Rousey’s Story! A Special Kitty Finds Forever!
Beautiful black and white girl, shelter name was Rhumba, was picked up from the streets of Rialto in March 2016 and taken to the Devore Animal Shelter. She was originally listed as Rescue Only for Behavior but then quickly changed to Friendly/Adoptable once they saw how sweet she was. Unfortunately, being locked in a kennel stressed Rhumba out to the point that she began attacking her own tail, not playfully but with real anger. The shelter changed her status back to Rescue Only and put her on the list to euthanize.
I had visited Rhumba at the shelter twice while taking videos of the cats and really fell for her. I was already overflowing with foster and personal cats at home, though, so I waited to see who would rescue her. But as the day went on, I realized I would just have to make it work or she would die. Nell, a fellow foster mom, offered to take Rhumba to the vet and get her through the ISO period. Safe at Nell’s house, she completely stopped attacking her tail.
Once she got to my house and my husband and I got to know her better we decided to change her name to Rousey. She proved to be one of the easiest going fosters I’d ever had. As cute and sweet as she is, I never expected to be fostering her for almost 2 years! Rousey attended many adoption events and stayed at the Petsmart adoption center in Santa Ana several times in hopes of finding her forever home. When KD secured another adoption center, this one at the Petco in Santee, I signed Rousey up for a stay in November. And that’s where she found her happily ever after!
One of the Petco employees, Jenn, fell in love with her! Rousey is now named Moo-Moo and is getting all the love and attention that she always wanted and deserved. She is an only kitty but has a couple lizards and hamsters and fish to entertain her when her mom is at work. And when her mom is at home, she gets lots of snuggles!
I am so happy to be a part of the Kitty Devore Rescue team where I get to help wonderful kitties like Rhumba/Rousey/Moo-Moo find their happily ever afters!
Rosellyn’s Plea: I Want To Be Loved
Our foster momma kitty, Rosellyn, is hoping to find her forever home.
Rosellyn was two years old and pregnant when our rescue saved her from the high kill shelter in Devore April 2017. She raised 5 adorable kittens in our home, all since adopted, and she is still waiting for a forever friend to find her and fall in love.
She is a special and sweet companion kitty, who is very playful with a strong hunting instinct, and is super soft. Her calico coat is gorgeous, with her “torbie” markings, aka patched tabby. Plus, she has an inviting white belly. Adding to her beguile are her eyes, slightly different in hue, one gold, and one approaching pumpkin. As you stare into her eyes to decipher the difference, you are sure to fall in love!
This girl gets along well with other friendly kitties, especially males. (We have noticed. ) She doesn’t hide from children visitors and allows their gentle attention. She hasn’t had opportunity to make any dog friends in our house but she is likely to make friends easily with a friendly and gentle pup.

Meet Gene Autry
Meet Gene Autry
Hi y'all! My name’s Gene Autry! Thanks for taking a gander at my adoption profile! I have the fierce looks of a tough guy, but I’m really just a total softy…my foster ma’ calls me Gene Bean. Kitty Devore rescued me and my brother like damsels in distress from Devore Shelter in July, 2017 when we were just 4 months old. Now me and my brother, Roy Rogers, have gotten over our kitty colds and we’re ready to be adopted!
Everyone that meets me and Roy is always surprised by how much we both purr. It’s just in my nature to be happy as a tick on a hound dog, and I purr when I’m happy, so that means I purr all the time! And boy do I like to cuddle! Any time my foster ma’ sits down to relax, I have to go get some love from her. If it were up to me, she’d never sleep so she could always pet me and rub my belly. And if I’m not getting enough attention, I’ll rub my face all over my foster ma and flop down on top of her to make her pay attention to me! Now when I’m not cuddling, I’m usually cavorting with my brother, Roy. We like to rumble and tumble with each other and do things like chase stuffed mice or try to catch the laser light. I get along great with all the other foster kittens and the big cats. The dog is also pretty nice to me, so I’m okay with her too!
I’ve been to see the doctor so I’m all caught up on my vaccinations and they said I don’t have any diseases like FIV or FeLV. I’ve also been neutered and microchipped. So I’m pretty much ready to be adopted at any time! It would just make me sing a happy tune if me and Roy could find a forever home! We’re a bonded pair and must be adopted together. Won’t you consider adopting us today?

