Purrrfect Companions
Kumquat Oroblanca and Cara Cara
Give one of these kitties a second chance
for a lifetime of love when you adopt a pet
without a partner.
Percy and Noodle are best buddies at the
Kitten Rescue Adoption Center where they
live. They would love to go to their new home
together or maybe with one of the many friends
they have made here.
Percy is a gallant knight out to protect, serve
and play with his best friend, Noodle, and all
kittens under his protection. Percy is stunning
in his brown, feathery-ticked coat. He loves
warm laps and to receive belly rubs. Percy
is the best kitten ever with his regal manner
and playful antics, not to mention his epic
cuddling. Percy needs to have another cat or
kitten to protect, so he can only be adopted
with another kitten.
Noodle is a sweet little nutcase who loves to
snuggle. He is playful with kitties and people.
He is smart enough to entertain himself and
is welcoming to other kitties who want to
play as well. He is very tolerant of brushing
and nail trims. Noodle will be a stunning big
kitty when he grows up. But right now, he
is simply adorable. Noodle must be adopted
with another kitty -- either one existing in the
home already or one you adopt with him. His
best friend is Percy, but he has many friends
at the Adoption Center.
Ashton and Daphne are a beautiful brother/
sister pair who are shy and need a quiet, calm
home. Ashton loves head scratches and hanging
out with you. Once he is comfortable in
your presence, he will lounge on the floor and
stretch out his entire body. His favorite place
is perched high in a cat tree. If you want a
kitty with a silly personality, Ashton is the one.
Ashton loves playing with his more outgoing
sister, Daphne. He looks to his sister for
guidance, so he would be best adopted with
her so he could have her support. Daphne
also enjoys head scratches and will purr very
loudly in appreciation. If you are looking for
a super-sweet kitty, then Daphne is your girl.
She will give you sweet little kisses when you
pet her. She is the more outgoing of the two
and will provide direction for Ashton at times.
Daphne is very attached to her brother and
would love to be adopted with him.
Oroblanco, Cara Cara and Kumquat are our
sweet little “citrus” kittens. Due to their young
ages and energy levels, they each will need
a playful buddy to grow up with -- ideally
another kitten of similar disposition. It would
be great to adopt them in a pair or as a trio
if you don’t already have a fun-loving feline
friend for them. They could integrate with
other kittens and cats, or cat-friendly dogs
easily, though they haven’t met any dogs yet.
Oroblanco is a lovable, playful kitten who
knows how to balance high-energy playtime with
sweet, snuggly people time. He’s the big guy of
the family, but not dominant or aggressive. He’s
actually a bit more tentative than his siblings,
getting the lay of the land before jumping into
new things. Oroblanco is particularly affectionate
when held or cuddled. He loves to get right
in your face for nose boops and cheek rubs.
He is the most likely of the group to peel
off from playtime to climb on your lap for a
recharge. He enjoys a full-body scratch, lots
of long pets from head-to-toe and face rubs.
Cara Cara is a very playful high-energy
kitten who never gets tired of running and
pouncing around the room with her brothers.
Affectionate and sweet, she purrs to the touch
Percy
and is amenable to frequent breaks from romping
around if you scoop her up for hugs and
kisses. She loves people, approaches when
she sees you and enjoys patting your hands or
nuzzled exchanges. Cara Cara has not met a
toy she doesn’t love! Her favorites are plastic
springs, which bounce in all directions and
give her an exciting workout. She carries them
around the room in her mouth looking for the
perfect spot to drop and play.
Kumquat is an outgoing, energetic little
guy who is always ready to go when anyone
says it’s playtime! He’s a slight and slender
frame built for the tosses and turns his
siblings bring to him. On the interpersonal
side, Kumquat loves people and starts purring
immediately when you pet or hold him.
This is when the charming people-lover in
him comes out and he can turn his attention
to you. Kumquat is adventurous and loves to
discover new things. As an all-out physical
comic, he consistently delivers a hilarious
performance during his playtime.
These cats and kittens are available for adoption
through Kitten Rescue, one of the largest
cat rescue groups in Southern California. All
our kitties are spayed/neutered, microchipped,
tested for FeLV and FIV, dewormed and current
on their vaccinations. For additional information
and to see these or our other kittens and cats,
please check our website www.kittenrescue.org
or email us at mail@kittenrescue.org.
Your tax-deductible donations for the rescue
and care of our cats and kittens can be made

Veterans from front page
by Korea in the 1950s, and Vietnam during
the 1960s and early ‘70s. The Cold War with
the Soviet Union ended with the breakup of
the USSR, but hostilities continue between
NATO forces and Russia. Californians since
have answered the call to duty in Iraq, Kuwait,
Bosnia, Somalia and Afghanistan.
While Memorial Day is set aside in
late May to honor members of the Armed
Forces who’ve lost their lives in active service,
Veterans Day is all-encompassing and
celebrates the service of ordinary Americans
who are living and deceased. Sunday and
Monday, however, are largely intended to
thank living veterans for their personal sacrifices.
And it’s not just the veterans being
honored this year.
The Department of Defense reminds
Americans that November is National Veterans
and Military Families Month, too. Parents,
siblings, spouses and children have a special
duty that is easy to overlook despite the visible
presence of the Department of Defense
and U.S. Air Force in the South Bay. During
November and throughout the year, Americans
are encouraged to remember the burden and
hardship that spouses and children of activeduty
service people accept.
Military spouses often put a career on hold
to move to another installation or juggle family
obligations, according to the Pentagon.
“From settling their children in a new school
to helping their service member’s parents
navigate care when their loved one is far
from home – military families do what needs
to be done and never stop giving.”
Readers are asked to thank them this month
on social media and show appreciation in
other small ways. Surprise a local military
family with a meal or a friendly visit at their
door. Employers are encouraged to hire a
veteran, a service member transitioning to
civilian life, or a military spouse to lighten
the financial burdens they face.
“Our military families have made it their
mission to serve our nation; now it is our
turn to serve them, whenever and however
we can,” the Pentagon reminds all Americans.
“These actions - big and small - demonstrate
our appreciation.” •
