I am at Oakland Animal Services in kennel Cat Adoption:25

Some people are looking for kittens who are instantly outgoing. Others are looking for something even more special—the chance to help shy kittens discover that the world is a safe place. If you're that person, we'd love for you to meet Aster and Marigold. These gorgeous 4-month-old bonded sisters are a rare pair of female orange kittens, with warm peachy tabby coats, bright white markings, and sweet expressions that are impossible not to love. Marigold is already discovering that people are wonderful, happily purring for gentle head scratches and Churu treats. Aster is a little more reserved, but every visit brings another small victory as she ventures out, accepts pets, and lets her tiny purr shine through. Their journey is just beginning, and they're looking for someone to show them the joys of affection, treats, and play. Give these adorable sisters the chance to blossom in a safe, loving home—and watch their tiny purrs grow into a lifetime of love.

Adoption process

Thank you for considering adopting a shelter pet! There are two ways to adopt:
1. Visit our shelter (1101 29th Ave) Saturday or Sunday from 12-3pm, when we are open for adoptions.
2. Use our online process as described at www.oaklandanimalservices.org Adoptions are first-come-first-served. While we try our best to get back to everyone via our online process, sometimes it takes several days or a week or two, and the pet you are interested in may get adopted during our open adoption hours.

Please note that inquires submitted through this website about this pet may not receive an immediate response due to the large volume of inquires we receive. If you are interested in adopting this pet, please submit an adoption application to be considered.

Adoption requirements:
- You must be 18 years of age or older with a valid California driver’s license or other acceptable identification
- Never have had any cruelty convictions, animal control violations or broken any adoption contracts in the past
- Agree to and sign the “Statement of Adopter” on the adoption questionnaire which includes a waiver of liability
- Pay the adoption fees and applicable licensing fees. Fees include spay/neuter, vaccinations, and microchip
- All animals, including rabbits, must be spayed or neutered. If the pet you are interested in adopting is not yet spayed/neutered, a staff member will discuss next steps with you

Additional information for dog adopters:
- Other canines in the home must meet the new dog prior to adoption.
- Provide proof of home ownership or permission to have a dog from your landlord. We cannot hold the dog that you want to adopt while you try to meet this requirement.
- Agree to a home inspection if the dog is a large breed dog or dog that has been identified to need additional attention.
- Be aware of the Oakland and State Laws about dog ownership.

We do not place adoption holds on any animals.
