1. Scout DM
Kitten · Male · Domestic Long Hair / Maine Coon (long coat) · 97 mi from Chico




Scout — A Fluffy Little Adventurer!
At just 10 weeks old, Scout is a handsome little explorer with the fluffiest coat, the biggest whiskers, and a whole world to discover!
Curious, playful, and full of confidence, Scout is always ready for his next adventure. He's an independent little fellow who prefers exploring and playing to being carried around. Being held? No, thank you! He's much too busy for that!
Scout needs a feline playmate! This energetic little guy has so much enthusiasm for life that he'd be happiest in a home with another playful kitten or young cat. He needs a buddy to chase, wrestle, tumble, and share his adventures with.
Scout has been raised around dogs, so canine companions are already a familiar part of his world.
And if you're considering adopting two kittens, his equally adventurous friend Birdie would make a wonderful companion! These two could bring twice the fun to one lucky home.
With his adorable face, oversized paws, and larger-than-life personality, Scout promises plenty of entertainment and a whole lot of fun!

2. Nutmeg Napa
Kitten · Domestic Long Hair / Tuxedo (long coat) · 97 mi from Chico




Meet Nutmeg — The Fluffy Little Baby Who Will Steal Your Heart!
Some kittens are just born to be loved, and Nutmeg is one of those extra-special little souls who will melt your heart the moment you meet her! ❤️
At just 9 weeks old, this adorable black-and-white fluffy sweetheart is everything you could ever wish for in a kitten. She’s playful, affectionate, social, and full of that irresistible kitten magic!
Her foster family affectionately calls her “The Baby,” and once you meet her, you’ll understand exactly why!
Every morning, Nutmeg has the sweetest little routine. From her indoor catio, she calls out to her foster family, letting them know she’s awake and ready for her morning love! The moment someone scoops her into their arms, her tiny motor starts running, filling the room with the most precious, rumbly purrs.

It’s her special way of saying, “I missed you! Now please love me!” ❤️
And trust us, Nutmeg takes cuddling VERY seriously!
But don’t let all that sweetness fool you! This little girl is ALL kitten! She’s a toy-chasing, adventure-loving, playful bundle of fluff who believes every day should be filled with fun, snuggles, and more fun!
A Little Social Butterfly!
Nutmeg absolutely LOVES other cats! She has already lived with two different pairs of foster kitties and has happily made friends along the way. She doesn’t seem to know a stranger, whether they’re human or feline!
Her foster home includes two children, a mom, and a dad, so she’s growing up surrounded by family life, love, and lots of attention.
We think Nutmeg would be absolutely delighted to have a kitty friend to play and cuddle with. But she could also be your one-and-only fur baby, happily soaking up all your affection and becoming your very best friend.
What makes Nutmeg so special?
It’s her gentle little soul. Her trusting nature. Her joyful spirit. The way she calls for her people in the morning and melts into their arms with that happy little purr.
She’s not just looking for a home. She’s looking for someone to love with her whole tiny heart.
And somewhere out there is a lucky family who doesn’t even realize yet that a little girl named Nutmeg is about to become the best part of their day. ❤️
Nutmeg is ready to find her forever family!

3. Shakibby
Adult · Male · Domestic Long Hair / Maine Coon (long coat) · 97 mi from Chico




Meet Shakibby — Your Mellow Little Bobtailed Sidekick ❤️
Shakibby is the kind of cat who brings a quiet, gentle presence into a home. He’s sweet, easygoing, and happiest simply being near his people.
And you can’t meet Shakibby without noticing one of his most adorable features — his darling little short bobtail! He often carries it curled right over his back, giving him a look that is completely his own. Pair that cute little curl with his gorgeous, plush medium-to-long coat, and he is one seriously handsome boy. His fur is incredibly soft — the kind you just want to keep running your hands through.
He’s not your typical lap cat or constant cuddler — Shakibby shows his affection in his own soft, special way.
Read more about Shakibby
He’ll nap nearby while you work, making him the perfect coworker for anyone working from home. During quiet evenings, he may settle beside you on the couch, gently lean against you, and reward you with the sweetest little purr.
Walk over to say hello while he’s lounging and you’ll almost always be greeted with that same loving purr. He has also been wonderfully gentle with the family’s 4-year-old and is comfortable when visitors come over — no disappearing under the bed when company arrives!
Don’t let his mellow personality fool you, though. Bring out the wand toy and Shakibby is ready to PLAY! He also enjoys putting on his leash and taking a little stroll around the backyard for some supervised outdoor time. The best part? He’s not demanding about either. If you’re busy, he’s perfectly content to relax nearby and keep you company.
Shakibby does not enjoy living with other cats, so he is looking for a home where he can be your one and only feline companion. In return, you’ll get a gentle, independent, sweet-natured boy with velvety-soft fur, that unforgettable little curled bobtail, and a peaceful presence that makes him so easy to love. ❤️
COURTESY POSTING: Shakibby is not currently in our rescue. If you are interested in adopting him, please fill out an adoption application and submit it to us. Once approved, we will forward your application to Shakibby’s owner, who will handle the next steps.
Sometimes the best companions aren’t the ones who demand your attention — they’re the ones quietly purring beside you, with an adorable little bobtail curled over their back. ❤️

Read more about Cece
Physical Description
Cece (cease fire, Cecil) is the softest cat you will meet in a long time. Her lovely medium length hair is like that of an Angora rabbit, silky and fine. She has white paws as if dipped in milk, and a charming white chest and belly peaking out at front that gently curves up her chin into a thin line. Her lovely white whiskers frame a dark face with bright yellow eyes. One of her eyes is very slightly cloudy; damage from a cold virus when she was a kitten, but she clearly has no idea, and never lets it stop her.
Personality
Cece has the soul of a delicate gentle heart. She entered our house quietly, gave all our cats space, and became a quiet puzzle piece that fitted in like it belonged. She loves to snuggle on beds and couches, and can be found purring loudly by your ear in a gentle ball long after you've gone to sleep for the night. She is content to give our older animals all the space they need; never bothering them, but thrilled to have a fellow kitten and younger cat on hand to pounce and be silly with. For some odd reason, she thinks rocks make a humorous toy; and likely has quite a few more odd traits hiding behind her cute furry face!She is still nervous of being approached on the ground; slow steps and gentleness are very helpful. But she is not hard to coerce into reach, and once you have her she is pleased to be petted, cuddled, and played with. She is a wonderful companion who would make a sweet addition to almost any household.

Caring for a long-haired cat
Long coats need regular grooming: brushing a few times a week, and every day when they shed in spring, stops knots and mats from forming and cuts down on hairballs.
Get them used to it gently, with short sessions and a treat afterward. A wide-toothed comb and a soft slicker brush handle most coats.
