Story
Meet Connor, a charming feline who's as sweet as sugar and playful as a kitten. His goofiness will keep you entertained while his curious nature will keep him exploring every nook and cranny of your home. This smart cat is observant, quickly picking up on routines, especially when it involves food. He's a bit wobbly, but that doesn't slow him down or dampen his spirit. He gets along well with other cats and dogs, making him a great addition to a home with other pets. Connor was living in a crawl space of an abandoned building in downtown San Jose.  It’s now been demolished.  He has been indoors since he was a month old. Connor's personality is truly irresistible, and his food-motivated nature makes training a breeze. Adopt Connor and you'll gain not just a pet, but a friend who will bring endless joy and laughter into your life. Conner is neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, flea treated, FeLV/FIV tested, and microchipped. He is currently living in San Jose, CA 95125 Conner is currently living in San Jose, CA 95125 Please note: Connor is ok with dogsIndoor home preferredMore information & application [ts=1750007284&src=aap]

Story
Neutered cat needs a new home. He can’t handle being with other my others cats so he needs to be an only cat. He grew up with guinea pigs so he can handle them since they are enclosed. He is litter trained. He has taken a liking for the outdoors so has potential of becoming an indoor/outdoor cat. If you would like to do a trial of Oliver in your home, I’m open to it, as long as you are local! We are in Sunnyvale, CA.

Story
Zoozoo: A gentle and affectionate soul, Zoozoo immediately warms up to people and adores human touch. She’s quick to return your call with a sweet little meow, and at night, she’ll quietly curl up near your feet just to be close. Her loving nature makes her an instant companion. Tantan: Intelligent and observant, Tantan is quick to master complex toys and puzzles. She’s also deeply bonded with her twin sister, often acting as her quiet protector. While she may be cautious during the day—perhaps due to a difficult past—she has a tender heart that blossoms with patience and trust. Their Story: Zoozoo and Tantan were born about a year ago to a friendly stray mother who was known to interact with people in the neighborhood even before her pregnancy. Along with a third sibling, they grew up near the Sunnyvale Costco area, where they became familiar with humans—often approaching for food and play. All three kittens were TNR’d (trapped, neutered, and returned) at around 3 months old. Unfortunately, due to shelter policies and limited resources, they were deemed too old for adoption intake and were left to remain outdoors. Tragically, in mid-April, their third sibling passed away suddenly with symptoms of foaming at the mouth. This loss deeply concerned our neighborhood, and we knew the remaining two deserved a safe, stable home. Wanting to give them a better chance, I (Lucy Lin) stepped in to foster them until the end of my lease—roughly three months. Why They Need a Home Zoozoo and Tantan have grown up around people and genuinely seek human connection. While they’ve never had a permanent home, their bond with humans is strong, and they crave attention, safety, and love. It’s time they find a forever family who can provide them with the care and stability they’ve never had. It would be ideal for someone with prior cat-sitting or caregiving experience to adopt both Zoozoo and Tantan together. Tantan deeply relies on her sister for emotional support — Zoozoo helps her feel safe and secure in new environments. Tantan may hiss or shy away from touch when she feels uncertain, especially during the first few weeks in a new home. A calm and respectful environment is best, and they would do well in a household with children aged 10 and up who understand how to respect a cat’s boundaries. That said, they are low-maintenance as long as they have each other. Their bond brings them comfort, making them independent and content companions. Tantan & Zoozoo are currently living in Mountain View, CA 94040 Please note: Tantan & Zoozoo should be adopted with a littermateMore information & application [ts=1750007284&src=aap]

Story
Lazlo is a very kind and cuddly cat. He loves to play and look outside. He is very shy at first but once he feels comfortable, he loves to get pets and kisses from you. Sweetest cat I ever known. I got Lazlo about two years ago when I lived in Anaheim but since I moved to San Jose about a year ago, I couldn’t dedicate the time to be with him since I’m working two jobs and he only stays with me. A calm environment is what he enjoys the most. Nothing loud and crazy because he really is a calm cat. He loves to play a few times a day but also likes to eat and sleep a lot. He has no medical conditions and is a very healthy cat. Lazlo is currently living in San Jose, CA 95112 More information & application [ts=1750007284&src=aap]

Story
Latte is a sweet 6-year-old girl with the gentlest heart. She adores people and greets you with the softest purrs, running up for pets and affection. Her signature move—making biscuits on the floor—never fails to bring a smile to our faces. She’s also an independent little lady. Latte loves her quiet time by the window, watching the world go by with curious eyes, and she’s perfectly content to relax beside you while you work. She’s the kind of cat who brings warmth and calm into a home—an ideal companion for someone looking for a mellow, loving friend. Latte hasn’t had the easiest journey. Her original owner left to study abroad and passed her along to a friend—but when that didn’t work out, she was left in a stressful environment, hiding under a sofa day after day. We found Latte through social media and knew we had to help. Since bringing her into our care, she’s had the space to decompress, and to our joy, her sweet and mellow personality began to shine through almost immediately. Given her past, Latte would do best in a calm, low-stress home where she can truly feel safe. She’d prefer to be the only pet—her last experience living with other cats was difficult (through no fault of her own, as she was never given a proper introduction). Latte is more than ready to be someone’s one and only—and she’ll repay that love with endless affection and purrs She is currently a bit overweight due to lack of exercise in her previous situation, so she’ll benefit from a balanced, portion-controlled diet and gentle playtime to help her get back to a healthy weight. With some patience and care, she’ll blossom into the happy, active cat she’s meant to be. Latte is currently living in Santa Clara, CA 95050 More information & application [ts=1750007284&src=aap]
