13th St. NAC Cat Rescue is a small but determined group of volunteers, lead by Joanne, serving the Northside area of San Jose since 2005 (officially).We are dedicated to improving the lives of feral and social cats and in controlling the population by the use of TNR. Trap-Neuter-Return is an effective, internationally recognized program by which cats are trapped, vaccinated, spayed or neutered and returned to their original location to be cared for. Kittens and cats that can be socialized are taken into foster care and are then put up for adoption.We are not based at a shelter or in one location on 13th Street. All of our animals are housed in foster homes. You can find us at different petfairs during the month or at various neighborhood functions. See Adoption Fairs/Events page.You can help our organization and the neighborhood by volunteering to trap cats and transporting them to the vet for vaccinations and neutering, fundraising, fostering cats temporarily in your home or even just donating to the cause.Under the 13th Street NAC (Northside Action Committee), 13th Street Cats is a 501c(3) nonprofit so your donations are tax deductible

Meet Apollo

This animal listing is a COURTESY LISTING - not a 13th St Cat Rescue animal. See information about whom to contact in bio THANK YOU. Apollo is a striking, tall cat with a presence that’s hard to miss. His good looks, confident attitude, and energetic personality will have you hooked from the moment you meet him. Apollo is unapologetically himself—he knows what he wants and isn’t shy about showing his appreciation for a good belly rub or head scratch as you get to know him. Though he’s in good health overall, Apollo does have a couple of medical conditions that require some extra care. He is FIV-positive, which means he has a weakened immune system, but with proper care, he can live a long and happy life. He gets along well with other cats after a gradual introduction and enjoys having feline friends. Apollo also has some kidney concerns, but these are being well-managed with a special diet and regular vet visits. Despite these issues, he’s thriving and has a lot of love to give! In addition to his affectionate nature, Apollo is curious and playful. Whether he’s chasing toys, exploring his environment, or figuring out how things work, he’s got an adventurous spirit that will keep you entertained. And his tiny meow? It’s his way of letting you know when it’s dinner time or when he’s ready for more affection. Apollo is used to being the “alpha,” so he prefers a slow introduction to other cats. Once he’s settled in, he’s easygoing and content to coexist with others—he just likes to keep things interesting! Fun fact: Apollo is one of the few cats who isn’t a fan of Churu treats. But don’t let that fool you—he has his own sweet ways of showing affection, like his love for crunchy cat vitamins! If you’re looking for a confident, playful, and loving companion with a big personality, Apollo is your guy. He’s ready to reward the right person with endless purrs, cuddles, and lots of fun. He’ll need someone who can give him the care he requires, but in return, he’ll offer you a lifetime of love and joy. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apollo can’t wait to meet you If you're interested in welcoming Apollo into your family, please reach out to the San Jose Woman’s Club at  [email protected]  for more details. His adoption fee is $50, which is a tax-deductible contribution to the San Jose Woman’s Club, and he will come with a special care package.

Adoption Process
To meet our rescued cats/kitten: we ask that you fill out an adoption application first. Once you submit an application, a volunteer will contact you. All of our kitties are in foster homes; some can be seen at the foster homes, or at an upcoming Adoption Fair. We ask for your understanding: We are an all-volunteer organization and many of us have full-time jobs outside of our volunteer activities; therefore, it may be a few days before someone can respond to your email. We always try to reply as soon as possible.The kitties are for adoption, not for sale. Adoption fee for kittens is $125 ($200 for two) to help cover some of our food and veterinary expenses. All cats and kittens are: vaccinated as appropriate for their age microchipped dewormed deflead tested for FELV (feline leukemia) / FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus) spayed/neutered prior to adoption We will ask you some questions about your home and we will be glad to answer any questions you may have. Adopting a kitty is a long-term commitment; the average life span for a kitty is 15-20 years. Most of our cats are in foster homes with other cats. They get lonely and bored without the company of their own kind, just like people. We try to place cats that enjoy the company of other cats in a home where there is feline companionship. But we do have many cats that would be happy to be the only cat in your life! Regardless of how an animal comes to us, we provide food, shelter, and medical care. The animals do not live in cages but in volunteer foster homes. We usually know the personalities of the cats and kittens we rescue, so we can tell you which cat or kitten(s) might be the best match for you and/or the feline companion you already have. http://www.13thstcats.org/info/adoption
