Story
Hey there- it's me Earl Grey and I'm pleased to meet you! I am a one and a half year old, neutered male, domestic shorthaired kitty who is medium sized. I am the kinda guy who takes a minute to warm up, but once I trust you, we will be besties! Approaching me with love and soft words will definitely help me come out of my shell! I love to play with toys like ping pong balls, felt mice and pipe cleaners- they are so much fun! I can show you my hunting skills- watch me grab that mousie and fling it in the air! It's such fun! If you are looking for a kitty that is equal parts chill and thrill, I'm your dude!

Story
Greetings folks, it is I, Matcha! I am a one and a half year old, spayed female, medium sized, domestic shorthaired kitty looking for new digs to call my own. I would love to go home to folks who understand that shy kitties like me take time to acclimate in new situations, and that good things come to those who wait. I enjoy napping in warm sunshine, batting around toys like felt mice and snacking on yummy treats in the middle of the day. I don't ask for much, just your love and as many soft blankets to snooze on as possible- think like The Princess and the Pea! If I sound like your ideal new feline friend, come take a trip to the shelter and ask for me- Matcha ID#A974554.Unless otherwise indicated, adoptable animals are located at our Lantos Center for Compassion at 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010.  You may call us at 650-340-7022 to schedule an appointment, or just drop by.

Hey world, I'm Pediasure! I'm a 1 year old, domestic short haired, mostly brown torbie, spayed female cat who is medium sized. I'm a shy yet friendly girl who loves playtime sessions!

Video Available! Hello future friends, my name is Lucius. I am a 9 year old, grey domestic short haired, neutered male who is medium sized. I am a very shy but gentle lad who can get very anxious when I am in any new surroundings. I take some time to warm up so I would do best in a home with someone who has experience with getting shy guys like me out of my shell. Once I get comfortable with you I love receiving affection and will come to you for more. If you like shy lads like myself come on down and say hi to me!

Greeting my friends, my name is Eve. I'm a 6 month old, domestic short haired, black, spayed female cat who is medium sized right now. I've been described as a shy gentle gal who absolutely loves to play and be pet once I get comfortable. My favorite pass times are chasing my toy mouses and ping pong balls. Once I'm tired out I'd just love to hang out with you and relax. If I sound like your type of gal come down and meet me!
