Story
Walter is a 5-month-old orange-and-white kitten with soft fur and the most soulful eyes. Rescued from a rough start, he’s a bit shy at first—but once he feels safe, he opens up into a sweet, loyal, and affectionate companion. Walter is looking for a calm, patient home where he can settle in at his own pace. He enjoys quiet cuddle time and relaxing near his human once he feels secure. He’s starting to explore and play more each day, building confidence slowly but surely. Walter is neutered, vaccinated, healthy, and fully litter box trained. He gets along well with gentle cats and might do okay with a respectful dog, but he’ll thrive best in a peaceful household. If you’re interested in giving Walter the loving home he deserves, please reach out by email or text and tell us a little about yourself—your age, location, experience with cats, and what drew you to Walter. The adoption fee will be discussed with the right adopter. Thank you for considering this tender-hearted boy and offering him a second chance

Story
Meet Ollie (grey+white short hair) and Rocky (orange tabby), a bonded pair of 4 year old kitties. They are currently being fostered in Berkeley, CA after a family friend passed away. Sadly the family fostering can't keep them because they already have two cats. They're a little nervous from the transition (they were very attached to their elderly owner who died) but are a sweet pair. Will purr and make biscuits when you pet them, and meow hello when you talk to them. They will come with 3 months worth of food + litter as well as an up to date vaccine record and brand new cat beds and a new cat tree!! We are spoiling them during this transition time. They were the only kitties at their previous residence, so ideally they could use a pet-free home, one with older kids or adults only.
