Story

IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING, PLEASE FILL OUT OUR ADOPTION APPLICATION AT TCRESCUE.COM/ADOPT Mamba is a sleek, 6-month-old spayed female with striking black-and-white markings, currently being fostered in Belmont, CA. Rescued from the same community cat colony as her brothers, Ash and Coal, she’s overcome a tough start and has blossomed into a playful and curious kitten. Mamba thrives in the company of other cats and loves feather wand toys, laser pointers, and running on the jumbo cat exercise wheel. While she’s still learning to fully trust humans, she’s made great progress and will sit nearby, offering sweet slow blinks as she builds trust. Mamba would do best in a home with other cats, either solo or adopted with one of her brothers. This resilient girl is looking for a loving home where she can continue to grow in confidence.

He's been around other cats, as well as children, as has been fine. He's up to date on vaccinations and has been neutered. He is currently located in French Camp, California, and we can arrange transportation if that's an issue, but we would prefer if you met him in person. Is Tony the one for you? His eyes say yes!

If you’re looking for a dynamic duo who will make you laugh, melt your heart, and keep you company, Sanny and Savanna are ready to meet you.

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Ginger! This handsome orange sweetheart was picked up for TNR from a managed colony in Milpitas after it became clear he didn’t quite belong out there. Likely dumped, Ginger stood out immediately for his friendly, easygoing nature. Even the vet described him as “a very good boy, very friendly boy.” Estimated to be just 1–2 years old, Ginger is young, social, and very comfortable with people. He handled his exam like a champ, had his eyes cleaned for a mild infection, and received a long-acting antibiotic injection. He’s now neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and defleaed. He’ll receive a microchip before adoption. Ginger would much rather be lounging on a couch than surviving outdoors. He’s the kind of cat who makes you wonder how he ever ended up outside in the first place. If you’re looking for a friendly, affectionate companion with classic orange-boy charm, Ginger may be your guy.
