Story
Ham and Elvis are the sweetest bonded brother duo! They are both 3 years old. I have another cat with special needs and unfortunately, Ham and Elvis do not get along at all. Since my other cat is blind, she is not able to defend herself again Ham and Elvis, making it a stressful situation for everyone. After a year and a half of trying every remedy possible, I am making heartbreaking decision to rehome them. Ham (brown tabby) is an extremely social and energetic cat. He loves to play with his wands toys and also loves going on supervised walks outside. His bother Elvis (tuxedo) is a little more timid, but still loves to play and cuddle once he is comfortable with a person. They are both incredibly loving and funny cats. Most importantly, they love each other. Which is why they are only able to be adopted as a pair. Some things to note: Ham eats a special urinary diet (Purina Pro Plan Urinary Care and wet food) and Elvis eats that as well, since they eat their meals together.

Story
Tata has been part of my family for the past three years since we adopted her from the Riverside animal shelter. She’s now 4 years old. She’s a sweet, affectionate girl who loves greeting people with gentle head rubs whenever they come home. She’s very low-maintenance, once she knows someone is around, she happily goes off to do her own thing and relaxes on her own. Recently, she’s been living with me in my small college apartment while my dad is in China for medical treatment. As much as I love her, the limited space has made my allergies much worse, and I’m away at school most of the day. I want her to have a home where she gets more comfort and company than I can give right now. Tata is a loving, easygoing cat who would make a wonderful companion in a calmer, more spacious home.

Story
One dark & stormy night this little cuddle bug showed up at our door demanding to be let in! She is affectionate, a quick learner (she avoids table tops and stays off counters) playful, a tiny bit spicy but doesnt bite hard, just slaps/nibbles if her boundaries arent respected. I have trimmed her toenails with no drama!! After over a week of found cat posters, posting her profile online, haunting cafes with her picture, stopping in at the local shelter to have her scanned for micro-chip (she is chipped and spayed but chip is not registered) we fear she was abandoned. We call her Kēki (Japanese for cake) because she is so sweet!! She does kitty pancake flops & waves her paws when she wants loves. She is potty box trained, & has obviously been around people her whole life which we think is about a year. Sadly we cannot keep her as my spouse & I both travel frequently to help our aging parents. Shes met kids & is fine but prefers calm energy. Shes great & deserves a furever home!

Patches is 1 and a half years old. She is an amazing, gentle, cuddly, soft sweet girl. She is the best cat I have ever met, she never scratches, has no issues with litterbox and is overall super sweet. Unfortunately I am not able to keep her as I live in a one bedroom with my partner and our one week old baby and she is not getting the space or love she needs. I want her to go to someone with more time and space to take care of the most wonderful kitty.

Story
Zuko is incredibly attentive and intelligent, I love him so. I adopted him in his first year from a shelter that was at capacity. He’s 3 years old now, can be a bit shy with people at first, but if you don’t try to smother him, he will become comfortable very quickly. He loves to be cuddled and pet on his head, chin, or back. He’ll chase a string in full stride around a room or to fetch small toys. He eats a canned wet food diet, he can get along with dogs that are not high energy. He enjoys being outside but the sound of cars will scare him. Even so, he is a good road buddy and will rest quietly in the car or on a plane. He is predominately indoors but when he is outside, he will try to catch and eat grasshoppers or other small bugs. He would do very well with another cat to play with. He is attentive and great at training. I do not just let him go outside on his own. He will watch a sunset or go fishing you. I will miss him very much.
