Persian & Himalayan Cat Rescue of Northern California


It’s still a busy summer around here. Besides the five cats we now have in long-term foster/hospice, we’ve got such an adorable cat called Tofu, who needs a home now due to losing his beloved person. Before you scroll to see him, check out our friend Huxley here…

From rags to riches. About a month ago, Huxley was found wandering the streets in a very bedraggled state. Through the kindness of strangers, he made his way into foster care with our friends at Helping Persian Cats in LA. As the vet bills to restore his health climbed into the $$thousands, we agreed to contribute to his care. It was SO worth it! Fast forward to now. Huxley is now in a forever home with a lady who reports that he is the best cat, and is adapting to comfort quite quickly! It’s as if he was used to it all along, but then found himself in a real bind – if only he could tell us. Anyway, check out his new situation here…
