Story
Kiki is 14 years old and in great health. I have had her since we adopted her as a kitten. She has been a great cat and when we brought her to the vet last year they couldn’t believe she was her age, they said she didn’t seem older than 7. She has been indoor her whole life and eats great food and has an automatic litter box. She is very loving and loves to snuggle and is very vocal. We had another cat previously with her and she really didn’t enjoy the company. She prefers to be a single cat home. We noticed as soon as the other cat was gone that she was much happier and relaxed. I would love to see her go to a great home where she would be the only animal. She has many years left to love. I can give you all of her items and auto litter box, to make for a very easy transition.

Story
I am fostering a 4ish year old black tabby named Miguel who I rescued from a friend who found him outside of a trashcan (his sister was inside it an didnt make it). He is neutered with all of his vaccines, loves my Pitbull and senior cat and chasing bugs in the grass. He is a bit timid of new people at first but warms up quickly and loves to cuddle. His favorite thing to do is hold hands while he sleeps :) He needs to go to a home that would allow him to be an indoor/outdoor cat.

Story
Meet Darlington! The only reason this sweet loverboy is up for adoption is because he belonged to my late stepmother, who recently and unexpectedly died. He's not shy at all. Loves to receive all the pets he can get, cuddle while watching TV, and loves to chatter — but not in an annoying way. Quiet vocals, but frequent when around humans. Super savvy and can take care of himself for the most part. His parents' were huge NASCAR fans, hence the name. **Please consider that Darlington is an outdoor cat, as he never got his spraying under control (even though he has been neutered) and runs in the opposite direction of litter boxes.** I will not be charging any fees for his adoption. Please let me know if you are interested in meeting him! Cheers.

Story
My 10 month old kitty has some leftover neurological damage from FIP. He’s incontinent, but it’s not constant. When he plays too hard he’ll pee. I know it’s not an ideal situation, but he is the sweetest boy. If there’s someone with you to help, you can absolutely get him in a kitty diaper. It’s just me so I have a very hard time doing it. He super affectionate and will follow you everywhere. He loves to play. He’s good with other cats. He might be a little shy around new people at first but he warms up very quickly. If you are comfortable expressing his bladder a couple of times a day and then keep him in a diaper for the rest, that would be the perfect home for him. He’s neutered and up to date on his shots, and microchipped. I live in a small studio apartment and can no longer care for him like he needs. If you have any questions please reach out. Thank you .

Bmo is a street rescue and 5 years old. He's very sweet and loves to cuddle. I have another cat, he peacefully coexists with her but doesn't love to play. I work a lot and he's left home alone all day, he needs a home where someone can spend more time with him.

Story
Meet Max! Max is a sweet boy who loves being around his humans. He is very vocal, especially to let you know that he is hungry. His favorite activity is to watch birds through an open window or sitting in his enclosed catio. He enjoys getting brushed and playing with wand toys. Although not a big fan of getting picked up or carried, Max absolutely loves spreading out next to you or on your lap and getting pets. He can lay for hours purring and content. He doesn't mind giving plenty of head butts when he wants attention. Max is sensitive to changes and would love a family who can support him when he's feeling nervous. He would love to be the only cat in the home so that he can have lots of pets and attention.

Ruby and her sister Tris are 11 years old and very sweet and mellow. Ruby is a white and grey shorthair with blue eyes. They are well behaved and love to play. My mother is moving to an assisted living situation and cannot bring the cats with her. They are very loved and this breaks our hearts but they will do well in a good home.

Story
Koa is a beautiful and full of life kitty. Koa was rescued from a parking lot, after a maintenance worker reported he heard a small cat crying. The worker knew I had experience with cats and asked if I could help. I already had 3 cats at home and felt it would be a challenge to foster Koa. But his sweet face and cries could not be denied. I took Koa and prayed he would make it in the next few weeks. Koa came home with an eye infection and was underweight. We believe mama separated from Koa or abandoned him. But love and a good doctor made all the difference. It was never my intention to keep Koa. I have a busy schedule and already have three cats in a small place. Koa has a warrior spirit, hence the name. He is confident and adapts well. He is loving and fun. He deserves a household that can give him undivided attention, stimulation, a family of his own. Koa learned to socialize quickly with my three cats and our dog Rocky. He is fearless and enjoys short walks outside our patio.

Story
We are currently moving to a new apartment and unfortunately we can not bring Peach with us, we really don’t want to let her go, will miss her a lot and last thing we want is to have to take her to a shelter, so we are hoping to find a loving and patient home for her, she can be very sweet and loving but she does have a lot of anxiety, so you have to be extremely gentle with her, but she is not aggressive at all.

These pups are in Long Beach, California too!

Squirt was born to stray cats by our house. Her parents were unowned and unhomed. She's very mellow and affectionate. She likes to play and chase toy mice. She's very sweet and petite. She's bonded with our boy cat Junior and they both need the same home. He is solid white in color. She is very active and playful. She is just about 22 months old. She loves puree treats and loves to snuggle on chilly days. You've got to meet Squirt. She is a Bombay mix and they were bred to be very affectionate.
