18. Nutmeg Napa
Kitten · Domestic Long Hair / Tuxedo (long coat) · 46 mi from Clearlake




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.
Read more about Nutmeg Napa
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!

20. Kodiak
Kitten · Male · Tabby (short coat) · 46 mi from Clearlake




Kodiak is a darling playful and snuggly 5 month old! He’s best friends with all the kitties and dogs at his foster home and has even won over the resident cranky resident cats who let him groom them (and he’s the only one who can)! He turns anything into a play toy and his current favorite toy is a plastic ladle from Panera. He’s a talker and has a great meow when he wants to be pet or when he sees a fly to annihilate. He loves all living things and will snuggle with the kitties, the dogs and on his foster’s lap or curled up next to her. He’d be a perfect starter kitty with his happy-go-lucky lifestyle or with any aficionado of kitties.
Read more about Kodiak
He’s not a fan of being picked up, like most kitties, but will gift you a minute. For that, we think he’d be best with kids who are old enough to know kitty behaviors and listen. He’s a loooong kitten and naturally lean. He‘s looking like he might be one of those long, lanky kitties…but come nap time, he’ll curl up in a tight ball, right in your lap! Oh, and if you call for him, he will trill back to you and come over for pets!

Adopting a cat in Clearlake
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the cat, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your cat in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Kittens go quickly, especially in spring and summer. If you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon, and think about adopting two: young cats keep each other company and out of mischief.
