We were asked to find them good homes. So they went with one of our fosters. Meet GARFIELD: The Resilient, Shy Orange Tabby Ready for His Forever Home! GARFIELD is a sweet, shy orange tabby with a heart full of potential. He was part of a TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) project in El Monte, where he was rescued after living as a stray. He had a rough start in life, struggling with illness, but his resilience and strength have carried him through.

Garfield LOVES playing with toys, and his playful side shines through when he’s feeling safe and secure. He also has a special fondness for other cats, and would likely do well in a home with fellow feline friends who can help him feel more confident.

What Garfield Needs: A patient adopter who understands his shy nature and can give him time to adjust. A calm, quiet environment where Garfield feels safe and can take things at his own pace.

Time, understanding, and a willingness to let him come to you on his terms. Why Adopt Garfield? GARFIELD may be shy at first, but he has a world of potential to be someone’s best friend. He’s come a long way from his difficult beginnings, and with the right environment and patient adopter, GARFIELD will make a wonderful companion. His love for playing, his affection for other cats, and his resilient spirit show that, given the chance, GARFIELD will bring joy and comfort to any home.

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. There was so many dead cats and feces everywhere. We pulled 55 cats that were still alive. Our rescue took 26 of those cats into out rescue. STEWART was one of the lucky ones to get out alive. Meet STEWART (or as his friends call him, Stewy), a gentle 5 year old tabby with a heart as soft as his plush, striped fur. This shy yet sweet boy hails from Lucerne Valley, CA, and has experienced quite the journey to becoming the loving companion he is today. While STEWART might be reserved at first, he has blossomed into a calm and affectionate cat who now craves gentle pets and quiet moments of connection with his caregivers. His favorite place to be is curled up in a cozy corner of his catio, where he can soak up the sun’s warm rays while lounging in his beloved cat tower. STEWART’s world revolves around the simple pleasures in life—especially his favorite treat, a Churu. He’ll happily let you pet him while indulging in this tasty reward, making snack time a special bonding experience. His transformation into a more confident and social cat is truly inspiring, especially considering his humble beginnings. While STEWART is still a bit shy, he draws immense confidence from the company of other cats. He thrives in the presence of feline friends, finding joy and reassurance in their companionship, and would love to share his new home with another gentle cat or two. He really shines when surrounded by other cats who are soaking up love and attention, making him the perfect addition to a multi-cat household. STEWART’s tender heart and quiet courage are just waiting to bring peace and warmth into the lives of his future family. He’ll need a patient and loving environment where he can continue to blossom at his own pace, but the reward will be a sweet, loyal companion who’s ready to fill your days with contented purrs and sun-soaked afternoons. Could your home be the peaceful sanctuary STEWART has been waiting for? He’s ready to meet his new loving family!

Our volunteer saw her posted on Nextdoor and felt so bad for her. She picked her up to find out that the ZELENA was dumped by her previous family. We got her fully vetted. Unfortunately she was pregnant at the time. We were unaware that she was at the time of the appointment. Meet ZELENA, a radiant orange tabby female from Murrieta, California, whose warm golden coat is only rivaled by the warmth of her purring heart. With a personality as bold as her beautiful coloring, ZELENA is a curious, affectionate lap cat who’s equal parts snuggly companion and sassy queen. ZELENA is the kind of cat who knows exactly what she wants—and what she wants most is your attention. She adores being petted and will reward you with a full-on purr symphony the moment your hand reaches her soft fur. Whether you’re reading a book or working on your laptop, expect ZELENA to climb into your lap, settle in like royalty, and make herself perfectly at home. While she’s full of love for people, ZELENA prefers to reign as the solo feline in your kingdom. She thrives as the center of attention and would be happiest in a home where she doesn’t have to share her space (or your lap!) with other cats. Her playful curiosity and people-oriented nature make her the ultimate one-on-one companion. ZELENA has a touch of feistiness that only adds to her charm—think of it as spice in the sweetness. She’s spirited and independent, with a dash of diva flair, and she’s not afraid to let you know when she needs some personal space. But once she’s had a little time to herself, she’s right back to being your affectionate shadow. This large-and-in-charge lady is looking for a loving home where she can stretch out, soak up affection, and finally enjoy the peace and pampering she’s been waiting for. Are you ready to meet a lap cat with personality, purrs, and a whole lot of heart? To learn more or to adopt ZELENA, please apply at: Workinwhiskers.com. ZELENA is DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TABBY MIX. She is about 3 years and 1 month old and is tolerant of other cats. She has not been around young children She has never been around dogs.

Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. So don't let that discourage you from adopting an adult cat! Rescue Mama has had 3 live into their 20's. One was 8 weeks old. CORA HALE, her mom NATALIE MARTIN and her 4 siblings (KIRA YUKIMURA, THEO RAEKEN, LIAM DUNBAR and MALIA TATE) were rescued from the a backyard. Rescue mama was called that the neighbors were not being kind to the little family. So a trapper went out and trapped the family and brought them to our rescue. With all the chaotic rescuing going on in the summer, we were not able to get out kittens into our regular clinic. We were offered a different clinic and we made the appointments. To our dismay 7 of the 18 cats sent to this clinic ended up in the emergency room. CORA HALE was one of them. Her incision opened and were were able to save her. Our little CORA HALE has been through so much tragedy at such a young age. She deserves a wonderful home that will love her and want to give her a TRUE FUREVER home. Meet CORA HALE, a shy and sweet orange and white tabby from a quiet corner of the world, whose timid nature is perfectly balanced by her love for fun and food. CORA HALE is the kind of cat who needs a little time to warm up, but once she feels safe, her quirky side really shines. You’ll often catch her hissing at first, but don’t let that fool you—she’s just a little hesitant at the start. With patience and understanding, CORA HALE becomes the sweetest companion, especially when she’s surrounded by her favorite things: catnip, treats, and a good can of wet food. CORA HALE's love for catnip is nothing short of legendary—once she gets a whiff, it’s like a switch flips, and she’s ready for all the crazy antics that come with it! Her playful side also comes out when you toss a toy her way; she’ll chase and bat it around like the happiest little kitty. But what really brings her joy is having a fellow feline friend around. CORA HALE absolutely thrives in the company of other cats, and she would benefit from having a friendly, confident cat to help her feel more secure and comfortable in her new surroundings. A cat companion who can show her the ropes and help her build confidence would make all the difference in her journey. CORA HALE would do best in a quiet, loving home where she has time to acclimate and get used to her new family. A patient pet parent who understands the value of giving her space when she needs it, and gently encouraging her with treats, play, and a little love, will see her blossom into the affectionate and playful companion she’s meant to be. Are you the gentle, caring family who can help CORA HALE bloom into her most confident self? Reach out today at Workinwhiskers.com CORA HALE is DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TABBY MIX.
