Story
Kiki is a loving, curious, playful kitty who is looking for her forever home. She enjoys her toys, treats and watching the birds and insects from the window. She is good with older children and teens. We are not sure how she will be with dogs, but she will want to be the only cat in the house. She loves Lasers, springs and catnip toys. She also likes wand toys as well. Kiki takes a little time to warm up, so she needs a gentle, patient owner who will allow her space and security.

Ori is such a sweet girl! She is more reserved than the others but she likes quiet and calm affection and really likes return visitors who she gets to know! Once she gets to know her human friends - she remembers them and will say hi and reach out to them. She may need some quiet support to get comfortable initially to transition as she can be reserved at first, but she will come out of her shell!Ori has had our complete Cat protocol :* Complete Health exam by a Vet* Feline tests to rule out FeLV, FIV & Heartworm* Bloodwork 1: CBC (Mycoplasma check if indicated)* Bloodwork 2: Chem profile* Deworming at intake and monthly thereafter* Vaccines: Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (FVR), Feline Distemper (FP), Calicivirus (FCV), Rabies* Spay/Neuter* Flea/Tick prevention* Microchipping available

Story
Meet our stunning Catio princess- CallieThis dazzling 8-month-old calico princess believes her job is to greet every human, dog, and cat as if they’re arriving on her personal red carpet. She was rescued as a tiny kitten with a viral eye infection, and while one eye still has a bit of lingering character, it absolutely doesn’t slow her down. She accepts her eye drops like a tiny warrior monk who’s decided “fine… but only because I’m adorable.”She is outrageously social — first to the door when visitors arrive, first to squish herself into your lap, first to charm the dogs, and absolutely convinced kids were placed on earth specifically to pet her. She thrives in a home with other animals and will happily weave herself into the daily rhythm of a lively household.If you’re looking for a confident, affectionate, dog-adoring, child-charming, eye-drop-tolerant sweetheart who will make your home feel like a sitcom with a very cute lead character, this calico girl is ready for her debut.Currently located in our Punta Mita,Mx. shelter- can be easily flown to you in the U.S.A or Canada via our flight angel escorts!Callie has had our complete Cat protocol :* Complete Health exam by a Vet* Feline tests to rule out FeLV, FIV & Heartworm* Bloodwork 1: CBC (Mycoplasma check if indicated)* Bloodwork 2: Chem profile* Deworming at intake and monthly thereafter* Vaccines: Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (FVR), Feline Distemper (FP), Calicivirus (FCV), Leukemia, Rabies* Spay/Neuter* Flea/Tick prevention* MicrochippedPlease send us an application at: https://wetnosesrescue.org/adoption-application-cats/

Story
We MUST NOT let this mother and FOUR NEWBORN kittens be put back onto the streets! Mom is a SUPER FRIENDLY Calico Sweetheart- kittens were born last week (neighbor took the pregnant Mom indoors to be safe but cannot keep them there!) These four tiny babies are still WITH MOM, we need a FOSTER HOME for the four kittens WITH the Calico Mom! If you have a GUEST room or other SAFE SPACE where Mom can raise her babies, YOU get to PLAY WITH THE KITTENS and help socialize them, then YOU may be considered to adopt the PICK OF THE LITTER (Preferably two, of course, because kittens are best in pairs!) ACT FAST! With all of the RAIN COMING for the rest of the week its CRITICAL that these babies dont go back into the street! HELP!

Story
How this pet arrived: Black Bear was brought in by a community member on August 15, 2025.Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Black Bear! This gentle soul is a shy kitty who will need a patient adopter willing to provide him with a safe, quiet space to adjust at his own pace. Once he feels comfortable, he loves receiving back rubs and paw massages. He is a very sweet boy who will gently ask for pets and make biscuits when he's extra happy. Black Bear is blind and has no teeth, so he will do best in a calm home where his environment stays consistent. He is also living with kidney disease, so his future family should be prepared to monitor his lab work and keep an eye on any changes in his health with the help of their veterinarian. Black Bear may have some special needs, but he has plenty of love and affection to share! If you're ready to open your heart and home to this sweet boy, he's sure to reward you with loyal companionship. Come on in to learn more about him today! At SDHS:Black Bear has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. He is now ready for his new home! Primary Color: Black Weight: 8.59 Age: 10yrs 3mths 3wks

How Amarena arrived: Amarena was brought in by their previous owner on 11/23/2025. Why Amarena is the one for you:Meet Amarena, a gentle, shy girl who's been overwhelmed by the busy shelter environment. She tends to be quite fearful here, but with patience and kindness, her sweet personality begins to peek through. Amarena would do best in a calm, predictable home without small children, where she can feel safe and build trust at her own pace. With a quiet space, a soft voice, and someone willing to let her blossom in her own time, Amarena has all the potential to become a loving, loyal companion. At SDHS:Amarena has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. Amarena is now ready for their new home! Primary Color: White Secondary Color: Blue Tabby Weight: 9.9375 Age: 7yrs 5mths 1wks
