American Shorthair kittens & cats in Oxnard, California

Bernie was a street cat that we would often see picking fights with neighborhood dogs. He tested FIV positive and needs to be the only cat in the household so as not to transfer the disease. Humans and dogs cannot catch this. This is an immune disorder. He needs to be kept inside so that he doesn't get sick or injured and be the only pet. FIV cats can live long and healthy lives. Bernie is still a street cat at heart and is very aggressive toward other cats and animals. Though he is so loving and playful and can be picked up and held like a baby, he does have petting aggression mostly from being over stimulated. A treat will distract him. It might take a couple days for him to trust you but soon he becomes this big love muffin. He lives in our garage for now but needs a home where he is the star with an experienced cat owner. He comes with food, litter box and litter, cat tree, blankies, and toys. He really is the sweetest boy with a big personality. I wish we could keep him.

Give our cats & kittens a loving, forever home, and let them put a smile on your face!     Malina loves to play and purrs upon touch. A tortoiseshell, she has beautiful butterscotch and black markings. We call it catwalk camouflage - very stylish. Young Malina enjoys romping with her housemate kitties and is never mean. But she loves her alone time as well, curling up at the top of a cat tree to get her beauty snooze. Malina loves mornings and comes in to carefully perch on your covers and wake you so quietly with her whispered mews. She is a sweet alarm clock. This little gal is demure and observant. In a home with love and playtime, she will melt and become a cuddly sidekick. Fun quirk: She loves to play and pounce on feet under the covers. Such fun to watch her chase her much bigger bro, Fozzy! This little girl is a delight. Email foster at socalpetrescue1@gmail.com or fill out application at socalpetrescue.comVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 11, 2025, 7:55 pm

Bailey is an 11-year-old male American Shorthair with a thoughtful, observant nature. He takes time to warm up but enjoys being near people once he feels safe; then, his affectionate side shines through for a lucky few. Timid yet gentle, Bailey also has a playful streak and enjoys toys he can chase. He would do best in a quiet home with someone who has prior experience with cats. Unfortunately, he doesn't do well with other pets, and hasn't been around kids which is why I'm looking to rehome him. In the right environment, Bailey is an incredibly lovable companion.

Malina is a gentle young tortoiseshell with striking butterscotch and black “catwalk camouflage.” Playful yet mellow, she enjoys romping with her kitty friends but also cherishes quiet time curled up on a cat tree. A bit shy and cautious at first, Malina warms up with patience and loves gentle petting. She’s happiest being near you rather than on your lap, and shows her affection with soft purrs, quiet morning greetings, and gentle love blinks.

Sweet, friendly, healthy playful and affectionate kitten is looking for a good home. Likes sleep next to you or watch TV on your lap when she needs a break. Up to date with all shots, spayed and microchipped.

OMG KITTIES!!!! 😻😻😻 Mischief is afoot with this gang ;) Sweet and funny – each one is a little star in their own unique way! All are fixed, vaccinated, microchipped and confirmed healthy and cat-friendly. While they have not been dog-tested, they are adventurous souls who with time and slow proper introductions should come around (we are also happy to dog test any!). These guys are our neighbor’s cats who we are urgently looking for great indoor only homes for before she loses her housing. Shares are very much appreciated + homes outside of LA will definitely be considered for the right fit. Please email animalarmyla@gmail.com for more info. Thank mew! KITTY - 9 MONTHS - "MISTER MELLOW" Kitty comes when he’s called (which is impressive considering his name is currently “Kitty” in a house full of cats.) He’s mellow and cuddles. But watch out because he has a weakness for Cheeze-its and will steal them right out of your hand! 🧀 ALSO AVAILABLE ARE: SUKI - 1 YEAR - "LITTLE MISS LAPCAT" Suki was a teenage mini mama who’s so ready to move past that drama. Just a baby herself, she’s a social sweetie who’s a hybrid adventurer x snuggler. BOO - 9 MONTHS - "MISTER KNOWS WHAT HE WANTS" Boo marches to the beat of his own drum and makes sure you do too ;) When he wants cuddles, he cuddles (tucking into your armpit or against your rump 😹 or feet). When he wants attention, he will stare you down until he gets it. And sometimes he just wants to do his own thing – so he does. He has an admirable quiet confidence. DOLCE - 9 MONTHS - "LITTLE MISS SWEET AS A COOKIE" Among this group, “Queen of Cozy” is a hard won title, but Dolce’s got it. She’s the first one to come to bed, a champion sleeper, expert cuddler and lap warmer 💗 GRAYSON - 5 MONTHS - "LITTLE MISS MAKES YOU WORK FOR IT" Grayson chose self care and said “no thanks” to our photo shoot. She’s a shy gal who takes time to trust, but once you’re in, she’s a sweetheart (and has been coming out of her shell more and more!) She gives kisses and licks and is a gentle presence – unless you’re a flying bug, then let the games begin! She loves her big brother from another mother, Kitty 😻 LEON - 5 MONTHS - "MISTR ZOOMIES" Rascally rabbit, Leon loves to cuddle and nibble. He’s a speed demon who zoomies and loves to roughhouse his siblings. Typical youngest sibling, he cries for his way ;) Please email animalarmyla@gmail.com for more info. Thank mew!
