Story
She’s very friendly. She wandered just outside our apartment after her owners abandoned her when they moved. When she started meowing at our door we took her inside.  We were surprised to find she was already potty trained, and she started using her litter box immediately, and has not had any accidents in the house. We noticed as soon as she came inside that he seemed to have been attacked by another animal. This left a wound on her butt near the base of her tail. She’s completely healed from this issue. Any loving family would be lucky to call this cat a part of their own. She needs lots of love, attention and affection, and she’ll do just fine. She’s the type of cat that wants to spend most of her day with you, and cannot stand being alone. She also seems to be resistant to flea treatment and therefore needs an experienced adopter. She also loves to swat at dangling hair, which can lead to accidents, which is why I don’t recommend her for a family with rather small children.

Story
FOSTER OR ADOPT:  Meet Caspian, a very sweet stray kitty who was found living outside an apartment complex, being fed and cared for by a kind neighbor. We’ve got Caspian safely indoors now and are looking for a new foster, or an adopter. He is still very shy and would do best with an experienced person who is willing to work with him and give him time to adjust. Caspian is a beautiful cat, and once he is comfortable, he loves gentle head scratches.  He has great potential to be a wonderful pet and would do well as an only kitty or with one other gentle sweet cat.   The neighbor who previously cared for Caspian shares her thoughts about him:  "Caspian is friendly and talkative, and he knows his name -- he responds to “Caspi!" He clearly was someone’s pet in the past as he loves human attention. He does great with dogs (he would follow the neighbor around when she walked her dogs). He is one of the sweetest kitties I’ve ever met! He is shy at first but once he opens up, he shows how much he loves affection. He runs to greet you and loves to rub on your legs and follow you around. Caspian purrs when he eats and 'kneads' his paws on the ground with happiness when you talk to him. He is very playful and loves toys!" Caspian was born in approximately March 2023. He is FIV positive, but FIV+ cats can live just as long and happy, healthy a life as kitties who are not diagnosed positive. FIV+ kitties can live together with cats who are FIV negative so long as they are introduced properly, get along, and do not fight, as the virus is transmitted by deep bite wounds. For more information about fostering or adopting Caspian, please text Deborah at 510-909-4961 (or leave a message) or email her at angusnfriends@outlook.com. All Angus & Friends cats are healthy, fixed, vaccinated and microchipped prior to adoption.December 25, 2025, 12:01 am

Story
Hi, my name is Cleo and I was born in approximately June 2025.  I’m a friendly kitten with very soft fur and a calm, affectionate personality! I really enjoy being around people and love spending time with my humans. I get along well with both younger and older foster siblings, and I’m very respectful of adult cats as I get to know them. I pride myself on having good manners! Being held is one of my favorite things, and if you allow it, I’ll happily sleep right beside you. I’m an expert at biscuit-making — kneading plush blankets is one of my favorite ways to relax. I have a sweet, gentle meow and I like to chat, offering little chirps to say hello or keep you company. For more information about adopting me, please text Deborah at 510-909-4961 (or leave a message) or email her at angusnfriends@outlook.com. All Angus & Friends cats are healthy, fixed, vaccinated and microchipped prior to adoption.January 20, 2026, 7:43 pm
