Community Pet Listings
Some pet owners need to re-home an animal and prefer not to surrender it to a shelter. We help by including their animals here on our Community Pet Listings page. Each post is live on our site for up to 30 days, and is written by the pet’s owner. If you have questions or would like to adopt an animal on the list, simply contact the owner directly by phone or email.

Rhoda & Kitty
Females
13 years
Conure and Cockatiel
Read more about them!
Rhoda is the Conure. She’s very funny and trained to step up. She also talks some. I have had her for 13 years.
Kitty I bought as an adult. She Was not hand trained, so I have never held her. She’s been a lovely companion for Rhoda.
I would like for both of the girls to stay together in the large cage I have posted. It is not recommended to have those two birds together in a small cage.
The cage is two small catio I put together. Is 65 inches tall times 90 inches.
I do not want to rehome these babies, but a family member has been diagnosed as being allergic.

Flea
Neutered Male

Domestic Shorthair
Read more about Flea!
Flea & Marcy are an almost 1 year old bonded brother & sister duo in foster care looking for their forever home.
Flea is a little hunk of love who is tiny, incredibly soft, quirky, affectionate, and sweet as can be. He greets his people with head-butts and adorable chirps everytime they enter the room, requesting a proper cuddle session to start each day.
Flea had a rough start — he came to the county shelter as a stray kitten with a badly damaged eye, went through surgery to have it removed, and bounced back beautifully. Then, just when we thought he was ready for adoption, he was diagnosed with FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis), a condition that used to be a death sentence for cats but is now treatable. He was pulled from the shelter for the long course of treatment and has now been considered cured for several months. He’s healthy, happy, and ready to spread his love in a real home.
See Marcy’s post for more information about Flea’s bonded sister.

Read more about Marcy!
Marcy & Flea are an almost 1 year old bonded brother & sister duo in foster care looking for their forever home.
Marcy is a beautiful young tuxedo cat with a heart full of love for the right people. She is quite wary of, well, the world and is looking for a patient, cat-experienced adopter with a quiet home. While she dashes and hides when approached by new people, Marcy is genuinely affectionate and enjoys lots of pets and playtime once she feels safe with you. If you’re the type of person who loves building a relationship with a cat and would appreciate the reward of watching a scared soul relax, open up, and blossom into her true self, Marcy could be a perfect companion for you.
Marcy comes a part of a package with her bonded brother, Flea. Adopting them together will give her more confidence and the comfort of her best friend by her side as she transitions into a new home.
See Flea’s post for more information about Marcy’s bonded brother.

Bento Box
Neutered Male

Domestic Shorthair
Read more about Bento Box!
Bento is an incredibly sweet cat and a total lap cat. He loves cuddling, getting attention, and goes crazy for treats. He has a very affectionate personality and would make a wonderful companion for someone who can give him the love and attention he deserves.
We are unfortunately looking to rehome him because we recently welcomed a new baby into our family, and we can no longer give Bento the time and attention he needs. Due to our family situation, Bento Box has been showing signs of stress and we think another home could be a better fit.
He is current on all of his vaccinations and has been going to his yearly vet checkups.
We want to make sure he goes to a caring, responsible home.

Read more about Oscar!
Oscar needs a home where he can be outdoors. He’d be an ideal barn cat, as he is a good mouser and can take care of himself. He’s not great around kids. He can be affectionate, though he is not a lap cat. I cannot provide for him any longer due to a health issue.

Issa
Spayed Female

Husky/Samoyed/Chihuahua
Read more about Issa!
I’m rehoming Issa because I’ve been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. She is a beloved dog, and this is one of the hardest decisions I’ve had to make. My hope is that she gets to keep living a good, full life.
Issa is fully vaccinated, crate trained, and leash trained, and she knows a lot of commands. She’s good with kids and does well at daycare and the dog beach. She gets along with other dogs, though she needs a slow introduction to feel comfortable.
She was found as a stray puppy in Mexico at just 9 weeks old.
Issa comes with all her paperwork, supplies and current pet insurance.
Looking for someone kind, responsible, and active, who can give Issa the time she needs to feel safe and settled.

Domestic Longhair
Read more about Minouche!
Meet Minouche, a gentle 13-year-old sweetheart looking for her next chapter. She is spayed, in wonderful health, and enjoys the best of both worlds as an indoor/outdoor cat who loves exploring nature as much as curling up on a warm lap.
While she can be a bit shy at first, once Minouche warms up to you, her affectionate side truly shines—she is a total cuddle bug who will happily shower you with purrs and affection.
Her current owner is retiring and returning home to France, and out of deep love for Minouche, wants to spare her the stress of a demanding 16+ hour international journey. We are determined to find her a direct, loving home to ensure she stays safe and avoids the stress of a shelter environment.
Age: 13 years young (in great health!)
Spayed: Yes
Lifestyle: Indoor/Outdoor
Personality: Shy initially, deeply affectionate and sweet once comfortable
Rehoming Fee: Applies to help ensure she goes to a safe, committed home

