Story
Meet Opie, an approximately 3 year old purebred Persian from Turkey! Her original family tells us she is very friendly cat that is super relaxed around their friends cat when they go to visit them. Opie's family moved into a new home where a neighborhood cat was terrorizing the perimeter, Opie started inappropriately urinating around the house. They ruled out anything medical so it was clear that she was jut not a happy camper with the stress of the move and a not so nice neighborhood stray! With the help of some daily Gabapentin for 3 weeks, Opie stopped peeing. Even after the medication ended, she kept up the good work and still had no accidents! Unfortunately Opie's family no longer could take care of her so we were able to take her in. We are still getting to know her at the lounge and started her back on the medication just to keep things calm until she's settled. Thus far she has had no accidents too! Because of her breed and medical history, her adoption fee is $500.December 23, 2025, 3:08 pm

Story
Sugar is 2.5 years old, his current owner's job requirements have changed and he travels now frequently on international business trips. Sugar is very friendly, loves to play with kids, no special needs. No medical issues. He may be shy at the beginning but later on when his knows the owner/family, he is pretty relaxed and wants to be around his family. He loves to be on the couch when it's TV time. Hair cut can be given about once or twice a year, if needed. His hair grows long and beautiful. He needs to go to a friendly environment with responsible pet owners.

Story
Mackey is an old girl (11) but a special one she still likes to play and has spurts of her youthful energy. She is very cautious and but of a scardy cat in new situations and does not trust easily. She will be better one on one as she is older and just needs a calm environment. She will be good with someone who is sensitive and empathetic. She is really sweet and just needs a really good home. This is the hardest thing I have ever done and truly saddened to part with her 💔

These cats are in San Diego, California too!

Story
Hi! My name is Taylor Swift, and here’s a little more about me:My JourneyI’m ready to leave my outdoor days behind and move straight into palace life. I’ve decided it’s time to be adored, pampered, and appreciated the way a true queen deserves—and I’m very excited about this next chapter.My Social LifeOther cats: I can tolerate other cats, but I truly prefer to be the solo star.Dogs: I haven’t met dogs yet and would likely prefer a calm, respectful environment.Kids: I’d do best with older, cat-savvy humans who understand boundaries.My PersonalityConfident, affectionate, and unapologetically opinionated. I adore being pet and will reward you with loud, motorcycle-level purrs—especially if you focus on my head and tell me how beautiful I am. I’m very food motivated, and treats are the fastest way to earn my loyalty. While I love petting, I’m not a big fan of being handled and may protest until the proper petting begins.I Enjoy…Head pets and admirationTreats (seriously—this is the key to my heart)Lounging like the royalty I amQuiet time in my own personal spaceBeing the center of attention (as I should be)I’m Not a Fan Of…Being picked up or handled too muchCrowded or chaotic environmentsSharing the spotlight with too many other catsWhat Makes Me SpecialI’m a stunning torbie with a big personality and even bigger confidence. I know exactly who I am: a glamorous, affectionate queen who isn’t afraid to make her opinions known.My Perfect HomeMy ideal home is one where I can be the star of the show. I’d thrive in a calm household with someone who enjoys a confident, affectionate cat and respects my boundaries. A quiet space just for me is a must.My Special NeedsNone—just admiration, treats, and a throne (or couch) to call my own.

Story
Hi, I’m Linus!Yes, I’m from the same Charlie Brown–themed litter as Lucy and Charlie, but don’t let my size fool you — I may be the smallest of my siblings, but I’m also the bravest.I was found in a parking lot with my brothers and sisters, so I’m still a little unsure about humans walking around. But if you get down on my level, that’s where the magic happens. When I’m tired from playing, I’ll snuggle right in, purr happily, and remind you that even the tiniest Peanuts characters can have the biggest hearts.Playtime is my absolute favorite thing. I go bonkers for the Go Cat crinkle ball wand toy, and I’m obsessed with automatic toys — honestly, I could play all day. I love food just as much as I love toys (maybe more). Churu treats? Yes please. Any treats? Even better. I may be small, but I eat like a champ and never miss a snack opportunity.I’m so playful that I sometimes annoy my siblings by always wanting to keep the party going — what can I say? Life is exciting! When I finally power down, you’ll find me stretched out in a sunny spot, soaking up the warmth like a little sunbeam with whiskers.Because I’m still gaining confidence and thrive with feline companionship, I must go home with another kitten or into a home that already has a friendly cat. Having a buddy helps me feel safe, brave, and happy — kind of like having my very own security blanket.If you’re looking for a tiny, fearless, playful kitten with a huge personality and an even bigger appetite, I might just be your perfect Peanuts pal.
