Kingston is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet This Week

He was abandoned.

Kingston is a 3-year-old, 13-pound, male, Domestic Short Hair cat with a Blue Cream and White Tabby coat.

Someone abandoned him and another cat in a crate at an animal shelter in Riverside County. Kingston was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through Friends of County Animal Shelters (FOCAS).

At the other shelter, Kingston lived with several other male cats. At Rancho Coastal Humane Society, he’s soft and relaxed. He can be shy in new situations. He gets along fine with every person and cat meets.
