Adoptable SCAA Cats & Kittens
|
Health
SCAA foster animals are ready for adoption when they are healthy and vaccinated following proper veterinary assessment for our vet partner, PAW . Foster animals receive safe and effective parasite control - Revolution for fleas & ear mites and Drontal for de-worming. Feline virus vaccinations (Tri Cat or Fel-O-Vax) are given to healthy fosters starting either 7-10 days from rescue or at 9 weeks old, with a second set 4-6 weeks later. Foster cats also receive a rabies vaccination on the second vaccination visit, but this is not officially recognized for pet export purposes. Foster cats are spayed/neutered at around 5.5 - 6 months of age. For animals too young for surgery on adoption, SCAA will subsidize half the surgery cost at PAW for adopters. |
Temperament & Ideal Home
SCAA's foster cats and kittens may be from the streets, gardens, and lane ways of Shanghai, but they are not feral. Cats have their own unique personalities and the variety of foster homes - from families, multiple pets, to quiet singles or couples, means foster animals have different socializing experiences. SCAA has cats that play fetch or walk up to repairmen for a head rub, but most foster cats fall comfortably along the average spectrum of feline friendliness; give them a chance to settle in on their own terms and you'll benefit from cat companionship, grateful affection, and entertaining animal antics. Pet profiles highlight which cats are suited to an active or family home, which cats desire more peace and quiet, and which fosters are cat or dog-friendly |

See * FOSTER ME ASAP * ? This means the foster cat urgently needs to move to a new foster home due to foster parent moving, travelling or being unavailable to continue fostering. Please contact us if you can help!

She's a strong personality but benefitting from foster cat Aeris' example.

Lovely Lilly is an excellent mix of tri-color curiosity with young cat cuddles. Fostered in a multi-cat home, Lilly is flexible with sharing and is a mentor to older foster Kayla. Lilly is an ideal family cat, second cat, or single cat in a home with the time to give her the attention she needs.
|

Hercules is fostered alone but has mentored kittens happily before. A nice adult cat for any home.
|
Mulder Male < 9 months
Pair / Second or Single Cat / Quiet
Mulder's sister Scully was adopted and he's switched his allegiance to foster mate Magoo. Mulder is an odd mix of affectionate and oddly shy for a kitten practically hand raised.

|
|
Leila Female < 1 year
Singe Cat / Family or Quiet Home
Leila is a lap cat on her own terms! Confident, if not a bit bossy, Leila is an alpha female well-suited as a the single cat focus of her family, but she's recently hosted foster kittens Chloe and Bobby and discovered friendship! Needy for attention, and specifically for head rubs, Leila has struggled with dental issues and many teeth were extracted. She's on the mend but has steroid injections.
|
Ruby Female > 1 year
Single Cat / Quiet Home
Ruby is a shy but sweet cat who visibly struggles with her desire to snuggle up to new people she's naturally wary of!

Ideal cat for a quiet single or couple.
|
Aeris Female > 1 year
Second Cat / Family or Quiet Home
Aeris was rescued with a plastic bottle tag cutting deep into her underarm - someone had slipped it over her head as a kitten and it got stuck as she tried to free herself.

Another cat gives Aeris a fulfilling purpose!

A rare gem - Alex is a Tortie without 'Tortietude'! Happy to be with people, especially a foster dad she can groom, Alex is needy for attention.

Chester is one of those rare cats who pretty much rescue themselves! He was abandoned to a garden and after people befriended him he began to show up at their apartment door - 8 floors up.

|

Single or Second Cat / Family Home
A glamorous girl, Celine is a family-friendly cat who does well in a multi-cat home (as the little alpha female), but ideally could be the boss of her own Tortoiseshell empire.

|
Tabby Female > 2 years
|
|
Pair / Second Cats / Quiet Home
Opie and Ollie were rescued as tiny kittens abandoned in a box. They've thrived in the company of other cats in foster care but have grown into two very different, co-dependent brothers.

