Quigley
exceptionally sweet as he will readily accept
human attention (until he decides to play the
“chase the hand” game). He is very curious
too. When any shenanigans start, Fred is always
first on scene to find out what is going on,
and then he gets caught up in the thick of it.
He plays well with other cats, so we think he
will adopt in a forever home either as a solo
kitty or with an FeLV+ buddy.
Peaches is a very active boy who loves to
run around and play. This handsome young
kitty loves to be petted. Peaches was found
abandoned at a school. Now he is happy to
have a warm place to sleep. Peaches is looking
for a forever home with someone who
can give him lots of attention and play time.
Purrrfect Companions
If you want a cat with a certain kind of
personality, you’re better off adopting an
adult. That kitten who is cute and snuggly
now may mature into a totally different kind
of cat! Cats who are teens or adults have lived
with our foster volunteers, so we can match
you up with the kind of cat you are looking
for. When you adopt, you save a life… and
in turn enrich your own.
Quigley is a bit of a goofball professor. He
is a sweet boy, intelligent and quick to learn,
who is unafraid of meeting new people and
making friends. He is talkative and will hold
a “conversation” for several minutes while he
purrs and gives loving headbutts. In the morning,
Quigley likes to cuddle and receive lots
of pets on his belly while he wakes up. His
favorite game is to chase his toy fox before
he clambers, climbs, and jumps atop his cat
tower to gaze out the window and catch a
snooze. In the evening, he likes to check on
all his people and make sure they are safe
and settled for the night. Another round of
fun playing after dinner, and then it’s for bed
to cuddle up with someone.
Lulu is a beautiful girl with a beautiful
personality to match. She is very sweet and
loves to be petted yet she also likes her independence.
She is the perfect kitty companion
whether you work from home or away from
home because she is not too needy and is
content to spend her time napping or watching
birds from a window. Lulu has a very
easy-going personality and would be fine
adopted into a single pet household or into
a home with an existing friendly cat. Come
meet this lovely girl to see first-hand what
a gem she is.
These two distinguished gentlemen, unfortunately,
lost their lifetime home in early
November when their guardian surrendered
them to the shelter (due to no fault of their
own). Rick is a complete love bug and will
melt your heart the minute you see him.
He craves attention from humans and starts
purring as soon as he spots a human coming
towards him (hopefully with a treat in
hand). He is a curious kitty who will make
the perfect companion for anyone. Carl is a
sweet, gentle soul and loves to be doted on.
He will reach his paw towards you to ask
for pets. He loves spending his time curled
up in the marshmallow bed for an afternoon
nap or by your side on the couch. Carl may
be shy at first, but it does not take him long
to open up and demand cuddles. He is also
patient when it comes to snack time or dinner
time. Rick and Carl would thrive in a
home with calm adults and children whom
they can keep the company whether that is
watching Netflix with you or simply curled
up on the couch while you read a book. They
may also adjust well in a home with a calm
cat-friendly dog. If you are looking for two
kitties to spend lazy afternoons with and to
snuggle with at night, then look no further
as these are your guys.
The “Fred Mertz” of our “I Love Lucy”
quartet is a member of four FeLV+ kittens that
came to Kitten Rescue from an LA County
shelter. He is certainly one striking gentleman!
His unique tuxedo markings make him
stand out in the crowd almost as much as
his quirky personality does. Fred can also be
