My personality

My story

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

Meet Sawyer!

A charming nine-and-a-half-year-old Domestic Short Hair currently in Oceanside, CA, whose essence is a soulful blend of cuddly devotion and quirky charisma wrapped in a sleek black coat.

Sawyer is the kind of feline who lives for companionship. Whether he's curling up under the covers for a daytime nap, brushing up against your leg for attention, or perching at the window to chirp at birds, he’s always delighting in the simple pleasures of home life. He absolutely thrives when his favorite human is nearby! His ideal match is a calm, cat-savvy homebody who understands the beauty of quiet connection and long, cozy days spent together.

This affectionate boy is a true conversationalist. He'll greet you at the door with his charming meows, chat about his day, and follow you like a faithful shadow as you move from room to room. Brushing time? He adores it! Lap cuddles? He’s there in a heartbeat! He even has a soft spot for stuffed animals when he’s feeling playful.

Sawyer's heart is as big as his personality, but he does have some special needs. He experiences separation anxiety, especially during moments when he senses his person may be leaving like hearing a shower or watching the morning routine. While this can lead to brief moments of aggression, his daily anti-anxiety medication has made a significant difference, helping him feel much more at ease! He's also neutered and fully vaccinated, making him ready for a fresh start.

Sawyer would be happiest in a peaceful, pet-free home where someone is around often to give him the affection and structure he craves. He isn’t compatible with other pets and would do best with an experienced caregiver who can continue supporting his emotional well-being with patience, love, and consistency.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will fill your days with soft purrs, meaningful eye contact, and spirited conversations, could Sawyer be the one to curl up beside you?

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our ultimate goal is to unite as many animals with loving pet parents as possible, so we strive to make it easy to adopt a dog or cat you have fallen in love with. All we ask is that you fill out an adoption application so that we have all the information we need to determine that you'll be able to provide a safe and compassionate home to one of our rescued pets. Once approved, all you need to do is sign our adoption agreement form and provide an adoption donation so that we can continue to save more animals every day and unite them with families just like yours.
