Leonard and Fluffy are two male cats we are trying to help someone re-home. This is the information that we were given about the pair and their history:
“Five years ago my BFF, since kindergarten, called and wanted to come and live with me because she had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and needed help. She never married and her cats were her kids. Leonard and Fluffy came with her. We shared many good times and it was heart breaking to see her struggle with such a bad disease. Six months ago I couldn’t manage her any longer, due to health reasons with my husband, and she had to be placed in a home. Since then my husband and I sold our house and moved to CA to live with our son. My son is allergic to cats and my grandson is asthmatic so I have to find homes for Leonard and Fluffy.
Fluffy is a beautiful long hair senior cat. He is very shy but loves to sleep on the back of the couch or high on top of a cabinet.
Leonard is a handsome, curious, mischievous and very playful cat.”

Meet the family of Jackie O. Momma is a dilute medium hair female young cat. She has four kittens – Spunky (gray tabby short hair male), Cashmere (dilute calico medium hair female), Little Bits (tortoiseshell short hair female), Redford (orange tabby male short hair). They were found homeless wandering in a neighborhood yard when they were rescued.
Their foster home gave these descriptions of them:
Jackie O is cool and composed, but quick to be affectionate and talkative upon meeting someone new. She exudes an elegance about her. Jackie O is accepting of another cat and dog in the household while reigning supreme in keeping a watchful eye on her litter. She is a beauty.
Cashmere is very lively and playful. She sports the longest hair of her siblings and most resembles her mom. Most likely to win a Miss Kitty contest.
Spunky is like the friendly Energizer Bunny until his batteries finally dim. He loves to wrestle with his siblings and play with as many toys as he can find. Most likely to fall asleep anywhere.
Little Bits is the smallest of her siblings, but with the biggest and most gentle heart. She revels in being an independent explorer and when ready for a nap likes a good lap. Most likely to be voted “Sweetest of All”.
Redford is super confident and bonded with his foster kitty and doggie the quickest. Most likely to take over the world.
Momma and her kittens need more time to grow up and wean. We like our kittens to be 2.5 – 3 pounds for their spay and neuter surgery. This helps their little bodies develop more in many ways including their ability to tolerate anesthesia for surgery. We are posting them now so as to take names of interested adopters so once they have their surgeries we can adopt them into a forever home. We are hopefully to have them ready by early June but it could be earlier or later. Interested adopters will receive updates. Please email info@babybobbysmeowhouserescue.org with your interest. Please note if you are interested in a specific animal or interested in multiple.
Jackie O Dilute Calico Cat Available for AdoptionJackie O with her kittens – Dilute Calico Female Cat for for Adoption
Our kittens are not be available for adoption until they reach about 2.5-3 pounds which happens at about 10-12 weeks. At this time, the kittens will undergo a spay and neuter operation. It can be done younger; however, we have found waiting a few extra weeks gives a better lifetime of health to the cat so the kitten has more time to develop physically. The extra weight is helpful too in coping with potential anesthesia side effects after surgery. Please be patient with us 🙂
This family is being fostered in a private home by our cat rescue. We are a rescue and not a shelter so we do not have a facility. The kitten will not be available to meet until an adoption event at PetSmart in Temecula.

Maya was adopted out from our rescue as a kitten in September 2018. Tortoiseshell cats are known for having a “fire” gene which gives rise to their coat. It also makes them sassy with “tortitude”. Maya ‘s owner tried but her tortitude was too much. He asked to return her to us. She scratched the carpet and the owner was moving. Her current foster home has not reported any behavior issues and shared “so far she’s being a wonderful purring love bug.”

Barn Cats are feral or semi-feral cats who live outdoors. They are provided with shelter such a barn or similar structure that is safe place from cold, heat, and predators like coyotes. Barn cats are useful for helping to keep down the rodent populations in places where there are food sources for rodents such as grain. It makes the environment safer for you since you do not need traps and poisons to trap rodents.
We ensure to spay and neuter any cats so as to stop the cycle of pet overpopulation. We will also test the cats for diseases like feline leukemia and provide them with initial vaccinations.
The cats will not be able to sustain themselves on rodents alone. The adopter will need to provide supplemental food and water. The adopter may need to take the cat in for veterinary care.
When adopting a barn cat, placements work best by having multiple cats together. You can read more about it here for the safe relocation of feral cats.
If you are in the greater Temecula area (Murrieta, Hemet, Wildomar, Lake Elsinore) and are interested in adopting a barn cat, please email us at info@babybobbysmeowhouserescue.org.

Advice on Surrendering Your Cat
Our cat rescue can only take in animals provided that we have an open foster home willing to take the animal. If we are unable to take your pet, here are some tips from PetFinder.com about your next steps.
Deciding to Surrender Your Pet and Options
It is a huge decision to give away your pet, no matter how long or brief the period of time of ownership. Remember, for whatever reason you no longer are choosing to keep this pet, YOU are the person in this world who loves your pet more than anyone else and YOU no longer want your pet! First ask yourself if there is anything about your pet behaviorally or personality-wise that could be worked on in order for you to keep him. It is exceedingly difficult to find good, permanent homes for adolescent or adult animals (as you are finding out first-hand). There are a few things you need to do to be responsible and caring until the last possible moment:
Take your pet to the veterinarian for a check-up, vaccinations, and, most importantly spaying/neutering! If you were thinking that your pet might make a good breeding animal, STOP! Why breed from an animal that no-one wants anymore? Why make more unwanted animals in a world where even great pets dont remain very long in their first homes? You want someone to adopt your pet as a COMPANION, not because it might make a good or profitable breeding animal. You are much more apt to find a responsible, permanent home by placing an already sterilized pet. Get it done: its the least you can do, and the best thing you can do.
Spaying and neutering also reduces the risk your pet will run away from its next home, and helps to insure that your pet won’t urine mark his new home and thus become quickly unwanted again!
If your pet is already spayed or neutered, and has not bitten anyone,try to find a new home for your pet through advertising. Place a classified ad in your local newspaper, and screen any callers carefully. Be completely honest about all your pet’s behaviors, good and bad. No pet is perfect, and people are more likely to adopt a pet they know about, for better or worse. When screening callers, tell every caller that someone has already come to look at your pet, but you are still taking names and telephone numbers and references, in case, so you can call them back. This gives you an instant out if you think the caller is not right for your pet, and hurts no ones feelings.
Take a few good, color photos and make some posters. Include your pet’s name (it personalizes him…) and include his best traits, his most endearing qualities, and some guidelines for the best possible home: i.e., no small kids, someone whos home a lot, no other pets, good for experienced dog owner, etc.
Be careful in choosing an animal shelter. Visit the kennels, meet the staff, familiarize yourself with the shelter’s policies. A No Kill policy might look good at first, but not if your dog will end up living out his life in the kennels.
If your pet is aggressive, or has nipped or bitten someone, EVER, then please get a professional behavioral evaluation before giving away your pet. Check with state and local laws, too, about liability in re-homing a pet with prior knowledge of aggression. Do not try to find a new home for an aggressive animal without professional help.
If your pet has a behavior problem, he’ll take it with him to the next home. Many problems are workable, or at least manageable. Contact a trainer or behavior counselor and see if its not possible to work things out so you can keep your pet.
