My story

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

This lovable oddball of a cat was rescued at the end of 2023 with his sister Willie Jack and his brother Big. They were bottle raised, and so are incredibly friendly and social. And weird! Cheese's idiosyncracies include being a word class splooter, flopping on his back and rolling around while maintaining eye contact, and zooming around at a thousand miles per hour. But he's also a really dedicated lap cat, and loves nothing more than cuddling up in the evening.

We all know that it's common to give cats nicknames, and sometimes you might call them by their nickname so often it ends up replacing their actual name and they respond to it more actively. Is this the case with Cheese, and is his nickname and the name he responds to "Stinky Cheese"? Why yes it is. Don't blame his foster parents, he really is a little stinker. But he's a stinker who is so endearing he will leave an indelible mark on your heart and be an absolute joy in your home.

Stinky Cheese gets along great with cats and dogs and would love to be adopted to a home with one, or together with one of his siblings. If you're interested in learning more or in meeting him, drop a line to his foster dad at ben@kittenrescue.org. We'll see what nickname Stinky Cheese has given that guy!

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.
