Our Wonderful Cats Wonder How Long it Takes?!

Angie will roll around for a belly rub.
We are always surprised and disappointed when visitors say they didn’t know we have cats and kittens on-site, available for adoption.
In fact, both a cat and dog have appeared in our logo and on the side of our building for decades! At any given time, many cats of different ages, sizes, personalities and colors are here to see, get to know, and take home if it’s a match! That includes numerous singles, siblings, friends, pairs, some who must be your only pet, plus a few special-needs cases.
Please contact our cat specialist Julie, and she'll be happy to assist you with choices.  Please call (818) 307-3326.


If you can’t own one, please consider volunteering. The kitties love attention, brushing, cuddling or playing with toys.
Socializing the more shy cats boosts their chances of being adopted. 

Gentle, lovely Layla (grey/brown tabby), charming and chubby Breezy (male), or sweet Angie (black and white) would each be “purr-fect” for an older person. To meet Baloo (boy) or Quinn (girl), both light-orange babies, call Megan at (818) 601-6916.   Please keep us in mind when you are ready to adopt a furry friend.

For Future Generations, Neuter and Spay Must be the Way

All of us growing kids need homes ASAP! Can you help?
Our hearts sank when we peeked in the cardboard box. Yes, the fuzzy puppies are adorable. No, these mixed-breed babies don’t know their existence was unplanned, unwanted or both. Another reminder of the pet overpopulation problem—a continuing dilemma. Spaying and neutering is the solution, but without question it’s just not happening, or not happening enough! Too many young, well-behaved companion animals are among millions euthanized every year because shelters and rescues don’t have room, numerous owners and breeders are irresponsible, and there simply aren’t enough homes. So each week that passes, this situation becomes more worrisome. These little Jindo/Labrador Retriever girls and boys have no names at this point, but lots of potential. Hopefully, the mommas won’t have another litter. Hopefully, the outcome will be loving families and successful adoptions, not more sad statistics. In this case, the careless actions of one irresponsible owner with two Jindo females has plenty of people trying to save and place 10 puppies. Spaying/neutering has health and behavioral benefits, as well as low-cost options.

Update 10-29-12:  All pups have been adopted.
