Story
Hi hi hi! My name is Lucy and I'm a 5 month old arabian mau recently rescued all the way from Kuwait! I travelled so far to find my forever home! I am a spunky, high energy girl that will keep you laughing with my mischievous antics! I love to climb up on high places including perching right on your shoulder. I do like to play and dig in the dirt of plants so you may want to keep any plant friends out of my reach. I enjoy watching the birds from the window, racing around the house, and snuggling with my favorite humans. My energy level is similar to that of a sphynx or a bengal so be sure you're up to a fun kitten. I would do best in a home as the only kitty OR with another cat with the same energy level as me I am spayed, microchipped, vaccinated with my FVRCP and Rabies, and dewormed. I am FIV/Felv negative and have been tested negative for fecal parasites. You can apply directly at (www.friendsforliferescuenetwork.com/adopt-la) Please ensure the link includes the "-la" or there will be an error page. I am currently fostered in Studio City, CA and available as a "foster to adopt" or straight adoption. Adopters may be within 2 hours of the foster home.

Story
Meet Pearl, an adorable gray and cream, Striped Tabby DSH with green eyes and a sweet, gentle disposition. We don't know her exact breed, on account of her being rescued from the streets, but she does possess many hallmarks of an Egyptian Mau. This cutie has been raised with her three, female litter mates plus another litter of six males. They all enjoy playing and wrestling together. Pearl's adoption will include her: * Spay surgery, * De-worming, * FVRCP vaccinations, * Rabies vaccination (if old enough), * Combo-test (for FIV/FeLV = negative), * Flea and mite treatment (with Revolution), * and Micro chipping! ~ $150. adoption fee, adoption contract and home check apply / $250 for a pair ~ * Please only contact us if you'll be making Pearl a permanent member of your household and will be keeping her safe indoors. ** We do not adopt out kittens or cats where they will be the only pet at home. Kittens rely on each other for emotional support and continued social and behavioral development. For example: another kitten or cat will teach them when they're playing too rough or biting too hard. Plus, cats and kittens get very lonely when you're not at home! Having a playmate will keep them happier, healthier and out of trouble. **We offer a discount when adopting a pair! *** You can also find all our adoptables on our Facebook page: "Save The Leadwell Kitties" (including their rescue story, photos and video updates). Interested in becoming a much-needed foster? Please send us a message with your best contact info, the type of home environment you can provide and, most-importantly, the City in which you live. Thanks!

Story
Zeddie is super sweet and cuddly… he just doesn’t know he is until he is falling asleep in your arms. He is however learning more about himself everyday. Somewhat of a loner he gets along with other cats but prefers to keep to himself so he’s perfect for someone who really just wants one cat and wants to get a kitten. His fur is super soft and he has beautiful big eyes. He would be a lovely companion for an adult or child of any age. If you’d like to meet Zeddie face to fur call Karen at 661-317-2253

Tangee is extra special . Why? Because she is a survivor. While others around her were falling victim to the horrifying virus that is Panleuk , she and two others stayed strong and lived. She is also special because she is a female orange tabby and only 20% are female. She was meant to survive for some reason perhaps that reason is you. If you would like to meet this special little girl face to fur call Karen at 661-317-2253 Personality traits Friendly, Affectionate, Playful, Smart, Brave, Curious, Funny, Loves kisses, Athletic

Poor Buddy! He is soooo lonely! The only survivor from his litter he was saved by the kindness of a man who found him alone and hungry on a new piece of property he is renovating. He brought him in the house on the property fed and watered him and allowed him to live there but the man doesn’t live there . And although he is there quite often poor buddy ends up alone the majority of his he time. The man wants to find him a loving family that will shower this sweet handsome playful boy with all the love and attention he truly deserves! Maybe that family could be yours? If you would like to meet this young Prince locked away in a lonely home and see if he could be a fit for your family please call Karen at 661-317-2253 He’s waiting for you! Personality traits Friendly, Playful, Smart, Curious, Brave, Funny
