Story
I got this cat in 2023 when he was a small baby and I've raised him myself I am moving and the apartments are not gonna let me keep him I want him to go to a home I know where he will be able to live long and comfortably. He is really sweet and chill he never attacks hisses or anything. All he does is lay around and rub against you and eat .

Xavier is super calm and cuddly, he's house trained he doesn't get into trash or anything he's really a easy cat very loving. He loves to just be around you always he doesn't get in the way tho it's almost like he just wants to be in your presence. He came from a shelter he is micro chipped he gets along with other cats but im not too sure now since he's been with me I've had no other pets but he's very good with kids pretty much anyone he does get scared easily but he just like to be under a blanket when he's scared he's really good cat if someone wants him and cant afford him that's okay just give him to the best hm

Story
Hello Cat Whispers,My name is Lupita. I am a young 6 year old female who has to live indoors. I’m very loving, loves attention, loves to be held and showered with kisses on my little face.I am playful, love toys, love to cuddle with kids and adults. Unfortunately, my grandma's health has declined and she can no longer maintain my daily needs and wants. I will be sad to leave her but know she needs to take care of herself now. If you adopt me, just know I came from a loving home. P.S.If you're interested in an older cat, I also have a sister (Little Girl) on this website. She's quiet, easy going and loves adults and seniors.

Story
She is six years old her birthday is May 5th 2020. Very loving cat. I have had her since she was a kitten and it’s truly so so hard to rehome her. I have two other male cats and she is very territorial around them especially around food time. She is not given enough attention truthfully. I think she will have a better life in a single cat home. She needs lot of attention and does not like to be left alone for long periods of time. Such a sweet girl with so much personality. I do not have the time to give her the attention she deserves. I truly just want to find her a loving home she can live comfortably in.

Story
We adopted her as a kitten several years ago and have loved watching her grow into a wonderful companion. She is a calm, gentle, and easygoing cat who enjoys being around people without constantly demanding attention. She's affectionate in her own quiet way and has been an excellent indoor house cat.She recently gave birth to five beautiful kittens and has been an amazing, attentive mother. Because the kittens are still nursing, they must be adopted together with her so she can continue caring for them until they're old enough to be separated. Their health and well-being are our top priority.We're only rehoming her because we're moving and have a baby on the way. We're looking for a loving home where she and her kittens can stay together for the next several weeks and where she'll continue to be cherished as part of the family.Located in Fontana, CA. Willing to meet adopters within a reasonable distance.

Story
We rescued him in September 2025 after seeing a post online about an abandoned kitten in need of a home. He was just a baby, and he is now approximately 10 months old.We never imagined having to rehome him, but with an upcoming move and a new baby on the way, we're no longer able to give him the time and attention he deserves.He is truly one of the most loving cats we've ever been around. He loves people and always wants to be part of whatever is going on. He's not the type of cat to hide—he'll greet visitors, follow you around the house, and happily soak up all the attention he can get.He is very playful, affectionate, social, and thrives on interaction. He would do best with a family or individual who has plenty of time to spend with him, because he absolutely loves companionship and playtime.We are looking for a loving forever home where he will be treated like family and receive all the love and attention he deserves.Located Fontana, CA. Can meet adopters within reasonable distance

Story
Shirla and her two sons, Shadd and Shaydon, were admitted to Devore Animal Shelter in June of 2018, when shelter staff estimated Shirla to be about three years old. By an unusual bureaucratic twist, the little family was transferred to Riverside Shelter in early July. Although Kitty Devore Rescue pulls exclusively from Devore, we never stopped considering them “ours.” The KD team worked quickly to bring Shirla and her boys safely into our foster care program, where they finally landed exactly where they belonged. While her boys have long since found their forever homes, Shirla is still waiting for her perfect people to come along. Shirla is a spunky, confident, and delightfully feisty girl who knows what she wants and isn’t shy about it. She wants all the toys, all the treats, and all the attention, thank you very much. Though she’s a full-grown adult, she has the playful energy and spark of a much younger cat. Shirla expects to be queen of the household and would thrive as an only kitty, ruling her domain with confidence and charm. She’s fine with dogs, provided they respect her personal space. Above all else, Shirla is a people-cat. She truly loves human companionship and bonds deeply with her person. If you’re looking for a devoted, spirited companion to be your one and only, Shirla has been waiting patiently for you. Visit www.kittydevorerescue.org to fill out an adoption application and give this wonderful girl the forever home she deserves.

Story
We didn't know, and the shelter staff didn't know, but she was expecting when we rescued Rosy in early August 2023! Her foster parents didn't anticipate kittens as part of the fostering deal, but they learned the happy news after a veterinary exam appointment. We were concerned though. Rosy, just one year old then, was so thin and malnourished. We had just enough time to help her fortify her body in anticipation of her bundles of joy. A month after her rescue, Rosy welcomed identical gray quadruplets on September 6th - Ace, Charlie, Bootz, and her single daughter, Jannie. Rosy, just like an actual rose, takes time to bloom. Her foster parents discovered that patience and dedicated love enabled Rosy to blossom into the most loving of companions to humans and other cats alike. After a hard life on the streets, she relishes her leisure time and indoor life, lounging in her bowl scratchers for hours on end. She appreciates chin scratches and is endlessly fascinated with Bird TV. Above all else, she loves her treats and anyone can entice her with Churus or Temptations. Of course, these don't stunt her appetite. Rosy never misses a meal! As soon as she hears the pop of a can or the clattering of delicious pieces of goodness filling her bowl, she beelines to the kitchen faster than you can blink. Despite her rough start, she's landed soft, and her spirit remains resilient and indomitable. As a social girl, Rosy would thrive best in a home with other kitties and humans who strive to earn her trust and love. You'll know you've succeeded when she bestows you with your first love bite. If you're convinced Rosy is the perfect kitty for you, fill out an adoption application to adopt her today at www.kittydevorerescue.org!

Story
Nulo has always been the type of kitten who keeps you laughing all day long. This handsome dilute grey tabby may be quiet, but his personality is HUGE. One of his favorite hobbies is sneak attacking people during playtime: carefully creeping up before dramatically pouncing like the fierce little hunter he believes he is. He's outgoing, playful, curious, and always wants to be involved in whatever is happening around him. But once he is done showing off his silly side, Nulo turns right back into a cuddle bug who loves affection and hanging out with his people. At this point Nulo has really grown into the perfect balance of playful kitten energy and affectionate companion. He's social, lovable, and impossible not to adore. Nulo is fully vetted: fully vaccinated, fixed, microchipped, dewormed and flea treated. If interested in meeting Nulo, please start by completing the adoption application.
