Featured Cats: Marcie & Snoopy
Every day with this pair will have you doing a happy dance!
Snoopy is a major purr machine who loves his sister Marcie to the moon and back! Snoopy wasted no time in coming out of his shell and exploring the world around him. His adventurous spirit knows no bounds, and he's always on the lookout for his next exciting adventure. Whether he's darting around the room chasing after toys or zooming through tunnels, Snoopy's energy is boundless and infectious. He shares a special bond with his sister, and they make quite the dynamic duo.
Marcie is the perfect addition to any home seeking a companion with a unique personality and an abundance of love to give. Once she settles in and feels comfortable with her humans, Marcie transforms into the ultimate cuddle bug. There's nothing she loves more than snuggling up on a warm lap and enjoying some quality bonding time. She's also a talkative purr machine. This adventurous feline has a curious spirit that keeps her constantly exploring her environment. From investigating nooks and crannies to chasing after toys, Marcie's zest for life is infectious. And when it comes to treats, she's all ears! Once she's familiar with her surroundings, Marcie becomes incredibly treat-motivated, making her a joy to train and spoil.
Whether they're embarking on adventures together or simply enjoying each other's company, their sibling bond is truly heartwarming to witness. Talk to our adoption counselors about doubling the love in your life by filling out an application TODAY!
Cats at The Dancing Cat — Meet in Person
Some of our cats are in residence at The Dancing Cat, our cat adoption lounge. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an adoption application to start this process.
Cats in Foster Homes
Some of our cats current reside in loving foster homes. If you are interested in adopting any of these cats, please fill out an adoption application to start this process. Some can be met in person and others via zoom.
Kittens
Kittens need to be paired with another kitten to aid in socialization. Fill out an adoption application to meet these and other kittens we have in our foster homes.
All kittens 5 months or younger must be adopted with a buddy. The buddy can be a litter-mate, or they can be adopted into a home with another young kitten or cat. For information about why we adopt in pairs, read here about single kitten syndrome.
FIV+ Cats
From time to time we host cats that have tested positive for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), which causes a weakening of a cat’s immune system. Most cats that have FIV live a long, normal lives, both in quality and longevity. They just need to be monitored for infections and dental issues.
The virus is not transmissible to other cats except through deep bite wounds, blood, or inherited from their mother. FIV+ cats can live in multi-cat household without resident cats contracting the virus. As their immune system can be sensitive, their health (infections and dental issues) should be monitored a little more closely than most non-FIV cats.
We are following policies set by national animal rescue organizations and accredited veterinary medicine universities. For more information, refer to the UC Davis FIV page and the Best Friends FIV page.
