PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A PRIVATE ADOPTION. WE HAVE CHECKED THE MEDICAL IS DONE BUT DO NOT CLAIM RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE ADOPTIONS. THE ADOPTION IS BETWEEN YOU AND THE RESCUER. These cats do need homes and are not in our rescue due to space, this doesn't mean they aren't wonderful animals who need families. Be sure to ask all the questions you need of the rescuer to ensure a proper fit into your home.

Log into our website and complete the adoption application at link below:

Applications : Forms (rescuegroups.org)

Once approved, check back if you haven't heard in 48 hours. Once your application has been approved, your information will be forwarded to the rescuer if the phone number is not listed in this posting. Please let us know if the rescuer does not contact you in a timely manner.

All animals have been sterilized, received 2 sets of FVCRP vaccines, rabies (if over 4 months at time of sterilization), and microchipped unless otherwise noted in paperwork.

Why Adopt from LBSN? At LBSN, we pride ourselves on the quality, care and dedication we give to every cat we rescue. Our cats are never kept in cages or adoption centers — they live in our foster homes as part of the family until they are healthy, happy and truly ready for adoption. Because we live with them, we get to know their personalities extremely well, which allows us to focus on making the right match, not simply making an adoption. With nearly 30 years of rescue experience, we’re also here after adoption to offer guidance and support whenever you need it. For us, success is knowing we’ve done right by each cat and found them a loving home for life. ❤️

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.

A2R kitties are all sterilized, fully vaccinated (if old enough), socialized in private homes not a cattery, they usually receive high end cat food, probiotics, & regular health care. We also provide 30 days of Petcademy free to support transition into your new home as well as having a professional cat behavior coach on staff to support your needs. We take pride in going above and beyond in our customer and kitty service. When you adopt from us you become part of our A2R family and join a community through our social media as well.

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.

He may be a bit reserved at first, but give him about 24 hours to settle in, and you’ll soon have a purring lap cat who is happy to soak up your attention! Dallas takes comfort in his brother Vegas and looks to him for confidence when meeting new people. These two are so connected that Dallas will even call out for his brother if he can’t find him. His loving personality is absolutely worth the little bit of patience it takes to win his heart.
Vegas (grey/white) is the outgoing charmer of the duo! This total lovebug adores human attention and isn’t shy about asking for it. He’ll happily headbutt your hand or leg to remind you that it’s time for pets, and head and chin scratches are definitely the way to his heart. Vegas is also a big fan of mealtime and enjoys his food a little too much! He’s carrying a little extra weight and could benefit from losing a pound or two to help keep him healthy. With some portion control and a balanced diet, he’ll be on the right track!
Dallas and Vegas have lived with other cats and dogs and tend to be pretty indifferent to their furry housemates. With slow, thoughtful introductions, they may be able to share their home with other pets. Their most important relationship, however, is with each other. They are a truly bonded pair and must be adopted together.
At 9 years old, these boys have so much love left to give. They’re past the kitten chaos and ready to settle into a peaceful home where they can enjoy cozy naps, full bellies, gentle affection, and the comfort of always having their favorite companion nearby.
Could you be the forever home Dallas & Vegas have been waiting for? If you have room in your heart for two sweet adorable gentlemen, these brothers would love to meet you!

PRINCESS TIANA and several feline family members were saved from a horrific hoarding case in Riverside, California. We know they are all related because the horrible human woman, kept letting them mate. When the Rescue Mama found out she took action.

Aside from the necklaces the kitties wear in their professional pictures, Rescue Mama names her rescue cats after shows she is currently watching at the time she saves them.

TIGER LILY and several feline family members were saved from a horrific hoarding case in Riverside, California. We know they are all related because the horrible human woman, kept letting them mate. When the Rescue Mama found out she took action.

As of OCTOBER 2026, 115 cats have either gone to other rescues or have been saved by us. You will know who these cats are by their names. They have all been named after the show "Once Upon A Time". Aside from the necklaces the kitties wear in their professional pictures, Rescue Mama names her rescue cats after shows she watches.

Meet TIGER LILY, a young adult domestic shorthair tabby from Riverside County, California, whose extraordinary orange markings are matched by a heart full of sweetness and affection. This beautiful girl has one of the most eye-catching coats around, with a unique orange pattern that makes her truly stand out. But her beauty is only part of her charm. TIGER LILY is a loving, cuddly companion who is ready to discover just how wonderful life can be when she has a cozy place to call her own.

TIGER LILY came from a home where comfortable places to relax and snuggle beside her humans were limited. Despite her difficult living circumstances, she has held on to her sweet nature and her love for people. She is ready for a new chapter filled with soft beds, comfy couches, gentle affection, and all the little comforts every cat should get to enjoy.

