Pierre

American Shorthair

Male, Adult

Chula Vista, CA

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Pierre is a super affectionate cat. If something of a lap-cat. He loves people, and he loves being pet. He is one of the loviest cats I’ve ever known. He’s sometimes more like a dog than a cat, and will even play fetch. He needs someone who can give him lots and lots of attention, as well as someone who can be considerate of his allergy to outdoor dirt. If you’re taking him, you can’t be walking in your house with shoes on. Honestly one of the big reasons we have to let him go is because we have roommates who cant respect this rule. He also can not go outside, he will get red all over and itchy. If you can manage that, he is a wonderful cat who not only loves attention but gives it. (He will lick you like a puppy!) I don’t know if he’s good with dogs or kids, I don’t think he’s ever been exposed to either.

Nene

American Shorthair

Male, Senior

Chula Vista, CA

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Nene! This handsome, resilient, and lovely boy came to us as a sick, injured stray looking for help. We took him in, got him fully vetted, and he quickly decided he loved living indoors. Despite a rough past—he arrived with healed ear notches, a shortened tail tip (likely an old street injury), and fear of sudden movements or broom handles (That have slowly dissapeared, though some remain). Nene is a gentle soul who has come so far. He gets along wonderfully with our cat Nori and thrives in a loving environment. Unfortunately, our dominant resident cat is territorial and aggressive toward him, leaving Nene feeling stressed and constantly on alert. After everything he’s survived, Nene deserves a peaceful, safe forever home where he never has to worry again. He would do great with another friendly cat or as a cherished solo companion in a quiet household.

Story

We got her when she was 2 and she was a little timid at first. When she warms up to you all she wants is to be pet and cuddle. She’s been in and out of the shelter i believe twice before us so i would hate to have to bring her back there.
