Story
Hello! I’m Stitch. I am a shy tabby who likes to keep to themselves but will snuggle on top of you and make biscuits, once I see that you’re comfy of course. Unfortunately, my human had some unexpected health issues and can no longer tend to me like she would be able to. I come with a carrier, litter box, automatic feeder and a litter box enclosure (so you don’t have to constantly see my toilet). Oh another thing, I’m not a fan of other cats but I do get along with dogs and children. Please reach out to my humans if you have any other questions about me.

Story
Name: Kai Age: 6 (turning 7 soon) Breed: Tabby Location: North Park, San Diego The Good Stuff: Very Intelligent: He’s smarter than your average cat and needs mental stimulation. Social Butterfly: Loves people and gets along great with other animals. He wants to be where the action is. Playful: Still has plenty of energy and loves to play. Special Considerations: Medical History: He has a history of a herniated disc. He is currently stable, but his tail has limited movement. He needs a home that understands he shouldn't be doing extreme jumping (like from high fences). Why Rehoming: He is desperate for outdoor time. I live in a condo that strictly prohibits it. The Ideal Home: He needs "safe" outdoor access (like an enclosed yard or catio) and ideally an animal friend to keep him company.

Story
🐾Bonded Sisters looking for their Furever Home🐾 I recently rescued these 2 sisters from a bad living situation after their owner abandoned them and they are in need of finding a loving, stable home together! They are bonded and have been through way too much to separate them.🤍🤍 They are about 1 years old and from the same litter. They have been indoor/outdoor kitties at an apartment complex. They are very sweet, loving and have playful personalities. They have been spayed. They are not up to date on vaccines. They are not microchipped. They get along with children and do ok around other cats. I am not sure how they are around other animals besides cats. They’ve had flea treatments, litter box trained, eat crunchies, soft food and drink water. They are healthy. These sweet love bugs deserve a second chance at a wonderful life so they can cuddle up and snuggle with you every night.
