My story

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

Styx, KRLA-A-87503, and Shermie were found separately exactly one month apart and have been together since November 13th 2025. They play all day together, groom each other, look out the window together, and sleep together.

Both are normal happy sweet kittens. They should go to a home without kids and to someone who will dote on them: provide them with sunlight to lay in, windows to look out of, fresh air, clean quiet home. They love wet food and share one can in the morning and night and have dry food all day. Both are big drinkers of water and there should be a few places for them to drink. They both love paper balls being flicked. I will give you all the toys I bought for them so they adjust better.

Shermie is faster than lightening, silent, and fearless. Shermie can get into a lot of trouble and get hurt if someone isn’t mindful. She has jumped into my toilet twice before I sat down, and I sat on her once. She had tried to jump in the oven. When I open the fridge door, her little arm will poke through. She has bolted out the front door a number of times. Shermie is the reason for the saying “curiosity killed the cat.” She has started to calm down. Shermie loves to cuddle. She will lay her face on your face or have her body stretched out beside yours. She loves getting and giving kisses and will grab your face for a kiss. She loves being in a swaddle while you go about your business. She does not cry in the car and might travel well.

If you ever want Shermie to come to you, simple run some water. She will sit outside the shower and go in afterward. She loves playing with a running sink. She also loves having a paper ball being flicked around and will bring it back to you.

Styx loves kisses and attentions. I’ll give Styx a little kissy and he’ll mew for another, then another, and another. Styx is a perfect kitty. A bouncing playful kitten. A classic good-natured cat. Loves to play and nap and cuddle. He will look at you lovingly and then come over to give kisses then go back to what he was doing (napping or playing). He loves to roast his all black body in the sun. If you talk to Styx he will talk back. Styx does not like being left alone. He also is scared of new people and travel. He will scream his head off in the carrier unless I take him out and hold him while driving – he gets better every trip. Styx’s purr is loud, like a pig rooting for truffles.

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.
