Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Grace has been apart of our family since she was weaned from her mom 7 years ago. A friend of a friend rescued a feral cat and we adopted 2 of the kittens. They have lived happily together until about a year ago. The big orange boy is bullying poor little Grace. Her stress has caused throwing up from eating too fast to get away from him and she has been peeing outside the boxes—that is until she started living in the bathroom. With her own private space she is back to her sweet self and no throw-up or accidents. She does not deserve to live in a tiny bathroom with no window to look out of and no one to jump on to say hi to when she wants attention. She is really easy to live with. She likes to make biscuits on your belly before she decides to climb up and cuddle with you. She is tiny, only 4.5-5 lbs. All tests in the past few months have come back all healthy.

Story

My wife and I acquired our cats in 2015. They were kittens. Brother and sister. They gray cat is PUFF (male). He is 10 years old. Indoor cat, never been outside or interacted with other pets. When visitors come by, he will run and hide. Puff will come out later to "check the scene". I will say he is loving and playful even at the age of 10. July 2022, my wife of 26 yrs passed away from a Heart Attack. She worked from home and the cats were with her daily. I on the other hand work outside of the home and my schedule is very very busy. I live in Mission Viejo and work in Downtown LA. It has become very difficult to care for him because I am always traveling for work and when I am here I leave early in the a.m. and get home late. :( What I am looking for is a nice clean loving home for him. A place where they can roam around with his sister and not feel caged. A home who doesn't mind giving them alot of attention.

Story

Meet Stanley! He was found on the 5 freeway in Orange County and ended up at the shelter for two long months. Stanley was one of their longest residents and found himself on the euthanasia list with a short deadline. I bailed him out of jail and took him home to let him decompress. His personality immediately emerged as loving, playful and well behaved. He is so thankful to be saved and it shows. Stanley loves to play with our kids and other cats. He also loves our 70 lb German shepherd. Stanley loves to talk and ask for pets. He enjoys lounging at the window in the sun and snuggling on his blankie. He is soon learning to be a lap cat but isn’t quite there yet. Although he loves all the pets. Stanley would be amazing in any home that wants a new friend and to give him a chance. He’s survived death twice and he deserves to live the rest of his 9 lives happily ever after.

Story

Jerry is a purebred American shorthair cat that we purchased from a breeder, "Mila's Cats" look them up. He is four years old. Jerry is a very special cat, first off He is gorgeous! Everyone who sees him says "oh my God your cat is gorgeous". He has very unique markings. The Cheshire cat was modeled after the American short hair. Jerry is highly intelligent, he'll let you know when he needs something. A very well behaved cat, he's trained not to get up on the tables and a quick clap of your hands and He'll jump down off anything you don't want him on. He is very playful, affectionate and friendly. Loves to be brushed and Pet, especially in his favorite locations. He is an indoor/outdoor cat. We would like to find him a home where he could still enjoy partially being outside (fenced yard) if possible. He doesn't jump over our 6 foot fence, Unfortunately I have developed an allergy to him. We will be particular about rehoming him to the right person/family.

Ebony

American Shorthair

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

In early September, a resident noticed a small black and white cat in the foliage and contacted the Cat Club. Coyotes are known to frequent the area, so that cat -- actually a kitten -- was quickly brought inside to safety. We never found out how the kitten came to be wandering alone outside. That kitten, Ebony, is about 6 months old now and as cute as can be. She was recently spayed, she's had her kitten shots, and she's a healthy, active tuxedo girl. Ebony's pretty too, with shiny black fur and bright white nose, chest, and feet. Ebony's very affectionate. She loves to purr away while she sits on her foster's lap and gets pets. Like all good kittens, Ebony also likes to play. She's a joy to watch with all her kitten energy! Ebony also likes watching the squirrels and birds out the windows. She might welcome living with another young cat who will play chase with her. Ebony is hoping for a forever home with all the love and attention a young cat needs. For more information about Ebony, contact Sally North at 818-326-9526.
