Story
Hi my name is Vader, I am a neutered male, less than 3 years young. I was rescued after a nice Noah’s Bark volunteer heard that me and my siblings were on our way to get dumped in the canyons to be coyote food. My siblings have all been adopted. Now it is my turn to find a furever home. I love playing, I like toys like small stuffed mice and small soccer balls. I have medium length fur with some extra poof near my tail. I am very sweet but take a little while to warm up to new people. I am used to being in a busy home with other cats and dogs, I love being around my cat friends and like sleeping in quiet corners of the house. I also love to sit at the top of the cat tree and observe my surroundings. I would do best in a home with another cat to hang out with. I am ready for a home of my own where I will be loved forever.Our adoptions are restricted to residents within 30 miles of the South Bay area of Los Angeles.

Story
* Available in Shelter for Meet & Greet * Joji (formerly Joe) is a sensitive, intelligent tuxedo boy who has come a long way since his outdoor days. Believed to be around 7 years old, he’s left street life behind and is learning to fully enjoy the comfort and predictability of indoor living. Joji can be shy with new people, but once he trusts you, he becomes an affectionate companion. He loves sunny naps, curling up beside you, and settling into your lap or on your chest for snuggles. Chin and neck scritches are his favorite, and he’s a total gentleman at mealtime — especially when meat is involved. He’s smart and food-motivated, knows how to sit and jump on cue, and enjoys quiet playtime with wand toys, kickers, and small solo toys. Joji thrives in a calm, adult-only home and does best as the only pet. Sudden movements can startle him, and he communicates with a warning nibble when overstimulated, but he’s made huge progress learning to feel safe. With patience and consistency, he blossoms into a loyal, loving shadow who prefers to stay close by. If you appreciate a thoughtful, gentle cat who bonds deeply and rewards kindness with quiet devotion, Joji may be the perfect match.January 20, 2026, 10:12 am

Story
Meet Thelma & Louise, a bonded sister duo looking for their forever home together. This beautiful pair was rescued when they were around 12 weeks of age from the USC area by a wonderful person who nurtured them and kept them safe. They have been thriving ever since. Thelma is a gorgeous silver girl with striking tabby markings. She can be a bit cautious at first, but once she feels comfortable, she becomes a loyal little companion who enjoys sitting close to her people. Louise, with her shiny black coat and stunning golden eyes, is more of a lap cat and happily settles in for cuddles. They truly complement each other and are a bonded pair, so they are looking for a home where they can be adopted together. These sweet girls enjoy playtime, cozy cuddle sessions, and spending time with their human companions. Thelma and Louise are about 6 months old and healthy thanks to the excellent care of their foster mom. They are spayed, have received their FVRCP and Rabies vaccinations, and will be microchipped soon. They are ready to be your cuddle bugs. Are you ready for them? For more information or to schedule a meet and greet, please contact Donna at DonnaJensen75@gmail.com. They are currently living in the Playa Vista area.January 29, 2026, 1:32 pm

Story
* In Foster Care * Meet & Greets by appointment. * Please submit an application online and we’ll call to schedule! *  The first thing most people notice about Elton is his very handsome face and impressive size. The second thing they notice is his enthusiasm for people. Elton is an affectionate, social boy who loves greeting his humans, rubbing up for attention, and soaking in scratches and brushing sessions. When he’s happy, he’s known to drool a little and will happily put his face right in yours to groom you if he really likes you. Elton is food and attention motivated and thrives on routine. Once he’s had his fill of hellos, he’s usually ready to relax by playing with his chew or kicker toys, making biscuits on a soft surface, or settling near his person. He enjoys interactive play, bird watching, and being close to his humans throughout the day. Elton does best with people who understand feline body language and are comfortable giving him space when he’s had enough interaction. He can be a bit overly enthusiastic at times and benefits from a calm, predictable home where his cues are respected. He will gently let you know when he’s done being touched, and honoring those signals is key to keeping everyone happy. He has a fondness for plastic bags and similar items, so those should be kept out of reach. Elton is currently on daily anti-anxiety medication, which he takes easily with treats, and it has helped him stay more regulated alongside consistent routines. Elton may do well with another cat, but he is also perfectly happy soaking up human attention on his own. A quieter home without young children would be ideal for him. If you’re an experienced cat person looking for a big, affectionate companion with a strong personality and a lot of love to give, Elton may be a wonderful match!January 20, 2026, 10:12 am

He communicates with adorable chirps and rewards your affection with constant purrs. Despite his mellow nature, he also has a playful side that’s sure to bring a smile to your face. Diagnosed with kidney disease, Sonny has stable on a special diet for over a year, and his spirit remains strong. He’s looking for a caring home where he can enjoy the simple pleasures of companionship, playtime, and cozy naps. If you’re searching for a loyal, gentle companion, Sonny is ready to bring love and warmth into your life. Will you be the one to give him the forever home he deserves?January 20, 2026, 10:12 am

Story
Sparky is a sweet, thoughtful young tabby who takes her time with new experiences but warms up nicely once she feels comfortable. With her white chest and white toes, she has a gentle presence and an endearing, affectionate nature. Once she’s out, Sparky is playful, loving, and enjoys attention. Sparky was rescued in late November from a feral colony in Hawthorne and was believed to have been abandoned due to her friendliness and ease of handling. In the shelter, she has been steady and observant during the transition, showing a calm, adaptable temperament. Like many young cats adjusting to change, Sparky has had a few minor transition-related disagreements, which are typical and continue to improve with routine and familiarity. Sparky would thrive in a home that appreciates a gentle cat who blossoms with patience and consistency.February 9, 2026, 2:54 pm
