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.

Story

Meet Binx & Nina A Perfectly Paired Brother–Sister Duo Binx and Nina are a bonded sibling pair with twice the love to give and hearts that are happiest together. Binx, the handsome all-black older brother, is sleek, soulful, and quietly devoted. Though he’s the big brother, he and Nina are almost the same size — making them an adorable matching set. Binx has a calm, steady presence and enjoys lounging nearby, keeping a watchful eye on his surroundings (and his sister). His eye can occasionally become irritated, but it’s easily managed with simple treatment, and he handles it like the champ he is. Nina, the younger white-and-grey tabi sister, is the playful spark of the pair. She has a puppy-like personality — she loves to play, follow her people around, and happily be scooped up and held. Affectionate and full of charm, Nina brings joyful energy wherever she goes and isn’t shy about asking for attention. Together, they balance each other beautifully. Binx’s gentle steadiness complements Nina’s playful enthusiasm, and their bond is both sweet and strong. You’ll often find them curled up together after a play session, perfectly content in each other’s company. This special duo is looking for a loving forever home that will cherish them both. In return, Binx and Nina promise endless companionship, playful moments, and double the purrs every single day. Both cats are spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. Requesting a donation fee of $150 to help cover the costs of medical and foster supplies. Foster to adopt is also an option. If interested in providing a loving home for any of these wonderful cats, please contact Chelsea at crlenz@gmail.com or (650) 465-4513. Thank you!

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

This beautiful girl is sweet, fun-loving and easygoing. She likes to cuddle next to you on the couch or madly chase a toy around the room. Bootsie likes to be with you, following you from room to room. If you want to sit down and watch TV or read, she will cuddle next to you. If you want to play, she’s ready. She comes when she is called. If you talk to her, she answers with a whispered mew. Bootsie, who is between 1 and 2 years old, is a female and orange—a somewhat rare combination. She has a white chest and paws, hence her name. Bootsie and her two kittens were found in a colony of feral cats. But all three were as friendly as can be. A rescuer picked her up and put her in a carrier—no trap needed. Although found outside, Bootsy seems content to be a house cat. She makes no attempt to go outside when the front door is opened. She weighed 7 pounds when she was found and was very hungry. Just five weeks later, she had blossomed into a 10-pound cat and not the least bit fat. Bootsy would likely make a great playmate for another cat or would be happy as an only cat. She has had all her shots, is spayed and has been given preventive meds for fleas. She is ready for her next adventure. Bootsie is being cared for by a member of the community.

Story

Mystic is a handsome, mellow boy who may need a little time to show you his true personality—but once he feels comfortable, he’s a social, playful little purr machine! When Mystic first meets new people, he prefers to hang back and observe. Give him some space and let him come to you, and before long, you’ll see him transform into the sweet, playful boy he really is. During a recent introduction to new people, he watched from a distance for a while, then within 30–45 minutes was happily playing with toys and enjoying the attention. Mystic loves playing with his foster mate, Spark, and especially enjoys feather wand toys and soft, sparkly balls that he can bat around and carry all over the room. After playtime, he’s happy to curl up next to you, snooze in your lap, or stretch out in a sunny window. He and Spark even cuddle together for naps under the dresser. He absolutely loves being petted and will reward you with plenty of purrs. He’s also wonderfully patient with his eye cleaning and leans right into the gentle “preening.” Mystic would thrive in a quieter home with another friendly cat and people who are willing to give him the time and patience he needs to acclimate. Once he knows he’s safe, this timid boy blossoms into a loving, playful, easygoing companion who is perfectly content to either snuggle beside you or enjoy some peaceful alone time. Prior to adoption, all kittens are spayed/neutered, tested for FIV/FELV, vaccinated and microchipped. Kittens under 5 months old must be adopted with a buddy or into a house where there's a kitten-friendly pet. This kitten is currently in a foster home.
