1. Lovely Lola

Young · Female · Turkish Van / British Shorthair / Mixed (short coat) · 11 mi from Tustin

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. ❤️

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. ❤️

2. Pearlie Girlie

Adult · Female · Turkish Van / British Shorthair / Mixed (short coat) · 11 mi from Tustin

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.

I have a playful side, too! I get along with other kitties, love my toys, and sometimes you’ll catch me proudly carrying my favorite toys around like little treasures.

I’m a little bundle of sweetness, cuddles, and playful charm, just waiting for my forever family. Could that be you?

21. Bowtie

Kitten (2 months 20 days) · Female · Tuxedo / Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed (medium coat) · 13 mi from Tustin

Bowtie is a spirited, wobbly-but-never-slowed-down kitten who proves that a little cerebellar hypoplasia or CH won't dampen a big personality.
Bowtie's CH is considered moderate to severe, as she is not able to walk, stand, or sit up on her own, however her head and body tremors are generally mild and tend to appear when she's focused on an object or eating food. Even so, she can lift her head and push herself up using her front legs, and she gets around quite capably by using her front nails to pull and her back legs to push herself along—for her to maneuver independently, though, she needs carpeted floors or non-slip bath mats underfoot for traction. She can enjoy her meals from a bowl while lying down, or with proper supports around her if she chooses to try to sit—once she's positioned comfortably, she eats just fine. Given her small size, a standard litterbox looks like a monumental challenge to her right now, so for the time being she uses modified boxes and pee pads, and she should be able to adapt to commercially available low-entry boxes as she gets bigger.

Read more about Bowtie

And energy? This kitten runs on premium fuel. She doesn't just play—she conducts full-scale campaigns against her toys, wand-toy in one paw and her long-suffering snake in the other, wrestling it into submission with the intensity of a kitten twice her size. She flops into rooms with purpose, announces her opinions loudly (especially about food dishes), and propels herself across the room with sheer determination, pulling and scooting her way toward whatever's caught her attention—usually followed by a dramatic collapse into a well-earned nap. It's a lot of enthusiasm packed into one small, formally-dressed package, all the more reason her space needs to be safe and protected as she moves.

Her ideal adopter will understand that this kind of support and patience is simply part of loving Bowtie, and that she's happy to coexist with feline housemates as well.

She's looking for a patient adopter ready to "Bowtie-proof" a home with soft landings and safe exploring spots. Cerebellar hypoplasia is not contagious and doesn't require medication, and it's not progressive, so Bowtie's condition will not worsen over time. With appropriate care and support from her family, she can look forward to a normal lifespan, and this level of determined, tumbling joy is simply who she is—for life.

22. Flurry

Young (7 months) · Male · Siamese / Snowshoe / Mixed (short coat) · 13 mi from Tustin

Hi! My name is
Flurry
, and I have an important question for you:

Are you looking for a handsome kitten? Fluffy, blue-eyed lynx point Siamese who can simultaneously entertain you, supervise your household, and occasionally sit in your lap and purr?

Excellent. Because I happen to be available.

My story didn’t start out very happily. My mom, Frostine, and I were found abandoned outside during a terrible heat wave. We had no food, no water, and no idea why our humans had left us there. Thankfully, a good Samaritan found us and brought us to
D.R.E.A.M. Animal Rescue
, where we finally got the food, water, safety, and love we desperately needed.

Read more about Flurry

And now? Well…
I’m thriving!

Once I know you’re one of the good humans, I will happily turn on my
purr motor
and settle in beside you for some serious petting. I’m friendly, playful, and curious about absolutely EVERYTHING.

And when I say everything, I mean
EVERYTHING.

What’s that over there? I must investigate.

What’s that noise? Must investigate.

What’s behind that door? Obviously, I must investigate.

Why is my human sitting quietly?
Clearly, they need me.

I especially love
rope toys, coils, rattling balls, and toys I can carry around
. Yes, I said
carry
. I am a tiny kitten with very important possessions and I feel strongly that I should be allowed to transport my toys wherever I please.

I also LOVE climbing my cat tree. From up there, I can observe my kingdom, conduct surveillance operations, and occasionally launch myself into an important kitten mission.

I’m also a big fan of playing with my mom, Frostine. We have lots of fun together, although I’m pretty sure she sometimes wishes I would take a nap and stop bothering her. Personally, I think she secretly enjoys my excellent company.

And just in case you’re wondering about my manners…

I ALWAYS use the litter box.

You’re welcome.

So, if you’re looking for a handsome little lynx point Siamese who is playful, inquisitive, friendly, affectionate once he gets to know you, and guaranteed to bring plenty of entertainment into your life,
I might just be your guy.

