“TIGER LILY” IS THE PURR-FECT KITTEN AND SHE IS READY FOR A HOME!
SHE IS STILL WAITING FOR HER PURR-SON TO ADOPT HER!

It has been almost FOUR WEEKS since Tiger Lily and her brother, Tiger, arrived at The Montecito Pet Shop on the Mesa…they still need a home! Let’s not make them wait another day!

Some of us have a special attraction to those little brown tabby stripes…they are just hard to resist. And then set a pair of gem-like green eyes looking at you and well, that’s it for me! Melted in an instant.
Tiger Lily was taken in by a foster along with her mom and five siblings. When she learned that the group she was fostering for expected her to foot the bill for food and litter, she panicked! That’s a huge commitment of expenses to absorb. She reached out to RESQCATS and we were able to have the family transferred to us and took care of everything including food and litter.
Tiger Lily and Tiger don’t necessarily have to be adopted together, but it will be hard to separate them once you see them playing, snuggling and loving each other.
And we do for all the kitties, Tiger Lily has had a vet exam and is tested for Felv/FIV. She is also wormed, vaccinated, spayed and microchipped.
She can be adopted through RESQCATS at The Montecito Pet Shop on the Mesa at 2020 Cliff Drive in Santa Barbara. The number for the shop is (805)965-6780. Adoption hours are Monday through Saturday from 10-5 and Sunday from 10-3.
If possible, please make your adoption donation in cash or a check so we can put all those dollars towards the cats and not towards credit card fees.
PS Tiger is the one with the tiger collar.

Éclair is so darn cute and we just can’t get over her adorable markings. She is white with gray tabby spots all about…just really unique.
She was found along with her siblings when she was only four weeks old. She was on a ranch in Santa Ynez and lucky she hadn’t already been taken by a predator. Luckily, a young man was diligent about getting the kittens and she found a safe haven with a foster until she was ready to come to RESQCATS.
She’s not only pretty…but a sweetheart, too.

“IT WON’T TAKE LONG TO BE SMITTEN BY THIS ONE…HIS NAME IS “ARTHUR” AND HE IS READY TO GO HOME!H

“Arthur” is a kitten lover’s dream! He is a Russian Blue kitten that makes everyone at RESQCATS smile. He is fun, playful and super friendly. How did he get that way?
Well, he was turned into the Ojai Valley Humane Society at just four weeks of age along with four siblings. The staff there reached out as they did not have a foster at the time that could take on such a young litter and transition from formula to “real” food.
Arthur got lucky in that he ended up with one of our foster moms who absolutely spoiled him…and so he is going to expect that same thing from you! Spoil me, love me and I will love you forever.
He has been around the foster’s German Shepherd, who LOVES kittens. And he has been around her other cats AND her grandchildren. So this well-adjusted kitten won’t take long to be the new boss in your house!
Arthur has had a vet exam and is tested for Felv/FIV. He is also wormed, had his first vaccinations and is neutered and micro-chipped for you.
You can meet him at RESQCATS! Yes, we have a lot of kittens so we have opened our doors to doing some adoptions here at the sanctuary.
You can meet Weaver by contacting us on our website: www.RESQCATS.org. Or call (805)563-9424 and I will return your call promptly!

RUSSIAN BLUE KITTEN LOVERS…HERE’S YOUR GUY. HIS NAME IS “WEAVER” AND HE IS GUARANTEED TO BE YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND.

“Weaver” is the purrfect kitten…no kitting!!!
He was turned into the Ojai Valley Humane Society as just four weeks old and staff reached out to see if RESQCATS could help. You see, he still needed to be bottle fed and transitioned to canned food and finally to kibble. It’s a lot of work for a foster, but all of her time has paid off.
This little guy is bursting with personality. He is super friendly, in fact he doesn’t meet a stranger. He is playful and just loves people! He has also been around our foster’s German Shepherd so he knows dogs. And she had grandchildren so Weaver can handle little people too!
He is a handsome Russian Blue type kitten with hazel eyes. You are going to love him!
Weaver has had a vet exam and is tested for Felv/FIV. He is also wormed, had his first vaccinations and is neutered and micro-chipped for you.
You can meet him at RESQCATS! Yes, we have a lot of kittens so we have opened our doors to doing some adoptions here at the sanctuary.

BROWN TABBY LOVERS…”BENTLEY IS FOR YOU!”

