Calico kittens & cats in Carlsbad, California

* To be considered for a meet/adoption, please read the full biography to see whether they may be a good fit for your home, then submit an online application at www.dpsrescue.org.    Warning: Your House Will Never Be the Same At just 13 weeks old, the Peninsula Litter has already mastered the art of being kittens. Some kittens spend their days quietly napping in a sunbeam. These are not those kittens. The Peninsula Litter believes every shoelace is a snake that must be defeated. Every cardboard box is a luxury condo. Every paper bag is an amusement park. They can turn a crumpled receipt into a 30-minute sporting event, race through the house at warp speed for absolutely no reason, then collapse in a tiny pile as if they have just completed an Olympic marathon. Five minutes later, they do it all again. If you've ever laughed while a kitten proudly carried a toy twice their size through the house at 2:00 a.m., found yourself applauding an impossible leap from the couch to the cat tree, or wondered why there was suddenly a kitten hanging halfway out of a laundry basket, you already understand the magic of this age. These four siblings—Mateo, Foster, Carlos, and Clara—are exactly what kittens should be: curious, fearless, playful, affectionate, and endlessly entertaining. They've been raised in loving foster homes where they've been well socialized from the very beginning. They've been exposed to dogs and other cats and would do wonderfully in a home with respectful children. They're confident little explorers who settle in quickly because people have always been part of their world. Whether you live in a downtown apartment, a cozy condo, or a house with room to roam, these kittens aren't looking for square footage. They're looking for someone who will laugh when they steal a sock, smile when they chase invisible 'monsters' across the living room, and happily make room for a warm little body curled up beside them at the end of the day. Picture coming home from work and being greeted by tiny paws racing to the door. Imagine making your morning coffee while a curious kitten supervises from the nearest chair. Picture movie nights with a purring kitten asleep in your lap, or lazy Sunday mornings when the biggest decision is whether to chase a toy mouse or curl up in a sunny window for a nap. Before long, you'll wonder how your home ever felt complete without them. Because kittens almost always do better with another playful feline companion, we'd especially love to see two of these siblings continue growing up together. Mateo and Foster are the very best of friends. They currently live together, play together, wrestle together, and often end the day curled up side by side. We'd absolutely love to see them continue their adventures in the same home. Carlos and Clara are another wonderful pair we'd love to see adopted together as they live together now. They complement each other beautifully and make a fantastic duo. These pairings are not requirements, and we'll always choose the home that is the best fit for each kitten. However, if we have two equally qualified applicants and one family is interested in adopting one of these pairs together, that family will receive priority. If you're looking for laughter, companionship, endless entertainment, and tiny best friends who will quickly become cherished members of your family, the Peninsula Litter is ready to fill your home with love, purrs, and just the right amount of kitten mischief. We can't wait for you to meet them.They have all been spayed, vaccinated, tested negative for FIV and FeLV, dewormed, flea treated, and microchipped. Their adoption fee is $350 for the pair or $200 per kitten. . September 3, 2026, 5:52 pm

* To be considered for a meet/adoption, please read the full biography to see whether they may be a good fit for your home, then submit an online application at www.dpsrescue.org.  Sometimes life changes in ways our pets have no say in. Tom and Miki came to DPS after their owner had to move out of the country and was unable to take them along. They have been together since they were kittens, but they do not have to be adopted together. We are happy to place them separately in the right homes, or they can stay together if someone has room in their heart for two. Tom is a 3-year-old Turkish Van mix who is basically a professional people person. He loves his humans and wants to be right where you are, preferably supervising whatever it is you’re doing. Curious, affectionate, and happiest when he’s beside his person, Tom is the kind of cat who wants to be part of the action rather than watching it from across the room. Miki is Tom’s 3-year-old calico sister, and her markings are absolutely one of a kind. The transition to a new home has been harder on her, so she’s taking her time adjusting. She’s been coming around beautifully in her foster home and has discovered that lounging in her cat tree is a pretty good way to spend the day. She is gentle and sweet with her humans and loves playing with toys. Miki also has a little hidden talent: she’s a mouser. Both cats are indoor cats, but when an unexpected mouse made its way into their former home, Miki apparently decided she had been hired for pest control. Problem solved. Tom and Miki would make wonderful companions, together or separately, for the right home. Tom is likely to be your shadow, while Miki may take a little more time to feel completely comfortable—but once she does, you’ll have a sweet, playful girl who knows how to enjoy the good life. Sometimes the hardest part of rescue is helping animals understand that a change in circumstances doesn’t mean they’ve lost their chance at a happy ending. We think Tom and Miki are both ready for theirs. All kittens have all been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, tested negative for FIV and FeLV, dewormed, flea treated, and microchipped. Their adoption fee is $350 for the pair or $200 per kitten.  September 3, 2026, 5:52 pm

Munchkin is a young and calm 2 month old kitten who loves to sleep and eat. She was rescued by a cruel stray cat reseller and was locked in a small room with a litter of other kittens waiting to be sold. She needs a little bit of time to get used to new environments, but once she feels comfortable and safe she can be really playful and cuddly, especially with other non aggressive cats. She loves dry cat food and playing with strings. We just want her to be in a safe home where she can play with other cats, get enough attention, but also get the space she needs when she asks for it.

