Story
She came to me with a bone infection from a crushed paw and she was in the process of giving birth. Multiple treatments later and lots of love, all of her kittens were adopted, she is all healed, and looking for a new home. She likes to sit next to you and put her paw on your leg while you give her belly rubs and butt scratches. She does have asthma and is submissive to other cats so just need to make sure she is drinking and eating and she should stay healthy. She is scared of heights and prefers to keep four paws on the floor. She is looking for a parent that is chill and mellow and works from home or is retired. She would prefer to be an only cat and is timid with kids so please no kids in the home. She is currently in Indiana with me but can be delivered to the right home.

Story
This girl came to me with 5 babies from a shelter where she was abused and had skin peeled off her face in 4 places and she was in shock and couldn't move for a day. Over time her health improved, she put on weight, and she learned to snuggle with me and her foster. We believe she was born feral since she was caught outside. She is doing so much better and the doctor cleared her to get adopted. She is now super cuddly and likes to be picked up and have her head scratched. She needs a mellow adult that has a quiet house and either works from home or is retired. No other cats in the house because they tend to beat her up, and no kids. She is currently in Indiana with me but can be delivered to the right home.

Story
This kitten was caught in Hemet with her 2 siblings. She is very shy but does break out of her shell a bit with a kitten friend so she would need to be adopted with another kitten, or have a cat already in the house that she can bond with. I took her to Indiana with me to start socializing her, as the last foster didn't have time. She hisses at first but lets you pet her after she gets to know you.

Story
This little guy came from the streets of Hemet with his brother Fluff ball. Splotch likes to lay in his cat hammock and watch TV. He is very confident and a little cocky while he is testing the limit of the springs in his legs. He is playful and affectionate and an all around great cat. He is also goofy and contorts into funny positions. He is currently in Indiana with me but can be delivered to the right home.

Story
This girl weaned a litter of kittens, and had been terribly abused at the shelter. She had been hit with something sharp on the head cracking her skull and causing emotional trauma. She has since physically healed but she still needs more time before trusting humans again. She has gotten better with allowing people near her to clean her litter box, feed her, change bedding, ect. She is hoping for a home where the people have patience and will sit in the room and talk to her. She hisses at first with new people but then likes to watch you talk to her. It may take awhile but I think she has the capacity to trust again. She is now in Marion Indiana still available for adoption, she can be delivered to the right home. She should not go to a home with other cats she doesn't seem to like them, and no kids.
