Story

I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Cat Adoption:4Hola, I'm Abuela, a 10-year-old tortoiseshell with a lot of love to give. Even though I have just three legs, don't worry, mi amigo, I get where I need to go just fine. I'm still perfecting my little hop, but honestly, I think I do it con estilo. Now, let me tell you—I'm quite the looker. My fur is a beautiful mix of deep black, warm orange, and soft golden patches, all swirled together like a cozy sunset. No two spots are the same, which makes me única. I'm a calm chica who enjoys the simple things: a sunny spot for naps and lots of gentle petting sessions, especially gentle rubs of my cheeks (más, más, por favor). I may only have three legs, but I've got a full heart, just looking for someone to love me. I'm sweet, relaxed, and always ready to keep you company. So if you're looking for a cozy, colorful amiga, aquí estoy, ready for a quiet life by your side. April 28, 2026, 1:09 pm

Story

I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Cat Holding 1:17Hi, I'm Rue. I'm 14 years old, with mostly white fur and a few spots, and I've got one folded ear that gives me a bit of character—and a story to go with it. A kindhearted person found me injured and made sure I got to a vet hospital, and I've healed up since then, but I think it explains why I appreciate the quieter side of life these days. I might not hear everything, but I've gotten pretty good at noticing what matters—like when it's time for food or when someone's about to pet me. I'll lean in, nudge your hand, and make sure you understand that stopping is not part of the plan. Occasionally I make unexpected noises like a low growl or hiss that seem to confuse people, but I promise I'm not being difficult—I just have my own way of talking. I'd be happiest in a calm, quiet home where I can settle in, enjoy my meals, and keep things low-key. I'll be honest with you—I'm a senior, and I've got a few medical things going on, like a heart murmur and early kidney disease, but I'm stable and feeling pretty good these days. I eat well, I like attention, and I'm not asking for much beyond a comfortable place to land and some affection. I've been through a lot, but I would love a retirement home of my own. I'm eating well, seeking love, and enjoying life—I simply need someone with a big heart to offer me comfort, patience, and a cozy place to spend my golden years. Could it be you?

Story

Squeak Heart the Valiant is an experienced cuddler for a ~10 month old kitten, loving lap time and giving rewarding kitty jumps when you pet him. He's a darling companion for some very lucky human! He's fastidious in keeping himself clean. He gets along great with people! He adores a new game of catch the toy.Having grown up fighting for his existence on the streets of Oakland, he very much would like a safe place inside without having to defend his territory. A small space is just fine with him, but he's hoping for a bigger spot than his current 6x3 foot nook. He asks to be an only cat please. He would love someone with a small bit of patience, but he warms up very quickly. If you sit down, he will crawl in your lap. If you lay down, he will plop right down next to you, unobtrusively psyched to have some affection. He is one of the sweetest cats his foster people have seen, to humans. Oh, and he says, "I'm very handsome with my cute, fluffy face."

Story

This is a listing for pair-bonded kittens, Chereka (gray, male) and Sehay (orange, female), each 10mo old. They must be adopted together. Very social! Food motivated and easily trainable. Loves the vet, being in the car, used to being on a harness. Baths, nail cutting, brushing goes smoothly, even if they aren't the biggest fans. They love cuddling all up on you and being near you always. They pee and poop outside the litter box and I can't handle it anymore. I think they need supervised outdoor time every day, or 2hr+ of play...per day...with you. 1hr of play with me isn't enough. Dry food makes them go outside the box. Chereka will eat Sehay's food and she will let him, so they either need supervision or separation at feeding time. They love being up high and will jump on top of your fridge, stovetop (I recommend removing your knobs when not in use). They're also trained to use an automatic litter box, and they come with all their necessary supplies. They can only eat wet food.
