My story

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

Maggie is a sweet, affectionate, and mellow companion with a playful streak and a silly side that shines once she feels safe. Her days revolve around a peaceful routine of breakfast, naps, toy time, sunbathing, and following her favorite humans from room to room. She’s a little shy at first, but once she warms up, she’ll reward your patience with cuddles, purrs, and gentle affection.

Maggie’s story began in a parking lot colony, where she battled a severe eye infection before being rescued and given a second chance at the cozy, happy life she deserves. Now fully recovered, this gentle girl is ready to find a forever home filled with love, patience, and treats (lots of treats).


Maggie would do best in a quiet, calm home with adults or older kids, where she can feel secure and loved. She’s friendly with other cats after slow introductions, but not a fan of dogs. She’s litter box trained, clean, well-behaved, and microchipped, and she’s already spayed, vaccinated, and treated for fleas and worms — healthy and ready to move in!

If you’re looking for a calm, loyal, and loving companion who enjoys cozy naps, gentle playtime, and your company nearby, Maggie might just be your perfect match.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is designed with the pet and the family in mind. We look to make the process as easy and efficient as possible for our adopters, while also preserving the key safeguards that ensure we place our kitties with loving homes they can be sure to stay with forever. Sometimes we may ask for a virtual home visit via video or FaceTime to gain more insight into what kind of kitty will best fit your lifestyle and environment.

Go meet their pets

Friends of Normie is an entirely foster based rescue so all of our adoptable cats reside with their foster families who are located across Orange, LA, San Bernardino, and San Diego counties. We have a kitty for every family and locale, so we will work to match you with a feline friend who matches both your desires and your location.

More about this shelter

It all started in 2020 when Friends of Normie founder Ladan Davia found a mother cat and six kittens on the side of the road. All of the shelters and rescues she called in hopes of ensuring this feline family’s safety told her to leave them outside or that they were at capacity. So Ladan went to her local hardware store, bought a trap, and set up a makeshift shelter for the seven cats in her bathroom.

Through the local cat network Ladan got connected to Marla, a rescuer with 25 years of rescue experience. Together, they rescued thousands of cats over the next two years, setting the foundation for what Friends of Normie is today. Without a physical facility, Marla and Ladan utilized a network of committed volunteer fosters to give new rescues temporary, loving homes until they were adopted. Along the way, FON harnessed the power of social media to mobilize the Southern California cat community.

This community began to gain traction as more and more people began following its journey. Today, Friends of Normie has over 44,000 followers who support the rescue and collectively help cats get matched with fosters and adopters quickly.
