Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Luna! When Luna found her way to CCR, she so pregnant she looked about to pop! In fact, the very next day she gave birth in her foster mom's bathroom! That was back in May, and since then Luna has settled down nicely and really shown us her super sweet personality. We don't know exactly how old Luna is, but her playfulness has us believing she may still basically be a kitten herself. She is shy at first but once she knows you becomes very affectionate. Luna is okay with other cats, so long as they are also "cat friendly," as she has not at all shown to be dominant and can easily be bullied by rougher cats. Two of Luna's three kittens have found their forever homes already, we'd love to see her find the perfect family to love her forever.  _____________________________________________________________ If you'd like to meet any of our adoptable kitties, please submit an application today. Cats Cradle Rescue holds adoption events at Petco in Camarillo the first Saturday of each month, and other dates as listed on our calendar.

Story
Fozzy Bear is a sweet, playful young Muppet who alternates between zooming after toys and lounging in a sunny window. He enjoys the company of other friendly cats and even helps shy ones come out of their shell. Fozzy is a big boy and likes to be petted, but he’s also quite shy, ready to dart away if unsure. A reassuring voice and gentle hand will help him relax. With patience, he will warm up and show his sweet side, offering soft kisses, graceful poses, and elegant tail swirls.

We took in a pregnant stray mama and have been trying to find homes for her babies! We’ve successfully found homes for four out of her six babies and we hope Panther will be next! He’s 8 months, very sweet and doesn’t bite or scratch. He’s very good with other cats and with dogs! He loves to be pet on the head and likes to snuggle! He likes sleeping and playing with his toys.

Story
This little guy and his sister were trapped in a field in Bakersfield and brought to Ventura to be fostered. He is your typical orange and white cat with energy and intelligence. At 6 months, he is ready for his forever home. A lap for a good nap, food, and toys are his jam. He is fixed, dewormed, treated for fleas, and has had his first round of shots.
