Narrative:

Approaching to land runway 19R at ccr. We were cleared for the visual approach. I was pilot flying. I was slightly high and fast on the approach. I was within 2 miles of the runway and fully configured to land. On very short final we received a TCAS RA and were advised to climb. I immediately followed the commands. By the time we were clear of the conflict I was not in a position to safely land. I called for and we began a go-around. We advised the tower that we were going around due to the traffic. The tower advised us to make right traffic. We climbed to 2500 feet (900 feet above pattern altitude) to avoid any GPWS warnings from the rising terrain west of the airport. We were established on the right downwind and were re-configuring to land when the tower seemed to get aggravated with us and ask us where we were going. We advised we were configuring to land on 19R. We began a turn toward a close in right base when we received a second RA this time on a helicopter that was aligning for another runway. Everything happened so fast with both RA's. I caught glimpses of both aircraft passing by and we were very close to both. The 1st closer than the second. We landed without further incident after clear of the second conflict. I was not asked to contact the tower so I didn't. The whole situation was very stressful and chaotic. Thank god for that TCAS. I was approached by a pilot in the FBO after we landed. He asked me if I was in the jet that just came in. He said to me 'that was not your fault'. I have no idea where the aircraft came from on the first RA. We were advised about traffic when we first checked in with tower but that traffic was well to our west. We were cleared to land on short final when the RA traffic crossed right in front of us. On the second RA; I think we were told about that traffic but it was so close we still got the RA. On the go-around we were flying a normal jet traffic pattern on a right downwind. While flying that pattern; the controller made a comment that we would have to cross the finals for the 14 runways. I was confused as to why he made that comment. He told us to fly right traffic. It seems obvious that we would have to cross those runways in order to land on 19R. He seemed annoyed about the traffic pattern that we were flying at one point asking us what our intentions were. At the time; we were concentrating on flying the airplane and avoiding all of the traffic that was showing on our TCAS.
