1. Daisy
Young (5 months 24 days) · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat)




Hello guys and gals! My name is Daisy and I am a 6 month old, spayed, currently small-sized, black, female, domestic shorthair kitty cat! I'm a sweet and kind girl who is looking for her forever home to create a beautiful life with. I'm a curious gal who likes to greet people the moment they enter my kitty condo, though I'm not necessarily a social butterfly. I let my inquisitive side lead me while observing and taking in the scenes around me. After my quick inspection, you'll see both my playful and loving side! Some days I'm all about my fave toys and others, I'm happy to just silently chill next to you and receive lots of gentle caresses against my soft fur. I'm kind of the best mix ever, don't you think? If you agree (which I'm sure you do), come on down to the shelter and let's meet so you can see all of my sides manifest in person!

4. Meeko
Adult (2 years) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat)



Hello friends, I am Meeko! I am a handsome, two year old, neutered gray tabby domestic short hair who is medium in size and is lookin for his forever home! I'm a sweet boy who can sometimes start off a bit timid as I like to take in all the sights and sounds around me before I can feel comfortable. Once I've settled, you'll see my affectionate and loving side come out as I rub against you for cheek and chin scratches on my adorable, cherub face. You might even find me crawling into your lap for some extra close bonding time. While I love seeking attention, I can also sometimes get a little overstimulated so I'm looking for a family who will understands when I need my space and me-time. Other days, I have a playful side that is itching to come out! I love playing with wand toys and pipe cleaners; it's a great way for me to get my energy out! I enjoy people, but am not always fond of other feline friends so I am looking for a forever home where I can be the only cat. Loud noises can also be a bit much for me so I would also do best in a household with teens and older if children are present. If you think we might be a good match, then come on down to the shelter so we can test out the waters and you can hopefully take me home with you! <3

10. Esme
Adult · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat)


Hello dear friends, my name is Esme! I am a 2 year old, spayed female, small-sized, brown and white tabby, domestic shorthair cat. I am a sweet and kind girl in a big and scary world who likes to take things slowly. New people, sounds and environments can make me a little nervous at first so you initially might find me observing from the comfort of my cozy cardboard box while I figure everything out. Patience is key so I'm looking for a family who understands that trust is something precious. Just give me a quiet place and a gentle voice and I'll slowly start to show you more of who I am. I think I might even see cuddles and fun-filled playtime in our future! If you're looking for a gentle soul to build a life with, then come on down to the shelter to learn more about me!

14. Albert
Young (6 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat)






Hiya folks, I'm Albert and it's a pleasure to meet you! I am a 6 month old, neutered male, black, domestic shorthair cat who is currently on the small side as a growing boy. As a matter of fact, I'm growing in more ways than one as I'm also quite the shy boy who is still finding his way. I'm the cat embodiment of the phrase, "Good things come to those who wait" as I like to take my time when it comes to new people and spaces. Boxes and cozy nooks are my thing as I adjust so I'd love one in my future forever home too. Once I finally get comfortable, you'll see my super fun and social side come out! In fact, many have said I'm quite goofy! Once I get going, I'm gone! I adore playing with all kinds of toys and transform into a silly, little hunter who bops around, determined to capture that one stuffed mice toy.

Hey there everyone, my name is Big Hunk! I am a 6 month old, neutered male, black and white, domestic shorthair cat who is on the smaller side as I'm still a growing boy. With a name like Big Hunk, you might think I'm the boldest and most handsome guy around - obviously the second is true, but I'm also a mellow and sometimes more reserved fella. I'm not the kind of cat who will approach you, but will happily accept cheek and chin scratches that come my way. When I'm not chilling out next to you getting my cute lil head pet, you might find me playfully wrestling with some of my fave toys! Basically, I'm the perfect mix of chill and playful! :D If you're looking for a kitty doesn't need to be the main protagonist, but will love you all the same, then look no further - I'm your guy!

Read more about Frito & Dorito
Hey there, my name is Frito! I am 6 month old, spayed female, gray tabby, domestic shorthair kitty cat who is on the smaller size as I'm still a growing girl. I'm bonded with my brother, Dorito, and together, we're the two coolest cats in town! A little bit about me - I'm an adorable, but slightly nervous gal who is still growing into myself in more ways than one. I can be timid and am cautious around new faces, but have been slowly, but surely, getting more confident and brave. I like to approach people at my own pace and love getting gentle pets as I grow more comfortable around you - my purrs say it all! I also enjoy playtime with a specific affinity for shoelaces and feather toys - it's the simple things in life after all! With all of this being said, I would do best in a very experienced cat household without kids who are willing to provide me with lots of time, understanding and love as I grow into a more confident and self-assured cat that I know I can be. If you think we could learn and grow together, then come on down to the shelter and ask for more information about me. I can't wait to find my furever people!- Frito ID#A0986988
Hiya, my name is Dorito and it's a pleasure to meet you! I am a 6 month old, neutered male, gray tabby, domestic shorthair cat who is looking for his furever family with my sister, Frito! I'm currently on the smaller size as I am still young and growing. Not only am I growing physically, but personality-wise too! I'm a sweet, little guy who can be quite timid, but am on my journey to becoming a more confident cat. Like my sister, I am cautious and can be unsure of new people and environments, but am also hoping to follow in her paw-steps and challenge myself with being a little braver, one step at a time. While physical touch may not be my love language right now, there is still plenty of room for me to warm up to it and in the meantime, I enjoy playing with toys that help me feel more comfortable in my surroundings - love a good feather toy! As mentioned above, my ideal home would be with a very cat-experienced family without children who can be patient with me and understands my needs as I continue to grow into myself. I know that we can build something special and strong together, a bond for life.- Dorito ID#A0986987

