My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

How this pet arrived:
Oliver was brought in by his previous owner on April 6, 2024.

Why this pet is the one for you:
Meet Oliver and Charles Elvis #900544, a delightful bonded pair looking for their new home together. Charles and Oliver are inseparable companions who share a deep bond, and it's essential they stay together as they navigate their journey into a new home. Both are sensitive souls who would thrive best in a tranquil environment without the presence of dogs or young children. A calm and serene atmosphere will help them feel safe and secure as they adjust to their new surroundings. Due to their fearful nature, they will likely require an extended period of confinement for acclimation. This means providing them with a quiet and secluded space where they can gradually become familiar with their new environment at their own pace. Building trust with them is key to their successful integration into your home. Spend time near their hiding spots, offering them treats and meals to associate positive experiences with your presence. Ensure that their safe space offers plenty of hiding spaces both low and high for Charles and Oliver to retreat to when they feel overwhelmed or anxious. This will give them a sense of security and control over their environment. It's important to respect Charles and Oliver's boundaries and not force interactions or touch upon them. Allow them to approach you on their terms and let the relationship develop naturally over time. Grab a couple of cat carriers and ask an Adoption Counselor for more information!

San Diego Humane Society, an open-admission shelter, is creating a more humane world by inspiring compassion and advancing the welfare of animals and people. Our lifesaving safety net has helped San Diego become the largest city in the U.S. to keep healthy and treatable shelter animals from being euthanized. We are a private, independent, nonprofit organization that is not affiliated with any other humane society or society for the prevention of cruelty to animals.

With campuses in El Cajon, Escondido, Oceanside, Ramona and San Diego, we provide animal services for 14 cities within San Diego County.
