweet and affectionate once she opens up to you and can be quite clingy. She is very vocal and playful, she particularly loves to play with rolled up napkins. She is wacky, silly, and just so very lovable that it hurts me deeply to give her away. I recently lost my two cats to old age and illness, I thought Carrot would be a foster in my care but I came to love her. She has been moved around from place to place so much, it has made her anxious and scared. I was hoping I could provide a stable house for her but of course, life happened and I was forced to move. She will be your best friend, sleeping and cuddling with you all day.

Story
Allie is the cuddliest cat I've known in 30+ years of living with them. Lie down on the couch and in no time you'll find her at your belly being your little spoon. Allie is well-disciplined and never jumps on tables or countertops. She is incredibly comfortable with company - at house parties with 40+ people, you'll see her rubbing up against ankles and getting all the pets and attention she can get. She freakishly enjoys fairly rough petting, and she's almost dog-like in that manner. Tug her ear, cradle her like a baby, ruffle her scruff and chungles - she'll take it all happily. This made her particularly tolerant of our toddler. We are rehoming because with our toddler we simply aren't able to pay the same attention to the kitty as before. We also travel between SF and Seattle often for family, and constantly relocating is tough on a kitty. https://phs-spca.org/adopt/cats/#action_0=pet&animalID_0=20701235&petIndex_0=18

Story
We adopted Sardine from a rescue in mid-April, 2020. She was the sweetest, most curious, kind-hearted, affectionate, playful girl from the start. Sardine is 5 1/2 years old, and such a joy to have in our lives. Unfortunately my work is taking us to Europe, therefore I have made the very tough decision to try and find her a loving home in San Francisco, rather than subject her to the stresses of moving so far away. Sardine loves to stalk butterflies and lay in the sun in our safe, protected garden in Russian Hill, but spends 90% of her time indoors. We call her Dinie and she loves to curl up on the sofa and cuddle, is quite playful and curious about anything she might play with, and has responded well to all training. She does not scratch our furniture (we trim her nails carefully, regularly) and bathe her. Dinie does not like to be left alone for long hours, or overnight and has not responded positively to children or dogs. We suspect sardine would love a kitten/cat companion!

Story
Hello, I am Seymour, a very handsome 8 year old male tuxedo cat. While you are working, I will be your best pal -- sitting next to you and purring, and I would love to curl up at the end of your bed at night. I am very smart and can sit up and give you a fist bump for treats. I also particularly love a box or to play with you with a string! I am not a big drinker so I do well with special food to keep my kidneys at their best, or at a minimum with some no salt chicken broth mixed in with my food. I have been kind of stressed lately and so need a new home where I will thrive -- a quiet home with no children or other pets and with someone who will give me love and affection. Come meet me and you will want to take me home with you!! I come with a great enclosed cat box, toys, and my own food.

Story
I fostered Coco for my girlfriend until she could get back on her feet. She never did. I now have had him since 2022. I travel too much, have a small place and am a single Mom. Coco is very affectionate and loves people. He gets along with everyone including animals. I have a 2nd cat as well that I originally had before Coco. I would love for them both to find a loving home together if possible.
