Story
Nico was given to me by a friend at a slower time in my life but unfortunately a lot has changed since. She is a super sweet cat who loves attention and cuddles. She is not even a year old yet so she still has lots of energy to play and explore. She loves the outdoors and roaming around the yard and we never had any issues of her running away. She does great with her litter box and is not too picky with food. She just needs someone to give her the attention she deserves.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Give our cats & kittens a loving, forever home, and let them put a smile on your face!     Malina is a gentle, mellow young tortoiseshell with striking butterscotch and black “catwalk camouflage” and the sweetest, soulful dark round eyes. She enjoys the company of other cats, but cherishes quiet time curled up on a cat tree. Naturally shy and cautious, Malina warms up with patience and enjoys gentle petting. She’ll often follow you, reaching out for more attention. She’s happiest being near you rather than on your lap, and shows affection with soft purrs, quiet morning greetings, and gentle love blinks. Malina will need a patient and quiet home where there is gentle handling, experience, and kindness.  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.March 12, 2026, 12:10 am

Story
Maya is a shy girl, about 3 years old, who is often hiding away in little corners until everything is calm and still. She loves to come out in the evening after my son has gone to bed and sits on my lap to make biscuits, find pets, and get some love. During the day while I'm working she does come out and adorably puts her front paws up on my chair arm and gently touches my arm so that I'll put my hand down and pet her. Maya is timid about my 6 year old son (understandably). She will tolerate being around him but does not allow him to get close or to pet her. She's never hurt him or acted upset, but just runs away and he's familiar with that pattern. Since my move in March, she will not pee in her litter. I have tried many solutions and she was treated at the vets office for any urinary issues. It seems to be more behavioral now, and I can't have that in my apartment. I'm so sad about this but would love to find her a home with caring people who can help her get to back to the box
