1. Kiwi 2
Adult (5 years) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 20 mi from Lake Forest


Hi, I’m Kiwi! I’m a 5-year-old girl looking for a new family because sadly, my owner is moving and can’t take me along.
I’m a loving, cuddly girl who loves being close to my person. Once I choose you, I’ll be your little shadow, snuggling beside you at night and filling your days with love. I also have a playful side and love to hunt! I can tolerate other cats and get along with small dogs, but I’d truly thrive as your one and only. All I want is a person to call my own and a forever home where I’ll always be loved. Could you be my second chance?
Adoption fee: $85

4. Mitzi
Adult (1 year) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 24 mi from Lake Forest




Hi, my name is Mitzi. I am a very friendly girl, so I think I had a home once. I wandered into a yard, and the lady thought her dogs might hurt me, so she brought me to SBACC. I am a very active cat who still has lots of kitten energy. I love to run around, explore, and play. I am also talkative and will let you know when I want something. In addition to being friendly, I am affectionate and enyoy being held and cuddled. Some people might say I am the purrfect cat, so I expect to find my forever home very, very soon. And, BTW, I am also pretty cute.

5. Taylor
Adult (1 year) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 24 mi from Lake Forest


Hi, my name is Taylor. I was left behind when my person moved, and I spent weeks hanging out in a backyard. She noticed something strange on my nose and was not sure whether it was an injury or an infection, but she did not want it to get worse, so she brought me to SBACC. The vet checked me out and even did a skin biopsy, which showed no parasitic infections, but they said I probably had flea or other insect bites. It is taking me a little while to get used to life at SBACC, and I am just starting to emerge from the cubby that I have been hiding in. I am a really friendly cat, and I like people and pets. I am not looking my best right now because of my nose injury, but it is starting to get better, and I know I will be looking great pretty soon. I am hoping for a forever home before the holidays.

6. Lovely Lola
Young · Female · Turkish Van / British Shorthair / Mixed (short coat) · 8 mi from Lake Forest




Meet Lovely Lola
Lovely Lola is a beautiful, dainty young girl, only about 10–12 months old, with the sweetest, most gentle personality. She has the most interesting markings…looks like 2 equal size triangles down her sides.
Lola’s story began on a rainy October night in Long Beach, where we found her living underneath a car. She was dirty, hungry and trying to survive on the streets. The moment we opened a can of food, she came running. She ate hungrily, then began rubbing against us as if she knew she had finally found someone who would help her.
Of course, there was no way we could leave her there.
We brought Lola home, gave her a nice warm bath and started giving her the full works — ear cleaning, nail trim, deworming, flea treatment, vaccines and microchipping — getting this little girl healthy, clean and ready for her spay.
And that’s when we discovered just how lovely Lola really is. ❤️
As soon as we brought her home from the vet, Lola began purring and rubbing against us. It almost seemed as though she was thanking us for helping her. After surviving outside in an area where life can be very hard for stray cats, she somehow remained incredibly trusting, affectionate and sweet.
Lola is an absolute love. Just watch her video and you’ll immediately see what we’re talking about. She is a precious, dainty, quiet little girl who will make some very lucky person or family a wonderful companion. She loves affection and will happily shower her person with purrs, rubs and love.
Lola seems comfortable around other cats and dogs. Because she has such a gentle, quieter personality, we think she would be happiest in a relatively calm home without young children, where she can relax, feel safe and blossom.
Interested in adopting Lovely Lola? Fill out an application by visiting LBSN.org, email adoptions@lbsn.org to request an adoption application Once we receive your completed application, our adoption team will review it. If we think you and Lola could be a good fit, we’ll contact you to arrange a time for you to meet this lovely little girl.
Adoption fee: $175, which helps offset a portion of Lola’s veterinary care, including her spay, vaccines, microchip, deworming and flea treatment.
Lola survived the streets. Now all she needs is the part of her story that matters most — a loving home of her very own. ❤️

7. Pearlie Girlie
Adult · Female · Turkish Van / British Shorthair / Mixed (short coat) · 8 mi from Lake Forest




MEET PEARLY GIRL
Pearly Girl is our newest rescue, and she is an absolute little sweetheart.
This beautiful, dainty white-and-tabby girl is about a year old, with gorgeous green eyes, the prettiest pink nose, and the most adorable little black beauty mark beside her nose. As if she needed anything else to make that little face irresistible!
Pearly Girl came to us when a homeless man who could no longer keep her was about to leave her on the streets. Somehow he found us, and there was simply no way we could turn this sweet girl away.
She is gentle, affectionate, playful, and incredibly loving. She’s a true little lap cat who loves cuddles, curling up beside you, and even burrowing under the covers in bed with you, purring away.
Read more about Pearlie Girlie
She has such a sweet, gentle nature and just wants someone of her own to love.
Her name has a special little story, too. Her beautiful white coat reminded us so much of my mom’s beloved cat Pearl, who recently passed away. We had already been affectionately calling this little one “Girly,” and somehow Pearly Girl just seemed to fit.
Now this darling girl needs the happy ending to her story—a loving forever home where she’ll never have to worry about being left behind again.
Could Pearly Girl be your girl?
To request an adoption application, please email adoptions@lbsn.org or text 562-588-4272. Once we receive your completed application, we’ll arrange a time for you to come meet her.
A $150 adoption donation is requested to help offset her veterinary expenses.
Please help us find Pearly Girl the loving forever home she deserves.