|
Pair / Second or Single Cat / Family

Second or Single Cat / Family Home
Marianne is the sole survivor of a cat family taken in by a fake rescue group before a dramatic re-rescue. She's a sweet and quiet girl, close to her foster family. Marianne won't greet guests at the door, but she'll be a regular Calico cat fixture wherever you happen to be hanging out. A submissive cat, she enjoys feline friends but has rejected the idea of a puppy buddy.
|
Noel Male > 8 months
Second or Single Cat / Family Home
Noel is a gorgeous tabby, whose twin brother Liam is already adopted. Noel has his foster cat friends Aeris and Pippin and foster parents to keep on cuddling, something he does especially well. Noel gives cat kisses and when he's not demanding people's attention he's off chasing and playing with the cats or enjoying a game of fetch with foster dad. A handsome and happy tabby.
|
Gabby & Scout < 2 years
Pair / Family or Quiet Home
Sister who've grown up close yet so different - Gabby the tabby is an "instant pet", making herself at home in new places with new people. Ginger girl Scout is co-dependent and takes a few weeks to take her cues from Gabby that it's all good to come out for cuddles. The girls are often together, even climbing on their foster mom, although Scout is quite large for that now (diet time!).
|
Bobbie Female < 1.5 years
Single or Second Cat / Quiet or Family Home / Older Kids
Where do lovely kittens (both inside and out) like Marley and Charlie, Bobbie's babies who were easily adopted, come from? Lovely mom cats of course. Bobbie is a beautiful bob-tailed brown tabby who was living in a downtown hotel and serviced apartment compound for over a year. It's a short life fraught with dangers. After her second litter of kittens and losing one who drowned in a fountain, rescuers decided to get Bobbie and her babies. Bobbie was initially earmarked for TNR, until she immediately proved herself to be a social and cuddly cat. She settled in soon after she arrived in foster care - destined for the great indoors, Bobbie purrs, plays and makes friends with quiet people and with gentle cats. But she's easily bullied by energetic felines so is ideal as a single pet. If Bobbie could talk, her most often used line would be "are you ready for bed yet?!" Parasite control, fully vaccinated and spayed, Bobbie is a sweet cat awaiting adopters.

Oreo Male < 9 months
Second or Single Cat / Family / Active or Quiet Home
Oreo is as sweet as his namesake. Found at just a few weeks old this past summer, with that cute perpetually surprised kitten face, Oreo has entertained and adored his foster parents and make a foster cat friend like he was born to be king of the great indoors. He's a cuddly cat, a stretchy cat, a real ham for the camera. Oreo enjoys being with people and would be a great cat friend for kids. He's also an ideal second cat or even second pet for a gentle dog.
It took a short while, but the energetic and curious Oreo made friends with an older and calmer foster cat mentor Phoebe. More than ready for a forever family Oreo is fully vaccinated, has parasite control and is neutered.

Arya Female > 1 year
Arya is a lovely little lady now as lovely on the outside as she always was on the inside thanks to a few months of anti-fungal care for ringworm. A happy cat, she's a bit cautious on meeting new people, but when she's quickly sussed out you're a cat person, she's your cat. Following in older foster brother Dexter's footsteps, Arya is curious and playful but easily persuaded to lie down on the bed for a nap - foster dad most welcome to join them. Arya makes an ideal second cat, as a pair with Dexter, or a single cat in home where she'd get plenty of attention. Happy & healthy, Arya was treated for mild ringworm, is vaccinated and spayed.
|
Dexter Males > 2 years
Dexter has been with SCAA a while - another "mystery" for unraveling...quite easily when you see his handsome and quiet ginger and white profile up against the always adorable babies looking for a forever home. Dexter is an ideal pet - proven loyal, happy, and healthy. He's wary of strangers, but it doesn't take long to be friends. Dexter is a sunbeam seeking sofa and bed cat who enjoys being around people. Not a lap cat, but that's ok as he's a big guy who'd have a hard time squishing himself on your average lap. Looking for a calm yet curious adult cat well adapted to a comfy life in9oors and the everyday routine of a busy home then look no further than Dexter. A good single cat, second cat or a pair with his foster friend Arya. Fully vaccinated and neutered.9
