My story

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

Hi! My name is Boogie and here is a bit more about me :

My Journey
I was rescued along with my mom and siblings when a kind trapper helped us during a TNR at a playground near Fiesta Island. I spent my early months outdoors, learning how to observe the world carefully. Thanks to Smittens Rescue, I was given the chance to discover indoor life—and I quickly realized that cozy beds and warm naps are much better than cold, windy nights outside.

My Social Life
Other cats ? My very favorite companion is my sister. I adore her and feel most confident when she’s nearby. I enjoy the company of my foster family’s cats and love wrestling and chasing with my feline friends.
Dogs ? Kids ? I haven’t met dogs or mini humans yet, and I’m a bit cautious around adults at first. I prefer getting to know people through interactive play—fetching ping-pong balls or dancing after feather toys is my favorite way to connect.

My Personality
Thoughtful, curious, and quietly adventurous.
I love snuggling in cozy cat beds with my sister and have learned a lot by carefully watching the adult cats in my foster home. I start off cautious, but once I feel safe, my adventurous side comes out. I enjoy creating little forts under the bed, exploring cat trees and tunnels, and settling into spots where I can relax and observe the world. One of my favorite pastimes is watching pigeons at the bird feeder or enjoying the sunset from my playpen hammock.

I Enjoy…
Chasing ping-pong balls and dribbling them around like a tiny soccer star
Swatting and leaping after feather wand toys
Cozy naps in cat beds, hammocks, and tunnels
Watching birds and outdoor activity from a safe, sunny window

I’m Not a Fan Of…
I’m still learning to fully trust people after growing up outdoors, so I appreciate slow, gentle introductions and patience. Once I realize I’m safe, I relax and truly enjoy indoor life—especially when it means staying warm and dry during San Diego winters!

What Makes Me Special
I’m a light brown tabby kitten, and my foster says I look a little like a tiny white tiger… rrrraaar! ??
My polite, respectful personality has even won over the adult cats in my foster home.

My Perfect Home
My ideal home is one where I can continue building confidence at my own pace. Having my sister Burpie by my side would make me happiest, but I’ve learned that I can get along well with other friendly cats too. I’m adaptable, observant

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.
