About Nala

Meet Nala, a gray tabby cat whose world recently changed forever. She was rescued from a devastating house fire, and while she made it out safe, her owner suffered severe burns and can no longer care for her. Now Nala finds herself confused and heartbroken, missing the only home she’s ever known. Despite the disruption, Nala still shows her true nature—independent, loyal, and deeply affectionate once she decides you are her person. She spends her days curled up wherever she feels safest, but as soon as she trusts you, she’s all in for lap time and nighttime snuggles. Nala is known to be protective and vocal—her family says she always leapt to defend her humans if she sensed anyone was upset. Though she might hide and shiver while transitioning, underneath it all she craves connection and closeness. At three years old, Nala is still young, spayed, and her vaccinations are up to date. Her gentle, calm temperament makes her a comforting companion. Currently in Cerritos, CA, Nala can’t remain with her temporary family due to their dog, so she needs a new home where she can heal and learn to trust again. If you’re patient and looking for a quietly loyal friend, Nala has a reservoir of love to offer. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
