Story
She grew up on a truck yard in Julian. I had her TNRed in 2023. She is very skittish but sweet. I'm the only one that can rub her but I've been feeding her over 2 years. I truly believe she would be a great cat for the right person. She is a Tortishell. I'm losing my job as of this Tuesday and no one will be feeding her at all. She will have to be trapped as she will not let me pick her up. I just really want her to have a good living life and taken care of. I can meet whoever whenever there if you decide to take her. The best time to see her is early in the mornings before 7, after I feed her I don't see her anymore because of all the big trucks coming in and out all day. She had 3 litter of kittens before I had her fixed and I was so blessed to have found them all good homes. I would appreciate any and all help.She is close to 3 years old or maybe a little older. I trapped her yesterday 7/15/25 and took her to a friend's house. She let me pick her up so it wouldn't take much to tame

Story
Ahava is smart and independent. She loves a good high perch in whatever room you're in, but when she gets sleepy her preferred spot is in your arms or on your chest. Her sister is Ember, a silly tortie. A fantastic bonus for allergy sufferers: Ahava has been fed a special diet that makes her hypoallergenic (and it works!). She's also a tidy housemate and uses the litterbox without incident. While technically a calico, Ahava sports a unique disguise, presenting as a stunning orange tabby with a distinctive "Tar Heel" marking on her front left paw. She's quite the conversationalist, expressing her happiness with chirps during pets and to get your attention. If you or someone you know is interested in opening your heart and home to this wonderful, vocal, and loving companion, please reach out!

Story
Fantastic news for allergy sufferers: this indoor-only kitty has been fed a special diet that makes her hypoallergenic (and it works!). Shes a tidy housemate with experience using flushable tofu litter and pretty litter. Ember is always up for a a full-on chat, ready to engage you in delightful feline discussions, play with a fishing rod toy, or having a good snuggle in your arms. She absolutely adores being with people, and gets anxious when she is alone, so its best if you work from home, or adopt her with her sister Ahava. Being stressed makes her idiopathic cystitis flare up— but when she is happy she is healthy. If you or someone you know is interested in opening your heart and home to this wonderful, vocal, and loving companion, please reach out!
