Story
Smokey is a 3 year old, grey-point male. He is an indoor cat and will only be placed in home where he remains as such. I took him in two years ago in Iowa from a family friend that could no longer care for him. Unfortunately, Smokey has become very aggressive towards our other cat and after trying countless interventions, it's clear that he needs to be the only cat in the home. Smokey is, in my opinion, just perfect. He's very high energy and very curious. He needs an owner willing to play with him multiple times a day, as well as plenty of mental stimulation when left alone. He enjoys looking out the window, climbing scratching posts, cuddling, and playing fetch. Recently, we started clicker training (which he loves) and have learned a couple commands. I love him a lot and want to find a good home. While Smokey cannot live with other cats, he could live with a dog - as he did in the past.

Story
Zahdh is a fun-loving adventurous 7yo cat who enjoys long walks outdoors on a leash or unleashed (with a bit of training and patience!). He has been living indoors for the past few years since one of his brothers was hit by a car several years ago, but still has a distinct drive for the outdoors. He still does well indoors, sleeping/relaxing most of the day with bursts of playful energy, chasing his siblings, running through tubes, and climbing cat trees. He is a very snuggly creature who will sleep in bed with you throughout the night. He has been living with a sibling cat, Uul, for the last 4 years and is very friendly toward him - I am looking to rehome Uul as well, but they do not necessarily need to go to the same home. The best fit for Zahdh would be someone who can shower him with love and attention and take him outdoors frequently via (un)leashed walks in the neighborhood, some independent indoor/outdoor privileges (e.g. cat door), or on camping trips.

Story
Kitty family rescued and ready for adoption! Maple is Mom and she is about 2 years old. She gave birth on 24 August 2023 to 4 kittens: 3 males, Aspen, Cypress, and Sequoia and 1 female, Juniper. Mom was living in a parking lot with a colony of strays. The people who worked in the area fed the cats and noticed she was pregnant. One of them posted on Nextdoor asking for help. I took her in so she could have her babies in a clean, safe environment. Mama is super sweet and has adjusted very well to an indoor life. Mom and babies are all healthy and ready for their forever homes. Please contact their foster mom, Natalie at 310.977.5259 for additional information.
