Romi wants a forever home with someone who will take care of him and give him an INDOOR place to live. To meet this handsome cat, call or text Brandi at (619) 636-1866.

Story
Kyo is a sweet and outgoing 7 year old cat. He loves cuddles and being the center of attention. Champa is a loving but reserved 7 year old cat. He is loyal to the bone and just wants his pets. Champa does not enjoy being carried and will set his boundaries by bopping your hand. Both cats are neutered and have their vaccinations. They have never been socialized with dogs. Unfortunately I am not able to keep them due to restrictions in my apartment and my 1 year old having mild allergies. They have been my babies since they were born and it absolutely tears me to have to rehome them. I would prefer they stay together as they have never been apart but if I can find a loving home for each that’s okay too. I am willing to provide 2 cat litters and a big Costco bag of cat food.

Story
Reeses is a senior rescue cat adopted from Alessandro Animal Hospital in Moreno Valley. Unfortunately shelter doesnt have any history on her previous home. But we do know shes a total couch potato who wants to lounge beside her person all day, feel safe and be cuddled. She thrives with someone who is home often and enjoys quiet companionship. While she isnt very active due to age, she still enjoys playing with toys. Reeses struggles with severe anxiety, she has tummy alopecia from licking so much due to this. So she needs an experienced cat owner (not suitable for first-time owners). She has never been on anxiety medication, but calming supplements or medication may help if her new person feels its right. She has no chronic health issues, aside from anxiety. Another important thing is that she has difficulty consistently using the litter box and may urinate outside of it. This is anxiety-related and will require patience and time to correct. Please meet all her needs🩷!

Story
Meet Silverio – Our Chunky Hunk with a Sensitive Tummy and a Heart of Gold. Silverio isn’t just a cat—he’s a whole vibe. This gloriously chunky gentleman is equal parts sass, smarts, and snuggles (with a dash of drama). He’s living his best life on a hydrolyzed diet due to a sensitive GI system—and get this, he actually sticks to it! Even with tastier temptations nearby, this foodie follows the rules. At first, Silverio might play it cool. He’s been through a lot (have you tried digesting life with a sensitive tummy?), but once he feels safe, he transforms into a love-seeking missile. Expect head butts, purrs, and the occasional excited nibble—think of it as a spicy little love tap.He’s now leaner, comfier, and officially liking his catio cat-mates. He’s also become much more open to pets and cuddles, and approaches for pats to his cheeks, head, chin, and upper back....... Absolute heaven.Silverio needs an experienced human who understands that true love sometimes starts with slow blinks and ends with full-on cuddle puddles. If you’re looking for a hilarious, handsome cat, Silverio’s your guy.Silverio is at our Punta Mita Location and can easily be flown to the nearest airport to YOU in the USA or Canada!He has had our complete Cat protocol :* Complete Health exam by a Vet* Feline tests to rule out FeLV, FIV & Heartworm* Bloodwork 1: CBC (Mycoplasma check if indicated)* Bloodwork 2: Chem profile* Deworming at intake and monthly thereafter* Vaccines: Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis (FVR), Feline Distemper (FP), Calicivirus (FCV), Rabies* Spay/Neuter* Flea/Tick prevention* Microchipping available Please send us an application at : wetnosesrescue.org/adoption-application-Cats
