Domestic Longhair kittens & cats in San Jose, California

Meet Kat! Kat is a gentle, one-year-old sweetheart who traded in her days as a stray for cozy naps and head scratches. With her soft purrs and playful spirit, she’s the perfect mix of curious kitten and calm companion. Kat loves batting around her catnip toys, exploring new spaces at her own pace, and curling up with a soft blanket when playtime winds down. Though she may be a bit shy at first, she warms up with gentle attention and quickly becomes a loyal little shadow. While she’s not a fan of being picked up, she adores being near her people and will happily lean in for pets, especially head and cheek scratches. Kat is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and ready to bring joy to a loving home. She’d do well with individuals or families of any age who can give her time to settle in, plenty of play, and affection on her terms.

Fritz is a handsome 12-year-old, part–Maine Coon gentleman with medium-long brown hair and a solid 15-lb presence. While he may look majestic and fluffy, Fritz is truly all heart. He’s affectionate and enjoys being close to his people, though he’s not a lap cat, his favorite place is simply nearby, soaking in human companionship. Fritz strongly prefers people over other cats and would be happiest as the only feline in the home. He can coexist with another cat given time, but slow introductions are essential. It once took about six months for him to warm up to a feline companion.  People are Fritz’s main source of enrichment. While he has toys he enjoys, his greatest stimulation comes from being around his humans, especially listening to them talk. He even seems to have a soft spot for male voices, possibly a nod to his first owner. Raised by humans from birth, Fritz has no hunting behaviors and is very people-oriented. He is wary of unfamiliar dogs at first, though with proper introductions, he may adjust to them more easily than to other cats. If you’re looking for a calm, devoted companion who wants to share space, conversation, and quiet moments with you, Fritz may be your perfect match.

Tulip is a 5-month-old long-haired dilute calico with the sweetest mix of playfulness and affection. Though she can be a little shy at first, once she feels comfortable she blossoms into a loving companion who enjoys pets and cozy naps by your side, she even sleeps with her foster mom at night. Tulip is still a kitten at heart and loves playtime, but she would thrive most in a calm, quiet home without small children. With patience and love, Tulip will reward her forever family with endless affection and gentle cuddles.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Princess with a Big Heart & TailMercedes is a fun loving princess looking for her forever home. Mercedes is initially shy and it takes a few days for her to take over the house. Then she will own the place and will tell you so. She is quite vocal when she wants to play and at meal times. She loves chasing after feather and other wand toys. She requires you to participate. She naps on her own and plays with her humans. Mercedes wants to be a lap cat but she needs to know you first. Initially she prefers to sit next to her human while they read or watched television. She enjoys brushing. It's needed to care for all that fluff. That fur makes her look larger than she is. After years as a single cat, Mercedes is not prepared to share her human with another cat. She truly wants to be the princess in the castle. When Mercedes returned to us she received a complete medical check up and updated vaccines. Unfortunately the vet found two problems. Mercedes has a grade 2-3 heart murmur and mild to moderate hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. She receives twice daily oral medication that she takes without complaining. Fortunately Mercedes is completely asymptomatic and enjoys and active life. Her heart problems do not stop her from running around just like a healthy cat. Come meet Mercedes and her tail. It has a life of its own. Here is her kitten bio: Mercedes was named after the car under which she was found. She was a scrappy little girl at 1.5 lbs, ready to take on all comers. With some TLC and regular meals, Mercedes no longer hides under the bed and prefers being with people. She knows being an extrovert is a lot more fun. While she plays well alone, attacking her toys and packing paper, she prefers interacting with her human friends getting them to move the wand toys and using their legs as launch pads. After playtime, a lap is a good place to crash. Mercedes is vocal only at meal time. She has the cutest “mew.” She also likes a solid routine: food, play, nap, cuddlesVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.

