Story
I need to sadly re-home two beloved cats due to my partner's worsening allergen-induced asthma - we have tried every option over the last 3 years and nothing has worked. Simon - light orange male tabby, neutered, microchipped, 6 years old (DOB: Nov 2019) I adopted Simon at 4 months old from a foster program in San Francisco. He was too afraid to be at the local SPCA. He is incredibly timid. I have never met a cat with a greater fight or flight response. If you sneeze too loudly, he may sprint to the other room. That being said, he is very sweet and beautiful. When he eventually warms up to you, he loves to be petted. Sometimes he wants to get in your lap, but his flight response still makes him nervous and often he gives up. They can come with dry and wet food, an automated feeder, litter trays, cat toys/trees. We are looking for a home that will love them and keep them safe.

Story
I need to sadly re-home two beloved cats due to my partner's worsening allergen-induced asthma - we have tried every option over the last 3 years and nothing has worked. Carl (Carl Katsell) - Gray male tabby, neutered, microchipped, 7 years old (DOB: May 2018). Carl is the pet love of my life. He is named after the NPR reporter Carl Kasell and also goes by Carlos or Carlito. I adopted Carl when he was 4 months old. When Carl warms up to you, he will be your best bud. He will want nothing more than to sit in your lap, especially if you have a blanket on your lap. He rarely meows, except when carrying his favorite toy, an old cat toy that looks like a wine bottle. This is his security blanket toy. They can come with dry and wet food, an automated feeder, litter trays, cat toys/trees. We are looking for a home that will love them and keep them safe.

Story
Scarlett and Star are two sleek, stunning black kittens, just 10 months old. They were rescued from a cat colony of mostly black and tiger-striped cats during the height of kitten season. When I first found them, their tiny eyes were crusted shut, they were dehydrated, and so very hungry—without help, they would not have survived. Now, after lots of love and care, these girls are completely healthy and have blossomed into two of the sweetest, most affectionate kittens. They’re playful, curious, and absolutely full of love to give. 🐾 Scarlet – Just as loving as her sister, Scarlet is a total cuddlebug who enjoys curling up on a warm lap and purring away. She’s playful, curious, and impressively agile—leaping high after toys and exploring with joy. Her silky black fur is accented with a faint little white patch on her chest, giving her a unique charm. These two sisters are incredibly bonded; I would love to find home together, but may adopt individually to a loving home!

She has silky, midnight-black fur with a tiny white spot on her chest that shines like her namesake. A purring machine, she’s happiest snuggled close by your side. These two sisters are incredibly bonded and would love to find a forever home together, but would also thrive if adopted separately to a loving home.

Story
Mila is a 4 year old beautiful petite domestic short haired spayed female cat with a sweet, affectionate personality. I tamed her from being a feral kitten. I knew her for several months before I rescued her, 3 years ago, from a place where I routinely fed colony cats. She is healthy, loves to cuddle, great with other cats, playful and super sweet! She would thrive in a loving forever home!

Story
I'm a beautiful black cat with soft fur and thoughtful eyes, the kind who likes to observe the world before stepping into it. Once I decide you're my person, though, I'm all in. I enjoy gentle affection, cozy spots, and being near you while you go about your day. If you're looking for a loyal companion with elegant vibes and a heart of gold, I might just be the missing piece in your home.When you adopt me, please keep me indoors-only. Not only will I have a longer life, but I will be healthier and safe from the many dangers the great outdoors can pose to a curious kitty like me. I could be lost or stolen and experience things like overexposure to direct sunlight, natural predators like coyotes, and vehicles which can all be hazards to my health. Primary Color: Black Weight: 7.6 Age: 4yrs 0mths 2wks
