Story
Turkish Van mix Spayed Female 1 year 9 pounds Looking to rehome my beautiful sweet female cat. She’s around 1 year old, social and very playful. Spayed, chipped, and extremely healthy with a soft, silky coat–records at All Pets Animal Hospital in Encinitas. I have had her for 6 months and have not been able to integrate her with my older resident cat. She is well behaved—uses her litterbox and doesn’t scratch the furniture. Hoping to find a safe, loving and welcoming home for her. If you are interested in adopting Jasmine, please contact Jean @ jeankeyes@cox.net *PLEASE NOTE: This animal is listed as a courtesy for another organization or private party. This pet has not been evaluated medically or behaviorally by Rancho Coastal Humane Society and is not in our care.

Story
*** Katy is in a foster home ***White w/black patches Turkish Van mix, long hair, spayed female, born approx. 10/1/22, #18044Cats: likes--feline friends suggested!Dogs: unknownChildren: adults onlyAlong with the rest of her litter, Katy was rescued from the streets as a young kitten. The family made their way to The Rescue House, and after a little TLC in foster care, they began to flourish. With all of her siblings adopted, the time now has come for Katy to find her forever home too! On most days, you can find Katy embracing the true San Diego spirit by soaking up the sun in her favorite spot by the window. Naptime is a must for this fluffy beauty, especially after an afternoon of games and frolicking with her foster friends. Katy loves mealtimes and is vocal about making sure you know when it is time to eat! Katy's other favorite pastimes playing with interactive toys. While she likes to wrestle, cuddle, and frolic with kitten friends, she also is able to be independent and self-entertain. Adopting Katy isn't just for anyone. She is going to need a very special person who understands that she is exceptionally timid and reserved. Katy likes to explore gingerly at her pace and retreat back to her safe space (under a bed) when she feels overwhelmed or afraid. If you pick her up, her whole body tightens; however, she slowly will become less tense as you pet her. When in an environment where she is comfortable, like atop a cat tree, she will accept your caress and purr away in delight! Katy is soft and has wonderfully luxurious fur like a bunny rabbit, so petting her is a treat for you both! Katy is sociable with other cats and makes feline friends easily. She hasn't met dogs or young children yet, so we aren't sure of her feelings about them. Given that she is bashful, we believe a tranquil, quiet adult-only home would suit her best. Girls just want to have fun, and this gal is simply looking for the right place to host her parties-she loves a good romp with a wand toy! Do you have room in your heart and home for Katy?

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Marisol is a sweet 5 year old white Turkish van cat with patches of gray on her head. She loves to cuddle & play. It took her a few days to feel comfortable and warm up to the people in her foster home. Once she is comfortable she loves to be close to her people. She is not a lap cat but she loves soft pets and headbutts and sometimes even grooming her human’s hair. She is very tolerant of the young kids in her foster home (ages 8 and 10), even allowing them to pick her up, but she seems to prefer lower energy and often hides from the kids when she hears them coming.  She loves her cardboard scratchers and playing with a laser pointer. Sometimes she flings feathers or small balls in the air and it’s so cute. She gets along great with Chester the kitty she is fostered with. Apply to meet her today at www.Dreamar.org Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 29, 2024, 1:21 pm

Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. YAZHU and what we believe are his siblings were saved from a really rough neighborhood in LA County. This wonderful group that helps out people in that area do TNR (Trap - Neuter - Return) saved them. So the adults were all TNRed and the kittens were sent to rescues. We took on YAZHU and his siblings (YING - YANG - YISRAEL - YAWEN). YAZHU has been ready for his FUREVER home for a long time. Meet YAZHU, a cat with a personality that is as varied as it is endearing. Independent and brave, he is a feline who thrives on his own, yet is always ready for a game of chase. His smart and mellow nature makes him an excellent companion for quiet evenings. Despite his shy and timid demeanor, YAZHU has a sweet, curious, and goofy side that shines through once he warms up to you. He's known to be a bit skittish, but his love for treats always wins out. YAZHU is not just funny and playful, but he also brings joy and laughter to everyone around him. If you're looking for a cat who is full of surprises and will keep you on your toes, YAZHU is the one. His unique personality and love for life make him the perfect addition to any home looking for a little extra love and laughter. YAHZU absolutely has the personality of a Turkish Van cat. His personality is best described as energetic, playful and fun-loving. Turkish Vans like to be cuddled and held on their own terms, though not for long periods of time. But YAHZU does come look for pets. And he is totally treat motivated! YAZHU is a DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TURKISH VAN MIX. He has a black spot on his nose, black on his ears and a black tail. He is 3 years and 5 months old He has never been around small children. In the rescue he has been exposed to dogs and he is quite curious about them. He absolutely loves all cats!

It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don't know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. CASION and CASSIE were living in really bad area of Torrance, CA. The independent rescuer was asked to help get the local strays fixed and save these 2 teenagers. We were more than happy to help! These poor little guys were so malnourished, sick and scared. So once there was space at our rescue, we picked them up! Meet CASION, a young, sweet, and independent soul. His curious nature leads him to explore every nook and cranny, while his goofy side keeps everyone around him amused. Gentle and mellow, CASION also has a funny streak that will leave you chuckling. He's smart, playful, and brave, yet retains a shy side that makes him all the more endearing. His favorite thing in the world? Can food! He can't resist it. CASION's diverse personality traits make him a wonderful companion. His independence means he's content on his own, but his playful and loving side means he'll always be there when you need a friend. Adopt CASION and let his sweet, goofy charm brighten your everyday life. We would love to see CASION go home with her brother CASSIE. They are not bonded. But they have lived together all their lives. The average lifespan of a cat is 13 to 20 years. That said, it’s not uncommon for cats to live into their late teens or twenties. Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. CASION is DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TURKISH VAN-TUXEDO MIX. He is about 2 years old and 6 months. He is good with cats. He has never been around young children or dogs. CASION is currently at our rescue in Hemet, California. ADOPTION PROCESS: 1. Go to Workinwhiskers.com (Click on ADOPT) 2. Fill Out Online Form 3.
