Story
We adopted Chanel from a shelter here in Carson, California. I still have the adoption papers. She is 3 years old I think. She has been spayed. Is a chubby cat and likes to eat. We adopted her almost 2 years ago, but my daughter is leaving town for college far away and we are too busy to take care of the cat. Because we want Chanel to go to a good home, we are offering $200 CASH incentive to prospective adopters.

Story
Cleo is a very friendly, curious and playful kitty. She is the biggest snuggle bug ever and loves sleeping in cozy necks. She's approximately 2.5 years old and we adopted her from a close family friend who was fostering her with her 8 littermates. She used to be best friends with her sister Pepper but when we were out of town over one year ago she decided she was her worst enemy. After lots of cat training and patience we unfortunately haven't been able to reverse this which is why we are looking to rehome her. She is a wonderful cat, pristine with her litter box, doesn't scratch furniture and is a great listener. Cleo is very attached to her owner, Emilie and will need some patience to warm up to a new family. We would not suggest she goes to a home who is not familiar with cats.

Story
A sweet black cat showed up in my door crying for my help, I feed him and he left. Comes back every day until one day I noticed he was getting big (thinking is a male), then I realize “ SHE “was pregnant, not long time passed when she was ready to have her babies and I brought her inside, she delivered 5 beautiful kitties on Oct 9,2023. After 8 weeks 2 kittens were adopted by a neighbor and I’m still have Kathy the-mom and 3 beautiful young princess. I have been taking care of them , hoping to find the right people that love them the way I do.Unfortunately I can’t keep them because it’s prohibited to have cats inside or outside the place I’m renting. They are the sweetest kittens I could ask for. I gave them a lot of love and I feel my heart will break if they don’t go and make someone out there special as they do to me. They enjoy to go out and they respect boundaries , after they spend some minutes out they come back inside and just chilled watching through the window.

Story
Bella was born on an oil recycling plant, she’s one of three kittens that were born. When one of the sibling passed away we knew we had to get her and her other sibling out of there. Unfortunately we were only able to get Bella and the state of the other kitten is unknown. We’ve had Bella for about four-five months now and she’s a sweet sweet angel ! While a bit skittish at first once she warmed up she became an unstoppable play thing and got along very well with our other cats. Her favorite things are being wrapped up in a blanket burrito and belly rubs ! That’s how she got her little nick-name Belly. She’s a beautiful baby girl who deserves a loving and permanent home.

Story
Streak is a beautiful and friendly cat. I rescued her from the dumpster as a kitten along with her brother and sister. Unfortunately, she does not get along with them. It's possible that she would get along with other cats that aren't her siblings, but I don't know. She is very friendly with all humans and loves to sit/sleep in your lap. No major health issues or special food, although we do give her probiotics occasionally for her tummy. We love her, however, I think she would be happier in a single cat household as she likes to be the center of attention. My house is probably too small for 3 cats. So, I would like to find her a loving home. She would be a great companion for someone who likes the company of a friendly, warm, cuddly cat. She will sleep with her human every night and comes out regularly when I arrive home to say hello. I hope that we can find her a good home where she can be the prima donna of the house.

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.
