Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. TOM is a very lucky guy. He showed up at a lady's house that already had cats. He would show up every morning and the lady felt bad for him and would feed. She noticed that the other cats in the neighborhood were beating him up. It wasn't long before he was inside the house living with the lady. Unfortunately, her cats did not like him. So we were asked to take him. And now the cuddle bug is ready to be loved! TOM can be shy, but in the good environment he will be the "PURFECT" lap cat! As you can see in the pics, he is very comfortable on a lap! He likes to be carried around, he loves to eat...especially his can food. TOM is DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR TABBY MIX. He is 4 years old and is good with cats and very curious about dogs.

Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. MJ and her sisters (FRANKIE and HARPER) were found in a backyard. The nice lady who had been taking care of the feral mama cat was trying to trap her and bring her inside with her kittens. Once the babies were old enough to leave mama, the kind lady took mama and got her fixed. Mama is now part of her family. Kittens came to us and now they're ready to get their new forever home! Now poor MJ has grown up in our rescue. MJ is extremely playful. She comes running when she hears a can open or if she hears her food bowl being filled. Anything is a toy to her!! She especially loves boxes and toys she can carry in her mouth. She enjoys ear rubs and will do anything for CHURU treats! You will need lots and lots of toys. She has the cutest little white spot on her forehead. She truly is a sweetheart!! MJ and HARPER have been together since birth. And now in their new foster home they have learned to function as individuals. MJ is DSH / TUXEDO MIX. She is now over 2 years old and is good with cats and very curious about dogs. She has never been around small children. MJ is currently at a foster home in San Jacinto, California. ADOPTION PROCESS: 1. Go to Workinwhiskers.com (Click on ADOPT) 2. Fill Out Online Form 3.

Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. BEBE, her mom (BETTI BOOPERS) and her 3 siblings (LYNX, COLTON & TIGGER) were living in a bad hoarding situation in Bakersfield, CA. They were living off a dangerous street and people were actually poisoning the cats there. A group of rescuers helped all the cats involved and called us to take these babies. These poor guys were so skinny, dirty and scared. And when BEBE came to our rescue, we discovered she was very social. BEBE is a sweet tiny girl. She has found toys and likes to play. She loves ear and belly rubs. And you can't help but fall in love with her little face that looks like someone drew a "PURFECT" orange arrow on her face! BEBE and her brother COLTON were adopted together. And to their dismay, their dad passed away. We were called to pick them up and the rescue mama ran to get them. It has been a very hard journey for them. We truly pray that the person that falls in love with BEBE will have the heart to take her brother COLTON too. BEBE is a very sweet, timid girl. But she loves pets and cuddles. She likes to play. She especially likes to cuddle with her brother. But don't take our word for it...go meet her! Watch her video! She loves to play.

PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW BEFORE YOU RESPOND. It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. HARRY was born in a foster's home. His family came from a horrible situation. There were 10 cats saved. 6 of them were pregnant (one of them being HARRY's mom). They were all living in a yard in a garage in Moreno Valley, Ca. The moms were all named after SUPER HEREOS. It seemed fitting since they were all basically surviving and being fed scrapes, fighting other cats and dogs. They were living off a dangerous street where people were actually poisoning the cats there. So HARRY has never known the street life. He has lived a nice pampered life. As you can see in the pictures, he is loved and spoiled. HARRY is a very sweet and talkative boy. Loves to wrestle and play with all his siblings and foster siblings. HARRY also likes to cuddle with his human foster family. His foster and the volunteers at Petsmart say he is the PURFECT office assistant! His foster calls him "A SUPER SNUGGLING LUNATIC". He just wants a person to love. He is a lap-sitter , loves ear rubs and is a full on love machine! As you can see in some of the pics, he wants to be all in everyone's business! He will be a big boy!!! HARRY is a DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TIGER-TABBY MIX. He is 2 years old and is good with cats and dogs. He has never been around young children. He will do good with one cat or a cat-friendly dog. HARRY is currently at PETSMART in Murrieta, California off Madison Avenue. ADOPTION PROCESS: 1. Go to Workinwhiskers.com (Click on ADOPT) 2.

