Browse our available cats online or in-person. If you find a cat that interests you, we highly recommend filling out an adoption application to make the process more seamless — though it isn’t required prior to visiting.
Adopt · La Jolla, CA
Every adoptable cat and kitten in our rescue shelter was saved from euthanasia at local shelters. They are micro-chipped, dewormed, spayed/neutered, FeLV/FIV tested if over 6 months old, given a fecal PCR if over 6 months, and are up to date on FVRCP vaccinations. All you have to do is love them.
MEOW! ADOPT ME!
