Founded: 2005 13th Street Cat Rescue is an all-volunteer animal rescue in San Jose, California. We are dedicated to improving the lives of homeless cats and controlling their population by the use of Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR). TNR is an internationally-recognized, humane and effective program for reducing the population of stray and feral cats.

In the past three years alone, TNR has contributed to a 25% reduction in the number of cats and kittens entering our local shelters. Our volunteers work with local vets and animal shelters to trap, vaccinate, spay or neuter cats, then return the animals to where they were found. Kittens and cats that can be socialized are taken into foster care by our volunteers and then put up for adoption. All donations to 13th Street Cats help provide food, supplies, spay/neuter, and medical care for homeless cats. For more information on how you can adopt, volunteer, or donate, please visit us at www.13thstcats.org. Thanks to our sponsors and community supporters including: Whole Foods--Blossom Hill, PetSmart, Petco, Andy's Pet Shop, Pet Awareness and Welfare Society for San Jose Animal Care and Services, and many other local veterinarians and local businesses.

🐱 Meet Jules! 💖

Jules may start off shy, but once he feels at home (usually about two weeks after arrival), he becomes a talkative, affectionate, and polite little boy. His endless chirps, murps, peeps, and purrs will keep you entertained!

Every morning, he’ll greet you with a purring, cuddly “Good morning,” gently waking you up. Jules loves snuggling his humans to sleep and chirping at you when bedtime nears—a perfect reminder for workaholics!

He thrives best in a quiet, gentle home with his best friend Tux. They’re polite, low-maintenance, and will happily keep each other company.

🐾 More About Jules:
• Not Good with Cats (Except Tux)
• Affectionate, snuggly, and sweet

🐱 Meet BJ! 💕

BJ is incredibly friendly, affectionate, and sweet. He lives for attention and absolutely adores rubs. While he enjoys playing with his wand toy, what he loves most is simply being near you. BJ will often lounge close by, soaking up your company.

🍞 One of his favorite activities? Making biscuits on you while purring contentedly, eventually dozing off right in your lap. And his headbutts? Impossibly cute! It’s just his way of showing how much he loves being around people.

🤗 BJ warms up quickly to new people and is looking for a forever home where he can share all his love (and expert biscuit-making skills).

📌 Important Note: BJ has tested positive for FIV.

😺 Meet Mimi! 🎪

Hey there, I’m Mimi! I’ve got a dynamite body and a personality that’s pure cat-titude! If you’re new to cats, I might be a handful, but for those who appreciate a true feline queen, I’m irresistible and full of charm.

Living with me is like having the whole petting zoo in one fabulous package! Who needs other cats or pets when you’ve got this one-kitty circus? I’m more than enough to keep you entertained!

🍲 I’m all about eating and playing, and I’m not shy about letting you know what I want. If you don’t get it, well, I might give you a little cat punch to make my point.

😸 Super Social: Whenever someone visits, you can bet I’ll be right there to say hello. My foster pals say I’m smart, my voice is adorable, and I’m just an all-around good kitty. I love my me-time, but with the right person, I’ll open up and snuggle. Trust me, I’ll make the purrfect partner!

🐾 More About Mimi:
• Good with Cats ✅
• Looking for a loving, forever home ❤️

🐱 Meet Freckles! 💕

This handsome gray, brown, and white kitty got his name from the adorable freckles around his nose, but he’s ready for a more grown-up name! Freckles may be shy with new friends, but he’s not a hider. Once he feels comfortable, he adores belly and chin rubs and will roll on his back just to get your attention.

He’s gentle, loving, and easy to pick up and handle — even enjoys being held like a baby! Freckles is also quite the conversationalist. He loves to talk and trill, joining in when you say hello and acknowledging your words with purrs and meows.

🎾 More About Freckles:
• Enjoys company more than being alone.
• Gentle and polite with other cats.
• Loves being petted and will purr with approval.
• Slowly learning to play with toys as his confidence grows.
• Smart, sweet, and looking for a patient, loving home.

🐒 Meet Monkey & Dot! 🐾

Monkey is a little daredevil who got his name because he loves to climb as high as possible to observe his world. Despite his adventurous side, he takes frequent breaks from play for his favorite quiet activity: belly rubs! His favorite toy? A blue wand he chases with pure joy! Monkey is looking for a forever home where he can explore his surroundings in his playful way.

🐈‍⬛ Dot, an adorable brown tabby-and-white teenager kitten, is quiet and observant. She loves her blue wand just as much as her brother but also enjoys watching the world from a safe perch. Dot is searching for a forever home where she can grow with a loving family who will be patient as she builds her confidence.

💙 Adopt them together or separately!
Monkey and Dot can be adopted together or separately, as long as there’s another animal companion in the home to keep them company.

🐱 Meet Miss Pickles – The Loveable Lap Queen! 💖

Miss Pickles is the ultimate loving champ with a heart of gold! This plus-sized gentle soul adores people and will always be by your side for cuddles and company.

✨ Her perfect day? Lots of petting sessions, playful wand toy chases, and keeping watch from the window. She’s a pro at showing off her scratching pad skills and, yes, she’s working on her physique! Despite being on a diet, she’s not fussy with her food and adjusting beautifully.

💫 Miss Pickles has her quirks—she’s super vocal, loves to knead and groom her humans, and adores batting at her trackball while lounging on her side.

📌 After her adopter moved into memory care, Miss Pickles adjusted beautifully to her foster home. Now, she’s ready to find her forever family to share her sweet, laid-back charm.

Could this adorable 7-year-old be your perfect snuggle buddy?

🐱 Meet Katara & Sokka: The Purrfect Pair! 🐱

✨ Katara is a sweet, gentle tuxedo fluffball who’s equal parts playful and reserved. She likes to take her time, observing the world with her bright eyes before diving into fun. Once she warms up, she’s all about cuddles, binge-watching Netflix by your side, and being your ride-or-die snuggle buddy.

💕 Sokka is the charming, adventurous brother who loves chasing toys, exploring with Katara, and pouncing on anything that moves. But after playtime? He’s the ultimate lap kitty, curling up and purring away. His sweetest trick? Wrapping his tail around you when you pick him up for a hug!

🐾 They share an unbreakable bond and must be adopted together. Their playful adventures and loving snuggles are double the joy and double the love. 💖

🐱 Gizmo’s Happy Tail! 🐱

Gizmo, our sweet and friendly boy who had a bit of a wobbly start due to fluid on the brain, has finally found his perfect home! 🏡❤️ He came to us at just 4 weeks old, and after 11 months of love and care, he met his forever human—Richard.

Richard didn’t just adopt Gizmo; he also found him the perfect companion, Annie! Now, this dynamic duo is known as Bonnie & Clyde—but unlike their namesakes, they’re all about love. 💕

Swipe to see Clyde (Gizmo) waiting on the cat tree for Bonnie (Annie) to come home after her spay surgery. Within days, they became inseparable! Now, the trio—Richard, Bonnie & Clyde—enjoy cozy naps together on the couch. 💤🐾

Mocha, the ragdoll, from early this year is thriving and being spoiled in her new home. Luna, as she is now known, has everything a cat can ask for - a cat tree, toys, bed, warm home, churus, and even a tunnel. Luna was a little sensitive about mats around her neck and when you are a ragdoll you need daily brushing, so she needed just the right home. And she found it!
