Story
Meet Whiskey! He came up to me and my husband during a rainy day over a month ago. We’ve been taking care of him in the meantime. He was such a love ball from the beginning and loves humans. He likes to cuddle, play and chill. He is very sociable and likes attention and to be around people. We found out through NextDoor App that someone had abandoned him. Unfortunately, he is not hypoallergenic which is why we cannot keep him. We have a hypoallergenic cat whom he doesn’t get along with as well. He really deserves a good loving home! His personality completely wins you over. Update: I took him to the vet and he has all his shots just hadn’t been neutered.

Story
Hello, my name is Samuel Jackson. I am a two year old black cat with a white bow tie. My humans picked me up from an animal shelter in the Bahamas when I was six months old. Since then I lived as an indoor cat with them in San Francisco. My favourite things in the world are to cuddle and play. I am very curious and full of energy! I will follow you all around the house. Wherever you are, I want to be, too. Then my humans had a baby. Sadly I can't help myself but always want to play with the infant. That's why my humans made the difficult decision to find me a new home even though they love me very much. The ideal new family for me would ideally either have an older kid that wants to play with me every day or adults who can spend time with me so I can be my full energetic self. I look forward to meeting you soon, Samuel Jackson P.S. A note from my owners: the adoption fee is there to ensure only serious adopters would inquire.

Story
Pet belonged to a friend who passed away. I have looked after Lizzie for a few months- but unfortunately, my children are very allergic to cats and I must rehome her. Lizzie is probably at least 10 years old? She is a very gentle, completely indoor cat and loves all humans. No medical issues according to her owner. Vaccinations last done 2021 or 2022 in Walnut Creek.

Sassy is an amazing, sweet, loving kitty. She is more like a lap dog than a kitty. She is very well behaved and has always been the perfect little kitty.

Story
We adopted Kirk in 2016. He was so small and, when we asked about his droopy eyes, we found out he was deaf. Apparently, most white cats with blue eyes are deaf. We instantly knew we wanted to adopt him! He is such a funny cat and loves finding hiding places where he will sleep (coma-like) for hours. When you wiggle your fingers, he will come to you. We named him Kirk after a character on Gilmore Girls because he is quirky and goofy. He loves exploring and meeting new people. He also loves tall places and likes to scratch, so a cat tree is a must. He can be very vocal, even though he is deaf, which is pretty funny! We are growing our family and, sadly, a two bedroom in the city is starting to feel way too small for us all. :( However, it is important to us that he finds a good home where he is well loved!!!
