Moo took a bit longer to warm up, but once he did, he is pure love. He is easy going, chill most of the time, finds random cat toys around the house to keep himself entertained. He will also come and jump on your lap and purr and enjoy a cuddle session a few times a day.

Pierre has a very sweet disposition to go along with his sweet face and soulful eyes. He loves to play with his sister, Vivienne, and is a champion biscuit maker. A devoted brother and protector of his sister, Vivienne, but also still a 'baby' who often suckles his little blanket, or one of his tiny toe beans as he’s getting ready to snooze after playtime. Pierre is a wonderful combination of playfulness, curiosity, and sweetness.

27. Vivienne
Vivienne must be adopted with her brother Pierre
Vivienne is already wise beyond her months and recognizes the need for balance, equally enjoying playtime and appreciating time to relax and cuddle. Her favorite place to be in the kitten cafe is the swinging chair where you will often find her kitten/people watching, and her brother, Pierre, likely swinging her or standing guard next to her, like the devoted and attentive brother he is. She’s happy to be your cuddle buddy and sit right next to you while you’re reading, watching tv, or pondering life. She has gorgeous blue eyes and the softest fur you’ve ever felt.

28. Socks
Socks must be adopted with his brother Jiji
If you visit me at the cat cafe, you might see me practicing my expert hide-and-seek skills. The bustling cafe life can be a bit overwhelming for a sensitive soul like me! But my foster family knows a secret: once the room goes quiet, my true personality shines.
Read more about Socks
I am a total feather-toy fanatic! The moment the fishing rod toy comes out, my inner athlete wakes up and I get incredibly energetic, pouncing and leaping all over the room.
In my foster home, during calm afternoons and quiet evenings, I am an absolute purr-machine. I love crawling into lap territory, demanding chin scratches, and showing just how affectionate I can be. I am looking for a patient human who understands that a little bit of time brings a lifetime of joy!

29. Jiji
Jiji must be adopted with his brother Socks
Take one look at my sleek black coat and my handsome grey chest and belly, and you'll see I’m dressed to impress! While the busy energy of the cat cafe makes me a little hesitant at first, I am a deeply gentle soul who is just waiting for the right moment to say hello.
During the calm hours at my foster home, I love to quietly step out, investigate what my human is doing, and offer soft nudges for head scratches. I have a wonderfully tender, sweet personality and will blossom beautifully in a patient home.

All of our kittens are only available for adoption in pairs as it is our policy not to place kittens under six months of age in a forever home without another same aged kitten. We also do not place kittens older than six months into homes where there is currently not another young cat in residence. Most of our kittens are in "bonded pairs" or bonded with their littermates. We reserve the right not to separate bonded pairs or place kittens individually. The happiness and quality of life for our kittens is our top priority. =^..^=

Adopting a cat in Gilroy
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.
Senior cats are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate cat, ask the rescues about their older residents.
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.
