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.

Story

IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING, PLEASE FILL OUT OUR ADOPTION APPLICATION AT TCRESCUE.COM/ADOPT Tony is one of 20+ cats found abandoned at a home. He is calm and sweet and gentle. He is fine being held, but it is also new to him. The vet has estimated him to be a year old. Tony would love to find his furever family after his rough first year of life. 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 interested in giving Tony a furever home, please fill out an application below. His adoption fee is $75.

While the world has been a little big and confusing for her, Aqui has shown just how much love she has to give once she feels safe. Aqui is a kind, gentle girl who wants to be close but isn’t quite confident yet. She may hesitate in new situations or need a little extra time to warm up, but beneath that is a kitten who truly enjoys affection, soft words, and calm companionship. As her confidence grows, so does her sweetness. She’s the type of kitten who will quietly sit nearby, watching and learning, then slowly inch closer until she’s right by your side.

Growing Brave: Still building confidence, but making progress every day. Quiet Observer: Likes to watch before joining in. Gentle Companion: Prefers calm energy and soft interactions.

Aqui is proof that sometimes the sweetest hearts just need a little time. If you’re looking for a kitten to grow with—one who will blossom with love, patience, and stability—Aqui is ready to start that journey with you.
