Story
Meet Shadow! 🐾 Shadow is a sweet, snuggly, and playful 4-month-old kitten, born on April 27, 2026. I began fostering Shadow after my sister was no longer able to care for him, and I’m now looking for a loving forever home for him and his sister, Willow. Shadow and Willow are a bonded pair and **must be adopted together**. Shadow is affectionate, playful, and loves to cuddle. He has a gentle, loving personality and would make a wonderful addition to the right family. I’m hoping to find them a safe, caring home where they can stay together and continue to grow up happy and loved. ❤️

Story
Jax (full name Car Jack) was found at a car mechanic shop at 3 months old living in a stack of spare tires with his brothers and sisters. Unlike his siblings he was very weak and didn't run when approached. He was scooped up to get veterinary care and is now a healthy, happy, playful boy ready for his forever home.A year old, Jax is energetic and a total Ham. Will perform parkour off surfaces. Will roll over to show his belly when called out on mischief.Highly food motivated. Silly. LOVES to play and has so much energy.He doesn't like to cuddle often, but is extremely gentle when asking for freedom with little meows and licks while he squirms. Jax would thrive in a place with space for him to dart around with his zoomies, preferably with kids or adults or a fellow cat who enjoy playing to keep up with his energy. A loving, energetic home would be great for him.He comes with his water fountain, cat tree, and favorite toys if wanted by new family.

Story
This is Jimbo. We got him at 4 weeks old from a barn in Half Moon Bay. He was born in May of 2025, making him a little under a year and a half old. He's grown up alongside our older cat. He's been raised indoors; we've let him have some supervised time in our alley but he's more comfortable inside. He may have a hard time adjusting to a new home, as he's lived with us in this location his whole life. He's a very sweet cat, excitable at times and loves to cuddle (on his terms.) He's playful, energetic and wants to enjoy company. He's got a lot of love to give! One important thing to note is he will go after your food if you leave it out, specifically meat and dairy products. As long as it's left in a sealed container, he'll leave it alone.

Story
We adopted Marlon when he was 4 months old, and he has been a beloved part of our family ever since. He grew up with our first cat and they have always gotten along very well. Sadly, after years of trying to manage a family member’s cat allergy through cleaning, medication, and separate spaces, the reactions have become too severe, and we have made the very difficult decision to find him a new home. He is incredibly gentle, affectionate, and people-oriented. He can be a little shy at first, so patience helps, but once comfortable, he becomes very attached and loves being around his people. He has also been wonderful with our young child and is remarkably calm and tolerant. We recommend continuing wet food and a water fountain to keep him hydrated and maintain his familiar routine. We are also happy to cover the cost of his existing pet insurance for the first 3 months to help with a smooth transition.

Story
Just like her famous namesake, Dolly P. is a little star who knows how to light up a room. This gorgeous Snowshoe kitten is as pretty as a picture, with striking blue eyes, a petite frame, and enough charm to win over everyone she meets. At first, Dolly P. may play it a little cool, but give her a few minutes and you'll discover a sweet, affectionate cuddle bug who loves attention and adores being petted. Weighing just 2.5 pounds, she may be tiny, but her personality is larger than life. Whether she’s following you around the house, curling up for snuggles, or gazing at you with those beautiful blue eyes, she has a special way of making every moment brighter. She’s already spayed, vaccinated, and ready to begin the next chapter of her life with a family to call her own. If you're looking for a loyal little companion who will fill your home with love, laughter, and a touch of star power, Dolly P. is ready for center stage in your heart. And unlike the original Dolly, this one wants to be by your side all day, every day—not just from 9 to 5! Dolly P lives with her brother Cowboy. If you're looking for a pair of adorable kittens-we got them! Dolly P can be adopted individually-or as a matching set.
