Story
His name is Ramires, but he also answers to Michupichu and Negro. He is an indoor cat, since I got him at 3 months he became an indoor cat and it was difficult because he was used to the outside, still, I managed to make him an indoor again. The problem is that he is very anxious and gets easily stressed by anything. My grandpa is the main problem here because he always scares him and makes him anxious by screaming at him, he also was the one who kicked him out of the house multiple times and got him used to being an outside cat. Every time he kicked him out, the cat would get stressed and his skin gets really really dry and starts getting pimples and scabs which he always licks and scratch, making it an infection at some point. Right now he has that, and I took him to the vet to start with his treatment, but because he got used to the outside he will always escape and I can’t keep up with his treatment like that, I need someone to get him used to again to be inside and keep treating h

Story
We adopted Chanel from a shelter here in Carson, California. I still have the adoption papers. She is 3 years old I think. She has been spayed. Is a chubby cat and likes to eat. We adopted her almost 2 years ago, but my daughter is leaving town for college far away and we are too busy to take care of the cat. Because we want Chanel to go to a good home, we are offering $200 CASH incentive to prospective adopters.

Story
Brownie (F, tortoiseshell, short hair) was rescued from a residential area in West Torrance in July 2022. Born in May 2022, she is spayed and vaccinated. We prefer for her to go to a home with another cat, as she loves sleeping with our resident adult cat. She is shy around humans and runs from reaching hands, so the best way to approach her is when she is cuddling with another cat. Brownie loves to nap with her sister and cozies up to our older resident cats for grooming. She enjoys being in the same room as her humans, though she avoids reaching hands and doesn't enjoy being picked up. She takes a couple of pets if she's already lounging, but she doesn't enjoy being petted for long. We're confident with patience and time to build trust, Brownie will be a loyal cat in your home. Compared to her sister, she goes harder than her sister for feather toys, and is the loudest meower at meal times. You can learn more about Brownie at: instagram.com/rosiesacademy/

Story
Muffin (F, tan tabby, short hair) was rescued from a residential area in West Torrance in July 2022. Born in May 2022, she is spayed and vaccinated and ready for their forever home. Muffin, as seen with her sister Brownie, are being fostered in a home with young children and adult cats, so they are great with both. We prefer her to go to a home with another cat, as she loves sleeping and wrestling with our resident adult cat. She is initially shy around humans and runs from reaching hands, but she purrs for pets if you approach her while she's lounging. Muffin has a nightly cuddle appointment with her favorite human in the house, where she sits on our chest while we're at our desks. When she's feeling generous, she'll shuffle between her #1 and #2 human in the house for cuddles and pets. While Muffin has tested FIV+, she is healthy and happy with no symptoms while living with our FIV- cats. You can learn more about Muffin at: instagram.com/rosiesacademy/
