9. Tucson
Kitten · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 6 mi from Laguna Niguel


I am currently available for adoption from my foster home. If you're interested in adopting me, fill out an application on our website www.carmaoc.org
Hi! I’m Tucson and I’m the definition of cheerful charm. I’m a mostly white kitten with a small dark patch that adds a dash of character. I’m known for my long, sound naps, yet when I’m awake, life becomes a comedy routine. I’m easily trusting, eager for friendship and happiest when batting at toys on strings. My gentle, good-natured personality makes me approachable and easy to bond with. I offer a sweet mix of amusement and affection, the kind of kitten who makes people smile just by being myself.
Read more about Tucson
Beyond my nap and play routine, I find a way of making myself endearing. I’ll flop onto my side, stretch my tiny legs, and look up with quiet trust. My comical side comes out unexpectedly like when I tumbles mid-pounce or pause mid-groom as though I’ve forgotten what I was doing; yet I’m never frazzled, I just calmly continue as if that was exactly what I meant to do. My welcoming nature makes me the type of kitten that’s just happy just to be here with you. I’m the kind of cat who builds quiet joy into everyday moments. I’m an easy kitty to love.
My adoption fee is $175. That includes spay/neuter, microchip, FIV/FeLV combo test, current vaccines and health check.

10. Sedona
Kitten · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 6 mi from Laguna Niguel


I am currently available for adoption from my foster home. If you're interested in adopting me, fill out an application on our website www.carmaoc.org
Hi! I’m Sedona and I’m the little thinker of the group, an exceptionally intelligent kitten who seems to be several steps ahead of my brothers. I am observant, curious, and remarkably quick to learn, often being the first to figure out something new. I was the first to master the litter box, the first to discover the cat fountain, and the first to confidently explore new toys and experiences. Give me a new challenge and I’m likely to have it figured out before everyone else has even realized there is something to figure out! I’m also dog-friendly and very easy to handle.
Read more about Sedona
I may not be the kitten who immediately launches myself into your lap demanding attention, but that is not because I’m unfriendly, I am simply more discerning about when and how I give my affection. I am remarkably aware of human intentions and can often tell when someone is trying to pick me up or move me. Catching me can be the challenging part because I know exactly what you are up to! Once I’m in your arms, however, I am incredibly gentle and cooperative. I do not swat, bite, or fight you, and I allow myself to be handled, picked up, and cared for with surprising ease. And when I finally choose to spend time with you, it feels like you have won the kitten lottery. My affection is not something I give away indiscriminately, which makes those moments when I seek you out or settle comfortably in your arms feel incredibly special. I have a sweet, gentle side that shines once I trust you, and earning that trust is part of what makes me so rewarding to know.

17. Bowtie
Kitten (2 months 20 days) · Female · Tuxedo / Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed (medium coat) · 7 mi from Laguna Niguel




Bowtie is a spirited, wobbly-but-never-slowed-down kitten who proves that a little cerebellar hypoplasia or CH won't dampen a big personality.
Bowtie's CH is considered moderate to severe, as she is not able to walk, stand, or sit up on her own, however her head and body tremors are generally mild and tend to appear when she's focused on an object or eating food. Even so, she can lift her head and push herself up using her front legs, and she gets around quite capably by using her front nails to pull and her back legs to push herself along—for her to maneuver independently, though, she needs carpeted floors or non-slip bath mats underfoot for traction. She can enjoy her meals from a bowl while lying down, or with proper supports around her if she chooses to try to sit—once she's positioned comfortably, she eats just fine. Given her small size, a standard litterbox looks like a monumental challenge to her right now, so for the time being she uses modified boxes and pee pads, and she should be able to adapt to commercially available low-entry boxes as she gets bigger.
Read more about Bowtie
And energy? This kitten runs on premium fuel. She doesn't just play—she conducts full-scale campaigns against her toys, wand-toy in one paw and her long-suffering snake in the other, wrestling it into submission with the intensity of a kitten twice her size. She flops into rooms with purpose, announces her opinions loudly (especially about food dishes), and propels herself across the room with sheer determination, pulling and scooting her way toward whatever's caught her attention—usually followed by a dramatic collapse into a well-earned nap. It's a lot of enthusiasm packed into one small, formally-dressed package, all the more reason her space needs to be safe and protected as she moves.
Her ideal adopter will understand that this kind of support and patience is simply part of loving Bowtie, and that she's happy to coexist with feline housemates as well.
She's looking for a patient adopter ready to "Bowtie-proof" a home with soft landings and safe exploring spots. Cerebellar hypoplasia is not contagious and doesn't require medication, and it's not progressive, so Bowtie's condition will not worsen over time. With appropriate care and support from her family, she can look forward to a normal lifespan, and this level of determined, tumbling joy is simply who she is—for life.

