Story
Meet the "melt in your lap" cat, Michaelangelo. Michaelangelo, along with his siblings, were rescued from the middle of a busy parking lot. Regularly fed by feeders, the juvenile kitties grew to accept human kindness. Michaelangelo has become quite the young gentleman. He is approximately 1.5 to 2 years old. He was a bit more shy than his siblings (who have already been adopted), but he has blossomed into a loving, playful, happy, and lap loving kitty. Favorite things: cuddling in laps, gentle head and back pets, treats, playing, watching birds through the window, sleeping on his cat post, calm environment. Michaelangelo enjoys the pampering and friendship of his human companion and bonded friend, Butterscotch. He also gets along with other playful, non-dominating cats who don't mind playing chase on friendly terms. He may also enjoy a cat friendly dog. He would be okay with older, kind, respectful kids. Michaelangelo is an ideal cat in many ways. He is a lump of love and will easily capture your heart as he adjust to his new home with his friend, Butterscotch. I am amazed these two sweethearts are still available. If his story, personality, and pictures capture your heart, please inquire to see how Michaelangelo and his friend, Butterscotch, can be forever yours. Notes: Please contact the foster parent directly for questions and a quicker response to your inquiry: kivers@fullerton.edu Please note that Butterscotch is bonded with Michaelangelo and come as a pair. Total adoption fee for both is $300. Kitties are spayed/neutered, dewormed, vaccinated, and chipped. Health records are provided, as are toys, bed/blanket, and current food. Interested adopters will be asked to complete an application for review and arrange a meet and greet with the kitty at the potential adopter's home. We want to ensure kitties are a good match for the adopter and the home is a good match for the kitty(s). Adopting a pet is a life-long commitment, through sickness and in health. We consider them family. Please note that most new pets will need time to adjust and feel comfortable in their new environment. This is natural. Here is information on the 3-3-3 rule: https://companionanimalcommunitycenter.org/your-cat-settling-into-your-home-with-the-3-3-3-rule/

Story
Meet Leo! This boy is 4 years old and is looking for a new place to call home. He was found as a stray who got along with all the feral kitties, but he wasn't feral! He was brought into rescue and the rest is history. This sweet boy is neutered, current on vaccines, microchipped and negative for FIV/FeLV.  He loves to cuddle and will sleep with you if you let him. He does fine in a crate if he needs to be transported and does well in the car. If you are looking for a sweet boy and don't mind an extra roommate who will ask for food and water, hurry and fill out an application on our website. His adoption fee is $100. A home check is required after a meet and greet. January 29, 2026, 10:07 am

Story
Hello gorgeous! I'm Carmen. I am 4 years old and love to be pet. In fact, I'll come out to you, rub against your legs and purr until I get pets. Sometimes I'll bat around some toys but I'm mostly here for the pets. If you're seeking a companion to pet and enjoys attention, I may just be your gal! I don't enjoy the company of other cats or young children, so please no other cats or young children in the home. If you are interested in meeting Carmen, please visit https://azfriends.org/testing/adopt.html to complete an adoption consultation form and enter her name as the cat you are interested in. Then come visit us at the shelter during operating hours! Please note that ALL dogs and cats are available to the first home that meets the dog or cat that we feel is a good match.

Our adoption center hours are: Closed Sunday/Monday; Tuesday 10a-2p, Wednesday 3p-7p, Thursday 3p-7p, Friday 10a-2p, Saturday 10a-4p.

Story
Do you love cats and dogs equally but can only have one or the other, right now? Forget about choosing between the two because we have Clap Clap Kitty Cat - a dog trapped in a cat's body. You read that right. Clap Clap by all scientific accounts is a cat, but his personality is very much like a dog. He's a 2 1/2 year old, 15lb fella who does not like other cats, loves to play with toys, will come when you call him, rolls over onto his back when getting pets, and likes to chew on things. And to help with his chewing, we do have some solutions and chew sticks ready to go home with him. We know we're lucky to have the best of both worlds with Clap Clap. And you can too! Come and meet Clap Clap at our adoption shelter to see if he's your purrfect cat.No appointments are necessary and you can come see us anytime we are open. Please go to our website (www.azfriends.org) to fill out a consultation form then come and see us! We do require any family interested in meeting our dogs or cats to fill out a consultation form - this form helps us determine if the dog/cat and the home are a good match, since it is so easy to fall in love with a photo without knowing the personality of the dog/cat. Once you have filled out the online Adoption Consultation Form, just come in and see us (or come and see us and fill out the consultation form upon arrival)!Please note that ALL dogs and cats are available to the first potential adopter who we feel is a good match. In order to help make the best match, we do want all family members (dogs and humans) to meet any potential new family member.Our adoption center hours are: Closed Sunday/Monday; Tuesday 10a - 2p, Wednesday 3p - 7p, Thursday 3p - 7p, Friday 10a - 2p, Saturday 10a - 4p.
