Kittens and cats in Hemet, California

MARCH 2026 PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW. IT WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. If you still have questions after, we are happy to respond through email. It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes, and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. The average lifespan of a cat is 13 to 20 years. Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. So don't let that discourage you from adopting an adult cat! Rescue mama has had 3 live into their 20's. One was 8 weeks old. EUROPA and her kittens (ATALANA - CIRCE - DESPONIA - ZEPHYR) were saved in San Jacinto, California. The wonderful couple saved them from the very cruel neighbors. So they called us. They are currently fostering them. And we are so glad they did. Meet DESPONIA, a delightful Tuxedo cat from San Jacinto, California, whose independent spirit and adorable quirks make her a true character. With her striking black-and-white coat and those big, golden eyes, she’s a master at capturing attention and making you feel like you need to give her some love (though she’s not shy about letting you know when she’s had enough)! DESPONIA is definitely the "do her own thing" type. She’s content to sit by your feet, gazing up with those wide eyes, silently asking for affection. But once you've showered her with pets, she’ll give a gentle paw or turn away when she’s had enough—she’s got her boundaries, and she knows how to communicate them! One of her favorite things? Snack-filled treats! DESPONIA will happily indulge in anything with a filling, and her playful zoomies are a sight to behold. She’s quick to dash around, especially when her sisters are winding down for the evening—her burst of energy will keep you smiling as she races through the room, full of joy and excitement. DESPONIA is a confident and loving companion, always ready for a cozy nap once her energy has been spent. She’s compatible with other cats, having grown up in a multi-cat environment, and would love to join a family that appreciates her independent yet loving nature. A bit of patience will go a long way with this little one, as she enjoys having her space but is equally affectionate when the time feels right. Could you offer this spunky tuxedo girl the loving home she needs to continue exploring the world on her own terms? DESPONIA is a DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TUXEDO MIX. She is about 1 year 9 months old. She has lived with cats. She used to play with a Aussie Shepard dog. She has never been around children.

Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. So don't let that discourage you from adopting an adult cat! Rescue Mama has had 3 live into their 20's. One was 8 weeks old. SIRIUS BLACK and his 3 siblings (LILY POTTER, JAMES POTTER and BELLATRIX) were found in the back yard in San Jacinto, California. The owner of the home trapped mom got her fixed and released her back into her back yard. Mama cat is very well taken care of. But the owner of the home needed help getting the kittens homes. So, we agreed to help her if she fostered them until we could get them vetted and put at PETSMART. Now they are ready! Meet SIRIUS BLACK, a playful tuxedo cat from San Jacinto, California whose bold personality is perfectly suited to his striking black-and-white coat. With a name as legendary as his, SIRIUS BLACK lives up to the hype as the big boy of the bunch, always eager to be in charge and set the tone for playtime.

He is loud and proud, never shy about letting you know when he’s hungry or in the mood for some excitement. His boisterous nature adds a dash of fun to the household, making sure that everyone knows when he’s around and ready to play. But don’t let all that rambunctious energy fool you—when the day starts to wind down, SIRIUS BLACK has a softer side. After a good round of playing boss, he loves nothing more than to settle in for some cozy snuggles. He’s the perfect lap cat once he’s all tuckered out, purring contentedly as he nestles up for a snooze.

Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. So don't let that discourage you from adopting an adult cat! Rescue Mama has had 3 live into their 20's. One was 8 weeks old. VANESSA FISK has had a rough life. We believe someone dumped her in our area. She found herself to our outdoor colony. We found her in our front lawn, attacked by some kind of animal. We rushed her to the vet. She has a huge scar under her fur. You cant see it at all. Meet VANESSA FISK, a beautiful DSH Calico mix from Hemet, California, whose essence is gentle resilience wrapped in a striking coat of white, orange, and black. VANESSA FISK is a large, shy, and timid cat who has faced some challenges in her past, but she’s ready to find a loving and patient family who can help her continue to heal and blossom. VANESSA FISK is an independent soul who finds comfort in the quiet companionship of other cats. Having lived peacefully with fellow felines, she would thrive in a home with another calm and understanding cat to keep her company. Her experiences have made her a bit wary of new environments, so she’ll need a pet parent who can offer her the gentle encouragement she needs to feel safe and secure. While Vanessa hasn’t had much experience with dogs or young children, her timid nature suggests that she would do best in a calm, dog-free home where she can gradually build her confidence at her own pace. A quiet environment with adults or older children who can respect her boundaries would be ideal for this sweet girl. Vanessa’s beautiful calico markings are matched by her soft, soulful eyes that tell the story of a cat who’s ready to embrace the kindness and comfort of a loving home. With time, patience, and plenty of love, Vanessa is sure to show her new fa family just how much affection she has to give. If you’re looking for a gentle companion who will appreciate your care and offer quiet companionship in return, VANESSA FISK could be the perfect addition to your family. Are you ready to give this shy but loving cat the home she needs? VANESSA FISK is DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / CALICO MIX. She is about 8 years and 2 months old and is good with cats. She has never been around dogs or young children. We don't think she will do well with dogs. The vet thinks a coyote or loose dog attacked her. VANESSA FISK is currently at our rescue in Hemet, California. ADOPTION PROCESS: 1. Go to Workinwhiskers.com (Click on ADOPT) 2. Fill Out Online Form 3. Submit Online Application 4.

But steps 1-6 of the ADOPTION PROCESS need to be done before we do the OFFICIAL MEET and GREETS. It is easier to do the meet and greets at the locations listed below: ****Please note we only have cats physically in MURRIETA and INDUSTY ONLY. But we can do meet and greets at all 5 locations listed below.**** PETSMART - 17651 Colima Rd, City Of Industry, California 91748 PETSMART - 2153 W Florida Ave, Hemet, California 92545 PETSMART - 25290 Madison Ave, Murrieta, California 92562 PETSMART - 34900 Monterey Ave, Palm Desert, California 92211 PETSMART - 2851 Eastland Center Dr, West Covina, CA 91791 The crazy rescue mama will drive kitties to their new home, meet and greets, etc...once the phone interview and home check have been done. Gas donations always appreciated! ************* Please no calls to the rescue. No one is available to take calls. ************ If the CAT/KITTEN is still listed (meaning here or other websites) they are still available. It does not mean they don't have other pending applications or meet and greets. Please note: Just because you fill out an application and are approved does not obligate you to adopt the cat/kitten. If he or she is not a fit...we have plenty of other cats / kittens available for adoption. We are a SMALL rescue based out of Hemet, California. We are all volunteers that run the rescue. If we haven't reached out....be patient. VANESSA FISK is ALREADY fully vetted. The adoption fee of $200 covers: Spay FVRCP shots RABIES shot FELV/FIV test (Negative/Negative) Drontal Dewormer Stronghold Flea Control Microchip We are NOT a government FUNDED shelter and all our donations and adoption fees are for our rescued cats/kittens. So, we do not do DISCOUNTS. If for some unfortunate reason you missed out on the kitten/cat you emailed about...I'm sure that we could help you with another rescue baby! Just ask!
