Meet Callie! 💕🐾

Callie is a playful little firecracker who loves being around people and always wants to be part of whatever you’re doing. She has tons of kitten energy and can turn just about anything into a game!

Right now, Callie is also going through her adorable little “everything must be bitten” phase 😂 Legs, feet, you name it! Her foster family is keeping her busy with plenty of toys to help redirect all that playful energy.

If you’re looking for a fun, social, people-loving kitten who will keep you laughing and entertained, Callie may be your girl! 🐱💗 ❤️

Meet Rosie 🌹!

Sometimes, the cats we are meant to save make the decision for us. Rosie was discovered during a TNR session at an auto repair shop, but there was no trapping required for this little girl. She walked right up to me, jumped into my arms, and happily purred the entire way back to my car. It was pretty clear Rosie was ready to leave life on the streets behind.

Now safe in foster care, Rosie has proven to be one of the sweetest, friendliest kittens you could ever meet. She loves everyone, including children, and will happily curl up in her foster’s arms and fall fast asleep. She is easygoing, affectionate, and seems completely unfazed by just about anything.

Maybe that is because Rosie experienced so much while living outside. Whatever the reason, one thing is certain: she will never have to fight for survival again.

Rosie is ready for a forever family where the only thing she has to worry about is whose arms she is going to fall asleep in next.

Our 2nd Annual Kitten Yoga was a HUGE success! 🧘‍♀️🐱💕

Today’s class was completely SOLD OUT, and we could not have asked for a better turnout! Our kittens soaked up all the attention, interrupted plenty of yoga poses, and most importantly several found their forever homes! 🏡🐾

We were also so excited to have so many people interested in becoming fosters. Every new foster home means we can say YES to another cat or kitten who needs us. ❤️

A HUGE thank you to YogaSix Long Beach for once again opening your doors and hosting this special event, and an extra special shoutout to Yoga with Sarah Luree , my absolute favorite yoga teacher, for generously donating her time today to teach our class. We appreciate you both so much for supporting our rescue and helping us save more lives! 🧘‍♀️🐾

And thank you to everyone who came out, supported our rescue, loved on our kittens, and made our second annual Kitten Yoga such an incredible success.

We are already looking forward to next year when we can do it all again! 🐱💕 ❤️

Meet Cherry Sue! 🍒

Cherry Sue is a resilient little girl who was found living outdoors in Long Beach. Even while outside, she loved seeking out attention, rubbing up against her caretaker and asking for pets whenever she could.

Since being rescued, Cherry Sue has fully embraced indoor life! She loves sunbathing in the window, spending time with her foster mom’s cat, and snoozing on the desk while her foster mom works. If you work from home, Cherry Sue would make the perfect little office assistant, happily keeping you company throughout the day.

Sweet, social, and ready to leave her outdoor days behind, Cherry Sue is looking for a forever home where she can soak up all the love and sunshine she deserves.

Meet Nutter Butter 🥜!

Nutter Butter is the true queen of her litter. Once an indoor cat, she was abandoned after becoming pregnant and has been through more than any cat should have to endure. But she never let it dim her spirit.

This incredible mama gave birth to and cared for EIGHT adorable babies, making her a true champion! Through it all, Nutter Butter has remained incredibly sweet, social, and trusting of people.

She is confident, outgoing, and always excited to meet someone new. She happily soaks up all the love and attention you are willing to give her, especially if you happen to have a tasty snack in hand!

After everything she has been through, Nutter Butter deserves a forever home where she can finally be the one who is loved and cared for.

Have you ever wanted to adopt the cutest little mush panda from the streets? MEET LEO from LAX✈️

Leo was born at a park & ride at LAX to a feral mama (now fixed, see last slide for how it started). A Good Samaritan saw Leo shivering behind a piece of wood, a lone survivor of a remaining litter that died in a car engine. Leo was kept alive by a homeless individual who fed him kibble on the sidewalk every night, until Leo got a new chance at life.

Leo is a a burst of energy, a ray of sunshine, and a ball of cuteness sweet baby boy energy. He loves to cuddle and watch TV in your lap. He loves to slow blink and give you kisses on your nose. He loves love, and he’s the sweetest boy around.

Leo is 8 weeks old, FIV/FELV negative, flea treated, dewormed, microchipped, and soon to be fixed. Leo must be adopted into a home with another cat. Ready for this handsome boy to land into your home? Apply now! ❤️
