Story
Julian is a 3 yo kitty born September 16. He loves comfy little pillows and a cozy home that provides lots of little stimuli and things to get lost into as well as having many comfort spaces available to him. He may be getting older but his playfulness just gets even younger, he has not lost that young kitty energy and actually acts like a little baby still, forever a lil itty bitty baby

Story
These 3 black kittens were born on March 15th to a stray mother. We have taken the mom in and the babies were born inside. They are very friendly, social and energetic. They have started eating wet kitten food mixed with kitten formula. They all drink water from a bowl. They will use the litter box when placed in it but need some more training to use it independently. All 3 still have blue/grey eyes that may turn a different color. At this point, they look identical and I can't identify if they are male or female yet. If you are interested in adopting any of these cuties, they will remain with their mother a few more weeks until they are ready to go to their new home.

Story
Sigfreid is a very sweet cuddly, and playful boy. He goes feral for the feather toys and loves any toy you give him. He is such a gentle boy. He loves to curl up and cuddle on your lap, and never ceases to tell you how much he loves you. He’s on a strict wet food only diet, anything dry will cause bladder issues and send him to the emergency vet. We love our sweet boy, but doing this every month gets very pricey. We hope to find him a good home filled with lots of love and other pets to play with.

Story
Available for adoption is a Hollywood royalty couple...brother and sister duo, Bogey and Bacall*. Bogey is a handsome 19-month-old male black and white tuxedo with a bit of a mischievous personality. His favorite past time is pestering his sister, Bacall, which she doesn’t particularly enjoy. Therefore, they would need to be adopted separately. Bogey is a typical boy who loves to explore the house and hunt for lizards on the pool deck. His foster mom describes him as a super sweet cuddler and snuggler who loves to play and seek her attention. Bogey would be a great family cat, especially one with children who can keep him busy and entertained. Won’t you give this sweet boy a new home? Bogey's sister Bacall has since been adopted.

Meet adorable 3 1/2-month-old Crickett. She is a black and white short-haired cutie. Crickett is a very sweet girl who just loves attention from her foster family. She also loves playing with her many siblings. Two are still available for adoption, her brothers Aster and Forrest. We would love for her to be adopted with one of her siblings or her mother but is not a requirement. She gets along well with other cats and gentle well-behaved dogs.
