Story
Bella is a very loving and playful 13 year old cat. She enjoys to lay in your lap and loves her toys. 12 years ago she showed up at my mom and partners door. She was very frail and skinny. They took her in and nursed her back to health and she was with them after that. 2 years ago my mothers partner passed away and my mom has been caring for her. Prior to her needing to move Bella would like to occasionally go outside . For the last 2 years she had lived in an apartment and been inside. My mom is needing to move again and unable to bring Bella. Bella loves to be nurtured and has been very lonely. We are wanting to find a home where she can get the love and attention that she deserves. She is in very good health. We have never had any health problems with her. She did need to have her front teeth but that does t stop her from eating dry kibble. She has not had enough time to be around other cats indoors so not sure how she would be but Insssume she would be fine after time

Story
He’s a very shy boy, but once he warms up to you he’s such a sweetheart. He loves scratches and pets on the head, shoulders, and bottom. He needs someone who has the time and patience for him to get comfortable and feel safe. And preferably a household with no other animals. He gets scared and reactive at times.

Story
Charlie also lovingly known as Charles Xavier or Mr. Chunks came into my life from a farmers market when I was 12 years old. He is now 16 years old and very much a gentle senior cat. Charlie enjoys a calm, cozy routine and spends most of his days sleeping in his cat tree by the window, soaking up the sunshine and fresh air. Due to his age, he is on a special diet for a sensitive stomach, which he does well with. He is a sweet old man who loves cuddles, gentle pets, and quiet companionship. We are looking for a loving, patient home where he can enjoy his senior years comfortably—ideally with someone who appreciates a laid-back, affectionate cat and can continue his dietary care. Charlie is best described as gentle, affectionate, calm, cuddly, and loving.

Story
MEET SONOMA! Sonoma was rescued from Devore Animal Shelter in November 2024 when he was just a month old, along with his mom, Fontana, and siblings Concord, Darlington, and Daytona. Too young to remember the shelter, he has grown up entirely in the safety and love of his foster home as part of the "NASCAR family." As very young kittens, the entire litter was quite ill, and while Sonoma recovered well overall, he was left with mild nerve damage in his hip area as a result of that early illness. Despite this, Sonoma is a happy, playful, and affectionate boy who enjoys life to the fullest. He loves chin scratches, responds with eager purrs, and is always ready for playtime--especially if it involves crunch balls, crinkle chutes, or cardboard boxes. His mobility and activity level are normal, and the nerve damage does not limit his ability to run, play, or enjoy daily life. He does occasionally experience urinary incontinence, something that is manageable and currently being supported with acupuncture treatments, which have been helping. Sonoma is otherwise a healthy, content, and loving cat. Sonoma is deeply bonded to his brother Darlington, and the two are constant companions--playing together, cuddling, and providing comfort and confidence to one another. Ideally, they would be adopted together into a calm, understanding home that values companionship and is comfortable with Sonoma's minor ongoing care needs. They are the last two kittens from their litter still waiting for a forever home. If you're ready to welcome this devoted pair into your life, please visit www.kittydevorerescue.org to submit an adoption application. ** Please note: Sonoma currently resides in a foster home in San Marcos, CA (San Diego County). Once an adoption application is approved, meet-and-greets are held at the foster home. Approved adopters should be prepared to travel for the visit.

Story
MEET DARLINGTON! Darlington was rescued from Devore Animal Shelter in November 2024 when he was just a month old, along with his mom, Fontana, and siblings Concord, Sonoma, and Daytona. Too young to remember the shelter, he has grown up entirely in the safety and comfort of his foster home. As a very young kitten, Darlington and his littermates were quite ill, but thanks to attentive care and lots of love, he made a full recovery and is now healthy, active, and thriving. Gentle, affectionate, and playful, Darlington is a sweetheart who adores chin scratches, lap snuggles, and cozy companionship. He’s also a joyful little character who loves collecting crunch balls, zooming through crinkle chutes, and investigating boxes as if they hold great secrets. Darlington is especially bonded to his brother Sonoma, and the two are rarely far apart—playing, lounging, and keeping each other company with an easy, affectionate rhythm that speaks to their deep connection. Darlington would thrive in a calm, loving home that values companionship and is open to welcoming a bonded pair. Ideally, he and Sonoma would be adopted together, as they are the last two kittens from their litter still waiting for a forever home and bring out the very best in one another. If you’re ready to open your heart to Darlington (and hopefully his brother Sonoma too), please visit www.kittydevorerescue.org to submit an adoption application. ** Please note: Darlington currently resides in a foster home in San Marcos, CA (San Diego County). Once an adoption application is approved, meet-and-greets are held at the foster home. Approved adopters should be prepared to travel for the visit.
