My story

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

Peanut is a bundle of loving energy. Although he’s 4 years old, he plays like a kitten--blazingly fast at chasing wand toys. With a face that’s part tabby, curly ears, and a smidge of “Grumpy Cat”, his looks are unique! Smart as heck, sweet and friendly, he wants to be with you, and get pets, head and tummy scratches.

Kitten Rescue saved Peanut from the LA shelter, where he had become blocked and couldn’t pee (a life-threatening situation). He had surgery to solve this and is fully healed, but his forever home needs to maintain him in a low-stress environment and monitor his bathroom habits to ensure he doesn’t get blocked again. He must be on wet (canned) food suitable for his condition to ensure his ongoing health. For these reasons, as well as his kitten-like qualities that require patience and dedicated time spent playing with him least twice a day, he would be best with experienced cat owners working from home or a family who’s willing to give him the care he needs.

In return, Peanut will greet you at the door, follow you around the house, and keep you company while you work. His curly ears and bob tail, as well as his giant feet and polydactyl toes will enchant you; and his easy-going manner and friendliness with everyone make him a crowd-pleaser.

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.