Hi, I’m Eclair! I’m a shy little tuxedo girl, but once you get to know me, I promise I’ll steal your heart! I love playing with other cats, especially my siblings, so having a kitty friend would make me so happy. Treats and snacks are definitely the way to my heart!

And I am absolutely CRAZY about cat treats! The moment I know treats are involved, you’ll have my full attention. My previous owner said one of the most wonderful things about me is my gentle temperament. I have never hissed at anyone or shown aggression. Even when something upsets me, I simply run away rather than getting angry or defensive. I am the perfect combination of independent and affectionate. I don’t demand constant attention, but I have my own adorable ways of showing you that I love you. I’m a sweet little companion who will bring warmth, laughter, and lots of love into your home.
My adoption fee is $175. That includes spay/neuter, microchip, FIV/FeLV combo test, current vaccines and health check.

10. Bella
Adult (5 years 2 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Calico / Mixed (medium coat) · 24 mi from Lake Forest




Hi, my name is Bella. I was rescued from an overcrowded shelter and brought to SBACC. It was obvious that I was very pregnant, and I delivered six kittens in my foster home the very next day. Sadly, one of them did not survive, but the other five have grown into happy, healthy kittens and will soon be ready for their forever homes. I took very good care of my kittens, but I am now done with motherhood and ready to be loved and pampered in my own home. My foster Mom says that I am the sweetest cat you will ever meet. I am very vocal and love to chat with my people, always letting you know when I want attention. More than anything, I love curling up in your lap and soaking up all the cuddles I can get. If you are looking for a loving companion who wants to be by your side, I am the perfect lap cat and will happily keep you company every chance I get.

15. Lenore Dove
Adult (5 years) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 24 mi from Lake Forest




Hi, my name is Lenore Dove, and I am a survivor. I had been abused, but luckily I was rescued and brought to SBACC. Someone who feeds feral cats found me. I had been dumped in a colony of ferals, and she knew I was in bad shape and did not belong there. I had a severely damaged eye that ruptured and had to be removed, and I had bruising on my abdomen and chest that looked like I had been kicked. I also had sores and scabs on my neck and head. I am a bit shy and timid, but I warm up quickly to quiet, gentle people. The people who care for me at SBACC say I am very sweet. I am hoping to find a home where I will be safe and loved forever and ever.

Hi, my name is Henna. I was rescued from an abandoned property along with my two kittens. They went to a foster home, but I stayed at SBACC. I was not in very good shape. I had a severely damaged eye that had to be removed, and I have a significant head tilt. Some specialists have checked it out, and they think it’s due to an ear infection and some inner ear issues. It might be with me forever. Despite this, I am a very friendly girl and a ball of energy. I am hoping for a forever home, and I would probably do best as an only cat.

Hey there! I’m Mariel Hemingway! I’m a fun-loving girl with extra toes (yep, I’m a polydactyl!), and I’m always ready for my next adventure! I love jumping, playing, and being a little silly. I may be a bit clumsy, but that just makes me extra cute! I sometimes get carried away with my play bites, so having another kitty around to help me learn good kitty manners would be awesome! Once I’ve gotten all my zoomies out, I’m all about the cuddles. I love sleeping beside my humans and snuggling as close as possible. Could you be the one to give this extra-toed girl her forever home?

Hi! I’m Mirai! I’ve grown up with my littermates and love having big chase sessions with them. I enjoy any toy and can easily entertain myself, whether it’s batting something across the floor or inventing my own games. I’m an independent, playful kitten with a bright personality.
I do have one quirk: I’m sensitive to Revolution, and it causes temporary hair loss for me. I even got a little bald spot when I received my microchip. It doesn’t slow me down or affect my health — it’s just something to know about me.

My adoption fee is $175. That includes spay/neuter, microchip, FIV/FeLV combo test, current vaccines and health check.

Why adopt an adult cat in Lake Forest
An adult cat's personality is fully formed, so the rescue can tell you how they are with people, other pets and busy households. Many have lived in foster homes and are used to family life.
Grown cats are calmer and need less supervision than kittens, which suits people who work long hours or have young children.
