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. I am very vocal in letting you know I want your attention. One thing I must add is I will hide when I hear strange loud noises. I will come out of hiding once I feel safe again. 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. FYI, my grandma plays me my favorite song; Little Latin Lupe Lu by the Righteous Brothers. 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
Butterfinger is a very sweet and loving 5-year-old cat. I adopted her from a shelter in Sherman Oaks, CA in June 2020 when she was 3 months old and I was living on my own, but I’ve recently had to move back home where my family already has a few pets, and unfortunately, she’s terrified of all the other cats & dogs and it’s starting to affect her health. Because of this, she is currently very small for her age. Ideally, I’d love to find her a happy home where she’ll be the only pet, however, she would be fine paired with a small dog. She’s been spayed, she’s up-to-date on vet visits, and she’s the sweetest cat. She loves to cuddle & make biscuits, and she deserves a home where she’s loved, happy, and most of all, healthy.

Story
Buttercup came into our life by surprise in late 2023 she was sleeping on our porch and we tried finding if she was lost since she was a very social and trained cat. No one would claim her so she became part of our home. I welcomed by baby girl Oct 2025 and she isn’t reacting well to the cat. Buttercup is a sweet and cuddly cat. She is very social and loves to be around people. She is litter box trained. She loves to hang around and cuddle. She will play from time to time but prefers to be cuddling. She is very sweet to any visitor. We have not had any incidents of her scratching or biting unless she’s playing where she playfully will nibble. She also likes to be on a couch and will not scratch. We trained her to not scratch on surfaces.

Story
My mom and sister were shopping at Walmart 3 years ago and they saw a man with free kittens. My mom decided to take her and keep her, we love her but we are allergic to her and want her to go to a great home where she can be happiest. She also knows how to sit and knows when we’re about to give her food. We ask her if she’s hungry and that’s when she’s gets all happy.

These cats are in Riverside, California too!

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
When in the presence of Joie now, you'd never guess two KD foster parents found her and her brother Shahdow and sister Moon the Chimera hovering near an apartment complex dumpster on a chilly October night in 2023 when they were just two months old. With crusted eyes, sniffling noses, and starving bellies, each struggled to survive their unfriendly environment. Thankfully, their rescuers didn't hesitate to scoop them up and bring them indoors where they'd be safe and fed. Still, because the babies were in such dire condition, their new guardians worried they might not persevere. Later, when they shuttled the kittens to our vet, he diagnosed them with severe upper respiratory infections, a bad case of ringworm, and critical malnourishment. Love and care can work wonders and make all the difference to needy kitties. Combined with Joie's will to survive, she and her siblings gradually recovered, growing stronger and healthier each week. Joie's spirit glows exceptionally bright and vibrant. At only a few months old and despite not feeling her best, Joie frequently clambered onto her human caregivers, seeking love and affection. She also demonstrated an enduring curiosity about the world around her. As she's grown, her playful spirit and affectionate nature have become two of her most defining features. Her foster parents attest that Joie's purrs and cuddles make life much brighter. Of course, like many kitties, Churu treats motivate her, but she genuinely adores lounging with her people and other kitties in her midst. She jumps at the opportunity to make new kitty friends, too, but pups make her a bit anxious, so we believe she'd thrive best in a dog-free home. Joseph Campbell famously said, "Follow your bliss," but if you had Joie ever-present, there would be no need for the quest. She is happiness in motion wherever she goes and freely bestows it upon everyone she meets. If you're seeking joy to brighten your days, don't hesitate to fill out an adoption application for Joie today at www.kittydevorerescue.org!

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!
