Adoptions/Fosters

We have been fortunate to be able to foster and rehome some very special animals. If you are interested in providing a forever home to any animal listed here currently available for adoption, please contact us by emailing KNNrescue@gmail.com.
Currently Available for Adoption

Aponi
Aponi is all black and so soft. She raised 3 kittens and continues to be an adoring mom. She loves spending time with other cats and is good around little dogs. She is closely bonded with her son, Teddy, so if you adopt Aponi we would like both her and Teddy adopted together. Aponi has been spayed, is up to date on all her vaccinations, and is microchipped. She is currently available for adoption!

Baby G
Baby G is a young Maine Coon cat who was born to a feral colony in Orinda. Baby G was noted to have an upper respiratory infection and was infested with fleas, weighing only 25 oz at intake. He was bathed, started on antibiotics, and bottle-fed around the clock. Baby G is open to being handled by people he knows but loves to remain independent or cuddling with another cat. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. He is available for adoption and would work great in a home with Teddy or another cat already in the home.

Bear and Buttercup
Bear and Buttercup were rescued from a wood pile (about to be taken to the dumps) near a local pool in Walnut Creek along with their sibling Boots! While Boots has been since adopted, we are fostering Bear and Buttercup still at the Sanctuary until they are ready to be spayed and neutered. They will be up for adoption very soon so we are taking inquiries! They are incredibly sweet and playful.

Thomas
Thomas was abandoned as a kitten with his mother, and 2 siblings. When he was found, Thomas couldn’t move his back legs. He was evaluated by UC Davis Neurology and they stated that he has no voluntary movements in his hind limbs and no sensation. We drain his bladder 3 times a day. Thomas is neutered and up to date on all vaccinations. He is up for adoption to the right home that can provide him with the care and love he deserves.

Cami
Cami is a female grey tabby cat. was trapped in September of 2021 with the plan for her to be a TNR (Trap/Neuter/Release) but the trapper was unable to find an appointment for her. We were asked to take her in and try and socialize her until a Spay/Neuter appointment became available. Due to the pandemic shutting so many vet clinics down we ended up keeping Cami longer than we had hoped. By the time we were able to get an appointment for her, months later, we felt it was too dangerous to release her back to a colony that might not remember her and in the middle of winter. She has come a long way with people but is still very shy. She would be a great barn cat and we would like her to be adopted with Stella. Cami is spayed and ready for adoption.

Vixen
Vixen is a female calico cat. She prefers to spend her time with cats and loves being up at night. She is spayed and up to date on all vaccinations. She is ready for adoption and would make a great barn cat alongside Harper and Milo.

Harper
Harper is a grey and white female tabby cat. She likes to play with toys with people and spend time with other cats while remaining independent. She is spayed and up to date on all vaccinations. She is ready for adoption and would make a great barn cat, especially alongside Vixen and Milo.

Milo
Milo is a shy, male black cat who is curious and prefers to come out at night. He is neutered and up to date on vaccinations. Milo is ready for adoption and would make a great barn cat alongside Harper and Vixen.

Stella
Stella is a shy tortoiseshell cat but loves human attention. She will rub up against people she is familiar with but doesn't like to be touched yet. We are working with her daily but she would be a great barn cat. She is spayed and ready for adoption, hopefully alongside Cami.

Forbes
Forbes is a female, domestic short-hair black cat. She is very shy but likes to play on cat towers and would make a great barn cat. She is spayed and up to date on vaccinations.

$125 for one cat, $175 for two

Past Fosters / Already Adopted

Honey
Honey is about 3-4 months old, kind and very soft. He was found in Oakland after he started wandering into an individual’s home. Honey is very social and purrs easily. He still needs to be spayed and receive the rest of her vaccinations, but he is looking for his loving home in the next few weeks after being neutered and finishing his vaccinations.

Teddy
Teddy is a young grey male cat who is super social, friendly and active. He loves playing with anyone and anything and he is looking for just the right home. After staying as a foster at the Sanctuary for a while, Teddy was adopted by a sweet couple and is excited for his new home.

Boots
Boots was found in a wood pile about to be taken to the dumps near a local pool in Walnut Creek along with his siblings. He has been adopted into an incredible loving home locally in Danville.

Edna Mae
Edna Mae was rescued from a local cat colony. She had previously been trapped and spayed. She is 4-5 years old and super friendly. She loves people and is good with most cats. Edna Mae has now found her home at a sanctuary in Clayton.

Harlan
Harlan is only 8 weeks old. She was hatched by a local school hatching project and one of the families took 2 in. Unfortunately, 1 was taken by a hawk and the family decided to find a home for this cutie where she could be safe! She’s going to be a fancy little girl and we are glad to have her as a new resident here at the Sanctuary.