It’s not often that you come across a litter in rescue that is as friendly as Bentley and his siblings, so you won’t want to miss out on this adorable brown tabby boy.
He was turned into Animal Control in Santa Maria and needed a place to go…they just didn’t have a foster that could handle seven at once…and we always like litters to stay together.
We had a wonderful lady who wanted to foster and she did a great job! Bentley is healthy and she describes him as a super friendly boy who loves a nap. He is curious and brave…he has even had time with dogs, older cats and younger children. He is a lap cat and a cuddler who also loves his kitten naps!
Bentley has had a vet exam and is tested for Felv/FIV. And he has been wormed, had his first two FVRCP vaccinations and neutered and microchipped.
You can meet this fella at RESQCATS! Yes, he is here and it is a rare opportunity to visit the sanctuary and see all that we do. Call (805)563-9424 and I will return you call immediately. You can also reach out through the website with an email: www.RESQCATS.org. Or personal message me through Messenger on Facebook: Jeffyne Telson or RESQCATS.

WHERE ARE ALL THESE BROWN TABBIES FROM!? WELL RESQCATS AIMS TO PLEASE SO HER YOU GO…MEET “FERRARI!”

Ferrari and his six siblings were turned into Santa Barbara County Animal Services and transferred to RESQCATS when SBCAS had no where for them to be fostered.
We found the perfect foster and she took care of them until it was time to come to RESQCATS.
Oh my, what an absolute wonderful little boy Ferrari is. Not only does he have looks, but he is quite the character. The word is that he has the loudest purr and is always the first to do so. He is curious and brave and very playful. But he also likes a lap and is quite the little cuddle muffin.
Ferrari has been around dogs, older cats and young children so we think he will adjust quickly in a new home. What more could you ask for? Well, maybe he can go home with a sibling if there is room at your place!
Ferrari has had a vet exam and is tested for Felv/FIV. And he has been wormed, had his first two FVRCP vaccinations and neutered and microchipped.

“BUGATTI”…ANOTHER BROWN TABBY THAT WILL STEAL YOUR HEART.

Bugatti is one of seven that came into RESQCATS foster care when there was no room at Santa Barbara County Animal Services. He went directly to a wonderful foster who spent three weeks caring for him and his siblings. He got so much attention and love and it certainly shows.
Bugatti has a purr that fills up the room. He is bold and brave, playful and fun and we just cannot say enough good things about him. You’ll just have to meet him! And! He has been around dogs, older cats and young children!

ADOPTED!!!

“RACER” IS GUARANTEED TO STEAL YOUR HEART. AND HE WOULD LOVE TO FIND A PERMANENT PLACE IN IT!
HE JUST ARRIVED AT THE MONTECITO PET SHOP ON THE MESA!

Racer is a soft gray tabby boy with a hint of golden beige on his ears. But what he has much more going for him is much more than just his looks. He has a sweet disposition and that is most likely due to the fact that his mother is a sweet stray that ended up at RESQCATS well before delivering her litter here at the sanctuary. It truly makes a difference when a kitten is born here…they know nothing but comfort and love. And he returns that love tenfold.
You will love him…and he has siblings if you heart is open to two. It’s not a requirement but it is always better to have two.
So if you are looking for playful, people friendly, fun-loving kittens…he (and his siblings) would be a good match.
He can be adopted through RESQCATS at The Montecito Pet Shop on the Mesa at 2020 Cliff Drive in Santa Barbara. The number for the shop is (805)965-6780. Adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10-5 and Sunday from 10-3.
If possible, please make your adoption donation in cash or a check so we can avoid all those credit card fees and every dollar of what you give can go back to the cats and kittens!

“REX” IS FUN, FRIENDLY, LOVABLE AND PRETTY DARN CUTE.
HE JUST ARRIVED AT THE MONTECITO PET SHOP ON THE MESA!

Very few rescue kittens are gifted with being born in the comfort and safety of a rescue group. But Rex got lucky! His mom came to RESQCATS as a stray and gave birth to her kittens here about three weeks after she arrived. I’ve had the pleasure of watching her raise her family and even when she was exhausted, she never failed as a mom. Luckily, she had found a home and that leaves only her kittens behind.
Rex is a dark tabby boy with oodles of personality and he is very out-going…always the first to instigate play with his brothers and sisters. In fact, he is open to going home with one of them, but it’s not required.
Rex had a vet exam and is tested for Felv/FIV. (His mom tested negative, too). He has received his first FVRCP vaccines and is wormed, neutered and micro-chipped.
He can be adopted through RESQCATS at The Montecito Pet Shop on the Mesa at 2020 Cliff Drive in Santa Barbara. The number for the shop is (805)965-6780. Adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10-5 and Sunday from 10-3.
If possible, please make your adoption donation in cash or a check so we can avoid all those credit card fees and every dollar of what you give can go back to the cats and kittens!
