“Java”, a beautiful brown tabby cat was found as part of a cat colony, living in a creek bed behind a gas station. A trapping session ensued, and everyone was brought safely into foster care. All cleaned up nicely, and Java has spent some time in the foster home learning that these “human” creatures can be pretty good buddies after all. He is 4-1/2 years old and has been waiting for a while, hoping to find his forever home.
Java is an inquisitive kitty and likes to give all visitors’ hands a very thorough sniff. He’s still a little shy due to his rough start in life, but a little patience will pay off big time; he LOVES a good petting session and will rev up the purr-motor for a quiet and gentle touch. While he’s past the super crazy kitten stage, he’s still quite energetic and loves toys, especially the jingle ball and the kitty fishing rod.
Because he is still a bit shy and will need an acclimation period to his new home, Java is looking for a household with some prior cat experience and without small children. He gets along beautifully with other cats -- you can see him in the photo snuggling with his buddy, Annie. He could be a great choice if you are looking for a buddy for your current cat, or, he and Annie could also be adopted together as a pair.
Java has been neutered, vaccinated, and tested FIV/FELV negative. He took to using the litterbox like a pro! There is an adoption donation to the Feral Cat Foundation (an all-volunteer organization, which helped get him out of a bad situation and provided all of his medical care) to help us continue our work with homeless cats.

More about this rescue
The Feral Cat Foundation (FCF) is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization whose primary mission is to help people live with the feral and forgotten cats and kittens in the communities of Alameda and Contra Costa counties of northern California. We accomplish this through the nationally-recognized and effective method of "TNR" (trap-neuter-return). When possible, tame cats and kittens are adopted to loving homes. Cats that cannot be socialized are returned to the location where they were trapped and fed daily by caring volunteers. The lack of resources and a sanctuary prevent FCF from being able to take owner surrenders, rescue cats from shelters, or remove cats from neighborhoods.
