My story

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

Hi! My name is Starr and here is a little more about me :

My Journey
I’m about a year and a half old and still very much in my “life is a full-contact sport” era. I’m looking for a home that understands my energy and is ready to embrace it.

My Social Life
I would thrive with another high-energy, active kitty who can keep up with my play style. Play isn’t just something I enjoy — it’s my purpose.
I’ll need proper, slow introductions with other pets and with kids to make sure everyone starts off comfortably. Once I’m settled, I’m deeply affectionate and bond closely with my people.

My Personality
Intense, affectionate, ridiculous, and deeply lovable.
Play is my calling, my purpose — possibly my religion. When the laser pointer appears, you are witnessing destiny in motion. Some cats need oxygen. I need daily, enthusiastic, unapologetic play.
Under all that energy, though, I’m a genuine cuddle bug. I love closeness. I’m a professional little spoon and will happily plant myself against you at night. I also love being held — once I feel secure, I absolutely melt.
I’m also extremely serious about food. Especially people food. I have no standards and no shame. Securing snacks properly will be important in my forever home.

I Enjoy…
Laser pointer sessions (life-changing experiences)
High-energy play with toys or another active kitty
Watching bug videos (8-bit music preferred)
Occasionally pouncing at the TV when fully committed
Being held and cuddling once I feel safe
Mealtime (and attempting bonus mealtimes)
I bring enthusiasm to everything I do.

I’m Not a Fan Of…
Boredom. I need daily engagement and outlets for my energy.
Unsecured food. (For your sake.)

What Makes Me Special
I’m the perfect combination of action hero and cuddle bug. I can go from full-throttle zoomies to melting in your arms. My intensity is matched only by my capacity for affection.
If you meet me where I am and give me the stimulation and structure I need, I will give you endless entertainment, devotion, and love in return.

My Perfect Home
I would thrive in a home that:
Has another energetic, playful cat
Is committed to daily interactive play
Understands the importance of slow introductions
Is ready to secure food like it’s a competitive sport
Wants both a high-energy athlete and a devoted snuggler
If you’re looking for a cat who lives loudly, loves deeply, and plays like

More about this rescue

Smittens isn’t just another cat rescue.
We are a coalition of volunteers with a spay/neuter mission, dedicated to helping both stray and owned animals in the greater San Diego area get fixed, receive veterinary care, and whatever else they may need! Smittens works with shelters and other rescues to route cats to proper vet care and eventual homes, and we take in stray cats who need help getting off the street. We also support TNR for feral cats, and assist cat and dog owners to get their own pets fixed and vaccinated at a low cost.
