This helps San Diego Humane Society - Oceanside Campus (Cats and Small Animals) with pet care costs.
How this pet arrived:
Pumpkin was brought in by her previous owner on February 10, 2026.
Why this pet is the one for you:
Meet Pumpkin! Pumpkin is a reserved companion seeking a tranquil, predictable environment where she can acclimate at her own pace. While she is initially fearful and shy when meeting new people, she possesses a gentle nature that flourishes in a quiet household. She is best suited for a home with older children who can respect her boundaries and understand her need for personal space. During the day, Pumpkin typically remains out of sight, preferring to observe from a secure hiding spot, but she reveals a more active and playful side once the house settles in the evening. This sensitive feline requires a patient adopter who can provide a dedicated safe space for her initial transition. Pumpkin may successfully cohabitate with a cat-savvy dog that is respectful of her space, though she would likely benefit from the presence of another resident feline to help build her confidence. With time and a low-stress atmosphere, Pumpkin will slowly integrate into her new family and form a lasting bond. Her ideal match is a household that values a calm presence and is willing to let her reveal her personality on her own timeline. Don't forget to bring a cat carrier for a safe ride home!
