Story
Simba looks like a little lion and absolutely adores other cats. My family has a cat and she doesnt want anything to do with him, but Simba will still try to play w/ her so it would be great to have other welcoming cats w/ him. He is a little lover & I’m gonna hate to see him go. Hes absolutely perfect, but my schedule just doesnt fit with a cats needs. He deserves much more than what I can give him. Hes about 7 months & neutered. I want to make sure he goes to the right home as he is so precious.

Story
These kittens were born in my closet and have never been outside. Their mom is also an indoor cat, as well as their dad. We just didn’t neuter him in time when we got him. They are both pretty healthy, they shouldn’t have any health issues. The parents as well. They’re both very playful and curious of course. The one with the spot over his nose is more laid back, he loves to cuddle and nap. The other one with the spot over his chin is a little more mischievous and adventurous. They are both very nice and allow any kind of handling from humans. I have a 1.5 year old and a 3 year old - who have been picking them up and stuff since they could walk around and the cats have never harmed them. They don’t bite or scratch intentionally. We also have a golden retriever and they don’t mind her either.

Story
Pampered pair Max and Katie are a bonded pair of 13-year-old cats. Unfortunately, they lost their longtime humans who loved and pampered them. Max is a brown boy with some black tabby stripes; his buddy Katie is more tortie with some warm brown and gray in her soft fur. Katie and Max groom each other, and spend time together. They are friendly, and like petting attention from people too. Max especially loves a good brushing. Katie is a talker and she chitters to herself or to her foster. Both will roll over for a nice tummy rub. These two neatnicks keep themselves clean and don't even kick litter out of their box. They don't jump on things or chase each other around the house. They stroll quietly. Katie and Max are good laid-back cats who seem most content when just hanging out and relaxing, which makes them easy pets to care for and to love. To meet Max and Katie, text Gina Hall at 949-330-0892. Visit lagunawoodscatclub.com to see all our cats who need homes.

Story
Pu’ukani is Hawaiian for “sweet voice” because she has a sweet meow. She came to us as a kitten - just appeared out of the jungle one day. She was about 8 weeks old & that was 6 years ago. She is a torti. She’s a wonderful lap cat. She’s shy at first, but once she knows you she’s a love & will be your Netflix binge watching buddy. She’s not a fan of dogs but has always been good with people. I have another cat & they get along but aren’t bonded. I am looking for a home because I just moved & despite our best efforts to keep the cats outside during the day & in the garage at night my fiancé is badly allergic. Pu’ukani has always been an indoor/ outdoor cat so the current living situation is not ideal for her either. Looking for someone to give her the love that she is used to receiving. She is a loving cat & well behaved.

These pups are in Mission Viejo, California too!
