My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Desmond is an active kitten who likes to play play play! He also loves to snuggle-perch right between your shoulder and chin and purr his quiet purr! He enjoys the company of other cats (although many of them find him to be a bit much) wants lots of cuddles every day and very much hates to be alone (so he will need a kitten friend for when humans aren't available). He would very much like to be adopted with his foster sister Lucy who is petite but likes to wrestle as hard as he does or one of his bigger easy going foster brothers: Brave or Softy. He's used to children and dogs. Desmond is would prefer a home with experienced cat people as he can be shy at times and an active kitten friend his size. He would enjoy a respectful child who would never chase or try to catch him. Although he is a super-duper cuddle bug he is very overwhelmed by giant humans when he's on the ground. He needs continued work building skills (like climbing a tower so he is eye-level with humans when he is feeling worried) and lots of positive experiences being touched while on the ground (and not chased!). He is very (very) food driven so we're confident that with time and getting larger he will be even more relaxed on the floor.

More about this rescue

Kitten Rescue is a non-profit, volunteer-run organization devoted to finding loving homes for unwanted, homeless cats and kittens. We rescue cats and kittens from the streets of Los Angeles and from City Shelter euthanasia. Since our start in 1997, we have grown into one of the largest, most well-respected animal welfare groups in LA.

Kitten Rescue volunteers adopt out over 2,000 cats and kittens into homes every year. We educate the public about responsible pet guardianship, how to care for kittens and cats, and the importance of spaying and neutering. Kitten Rescue makes educational material available via events, print, school presentations and here on our website. We also provide Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) assistance for communities in and around Los Angeles, and teach people how to manage and care for feral cat colonies.
