Story
Andy’s owner developed dementia and was brought to California to live in a facility while Andy was left behind. Andy has been in foster for almost two years. He has been adopted out three times and each time he has been returned. He’s at least 12 years old. Due to his dental and kidney health the vet thinks he could be older. We don’t know for sure how old he is. He had a lot of dental work done. A wet food diet is required for kidney health. He has problems using the litter box. He wears a diaper for spraying issues. Andy should have an experienced adopter. He is front paw declawed. Someone who is retired or works from home would be best. He gets along with some cats. He gets along with low energy dogs. Andy was an only pet in his old home. It is not a requirement for his new home, but he would prefer it. If you think you can give Andy the care that he needs, please reach out. He will repay you with all the love he has. He loves to cuddle and give kisses. He is worth the work.

Story
Frank is anxious at first, but once he’s comfortable he’s a very loving guy. He’s sweet and talkative, especially when food’s involved. He loves chicken, tuna and to swipe at milk or cheese on top of pizza left unattended. He does great with our female kitty but not with our other male. He doesn’t mind our dogs but it is evident that large dogs also stress him out. Because of his fighting with our male cat we know he will ideally be best as an only child in a quiet home, however he is fine with another female cat. Please feel free to message me directly with any questions.

Story
Jack was just a tiny ball of fur when he was discovered in the woods, beneath some overgrowth. He was unreachable. His soft mews barely pierced the stillness, but they carried enough desperation to lead myself and his finder to his side. Alone and frail, with leaves tangled in his fur and eyes wide with fear, Jack seemed as though he had been waiting for someone to find him. We were not what he was expecting though and so he remained out of reach. After some time I was able to get him to come close enough to scoop him up, and Jack nuzzled in close, as if he knew he no longer needed to be scared. Jack is a 7 month old shy kitten who is still learning to trust the world around him. While he may be reserved at first, with patience and kindness, his sweet personality begins to shine. He loves finding quiet, cozy spots to feel safe, often curling up where he can watch his surroundings. Once Jack feels comfortable, he will reward you with soft purrs and affection.

Story
Molly is the sweetest cat I have ever owned. Unfortunately my boyfriend which whom I am moving in with, his Dog is not good to her. She is constantly chased and never gets attention when he is here. Molly loves a lap to sit on and give you purrs as long as you’ll have her. She also enjoys sleeping next to you at night. She is quite petite.. about 6 lbs and will be 2 on June 9th. I am moving March 1 and would like to try to re-home her before then. I have everything she needs. Cat tower, beds, automatic feeder that is already set up, litter boxes with mat for catching litter,water fountain, scratcher and brushes.

Story
When we originally took Faustine, we imagined it would only be a month or two and she would be back with her original owner. Now, the original owner has surrendered her to us and will no longer take her. She refuses to get along with any of the other pets and we can no longer afford to keep her financially. Loving once she gets to know you, clingy, vocal. She does have a history of UTI's and aggression toward other animals, but those are her only behavioral issues we've observed.
