American Shorthair kittens & cats in Temecula, California

Penny is a very quiet, gentle soul. She spends most of her day sleeping on her fluffy bed. She gets along well with other friendly kitties, but takes some time to warm up to the new household. If you are interested in adopting this sweet girl please contact fosterhueysrescue@gmail.com for more info

Minnie and her brother Sonny are a sweet, friendly, gentle pair of kitties! They are very easy going and affectionate, especially Sonny. They are OK with other friendly cats, but would be just as happy as the only felines in the house. They haven't been around kids but would probably be OK with gentle, well mannered children. They are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. Minnie and Sonny will be available for adoption this Saturday (12/16) at Kahoots in Temecula from 10am to 2pm.

Mama cat aka DeMommy is a sweet, quiet, "chunky monkey". She is a bit shy at first but warms up once she gets to know you. She loves pets on the head and scritches right above her tail. She is okay with other mellow cats and would probably do best in a relaxed household. If you are interested in this darling girl please contact fosterhueysrescue@gmail.com

Toby Wan Kenobi is a sweet and friendly little guy who is looking for a patient and loving home. He's a handsome boy with an interesting face and the cutest little chirpy meow! He's a playful lovebug who loves head scratches and giving head butts in return. While he is very friendly and comfortable meeting new people, he takes some time to adjust to new spaces. He would do well to have a smaller space at first while he adjusts to his new home, and it might take him some time to be comfortable enough to venture out into the house. Toby has some anxious tendencies and has a history of pulling out his fur or over-grooming as a form of self soothing. His anxiety is currently being managed with a medication that is easily administered by rubbing onto his inner ear once a day. Due to his anxious nature, he would do best in a calm and quiet home without young children. He used to have a sister who he was bonded with, so he may do well with other cats but would prefer a home without other pets. Toby would love a family that is committed to giving him time and space to get comfortable in his new home, and to make him feel safe and loved. Please consider giving this sweet boy the loving forever home that he deserves! Toby will be available for adoption this Saturday (12/7) at PETCO in Temecula from 10am to 2pm.

Meet Sully: The Sweetest Boy You’ll Ever Meet! Sully is a 1-year-old bundle of love who is ready to find his forever home! This charming boy is the total package—cuddly, loving, funny, and outgoing.

He’s just waiting for the perfect person or family to give him all the love he deserves! If you’re ready to welcome Sully into your heart and home, reach out today.

It breaks my heart to write this, but I’m looking for a new home for our sweet 4-year-old cat, Mischief. This has been an incredibly difficult decision for my family, but we know it's what's best for him. Mischief is a gentle, affectionate boy who thrives in calm and quiet environments. He loves to cuddle when the house is peaceful and would be the perfect companion for someone who can offer him a low-stress home. Unfortunately, with three kids, two other cats, and constant changes in our home, Mischief’s anxiety has worsened. Despite trying everything—different litter boxes, anti-anxiety medications, and more—he continues to struggle with the chaos of our busy household. We are searching for a home with no other pets or children, where Mischief can feel safe and loved. He’s such a sweet, loving cat when things are calm, and I know he will thrive in the right environment.

Penelope is 7 years old, we found her and her brother as kittens abandoned by their mom. We handraised them both and love them dearly. She is a very loving cat that loves to cuddle and has never scratched or bitten us. Although we hate to part with her, we recently moved to an area with feral cats and had a baby, which has been too much for Penelope. She is stressed out and acting out by going outside of her litterbox. We have tried to the best of our abilities to help her including going to the vet but it has been a year and we have reached our limits. As much as it breaks our hearts to have to give her up we have to put our child's health first. We are hoping to find another loving family who can provide a stable and calm environment for her to thrive.

We have been caring for White Paws for about 3 months since she and her litter were abandoned by neighbors. She is very affectionate and friendly. She has a mellow personality, yet is very playful (loves her toy mouse!) and gets along well with everyone. She is about 8 months old. We already have two cats and cannot keep her, she would make a wonderful addition to your family!

Pp is a beloved family pet. We have had her for over 2 years. She is an avid hunter of all things creepy and crawling as well as birds 🐦. This has caused a problem with our neighbors unfortunately and this is why we need to rehome her. She will make an excellent family addition.

PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW. IT WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. If you still have questions after, we are happy to respond through email. It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. The average lifespan of a cat is 13 to 20 years. Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. So don't let that discourage you from adopting an adult cat! ABEL and KANE were saved from the shelter. They were unsocial and sick. Now he is ready to be adopted. Meet ABEL a shy American Short Hair Bombay Mix from San Jacinto, California whose essence is a delicate blend of timidity and charm wrapped in a sleek gray coat. ABEL is a shy and reserved fellow, preferring to take his time to get comfortable in new surroundings. He often finds solace in quiet corners, where he can observe his environment from a safe distance. But don't let his initial reticence fool you – beneath that reserved exterior lies a heart full of warmth and curiosity, just waiting for the right moment to shine. One of ABEL's favorite pastimes is watching TV. He is particularly fond of nature documentaries, where he can watch the graceful movements of other animals, or sometimes he enjoys the occasional animated film. There's something soothing about the flickering screen that captures his attention, providing hours of quiet entertainment. ABEL also has a special relationship with his cat tree. This towering structure of feline delight is his sanctuary, a place where he can climb, scratch, and perch to his heart's content. Whether he's napping in one of its cozy cubbies or surveying his domain from the highest platform, ABEL's cat tree is his happy place, offering both comfort and adventure in equal measure. Though ABEL may seem aloof at first, he has a unique way of showing affection once he feels secure. He might nuzzle your hand or softly purr as he curls up beside you. His gentle nature and calm demeanor make him an ideal companion for a patient and understanding family who appreciates the quiet joys of life. ABEL is best suited to a peaceful home where he can settle in at his own pace. He would thrive in an environment without too much hustle and bustle, perhaps with a few sunny spots to lounge in and, of course, a dedicated TV time for his favorite shows. His ideal family will understand that good things come to those who wait and will cherish the special bond that forms with a cat like Abel. Are you ready to give Abel the loving home he deserves and share in the quiet, heartwarming moments of companionship he offers? If so, can't wait to meet you and start this new chapter of his life together. Reach out to us to make ABEL part of your family today. ********************* ABEL IS AVAILABLE FOR FOSTER TO ADOPT ********************* ABEL is an AMERICAN SHORT HAIR / BOMBAY MIX.