Kate is an indoor cat. He has never been outside. He gets along well with children and dog. He is shy, but he likes to be pet and groomed. He is about 1 year old. I’m seeking a cat lover who has time for him. I will consider waiving adoption fee for seniors.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Janice (janice.frazier@sbcglobal.net) for more information about this pet. Online Adoption Application › Loving and adorable, but very special needsBriar is outgoing, loving, playful and loves life. He purrs close to non-stop and head butts you for loving. But he had a perianal hernia and GI tract complications since he was rescued as a bottle baby. We are still looking for the ideal home for Briar. He loves all animals (2- and 4-legged) and will become a very adored family member. But because of his issues he does need a special diet and a home that is easily suited to cleaning (non-carpeted or specialized room for him) as he can't always get to the litter tray to poop. If you are looking for the best of the special needs cats, for sure it’s him and he is worth the effort. Note the posting updates are in chronological order to see more on him.  Original Posting as baby: Multiple attempts to help him with vets locally would work for a while, but finally we had to take him to UC Davis for another surgery. This created quite a large vet bill for the group, requires special food, and significant care. Any donation will help significantly, towards his bill, and his on-going expenses. Please help us fund this little guy - - never seen such a trooper in a little kitten, he won’t give up; help us make sure we don’t have to! THANKS for helping!   UPDATE Nov 5 2015: Working with the vets, we have come up with a mix of canned and kibble foods to help Briar's poop firm up some so he makes the litter tray more and has gained some weight in the last months. He had stalled at about 5 lbs, but with the mix of canned and kibble we've got him up to 6 lbs. Also we had a scare when he plugged up with a hairball in rectum - with work we got it out. But now he gets hairball treatment gel with every meal till shedding season is over, and we have trimmed his beautiful tail (sadly) so he will not ingest the long 4' tail hairs. Still he's a wonderful, happy, beautiful cat!   UPDATE Dec 14, 2015: He is gaining weight and is now up to 4 lbs at 6 months of age, yeah!   Update Jan 15, 2016: At Vet check he was 4.8 lbs (yeah!) and is now eating Royal Canin Mom and Babycat kibble, as well as canned IAMS intestinal plus food, both easy to digest, so his poop is a bit more consistent in timing and firmness.   Update March 6, 2016: After trying baby kibble with Briar and finding it was a very fine balance to keep him from getting too firm of poop, we have started him on Metamucil in his canned food at the recommendation of UC Davis. So far we find that is nicely helping to manage the really loose stool.   Update Sept 20, 2016: Briar is much better on Metamucil and gained some weight as he's able to not have the food just run through him! Though he still doesn't always make it to the litter tray it’s much firmer poop and easy to clean up. He's just a total love bug and he's worth the work!   Update August 2017: We have him on a diet of canned food mixed with Metamucil and it does a relatively good job of firming up his stool but sometimes he still can't make the litter box, so he does have his own linoleum-floored room. And he does get out to hang out in the house when we can watch him to clean up after him if needed. We did have a scare earlier this month when he had a bout of colitis but the Vet said that can hit any cat and figured it was an isolated instance and so far she is right!   Update January 2019: It’s a new year and Briar is already 4.5 yrs old, wow time flies! We have worked out a specific food for him mixed with Metamucil and he is doing much better about getting to the litter box now. Still sometimes he has accidents but we are pleased that it is somewhat better and if you are looking to help support him the food is Fancy feast (Gravy Lovers chicken feast in grilled chicken flavor gravy).   Update January 2020: Briar continues to do well and he is just such a great cat and, besides cleaning up if he has an accident, his food mixture is very easy to do. And we also give him a Vitamin B12 shot weekly to help with absorption of nutrients; he’s very good about it. And like any long-hair cat, he gets Petromalt during shedding seasons - which he loves.Update November 2020: Covid hasn't affected this sweetie!!!!! Briar is doing really well.  We have his diarrhea even more firmed up, fine tuning the mixture of canned with metamucil, but still he can't control always making it to the litter tray, so he does have a room all his own, and we take that little extra effort to prep his meals. He also gets Vitamin B injections to insure proper levels of Vitamin B, since with diarrhea that is always a concern of lack of that nutrient.  You can tell he is doing well though, such a handsome boy and very shiny, thick, healthy coat and right body index.  Briar's just such a loving cat it's quite amazing the great guy he is, so rewarding to care for him, he flips on his side and back when he sees you like heh aren't I handsome!  He'd be perfect in a non-carpeted home with easy to clean floors.February 2024 -Wow Brair is still with us and going strong.  Sadly no other forever home has come along, though we and he are all hoping it will!He is doing very well and last year we tested his Vit. B levels and found we could stop those weekly shots, so he is even more happy, as being poked weekly wasn't his favorite thing!  He is a very happy kitty in general, and being Maine Coon X - a total pleasure, as he so loves people and is a very uncomplaining cat.  He will be celebrating his 10th birthday this year in May - and we will be sure to give him his favorite temptation hairball treats in his treat ball, with a few extra so he can really enjoy the hunt!April 2025 - Briar is headed towards his 11th Birthday!!!!!  He is still doing great and loving life in his private well covered room.  He still has some issues making it to the litter tray but we've found that now using Fancy Feast Pates and the Metamucil gives him the best chance to have firm poop and get to litter tray in time!  He's so sweet and loving and worth the extra time it takes to keep his room clean!December 2025 Briar is getting ready for the holidays and asking Santa for his favorite canned food now - Savory Centers, having decided Fancy Feast Pates are just not as tasty now!  We also are feeding him 3 cans a day as he has started to not manage his weight well, because of his age and less efficient GI tract.  He happily obliges eating it all.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.