* To be considered for a meet/adoption, please read the full biography to see whether they may be a good fit for your home, then submit an online application at www.dpsrescue.org.    Valentina Is Ready to Be the Love of Your Life. Some names are simply beautiful. Valentina means strength, love, and courage—and after spending just a few minutes with her, you'll understand why it suits her perfectly. Valentina is a 9 month old sweetheart with a heart as big as her personality. She's affectionate, confident, wonderfully social, and believes every person she meets is simply another opportunity to make a new best friend. If you've been searching for a cat who wants to be part of your everyday life, Valentina has already packed her bags. Some cats wait for you to notice them. Valentina has a different strategy. She'll come introduce herself. After all, why wait for love when you can help it along? She's the kind of kitten who believes every lap should be occupied, every head scratch should last just a little longer, and every day should include plenty of quality time with her favorite humans. If you're sitting down, don't be surprised if she decides you've just volunteered for cuddle duty. And honestly... You won't mind one bit. Her foster family has absolutely fallen for her. One of the first things they noticed was how quickly she settled into their home. New environment? No problem. Resident cats? New friends! Valentina has a wonderfully adaptable personality that allows her to roll with life's changes and make herself right at home. She's the type of cat who seems to say, 'Don't worry...I've got this.' That confidence, paired with her affectionate nature, makes her an absolute joy to live with. Valentina would happily join a family with another friendly cat, a cat-savvy dog, or respectful children. She's social without being overwhelming and playful without being chaotic. She enjoys being part of whatever is happening around her and has the kind of personality that naturally fits into almost any loving home. She'd also be perfectly content as your one and only feline, soaking up every bit of attention for herself. (And if we're being honest...she certainly wouldn't complain.) If Valentina could write her own wish list, it would be refreshingly simple: A tall cat tree for climbing. A sunny window for bird watching. A basket full of toys. A cozy bed. And people who believe that cuddles are an important part of every single day. Imagine coming home after work and being greeted by one happy little face who's genuinely excited to see you. Imagine spending quiet evenings with a cat curled beside you, purring so loudly you're not sure whether she's thanking you...or congratulating herself for choosing such wonderful humans. Imagine years of laughter, companionship, and unconditional love from a cat who never misses an opportunity to make someone smile. Some cats become part of your family. Valentina becomes part of your heart. She has a beautiful way of making people feel loved, and once you meet her, it's easy to understand why everyone falls for her so quickly. Valentina has been spayed, vaccinated, tested negative for FIV and FeLV, dewormed, flea treated, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $200. If you're looking for a young cat who's affectionate, confident, endlessly lovable, and ready to make every day a little brighter, Valentina is waiting to sweep you off your feet.  September 3, 2026, 5:52 pm

Teddy Bear by Nature. When you hear the name Tiger, you might picture a fearless jungle cat. Then you meet this Tiger... ...and discover she's much more interested in conquering your lap than the wilderness. Tiger is a 2 year old sweetheart with a heart as soft as her purr and a personality that could melt even the toughest day. Gentle, affectionate, and wonderfully easygoing, she's the kind of cat who makes a house feel instantly warmer simply by being in it. If your dream companion is one who enjoys quiet moments, cozy cuddles, and being close to her favorite people, Tiger may be exactly who you've been searching for. Tiger has mastered one important life skill: Finding the coziest spot in the house. Sometimes it's perched high on her cat tree, where she can watch the world go by from her favorite lookout. Sometimes it's a sunny patch on the floor. But her favorite place? Your lap. Her foster mom works from home, and Tiger has happily appointed herself the official office assistant. While emails are answered and meetings come and go, Tiger's most important responsibility is making sure her foster mom never has to work alone. She curls up contentedly in her lap, purring away as if she's reminding her that deadlines are much easier with a furry coworker. It's a job she takes very seriously. Tiger isn't flashy. She doesn't need to perform acrobatics or race through the house to capture your heart. Instead, she wins people over the old-fashioned way—with kindness, quiet companionship, and an endless supply of affection. She's the kind of cat who makes ordinary moments feel special. Reading a book? Tiger would love to join you. Watching your favorite show? She'll save you a seat. Working from home? Expect regular cuddle breaks, courtesy of your newest supervisor. Tiger currently lives with another cat and has done beautifully, but we also think she'd be perfectly happy as your one and only feline, soaking up every bit of love and attention for herself. She would also do well in a home with respectful older children who understand that the best friendships are built with kindness and gentle hands. If Tiger could design her perfect forever home, it wouldn't be extravagant. A tall cat tree for afternoon bird watching. A few cozy beds scattered around the house. A lap that's available whenever possible. And a family who appreciates the quiet comfort of having a loyal companion always nearby. Imagine working from home with one content little cat purring peacefully in your lap. Imagine ending each evening with Tiger curled beside you, making even the busiest day feel calm again. Imagine years of quiet companionship from a cat who asks for very little but gives so much in return. Some cats bring excitement. Tiger brings peace. And sometimes, that's exactly what we need most. Tiger has been spayed, vaccinated, tested negative for FIV and FeLV, dewormed, flea treated, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $150. If you're looking for a gentle, affectionate companion who will happily trade the jungle for your lap, Tiger is ready to make your home her forever sanctuary.  September 3, 2026, 5:52 pm
