Hinata is a 4 year old diluted calico female cat. She is a calm, kind and loving girl. She is good with children. Good with male cats (takes time. Her favorite toy is spiral springs, balls and hanging door mice. She is not a picky eater. She eats twice a day breakfast at 7am, treats when we arrive home from work at 4pm, and dinner at 8-8:30. She loves to play with you and on her own. We are moving sooner than expected, unfortunately we are unable to bring her with us. She'll take some time to adjust but once she does she'll become your whole world.

Story
Looking to find a home for this sweet kitty I TNRd earlier this year. She's been living outside, but in the last 6 months, 3 cats have been chased under my house, and killed by dogs - I've taken her in, but I want to get this girl off the streets and into the cozy forever home she deserves! We call her Zorro and she's going to be 3 next year. She loves to chirp and meow, and loves when you talk with her! Like most kitties, it may take her some time to get used to you, but once she is comfortable, she loves belly rubs and to be pet! She loves attention from people and other cats - She's getting along great with the 8 other cats in our home! I've not seen her around children, but she seems to adapt quickly. She's spayed and had the first round of shots from her spay appointment. She's recently been given a dose of Cheristin flea treatment. Reach out if you're interested in meeting her, or have questions! 😊

Story
This is a listing for pair-bonded kittens, Chereka (gray, male) and Sehay (orange, female), each 10mo old. They must be adopted together. Very social! Food motivated and easily trainable. Loves the vet, being in the car, used to being on a harness. Baths, nail cutting, brushing goes smoothly, even if they aren't the biggest fans. They love cuddling all up on you and being near you always. They pee and poop outside the litter box and I can't handle it anymore. I think they need supervised outdoor time every day, or 2hr+ of play...per day...with you. 1hr of play with me isn't enough. Dry food makes them go outside the box. Chereka will eat Sehay's food and she will let him, so they either need supervision or separation at feeding time. They love being up high and will jump on top of your fridge, stovetop (I recommend removing your knobs when not in use). They're also trained to use an automatic litter box, and they come with all their necessary supplies. They can only eat wet food.

Story
Hello! This is Fig Newton (Fig for short). She is approx 3-5 years old. I adopted her from the shelter two years ago. Fig LOVES to cuddle and play. She is a dedicated work-from-home buddy and is not shy around strangers. She’s a great hunter with a bit of a feisty side. I am looking to rehome her because my small, quiet, studio apt is not best suited for her needs. Fig requires lots of love and attention, and would thrive in a home with other cats and experienced cat owners. Unfortunately due to the nature of my quiet home, Fig has been having aggressive behaviors that can sometimes be unpredictable. She is currently on a small dose of fluoxetine that she takes daily. And though that has significantly helped with the behaviors, I believe Fig needs more attention and play from a cat buddy to really help her flourish. She is a very affectionate cat and I could definitely picture her having a strong bond with a sibling.

🐾 Looking for a Loving Home for Two Very Special Siblings: Buffy & Xander 🐾 This is one of those posts I never imagined writing — but here we are, with a full heart and the hope of finding the perfect next chapter for two extraordinary cats. Meet Buffy and Xander, a bonded brother–sister duo, 6.5 years old, adopted together at the start of COVID from the mean streets of Brooklyn (via a saintly foster mom), and proudly relocated cross-country to San Francisco in 2021. They’ve been my family since day one. Buffy is the queen of the household. Sassy. Confident. Cuddly. Thrives on admiration and attention (as she should). Xander is her sweet, gentle brother. A little shy, deeply loving, and happily deferential to his sister’s royal authority. Together, they are: Cozy couch potatoes who love cuddling (and occasional lap time) Playful zoomie enthusiasts when the mood strikes Masters of the gentle kneecap headbutt when you’re seated
