Rescue FAQs

Kitten Rescue Life is a specialized kitten rescue serving Southern California, focused exclusively on neonatal, orphaned, medical, and special-needs kittens. Led by an experienced team of fosters and volunteers, we provide intensive nurturing, medical care, and socialization during their most critical stages.
Our goal is to save the kittens who would have no options elsewhere and match them with adopters who will love them for a lifetime.
We focus on rescuing local animals in need, but we try to help out whenever and wherever we can. We invite any potential adopters to apply, regardless of your location. Our most important goal is finding the right homes even if that means it's outside our city.

Adoption steps

  1. Submit Application
    1. Our adoption questionnaire on our website is the first step to ensuring we find the perfect pet for you!
  2. Interview
    1. We will have one or more phone coversations, depending on if the animal is ready for adoption or available for pre-adoption only.
  3. Meet the Pet
    1. To make sure you end up with the best pet for you, we can arrange a meet and greet.
  4. Approve Application
    1. If your app looks good, your interview goes well, and the interaction goes smoothly, you'll be approved for adoption.
  5. Sign Adoption Contract
    1. Once the pet is ready to come home you'll be able to complete the adoption with a contract and payment.
  6. Pay Fee
    1. Almost there! Once your contract is signed and the adoptinon fee is paid you can take your new best friend home.
  7. Take the Pet Home
    1. Now it's time for you to take your new pet home!

Additional adoption info

We like to develop a close relationship with our adopters. Our rescue kittens are like family to us, and so are you! We love getting updates and photos as they grow.