Meet Drystan!
Meet Drystan
Hi there! My name is Drystan, and I’m an adorable fluffy orange and white tabby. My foster mom says I feel like a bunny rabbit because my fur is so silky soft, but I’m definitely a cat! I’m not a really big boy, but my paws are pretty big, so I might grow up to be a big, strong cat. I like that- I’ll be able to pin my furry friends down when we wrestle and play!
I get along really well with all of my foster siblings; even the dog as long as she’s nice to me! I’m kind of a shy guy, so sometimes it can take me a little longer to be comfortable in new situations or when meeting new people. But don’t worry! Once I feel comfortable I’m really a sweet kitty. My brother, Murry, helps me feel not so overwhelmed and makes me more comfortable around things I’m a little unsure about! He’s my best friend and we’re a bonded pair so we must be adopted together. I like to play with my brother and chase toy mice or that crazy red laser light! My mission in life is to capture that red light! Even though I’m kind of shy, I like to be where all the action is, just sometimes I don’t want to be in the thick of it. When I’m feeling more social, I like to get pets and to snuggle too…and other times I like to be independent and spend some time relaxing by myself for a little bit.
Murry and I were rescued from Devore Shelter in June, 2017 when we were just 3 months old. Since then, we’ve seen the cat Doctor to be neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. I also tested negative for FIV/FeLV. I really like my foster mom’s house, but it would be great to find a family that would like to love me and Murry forever and ever. Maybe that will be you!

Meet Baby G
Meet BabyG
BabyG is approximately 6 months old and is a black and white short haired kitty with a very cute face. She was rescued in San Bernadino County along with her mom, Maybelline, and have both been in foster care for the last 5 months living with their human foster mom and dad.
BabyG is very playful with her mom and like most kittens feels very safe in knowing her mommy is always just a few steps away guarding her as well as teaching her the ways of social skills and independence. Although like most youngsters her curiosity is continually growing and while she was once very shy and skittish around humans, she is beginning to grow more comfortable in allowing her foster parents to rub her neck and pet her.
She loves the attention she gets from her foster parents when they play with her and her kitty toys — she may very well enjoy other cats too since she roughhouses with her mom quite a bit. She’s still on the shy side around strangers and children and doesn’t feel comfortable being handled which could be the result of their abandonment and tough beginning living on the streets. However in the few months they’ve been in foster care they’ve grown very content and feel safe in their environment and have adjusted quite well.
BabyG is ready to explore the outside world and start her own adventure with a forever family in a new home. She would be a lively addition to any family and I believe has the temperament to adjust and adapt to any situation.
If you’re interested in adopting her mom, Maybelline, you would have a very well behaved sweet pair of kitties that enjoy each other and play a lot and provide a lot of fun and entertainment.

Cat Rescue Ed 101: What You Say?
CAT RESCUE ED 101 - WHAT YOU SAY?
To a cat, “meow” is an all-purpose word. They say “meow” as a greeting (“Hey, how ya doin’?), a command (“I want up, I want down, more food now”), an objection (“Touch me at your own risk”), or an announcement (“Here’s your mouse”). Some people have watched their cats walking around the house meowing to themselves… just like some people talk to themselves.
Chirps and trills are how a mother cat tells her kittens to follow her. Aimed at you, it probably means your cat wants you to follow him, usually to his food bowl. If you have more than one cat, you’ll often hear them converse with each other this way.
Purring is a sign of contentment (usually). Cats purr whenever they’re happy, even while they’re eating. Sometimes, however, a cat may purr when she’s anxious or sick, using her purr to comfort herself, like a child sucking his thumb.
Growling, hissing, or spitting indicate a cat who is annoyed, frightened, angry, or aggressive. Leave this cat alone.
A yowl or howl (they sound like loud, drawn-out meows) tells you your cat is in some kind of distress - stuck in a closet, looking for you or in pain. Find your cat if he’s making this noise. However, in unneutered and unspayed cats, these sounds are part of mating behavior. If your cat is elderly, he may be suffering from a cognitive disorder (dementia) and may howl because he’s disoriented.
Chattering, chittering, or twittering are the noises your cat makes when she’s sitting in the window watching birds or squirrels. One of KD’s president’s cats also does it any time she or her husband sneezes in addition to watching the nature show on “Kitty TV” at their large living room window. Some experts think that this is an exaggeration of the “killing bite,” when a cat grabs her prey by the neck and works her teeth through the bones to snap them. It’s also speculated that the chattering is a sound made out of frustration that they can’t get to the prey they see.
A black cat crossing your path is actually good luck on account of you get to see a cat
