My story

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

Mozart is a cat's cat. He is exceedingly shy with new people and takes a long time to build trust and routine. Once he can depend on you, he will come to you for pets, affectionate, and attention—but that may take a long time and he so deserves a chance! Mozart would flourish in a small home with another young playful cat or kitten that can help him build confidence and make music.

But whoever heard of a silent composer? This quiet guy makes a concerto with his movement as an absolute play machine! Provide a toy or playmate and he will play all day! His absolute favorite is a stuffed cow which he tosses dramatically in the air and then carries around triumphantly.

So special on the inside, he is extra special on the outside in a way you wouldn't expect. He is a rare male calico! Most calicos are actually girls, but he has a couple of small black spots hidden in his soft ginger and white fur. Mozart is also FIV+ (not a big concern given proper care and attention) and his is extremely docile with other cats. An FIV+ cat will live the same lifespan as an FIV negative cat.

Come visit Mozart at our partner cat cafe in Pasadena, Tail Town Cats (http://www.tailtowncats.com) or contact gwendolyn@kittenrescue.org for more information.

Additional adoption info

We adopt animals to homes in the Los Angeles area and neighboring counties.

To help ensure that we place our cats in loving, responsible, committed homes, we have a screening process before you can adopt a pet from Kitten Rescue. We reserve the right to turn down potential adopters as we deem necessary. First, we ask that you complete our Adoption Questionnaire at kittenrescue.org/cat-adoption-form/. You can complete the form online or you may stop by a weekly adoption event to complete form in person. Second, a home visit or a home delivery of the cat or kitten is also required as part of our adoption process.

The Kitten Rescue adoption fee is $150 for a kitten or cat up to 10 years old, and $100 for each additional kitten or cat to the same household ($250 if you adopt a pair). Cats above 10 years old have a fee reduction of 50%, for an adoption fee of $75 each.

All of our cats have already been:
Spayed or neutered
Vaccinated – with at least one FVRCP vaccination
Treated for fleas
Dewormed
Tested for FeLV (Feline Leukemia) and FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus)
Microchipped

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.
