"Cali" Calico

My story

In the heart of Compton, California, amidst multiple chemical plant businesses, our dedicated team launched a heroic rescue operation to save a struggling colony of cats that had made the industrial zone their dangerous home in April 2024. Over a tense three-day period, our team methodically set traps throughout the area, driven by a relentless hope to rescue five feral adult cats, four, four-week-old kittens, and a fragile one-week-old newborn—the lone survivor of her litter. All were saved. "Cali" Calico was the momma to the newborn kitten. It was determined that Cali is very sweet and affectionate so she stayed indoors to be adopted in our rescue. Her first daughter, the newborn, is "Leia", who is also available for adoption! Shortly after Cali was rescued, she was placed with Leia to nurse, but unfortunately Cali was smarter than her foster and she escaped and became pregnant from the neighborhood cats. She had 6 kittens and some are still available for adoption through our rescue (Triscuit, Frito, Chenille, and Domino). Cali is a very patient cat, She likes to sleep most of the day, but she will happily accept pets and lickable "Churu" treats daily from her forever family.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt "Cali" Calico, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