Read more about Ebony & Sukkar
Hi there, my name is Ebony! I am a 1 year old, spayed female, small-sized, domestic shorthair, brown tabby. I'm looking for my forever home with my brother and bestie, Sukkar. I'm a shyer girl who is still finding my way in this big, beautiful world. I'm a gentle soul who just needs some time to adjust to new surroundings and people. One thing I love to do that puts me at ease is perching up next to a window where I can observe and take in the loud and big sights of the world from afar. The sun shining on my face doesn't hurt either! I also have a playful side that comes out from time to time and will probably grow as I spend more time with you. Wand toys and lasers are my toys of choice; I'm a classic girl at the end of the day! And of course, I enjoy head and cheek rubs as I get to know you more. With all of this being said, I'd appreciate going to a family that has some experience with more introverted cats and if kids are present, teenagers and above only. I would do best with a family who can dedicate time and patience to helping me continue to come out of my shell. There's still so much to learn and be and I'm sure you can help me get there. :)- ID#A0986880
Hi everyone, my name is Sukkar! I am also a 1 year old, neutered male, small-sized domestic shorthair, brown tabby. I'm a two for one deal so wherever I'm going, it'll be with my sister, Ebony! I'm also a timid guy and get a bit nervous when meeting new people or being in new environments. Though with time and patience, I'm hoping to grow out of this and become a more confident cat. One fun fact about me is that I'm quite the playful dude and love spending time with wand and feather toys that make me the ultimate parkour master! I'm also an avid lover of Churu treats (who isn't?) that help me feel more comfortable around you for gentle head pets and rubs. The stomach truly is the way to a guy's heart! I'd really appreciate going to a family who is committed to slow and steady work so I can thrive in life with you. Teens and above only please. :)- ID#A0986879

20. Peezy
Adult (6 years) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat)





Hello friends, I am Peezy! I am a 6 year old, neutered male, dark chocolate brown, domestic shorthair cat who is large in size. I'm an easygoing gentleman who enjoys spending time with the people I trust. Since I can get overstimulated at times, I would especially enjoy people who are kind, patient, and gentle with me.
My ideal home is a quiet and relaxed one where I can be the only cat, and where I can enjoy the simple pleasures in life—lounging in a sunny spot, stretching out on the floor, and keeping you company throughout the day. I'm a laid-back companion who appreciates a peaceful environment and enjoys being near my favorite people.
One of my favorite things is snack time! I love my treats and kibble, and they're even better when you're nearby giving me pets and attention. I am on a gradual weight loss journey though, so not too many treats.

Adult (2 years) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Torbie (short coat)








Hello there! I am Polly Pocket, a 2-year-old, medium size, spayed female, domestic short-hair, Torbie cat. I'm a playful lady who is looking to be the greatest one-and-only kitty in my furever home. I love to catch toys, chase toys, stalk toys, jump and climb around, I can do it all! I'm quite the athlete. I'd love to play all day with my family when I'm not lounging around in the coziest of spots. When I'm in the mood for it, I love to headbutt you for pets and even rest in your lap for a full-body massage. I do get overwhelmed in new situations, so I would love to go to an adult-only home, as children can be a little much for me. Basically I want to be the only pet in the home, though I might be ok sharing your love with say, a goldfish. Does it seem like I'd be the absolute purrrfect companion for you? I bet I would be! Come on down and ask for me by name!

How to adopt from Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA
When a potential adopter comes into the shelter and sees an animal he or she is interested in adopting, we ask the potential adopter to first complete an Adoption Profile. Then, one of our knowledgeable customer service representatives brings the adopter and animal together in one of our Get Acquainted Rooms. There they have a quiet, private space to get to know each other better. During the visit, the customer service representative may discuss the following: past experiences with animals and current animals in the home lifestyle, including work schedule and the kinds of activities they plan to do with their companion animal housing situation - own or rent, size of yard, etc. In order to make the best match possible for a family and home, we suggest potential adopters bring along all members of the household to meet the new companion animal and bring their current dog(s) to meet a potential dog. Adopters must also be 18 or older.
