Cauldron – 3.5 months

Cauldron, is an affectionate 7-month-old sleek black adolescent cat, and ready to charm his way into a very special forever home. Diagnosed with chronic rhinitis (non-contagious to other pets) requiring daily medication, this “tiny black panther” doesn’t let the sniffles slow him down. He’s a spunky, outgoing, high-energy boy who fills every day with joyful zoomies, carries his toys around, loves watching and swatting at “bird TV,” snuggles with purrs and kneading, and even snores adorably while sunbathing. Having battled a severe respiratory virus as a tiny baby, Cauldron matured into a confident cat SO full of LIFE, thriving with children, dogs, and other cats, and being reliably litterbox trained. He promises to bring a unique blend of playful energy and enjoyable companionship to a family prepared to manage his chronic condition.

Photographer/cat lover’s note: what a delight to photograph Cauldron a second time! He is truly a joy to work with. If you are AT ALL interested in him, definitely reach out to the great folks at All Paws Rescue for more information about his medical needs. He will be well worth the extra attention!!

Magdalena showed up heavily pregnant, and had 6 kittens just a couple of days later. She worked hard raising all her babies, did an amazing job, and now it’s her turn to find a new loving home.

Magdalena loves to be patted, and is very chatty when she wants attention. Now that her babies are all big and adopted she has been very laid back, spending most of her time looking out the windows at birds and squirrels. She loves cardboard scratchers and playing in tunnels. She isn’t thrilled about being picked up, but does tolerate it. She loves wet food, and is generally tolerant of other cats and dogs. She is accustomed to being crated, good with children (they might not want to pick her up), rides well in a car, and is litterbox trained.

She was found as a stray near Honey Lee Ranch and, although she had recently given birth, her puppies were never found. It’s clear that she has raised several litters, and now she has the chance to live her own life. Honey Lee is incredibly sweet and loves her people. She is crate trained, house trained, and gets along well with children and other dogs. She’s also good in a car, making her a wonderful companion for any family looking for a loving and loyal addition to their home.

Theodore is a 9-year-old, 85 lb mastiff mix who is crate trained, good in a car, good with dogs, leash trained, good with children, and good with cats despite having cat allergies. He became famous through a heartwarming video of him in a shelter, where a small puppy climbed all over his head, leading to his rescue from euthanasia.

Theodore is a big, deaf boy who loves napping, physical affection, snacks, and chasing balls. He spends most of his days snoozing with his tongue out and is unbothered by most things due to his deafness, making him a chill guest. He enjoys the company of other animals but requires supervision as he can miss cues and be more sensitive. Despite missing some teeth, he eagerly munches on treats and will go anywhere for them. His kennel is his safe space, and he will walk himself in there when motioned. Theodore had two mast cell tumors removed, and while recurrence is likely, he takes Benadryl for allergies, which helps prevent growths. Theodore has so much life and love to give and deserves the perfect home. Meeting him will make you fall in love with this sweet boy.
