Story

Bindi is a sweet girl with a beautiful gray marble tabby and white coat. She was rescued with her sisters from under a freeway overpass. Bindi is shy around new people at first, so she would do best with someone who is experienced with cat body language and behavior. Once she's comfortable and settled in she's a real love bug. She likes to play with toys and be pet, but prefers not to be picked up. She is laid back and would do well in a quiet home with no children, and someone who will give her a lot of love. She would also do best as an only cat. Bindi loves the catio her foster mom built! This allows her to enjoy the outdoors safely, while inside a large, enclosed area. s to be pet and play with toys. She's not outgoing with strangers. Once she's comfortable, she's mellow and likes to lay around a lot. She is spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, defleaed, and microchipped.

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Tiny (brown torbie) and Simba (orange tabby) are a tender-hearted bonded pair who bring out the very best in each other. Both are 15 weeks old, spayed/neutered, de-flead, vaccinated, microchipped, and nail-trimmed, two little kittens ready for a patient, loving, indoor-only home. Tiny, the smallest of her litter, has transformed from very shy to quietly affectionate. She now comes forward for pets at mealtime and even “helps” with litter cleaning. She adores toys with jingling balls and ribbon play, and her gentle nature always shines, if Simba starts growling over the ribbon, she sweetly lets him have the first turn. Simba, her orange brother, follows Tiny’s lead with his shy-but-sweet personality. Once very timid, he’s learned from his sisters that petting time is safe and nice, and he now comes forward confidently during feeding and quiet moments. He thinks ribbon toys are the best thing in the world and sometimes growls when startled… or at the ribbon… or even at his own throw-up. It’s all noise never aggression. Both kittens prefer to keep all four paws on the ground and aren’t quite ready to enjoy being picked up. They get along well with other cats, though their experience with dogs is unknown. Gentle, bonded, and growing braver every day, Tiny and Simba are looking for a calm home that will let their sweet personalities bloom at their own pace. They’ll reward patience with soft affection, tender companionship, and endless entertainment. Simba and Tiny are being cared for by a member of the community.
