Story
Cuddly kittens need a home! Might it be yours? Hi! We are Freckles (a husky little black-and-white gentleman) and Diva (a brave, wiry little tabby girl). We are 8ish weeks old, recently plucked from the sweet feral life in Oakland, given our first set of kitten vaccines, and we're looking for a human(s) to make it up to us for the rest of our lives. We're prepared to reward you with clumsy but earnest little kitten hyperactivity antics, punctuated with spells of heavy lap sleeping and aggressive purring. We even tolerate the smaller variety of humans with aplomb. All we ask is your eternal devotion and attention and love and regular feedings. We are pretty into each other and would love to be adopted as a pair, but would entertain prospects individually as well. Message our temporary human if you're interested!

Story
Momo and Ami are a bonded pair, they both have been very good with my large dog. I found them poking around the dumpsters near the yoga studio I own a couple months ago and Momo was so charming I took them in (I believe they are around 7 or 8 months old). I can no longer have the sweet young cats as I have a new home with a housemate who has cat allergies and a dog with cat aggression. I am hoping to find a good home for them as they are very, very sweet. Momo is a sweet love bug who loves being snuggled and picked up for extra closeness. He purs loudly when picked up, not at all picky about who he shares his affection with. He's in it for the attention and cuddles. Ami is very beautiful, but is haunted by the ghost of a Victorian child and mostly keeps to herself. Once she warms up to you, you’ll find her sleeping next to you on the couch from time to time and if you are lucky you can pet her as well.

Story
If you would like to meet Frankie, please text Jamie at 925-980-9703 .   Frankie & Dash were born outside with their littermates where their mom, Mary, was part of a colony. When the kittens were days old, a trapper trapped Mary to spay her and realized that she was nursing kittens. The feeder looked around, located the kittens, and reunited them with their mother.   I took in this litter of four kittens and their mom and have been fostering them ever since. All have been adopted except Frankie and Dash. Although they are black kittens, and maybe not as photogenic as their sisters, they are just as cute, and have exceptional personalities. Frankie is 12 weeks old and adorable.    Frankie (female) is a sweet black kitten with a little tuft of white hair on her chest. She has been socialized since she was days old and is very comfortable with people, being held, and being picked up.   Frankie loves every toy that is offered to her. Even though she is petite, she makes up for it with her personality. She loves to climb on her cat tree and will entertain you for hours and provide you with endless love. She has been around all types of people, including young children, who are well-socialized and will easily adapt to her new home. Her mom has been a wonderful role model teaching her how to use the litter box, and the best way to groom yourself after a big meal. Frankie needs to go to a new home with Dash or to a home with another playful kitten or cat.   Frankie & Dash are with Community Concern for Cats. Their adoption fee includes all vaccines, dewormer, flea treatment, spay/neuter surgery and microchip.   If you would like to meet Frankie, please text Jamie at 925-980-9703 .

Story
If you would like to meet any of these kittens or their mom cat, please text Jamie at 925-980-9703.   Dash, Daisy, Frankie and Fiona were born outside where their mom, Willow, was part of a colony. When the kittens were days old, a trapper trapped their mom to spay her and realized that she was nursing kittens. The feeder looked around, located the kittens, and reunited them with their mother.   I took in this litter of four kittens and their mom and have been fostering them ever since. Kittens are now 8 weeks old and adorable. It also turns out their mama is friendly and very young. Luckily the colony of cats she was a part of were well taken care of by their feeder. Most likely Willow was dumped or abandoned as a teenager. But now she is also looking for her forever home.   Dash (male) and Frankie (female) are black kittens with a little tuft of white hair on their chest. Their sister Fiona (female) is a sweet, gray tabby and Daisy (female) is a black tabby and looks just like her mom! All four kittens are petite just like their mom. These kittens have been socialized since they were days old and are very comfortable with people, being held, and being picked up.   They love to play with each other and love every toy that is offered to them. Chase is one of their favorite games, they love to climb and are all very curious. They will entertain you for hours and provide you with endless love. They have been around all types of people, including young children, who are well-socialized and will easily adapt to their new home. Their mom has been a wonderful role model teaching them how to use the litter box, and the best way to groom yourself after a big meal. |These kittens need to go to a new home in pairs or to a home where there is another playful cat.   To see more cute photos of this litter, check out Daisy, Dash and Fiona's bios too!   Frankie, Fiona, Dash & Daisy are with Community Concern for Cats. Their adoption fee includes all vaccines, dewormer, flea treatment, spay surgery and microchip.   If you would like to meet any of these kittens or their mom cat, please text Jamie at 925-980-9703 .

Story
To learn more about Mia or meet her, please text Jamie at 925-980-9703 Mia was rescued from an open space area along with her two sisters. Expected to be semi-feral, she surprised her foster mom with purring cuddles when held for the first time. Although a bit shy, she is sweet, very gentle, and loves to play, especially with a ball. Her foster mom decided to name her after Mia Hamm, the famous soccer player. Mia is quite flexible and very entertaining when she grooms herself. View the video to see! She is a gentle soul and has a very sweet temperament. She loves to cuddle up near her foster mom at night and sometimes, you can find her cuddled with one of the resident cats.  Mia gets along with other cats and would do best in a household with another cat or adopted with one of her sisters.  She is hoping for a loving forever home where she will surely bring much joy!  Mia is approximately 5 months old. She has been spayed, dewormed, vaccinated and has a microchip. She is being fostered through Community Concern For Cats. If you would like to learn more about Mia and meet her at her, please reach out to Jamie at 925-980-9703 or stop by our adoption site.  Mia will also be at our adoption event this weekend.
