Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Jazmine is 14 years old, and I adopted her from the shelter when she was about 2 years old. She is slow to warm, but not aggressive when approached. She loves to get pets and love, but not all the time. She will approach people when she wants to be pet. She loves children and has no problem with other cats, or dogs. She likes to sit on her perch and observe. She is very sweet but is mildly stressed out by the other cat she lives with, and has licked off some fur on her tummy and leg, but it will grow back. She is not bonded to the other cat, but they have lived together for 12 years. I am moving and my partner is highly allergic to cats, so she cannot stay in the house. Jazzy has been an indoor only cat since I’ve had her, but she enjoys some leisure time sniffing outside if offered. She was just given the all clear by her vet, and is a healthy girl. She deserves to be snuggled and spoiled for the rest of her life.

Story

Margot is super cuddly, friendly and funny! She is great with other cats and children- we have not seen her around dogs but I figure she would be fine with them as well. She is very calm and docile. I would say she’s more of a homebody. We are relocating and our new place doesn’t allow pets. Let us know if you’re interested! She has an appointment to be spayed on April 17th!

Good with kids, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Acquired from SPCA in late 2023, Bella is 1.5 years old. The photo is of Bella at age 3 months. She has had a female companion all the while, until now. Bella is playful, affectionate, and relatively unafraid of strangers. She never has been in the company of a dog, but she and the local squirrels get along okay. After her first month inside, Bella has been doing all her duties outside; there never has been an in-house accident. Her diet has been some canned food once a day, with kibble available all the time. I am moving away to a cat-unfriendly environment, and want my friend Bella to be relocated with folks who care, because she deserves it. Bella ideally would have a home with a pet door to a fenced yard. Thanks Ted Muller 15 Jerae Court, Sacramento CA 95833 (xxx) xxx-xxxx

Story

She is a sweet, very shy girl that would do best in a quiet home & as an only cat. She loves to get butt scratches and will immediately start purring and making biscuits. Fixed & up to date on vaccines with no medical issues. Last seen by vet with lab work done in February 2025. I took her in from a less than ideal living situation, but she is not acclimating well in our home with our current animals.

Kyra

American Shorthair

Female, 9 mos

Details

Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Kyra and her brother were saved from a harsh life under a deck in sweltering 109-degree heat. While Kyra eagerly approached us, her brother Mavis was too timid and scared to emerge. With the homeowners' consent, we carefully unscrewed the deck to ensure Mavis's safe rescue. Kyra is an adventurous and affectionate cat who thrives on interaction, while Mavis, though shy, blossoms in her presence. We believe that adopting them together would provide the best environment for both, as Mavis gains confidence with Kyra by his side. Don't miss the chance to welcome this charming pair into your home.

Story

Jack came to us as a kitten from a colony near our home that we TNR'd. After seeing how friendly he was, we kept him and decided to help him find a new home. Jack is 7 months and is very energetic, fearless, and incredibly sweet. He comes up to you when he wants pets and likes to be held but will leave once he is ready to play again. Jack lives with both our cats and has been socialized with friends and family. He is potty trained and is used to getting his nails cut and bathed (although he's still getting used to the water). We are hoping to find him a home where he will have friends to play with and lots of love and attention.

Story

Bug the cat is around 9 months old. I adopted him a couple of months ago from the shelter. He is a sweet and curious cat, who is very friendly with people and other animals. He loves to play and explore, however he can be a little bit mischievous too. I love him so much, but unfortunately due to a personal issue between my roommates, I can’t keep him. I work and go to school full-time and I feel that he needs more attention and time than I am able to give him. He is a great cat, but needs an owner who can be home with him often, because he can get into a lot of trouble when left alone.

Story

I’m broken hearted to say I have to find a new home for my baby boy. He is the cutest doofiest little guy. He loves giving nose and hand licks. He also loves giving little live chomps on the nose. He LOVES boiled chicken and the outside. He hates if you invade his space, he will only accept love if he initiates it. He has a special Snuggie that he LOVES to sleep on. I have a month supply of food, two cat trees, a stainless steel litter box for free if you’re able to take him. Please please please, I do not want him to go to a shelter. Thank you.