Story
PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW BEFORE YOU RESPOND. It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. ESTRELLADO was saved by an independent rescuer back in late 2017. He was a tiny kitten. Well fast forward to 9 months ago, the lady was killed by a drunk driver. We were asked to help with her rescues and to our dismay, her house was a horrific hoarding case. We pulled 55 cats that were still alive. Our rescue took 26 of those cats into out rescue. ESTRELLADO is the second one to be ready for adoption. ESTRELLADO can be shy at first. He gets comfortable very quick and is curious about everything. He can get startled, but will come back and investigate. He will then come see you and demand attention. He is such a sweet love bug!!! All he wants is pets and love. Loves to play. He really loves to play with anything and makes you laugh with his silliness. He is at least 18 lbs.! He's not fat...he's just BIG! ESTRELLADO comes running when it's time to get his can food. He will actually let you know to hurry up! He has the cutest goatee and his half black sock on his foot is so unique. His purr box is very loud. He's looking for his REAL FUREVER home. ESTRELLADO is a DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TABBY MIX. He is 5 years old. He has lived with cats but needs proper introduction. We think he would do better with a cat friendly dog. He has lived with dogs. He has never been around children. ESTRELLADO is currently at our rescue in Hemet, California. ADOPTION PROCESS: 1.

Story
PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BEFORE YOU RESPOND. BASIL was born in a foster's home. Her family came from a horrible situation. There were 10 cats saved. 6 of them were pregnant (one of them being BASIL's mom). They were all living in a yard where they were occasionally allowed in a garage in Moreno Valley, Ca. Most of the cats were all named after SUPER HEREOS, except BASIL's mom and aunt (ELENORE and MOLLY MOO). It seemed fitting since they were all basically surviving and being fed scrapes, fighting other cats and dogs. They were living off a dangerous street where people were actually poisoning the cats. So BASIL has never known the street life. She has lived a nice pampered life. The two sister moms raised their kittens together so we really don't know if ELENORE or MOLLY MOO is her mom. BASIL is a very sweet girl. She likes to cuddle with her siblings and cousins. She loves to sit by the window. She loves pets and will lift her tail and purr. Her foster tells is she loves to snuggle and hide under the covers with her human. Our beautiful girl has not lost her love. We got her adopted at 6 months and her family returned her after a year and half because they were "supposably" allergic to her. We were so disappointed that she had to have her heart broken like that. BASIL is DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / ABYSSINIAN MIX. She is about about 2 years old. She is good with cats and dogs. She has lived with young children. BASIL is currently at a foster home in Indio, California. ADOPTION PROCESS: 1. Go to Workinwhiskers.com (Click on ADOPT) 2. Fill Out Online Form 3.

Now he is ready to be adopted. ABEL is still a bit shy. But once he warms up, he likes to play and will allow pets. He loves his soft food and treats. He will need a loving home. He has been learning from his foster siblings how not to be shy. But he prefers to hang out on a cat tree by himself. ABEL is a AMERICAN SHORT HAIR / BOMBAY MIX. He is about 2 years 5 month old and is good with cats. In his foster home, he was around other kittens, older cats and a big dog. He has never been around children.

Story
PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW BEFORE YOU RESPOND. It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. TAZ was born in a foster's home. His family came from a horrible situation. There were 10 cats saved. 6 of them were pregnant (one of them being HARRY's mom). They were all living in a yard in a garage in Moreno Valley, California. The moms were all named after SUPER HEREOS. It seemed fitting since they were all basically surviving and being fed scrapes, fighting other cats and dogs. They were living off a dangerous street where people were actually poisoning the cats there. So TAZ has never known the street life. He has lived a nice pampered life. As you can see in the pictures, he is loved and spoiled. TAZ is a very sweet and talkative boy. Loves to wrestle and play with all his siblings and foster siblings. He also likes to cuddle with his human foster family. He has lived with dogs. He has the most silky gray coat. He has a sweet friendly personality and so much fun! TAZ is very energetic!!! He loves cat toys, tubes, and the cat tree. He is very spoiled! He loves snacks and treats. He can be picked up but would rather be able to come to you for snuggling and a good ear/ belly rub. TAZ is amazing and deserves a marvelous forever home!! TAZ is a DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / ABYSSINIAN-TIGGER MIX. He is about 23 months old and is ok with cats and dogs. He has never been around young children. He would probably do best as an only cat. TAZ is currently at a foster home in Hemet, California. ADOPTION PROCESS: 1.