Kitten · Female · Egyptian Mau / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 5 mi from Laguna Niguel




❤️Meet Dolly & Kenny — Two Little Lovebugs Looking for Their Forever Home
Dolly & Kenny are an exceptionally loving pair of kittens with hearts as big as their purrs. They were rescued at approximately four weeks old along with four other kittens and have been lovingly cared for in our home ever since.
From the moment they arrived, they received everything they needed to grow into healthy, happy kittens. They were immediately bathed, examined, dewormed, treated for fleas, and given high-quality kitten milk and nutritious wet food. They have never been raised in cages. They live with us as part of the family, which has helped them become confident, social, affectionate, and wonderfully well-adjusted.
What truly makes Dolly & Kenny special is their incredible disposition. They are two of the friendliest, gentlest, happiest, most loving kittens you could ever meet. They purr almost nonstop, adore attention, and are completely comfortable being handled and loved by people. They are playful and entertaining, but they are also incredibly sweet and content to cuddle close.
They have been around dogs and other cats and would make amazing companions for someone looking for two affectionate, family-oriented kittens. Sweet Pea and Percy share a beautiful bond, and we would love to see them adopted together so they can continue growing up side by side.
Their adoption fee is $250 for the pair. They will be:

Kitten (4 months 19 days) · Male · Bombay / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 7 mi from Laguna Niguel




Hi, I’m Obsydian… but you can call me Syd!
Dear Future Human,
You might think I’m a tiny black panther. And you wouldn’t be entirely wrong. I’m sleek, adorable, and very good at sneaking around. But I’m actually a sweet little Bombay mix kitten with one very special feature: a tiny
white diamond on my chest.
✨
My middle name is
Lucky
—and I definitely earned it!
I was found in the
middle of the 405 freeway
, desperately trying to dart between cars. Thankfully, my brave finder pulled over, and after a daring rescue, she managed to catch me
under her car!
Let’s just say my nine lives got a pretty serious workout that day.
Read more about Obsydian
These days, I’m safe at DREAM Animal Rescue, and I’m much more interested in
toy mice, coils, cat trees, and sneaking out from under the sofa to surprise everyone.
I’m sweet and friendly, I love playing with other kitties, and I even tolerate the dog I live with—which, frankly, should earn me another award. Once I get to know you, I’ll happily trade my panther persona for
snuggles and cuddles.
Oh, and I’m an
expert litter-box user
, because I believe a gentleman should have excellent manners.
So… how about you come meet me? I have a feeling my luck—and yours—might just be about to change.
Apply to meet me at DREAMar.org.
Love,
Obsydian “Syd” Lucky
Tiny Panther. Big Personality. Very Lucky.

26. Santiago
Kitten (3 months 16 days) · Male · Tabby / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 7 mi from Laguna Niguel






Dear Wonderful Human,
Hi! My name is Santiago , and I’m a bright orange little guy with a heart just as sunny as my fur! ☀️
My name is perfect for me because I was named after the sun-drenched orange clay trails of Santiago Canyon . Santiago means Saint James —and let me tell you, I am definitely a SAINT !
When my littermates and I were separated from our mama, my five siblings decided I was the tastiest kitten around. They loved to snuggle up and suckle on me! And what did I do? I simply lay there calmly and let them soothe themselves on my back . Apparently, being a good big brother means being a very patient pillow!
Read more about Santiago
But I’m not all cuddles and patience. I’m also a playful, curious little explorer who thinks the whole world is my playground. I LOVE toy mice and crinkly toys, and I’m happiest when I’m romping and playing with my siblings— Black Star, Limestone, Modjeska, Silverado, and Trabuco .
I’m a social boy who loves attention, and I especially enjoy climbing and playing in cat trees. If there’s something new in the room, you can bet I’ll be the first one investigating it. I believe every corner, toy, box, and crinkle deserves a thorough inspection!
I’m also a very good boy: I always use my litter box , I’m not finicky about food , and I’m ready to bring plenty of sweetness, silliness, and sunshine into my forever home.
Maybe you’re the human I’ve been waiting for.
Come meet me. Let me charm you with my orange fur, my gentle heart, my playful spirit, and my very special talent for being the best sibling pillow ever. ❤️
I’m waiting at D.R.E.A.M. Animal Rescue , hoping my forever family will find me soon.
Please apply to adopt me at dreamar.org.
Love and sunny orange purrs,
Santiago
Your little Saint of Santiago Canyon

Kitten · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 6 mi from Laguna Niguel



I am currently available for adoption at the Rancho Santa Margarita Petsmart. If you're interested in adopting me, fill out an application on our website www.carmaoc.org
Hi! I’m Salsa Verde and I am a sweet and very shy kitten. I love chasing around and playing with my brothers and other cats/kittens. When people come near, I am nervous and don't like to be picked up but I tolerate it. I do like people and will come and sit near them. I enjoy pets and will sometimes start purring. I also like to play with people's fingers but sometimes I play a bit too rough. My fosters are teaching me to play more gently. Squeeze treats are one way of earning my trust. I need a home with patient people who will give me time to warm up.

Adopting a kitten in Laguna Niguel
Kittens usually go to their new homes from about eight weeks old, once they're eating on their own and have had their first vaccinations. Most rescues spay or neuter them before adoption, or include it in the fee.
Think about adopting two. Kittens raised together play with each other instead of your ankles and furniture, and many rescues charge less for a pair.
Kittens need more of your time than grown cats: several small meals a day, plenty of play, and a home with cords and small objects tidied away.
