Story
This is our sweet kitty, Boots. She was our family cat but as all my kids have moved out of the home and I am frequently traveling, she is not getting the love and attention she deserves. She is a senior cat, but has a lot of energy. She often still runs around and plays. She loves to be cuddled and always wants to sleep on your lap. She is in great health and has never had any health issues. She is fixed and house trained and has always been an inside cat. She is nervous around kids but loves them when she gets to know them. She has never been around dogs but grew up with another cat before that cat passed away a few years ago. We just really want to find her a home where she can be loved the way she deserves to be.

Story
My siblings and I were born in a Bank of America parking lot. Our mom thought it would be a good place to keep us until we started crawling out of the bushes and having close calls with cars. Some nice ladies trapped us and our mom and had us all fixed up. I am a big fan of climbing to the top of the cat tree and love when my foster mom tells me how handsome I am and brushes my fur. I carry my toy mouse in my little mouth all while chirping. I am not a believer in personal space so I would need a person who needs a supurrvisor. I am endless energy and can get caught up in all kinds of crazy antics. I love my humans and am comfortable around cats, kittens and dogs. I am very young so I would need to have another bouncy and playful kitten in the house. I would love to be adopted with one of my siblings. If you would like more information about me please go to our website at www.southerncountiesrescue.org and complete our online application.

Angus is a fun, sweet, energetic and vibrant kitten who craves snuggle time and loves the attention from anyone who will give it to him. This little orange guy is an enthusiastic explorer around the house and eagerly plays with everybody who enters the room. Angus really likes to climb the cat tree and show everyone how cute he really is. He came from a big litter of kittens and he was the largest of the pack. Angus will purr and nuzzle from the moment you pick him up. Angus is great with other cats and will be an amazing companion!!!

Story
Pampered Pair Max and Katie are 13-year-old littermates, and a bonded pair. They have always been together and need to stay together in a new forever home. This pair were the pampered pets of a longtime Laguna Woods resident who has had to move into memory care. Max is darker and has tabby stripes; Katie is more tortie with some warm brown in her soft fur. Both have large greenish eyes. Vet-checked and current on shots, Max and Katie have been through a lot of changes, and depend on each other. They cuddle together and groom each other. Katie is more shy, and in stressful situations it seems to calm her to have Max nearby. Max is outgoing, and both are friendly. They do like petting and grooming attention from people. Both will roll over for a nice tummy rub. Max and Katie are nice laid-back cats who don't get into mischief. They're not interested in jumping on things. They both love their catnip scratcher boxes. Katie can be a talker and she often chatters to herself or to her foster. They seem content to hang out, relax, and nap, which makes them easy pets to care for and love. To meet Max and Katie, call/text Gina Hall at 949-330-0892.

Story
BLACK BEAUTY Josie is a 3-year-old cat who needs a new home. She's a large girl with gleaming black fur and bright shiny eyes. Josie is almost all black with some white under her chin. Vet-checked and current on shots, Josie is healthy although she was fed a bit too many treats before and is currently trying to lose some weight with her foster's help. Josie's favorite human passed away, so she's been through a stressful time. She's a little shy but she's a laid-back, adaptable cat and she has settled in quickly with her foster. She welcomes pets, and enjoys brushing attention. She enjoys play time too. Josie was a cuddler and a lap cat with her previous owner, so in time she might be again. To meet this sweet girl, contact Carolyn Maxwell, 949-742-0066 or maxwell.carolyn1@gmail.com .

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meko is a sweet boy who is shy at first and needs some time to warm up. If there’s a lot going on, he will find a quiet spot away from the action to catch some shut eye.  He has a luxuriously soft black coat, with a small white patch on his chest. He gets along with other friendly cats & dogs, but would do best in a quieter home.  Meko is very food motivated and will be looking out for mealtimes, but he won’t yell at you like some other cats do if you’re a couple minutes late. He might start eating out of the can though if you don’t spoon out the wet food fast enough. He’s a gentle kitty and would love a quiet and cozy home of his own.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. MINI PANTHER ALERT! This is Miss Mousse and she is the shyest of the  French Sweeties litter but she is the most tender and loving little girl ever. She absolutely stressed out and will hide if you chase her, but for the worthy special few who sit patiently near her with a soft fluffy blanket, you will be greatly rewarded with lap naps, a hefty dose of purring, some air biscuits, a proper display of all of her black velvety toe beans and, if you are lucky, very lucky, you will be delighted to see the piece de resistance, the ever elusive, peek of her pretty pink tongue! She needs a quiet home, sheltered from loud people who feel the need to chase her or pick her up but rather the one who knows with trust the joys of love from a more discerning, refined, reserved kitten.  Apply www.Dreamar.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 25, 2024, 1:39 pm
