The purple banner at the top of this website lists more information about each litter of kittens/individual cats.
Our specialty is bottle babies and taming down feral kittens when their mothers are found dead, they longer return for their kittens, or when the kittens are found starving or on their own.
We are local to Ramona, have lived in the community for 20-plus years and support local businesses. We appreciate our supporters!
AVAILABLE as of 9-28-24:
CUDDLY CUTIES:
AVAILABLE: 2 siblings, Crash and Smash, gray tabby female and black male. Crash used to cry without her sibling, but now that she's older would be ok on her own (although she would love a home with her brother). Both are fixed.
AVAILABLE: Kimchi is still available from our spicy seasonings litter! Taco and Ginger have been adopted!
See their page for more info! All are fixed.
AVAILABLE: Zion and Loki, a pair of black and white brothers, little "mini moos." Already neutered, they must be adopted together.
These two kittens are pretty much perfect--they are playful,
contented little purr machines who will only be adopted
to an indoor home planning on spoiling them forever.
See their page for more info!
AVAILABLE: Dumpster Duo: A longhair calico female and a shorthair orange male were found at the bottom of a dumpster. They are now healthy and fixed, and eager for a new home. See their page for more info!
AVAILABLE: Buttercup is a lovely petite little tabby and white girl, rescued when she literally fell out of a truck onto Highway 67 at just a few weeks old! Indoor only, no exceptions, with a home promising forever cuddles for this little one! More information available soon.
COMING SOON:
We have kittens not yet old enough to go to new homes, and a waiting list of little ones needing homes. Their information will be posted when they are available--we really must rehome some of our current residents before we can take on any more.
Among the kittens we have waiting in the wings are four sight-impaired siblings. Each kitten from the litter has something different going on with their eyes--but none are in pain and they have no health issues otherwise. They are super affectionate little love bugs! They have been spayed/neutered , and we are hopeful the local cat loving community will step up for these very sweet, deserving kittens. They will be adopted in pairs to indoor homes only.
COMPANION CATS:
Margo is a 4-year-old calico female (spayed). She should be the only cat, unless she has a kitty roommate who will totally leave her alone--and is otherwise low-maintenance. Very sweet gal, affectionate but not underfoot. If she has to live with dominant cats, she simply quits eating, so we are being extra cautious on this point. She doesn't care about dogs.
Please click on her name at the banner at the top of this site for more information.
COMMUNITY CATS:
We do not have any community cats available at this time. When we do have them available, act fast, as they are usually adopted very quickly! We are very careful about our barn cat adoptions, as we work very hard to set both the cats and the adopters up for a lifetime of success!
CHALLENGING CATS:
Louise is ready for adoption, but she will be quite the challenge! Totally worth it for a dedicated owner who likes to problem-solve. To learn why, click on "Challenging Cats" on the banner!
Other adoptable animals:
We have two bunnies available! And they are CUTE! Both are un-neutered males, so only one per home and no breeding. They can go to the same home, but they must be kept separately. They have always been kept as outdoor bunnies. Low adoption fee. Looking for homes to love these very cute bunnies!
MORE INFO:
We do not always have room for more kittens, and we appreciate your understanding.
We do try to always make room for newborn orphans. If we are unable to take your kittens/cats, we can suggest organizations with good reputations and a long track record--not sellers, flippers or hoarders posing as rescues.
We sometimes have to stop taking in new babies to take care of the conditions our kittens arrive with, rather than end up with everyone sick. We often receive sickly kittens from terrible situations--dumped, abandoned, forgotten, without their moms, attacked by dogs (and sometimes people), incorrectly fed or medicated, sometimes with wounds. They can have upper respiratory illness, internal parasites, ringworm--and worse.
We are not set up for adult cats, although we take mothers with the litters when we can, a few adults when we have space, and we take any of our own adoptables back if needed.
Letting our cats go as outdoor hunters is something we take very seriously; we usually only let our felines go as barn cats only if they are too feral to be tamed down, obviously prefer outdoor life over indoor, or in rare cases, have litter box issues that make them unsuitable for indoor life.
We require a safe shelter from predators for these cats, as well as caretakers who will provide food, water, and attention to their charges. ALL our barn cats are fixed, vaccinated, dewormed and flea-free. Our same adoption application and fee apply.
Happy to discuss the acclimation process with serious adopters. Call us at 1 (760) 986-4617 if you think a couple of barn cats or kittens might work for you!
Our goal is to get these kittens and cats adopted! We have been rescuing in Ramona for more than 20 years and have a well-established, trusted reputation with hundreds of happy adopters. For the safety of our kittens, visitation by appointment only--Thank You for understanding!