And let me tell you, this girl knows how to show love! TIGER LILY adores cuddles and pets, and she will happily rub herself all over you to make sure you know she is delighted to have your attention. She is affectionate, friendly, and full of the kind of charm that makes having a cat around such a joy. Imagine settling onto the couch after a long day and having TIGER LILY come over to rub against you, curl up nearby, and keep you company. She could become the sweetest part of your daily routine.

TIGER LILY also has a favorite treat worth mentioning: wet food! Offering her a delicious meal is a lovely way to make her feel appreciated and help her settle into her new surroundings. Between tasty meals, affectionate head rubs, and cozy places to nap, this girl has plenty of reasons to look forward to her next chapter.

When it comes to feline roommates, TIGER LILY prefers a little personal space. She would likely thrive as the only cat, where she can enjoy being the center of attention. However, she can tolerate another cat who respects her boundaries and gives her room to relax.

TIGER LILY is ready for a loving family who will appreciate her affectionate personality and give her the comfortable life she is waiting to discover. To learn more about adopting TIGER LILY, please apply at: Workinwhiskers.com. Could this uniquely beautiful, cuddle-loving girl be the companion who brings warmth, comfort, and plenty of purrs into your life?

ISAAC and his siblings (ALLUCARD - ATREUS - CARMILLA) were turned into the shelter. We have no real idea what their life was before coming to the rescue.

So ISAAC and CARMILLA were adopted together back in 2021 as small kittens. To their dismay, they were returned to us in 2026. It was no fault of their own. The woman decided she was moving back home and couldn't take her cats.

Meet ISAAC, a handsome, extra-large tabby boy with beautiful white markings and a heart just as big as his cuddly frame. ISAAC is a sweet, loving gentleman who adores affection and is ready to find a loving home where he can settle in, feel cherished, and share all the warmth he has to offer.

ISAAC’s story began when he and his sister, CARMILLA, were saved from a high-kill shelter as kittens. At just three months old, ISAAC found a family to call his own. After four and a half years, he and CARMILLA returned to seek a new chapter, and now this wonderful boy is ready to meet the people who will welcome him into their lives and appreciate what a special companion he is.

If you love big cats with even bigger hearts, ISAAC might just steal yours. He is an exceptionally sweet and affectionate boy who enjoys cuddles and being close to his people. There is something extra comforting about having a big, soft feline friend nearby, ready to keep you company after a long day. Isaac has that wonderful, loving presence that makes a home feel a little warmer and everyday moments a little sweeter.

ISAAC would be happy as the only cat in the family, where he can enjoy plenty of attention and companionship. He may also be compatible with a very friendly, easygoing feline companion who is comfortable sharing space and making new friends. His future family should focus on a thoughtful introduction and a comfortable environment where everyone can settle in at their own pace.

This big tabby boy has so much love to give. He is looking for a family who sees beyond his size and recognizes the gentle, cuddly sweetheart underneath. Whether you imagine quiet evenings together, affectionate moments on the couch, or simply having a loving feline friend nearby, ISAAC is ready to bring companionship and comfort to his next chapter.

To learn more about adopting ISAAC, please apply at Workinwhiskers.com. Could this extra-large bundle of tabby sweetness be the loving companion you have been hoping to welcome into your life?

ISAAC is a DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / TABBY. She is 5 years and 6 months old and is good with cats. In his last home he was never around children but did live with a small dog.

Meet MOLLY, a sweet orange tabby girl from Corona, California, whose heart is full of love for people and whose favorite place is wherever she can be close to her favorite humans. MOLLY and her son, MAX, were saved from the streets together, and now this affectionate mama is ready to find a loving home where she can enjoy all the cuddles, attention, and companionship she adores.

MOLLY is a people-loving girl who knows exactly what makes life wonderful: gentle pets, warm hugs, and quality time with her humans. She is super friendly and enjoys receiving affection, making her a lovely companion for someone who wants a cat who truly appreciates human company. Whether you are settling down for a quiet evening or taking a break during a busy day, MOLLY would be delighted to share a little love and remind you how special it feels to have a feline friend by your side.

While MOLLY's heart opens easily to people, she is more cautious when it comes to meeting other cats. She can feel frightened around feline companions and may hiss or growl to communicate that she needs space. These are her ways of expressing discomfort, and she will be happiest in an environment where she feels secure and does not have to worry about sharing her space with a cat who makes her nervous.
.

MOLLY would do wonderfully as the only cat in the family, where she can enjoy being the center of attention and soak up all the affection her heart desires. Alternatively, she may be compatible with an exceptionally friendly, relaxed cat who can give her space and allow introductions to happen gradually. A patient family who respects her boundaries will help her feel safe and settled.

This beautiful orange tabby has so much love to give. She is ready for cozy naps, loving hugs, gentle head rubs, and a family who understands her needs. With MOLLY around, you can look forward to a loyal little companion who makes every day brighter simply by being near you.