Shelby, Oreo, Sierra,
Sandia, and Stella
Our 5 foster goats exploring the yard.

Oliver
Oliver is approximately 4 years old. We believe he is a KuneKune mix. He was found as a stray and was brought to our local animal shelter. He LOVES people and is super social. He is also appears to be good around other pigs. He has recently been adopted by an animal sanctuary in Napa.

Josie and Lulu
Meet Josie, a Tortoiseshell, and her sister, Lulu, who is a tabby. They were rescued from a property that had become a dumping place for unwanted cats. The owner of the property realized this was becoming an issue and contacted the local police for them to help guide him. The officer suggested shooting the kittens and cats. This man was taken back by the response and fortunately searched for someone to trap them and that's when we came in. They were semi-feral when they arrived here. They were spayed, immunizations were given, ear was tipped since at the time it was unclear if they would tame up. I'm glad to say they tamed up to be complete love bugs. They will always remain a bonded pair. We are proud to have adopted both Josie and Lulu as residents at the Sanctuary.

Meeko
Meeko was found as a stray in a backyard when he was only 4-5 weeks old. He has done great at the sanctuary and has now moved in with his new mom in San Francisco.

Dulce
Dulce was rescued from a colony of cats and adopted by a local sanctuary in Orinda.

Shelby
Shelby is 1 of the 5 goats we fostered that were rescued from a Petting Zoo on the Northern California coast. This petting zoo often becomes over populated since there is no attempt to keep the males away from the females. This petting zoo is big into goat yoga and prefers the smaller goats to bounce on people. Since Shelby and her sisters were getting older and bigger they were of no use to this owner. They were placed on a barren hillside with no shelter and given hay pellets to eat. All 5 goats we fostered were malnourished, had poor hair quality and had lice. They all are eating the grass hay they thrive on and have found their forever home at a sanctuary close by.

Lucy
Lucy was found after being abandoned by her mom at a week old. Lucy is quite a character, sassy, sweet, loving, confident and cuddly. Lucy has been welcomed with open arms by a family in San Francisco and has become best friends with their other cat.

Penelope
Penelope is a 2-3 year old very sweet Pygmy Goat. She has gone to her forever home at a sanctuary in Clayton.

Kawi
Kawi was found by a family who notified the Sanctuary. We trapped her and spayed and neutered her and her litter. Kawi is a sweet, calm cat that loves attention, especially that of her new family.

Marzipan and Kazzia
Marzipan and Kazzia are two dairy goats that came to us. They were both adopted by a wonderful owner in Northern California. Marzipan passed away after her cleft palate became infected, but Kazzia still remains in the loving care of her owner after coming in pregnant with two boy goats.

Harry
When we first found Harry, he needed a foster home for socialization as he grew up a little. Since then, he has found his forever home.

Lil Buddy
Buddy is a 7 month old male cat. He has been neutered and all his vaccinations are up to date. He is super sweet, loves to play. He has been adopted to his forever home in Manteca.

Wookie
Wookie was taken in after an owner’s passing and then adopted to a close friend of the Sanctuary. Unfortunately she is currently in liver failure but is thriving on a special diet living well loved in her new home with another dog friend.

Cora
Cora is a beautiful Great Pyrenees Mountain dog that we rescued at 6 months old. She had developed entropion, condition of the eyelids in which the eyelid margin rolls inward towards the eye, and the rancher wanted to have her killed. Luckily, a neighbor brought her to a rescue and we were able to adopt her from them. She was trained very harshly and we are working to recondition her in a loving way. She is a love bug!

Atlas
Atlas was trapped via a drop trap with her mom and littermates. She is shy but very sweet and social with other cats. She has found her forever home with a family in LA and is waiting for her pickup.

Holly
Holly was abandoned in an unknown location and was taken in by a local East Bay cat nonprofit. The nonprofit found a foster home for Holly but the foster’s other cats were aggressive, making it an inhospitable environment. Holly also seemed a bit sickly so the nonprofit did testing, only to discover she had renal failure, a heart murmur, and is blind. After communication with the nonprofit and original foster mom, we were able to orchestrate Holly to be taken in at a special needs home. Holly is now doing great in a new home of an individual that loves to take in blind elderly needing extra care, and she is receiving all the love and more!

Wally
Wally is a water Buffalo calf the Sanctuary will be fostering after he is discharged from UC Davis. He was rescued by Genevieve's Gentle Hearts Rescue when an employee at a local farm called to say that his mom had passed away and he wouldn't leave her body or take a bottle from the staff. At UC Davis, he hasn't been drinking enough milk to sustain himself so vets decided on a rumen transplant for the time being with hopes for him to rely on hay more than milk. The Sanctuary fostered him until he was ready for discharge and is now at his forever home at Critter Creek Farm Sanctuary in Florida.
