13th Street Cat Rescue

Heather is a beautiful white and gray 8-month-old Maine Coon mix teenage kitten. She is on the shyer side and we need patient adopters with a quiet home; and the adopters will need to follow our advice so she will warm up to them and become an awesome companion. She loves to be petted and asks for it but it has taken some time to get to that point of course. And she likes to keep up on her mani/pedis with her cardboard scratcher. She enjoys watching what we are doing and keeping up on daily activities!

Her back story was she was half of a pair of siblings (Heidi is her sister) that were owner surrenders at a local shelter. They were living in the house only and so used to people, but were very scared at the shelter with no idea why all this was happening to them! So we were asked to take them.

They are doing better here, and we feel they will be just fine once in a quiet home environment which follows our directions, so they can relax. She, or they, will be best in a home that is familiar with cats, not a first time adopter, no little kids and likely no dogs, as they have no dog experience. They are food motivated which is very helpful to bonding and it’s time now to let them have a real home and then they can get settled!

Heather can be adopted without Heidi as we know they get along but it’s not critical they remain together; but if you are looking for a pair that'd be great! And she should be OK in homes with other cats too, but does need to get bonded to you first before introduction.

13thstcats.org is a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit, No-Kill Rescue Group based in San Jose.

We try our best to match our cats to the perfect homes, and match them based on their personalities, not their looks. Adoptions are not done on a first come, first serve basis, rather in the order of what homes are the right match for that particular cat