Beans
Neutered Male
5 years
Domestic Shorthair
Read more about Beans!
Beans is an incredibly sweet, affectionate, and goofy 5 yr old male cat. He is a big cat (17 lbs!) with a really strong personality. He is incredibly loving and gets very attached to his owners. He will try to be around you often, sleep with you at night, and purr like a lawnmower when you wake up in the morning. He loves to flop over on your feet and get belly rubs, and he will give you kisses (by ramming his face against yours) if you put your face next to his.
Beans is relatively high-energy when he’s not napping, and would love to be in a home with people who can give him lots of attention and play with him regularly. He does best with stability, a routine, and lots of attention, so he would be happiest with someone who works from home or is around often.
He has been indoors-only for his whole life (besides when he was a stray), but he is harness-trained and absolutely loves going for walks. He would do really well in a place with outdoor space, a balcony, or access to nature nearby. He is scared of busy roads, so a quieter neighborhood or home with a quiet green space nearby would be perfect for him.
He is a very healthy cat but did have a urinary stone two years ago, so he is on a prescription urinary care wet food diet. There have been no recurrences since then. He is neutered, up to date on all vaccines, and has received regular veterinary care throughout his life.
Why I’m rehoming Beans: I adopted him with another cat about 5 years ago, and they were great friends for a while but unfortunately they have stopped getting along. Beans is much larger than my other cat and plays too rough, so she has become very anxious with him around. I have tried everything over the past year, but it seems like they would both be happier as the only cat in a household. Because of this, I think Beans would do best if he is the only cat in your house.
I’ve created an album with a few more photos and videos of Beans here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1INiHi1WCiytiJTAfutmOsbGMoyQN6YQ6?usp=sharing
Please reach out to me if you are interested in meeting him!

Gigi
Spayed Female
3.5 year
Rat Terrier/Chihuahua
Read more about Gigi!
Gigi is an incredibly loving, happy, energetic little girl. She loves walks, running, playing, and will do anything for a treat! She’s great with other dogs and would be especially happy in a home with another playful dog who wants a companion to run, wrestle, and play with to her heart’s content.
She has never shown any aggression and is truly such a sweet dog. She’d be best suited with an active person/family or a home with another energetic dog who can be her built-in best friend. She is potty trained and knows some basic commands.
We really want to find the right fit for her, somewhere she’ll get lots of love, exercise, attention.
If you think Gigi might be a good fit for you or someone you know, please send me a message and tell me a little about yourself and your home! Happy to answer any questions about her or arrange a time to meet her.

Parker is a high energy boy. He eas born blind which brings an added set of patience. He’s sweet with cats and other female dogs. He does play a bit aggressively. I wouldn’t recommend him with children because of his blindness He doesn’t always know what he’s nipping at while playing. He is skidish with new people so it would take patience. He love to be active, walks, hikes, the beach!! It has become a dangerous situation with my 1 year old. Please help me re-home this sweet boy!

Read more about Ashlyn!
Ashlyn is spayed, housebroken, crate trained, wonderful with dogs, cats, and children, and travels well.
To be transparent and inform you about the care she requires, Ashlyn’s current medications are phenobarbital and zonisamide 2x a day, morning and night at your time preference that will work for you. Medications cost 300$ a year ablood work a 1000$. With pet insurance, 0$ after meeting deductible. Ashlyn’s seizures are happening every 10 days, mild, 30 seconds long and bounces out of them gracefully. She takes her medicine as pill format like a champ and treats are appreciated.
She enjoys grooming herself, but fine with others grooming her. She has seen a neurologist at Sage in Campbell and visits Dr. Miller, family vet in Soquel. I will provide all copies of her veterinary records and neurologist notes will be provided as she does require an MRI to confirm she has epilepsy.
All her belongings will go with her, no need to buy anything. Will care for until we find the right fit.

Manon
Spayed Female
1 year
Domestic Shorthair
Read more about Manon!
Manon is literally the perfect cat. She is very sweet and loving toward people. She is constantly purring/trilling/chirping and she loooooves to play. She likes to cuddle and always wants to be pet. She always uses the litter box and doesn’t scratch furniture. She is microchipped, spayed, and up to date on all of her vaccines. She is a pretty small girl at only 9lbs but full of personality.
She needs to be in a home with no other pets. I have had her since she was 3 months old, after she turned 1 her behavior toward my other cat changed and they started getting into fights. At first it was very sporadic but it’s progressed to the point where I need to keep them completely separated from each other. I have been working with the vet and tried literally everything I could possibly do to try and restore harmony but it’s become clear at this point she needs her own space. I am absolutely devastated to lose her, but I’m hoping someone else will be able to give her the home she needs.