Come meet me. Give me a little time to get acquainted with you. Then prepare yourself for the moment when my purr motor starts.

Because once I decide you’re my person…

You’re probably going to be my person forever.
❤️

Love,

Flurry

Adult (1 year 1 month) · Female · Siamese / Mixed (short coat) · 13 mi from Tustin

Hi! My name is Frostine , and I’m a 1 year old beautiful blue eyed lynx point Siamese girl with a soft heart, a gentle soul, and a rather dramatic story about how I came to D.R.E.A.M. Animal Rescue.

My son, Flurry , and I were abandoned outside in the middle of a terrible heat wave. We had no food. No water. No way to get out of the heat. Thankfully, a wonderful Good Samaritan found us and brought us to D.R.E.A.M. They gave us something we desperately needed: a second chance. ❤️

These days, I’m discovering that life can actually be pretty wonderful!

Read more about Frostine

I’m a calm, sweet girl who just needs a little time to get to know you. Once I know you’re my person, my purr motor starts right up! I love sitting near you while you pet me, and I’m perfectly happy to keep you company without demanding that I be the center of attention.

I’m also a curious and playful girl. I enjoy rope toys, coils, balls, and toy mice , and I absolutely love climbing my cat tree. When I’m not busy investigating something important, you can usually find me perched up high on my cat tree or lounging comfortably on the sofa, quietly supervising everything happening around me. Someone has to keep an eye on things, after all!

I especially enjoy playing with my son, Flurry . We have been through a lot together, and I’m very happy that we have each other. ❤️

I’m a good girl who always uses my litter box , and I promise I’ve retired from my former career as an outdoor survival expert. These days, I’m much more interested in soft furniture, toys, affection, and having a safe place to call home.

Maybe that home could be yours ?

If you’re looking for a gorgeous Siamese girl who is sweet, calm, playful, curious, and ready to learn what it means to be truly loved, I would absolutely love to meet you.

Could you be my happily-ever-after?

Love and purrs,

Frostine

He loves to play with his brother Rocky E. So if you are looking to adopt a pair of kittens, Ryland & Rocky would love to be adopted together.
tested negative for FeLV. He tested a faint positive for the antibodies of FIV. It
means that the kitten has FIV antibodies, not necessarily the disease itself.

Read more about Ryland

These antibodies are generally maternal antibodies passed from the mother’s milk. A positive FIV test means a kitten can still be adopted, as it's very possible the kitten can be negative when retested at 6 months of age. We will retest him at 6 months old.

*located in Temecula. If you have a friendly cat or dog at home, Ryland could also become friends easily. He is very playful so he would love a playmate

He is the most chill laid back kitten. His stunning green eyes will melt your heart.. Rocky & Ryland were named after the movie Project Hail Mary. Ryland had a rough start just like the character in the movie trying to find his way home. Rocky & Ryland were found under a car in a street abandoned by their Mom as babies.

tested negative for FeLV. He tested a faint positive for the antibodies of FIV. It
means that the kitten has FIV antibodies, not necessarily the disease itself.

These antibodies are generally maternal antibodies passed from the mother’s milk. A positive FIV test means a kitten can still be adopted, as it's very possible the kitten can be negative when retested at 6 months of age. We will retest him at 6 months old.

If you have a friendly cat or dog at home, Rocky could also become friends easily. He is very playful so he would love a playmate. Rocky & Ryland were named after the movie Project Hail Mary. Rocky had a rough start just like the character in the movie trying to find his way home. Rocky & Ryland were found under a car in a street abandoned by their Mom as babies. Rescued & doing amazing now. He cannot wait to find his forever home. Rocky uses the litter box perfectly. He is cautious when he meets new people, since he was left all alone as a baby. Once he realizes the humans are safe & kind, he warms right up. All our animals come fixed, microchipped, deflead, dewormed, combo tested, healthy & happy. *Rocky is not purebred so if you are looking for a hypoallergenic cat he is not that but rather an amazing rescue kitten. *located in Temecula.

26. Kitten Abu

Kitten (2 months 21 days) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 15 mi from Tustin

Hi, my name is Abu. My three sibs and I were six weeks old when we were abandoned and left on a porch. We were brought to SBACC and Ariel. I went to one foster home, and our other sister and brother went to a different foster home. Ariel and I have become very attached to each other. We love to play and snuggle together and love our tunnels and Amazon boxes. We also enjoyed playing with the older cats in our foster home. A neighbor visited with her dogs a few times, and we were fine with them. We also did fine with little kids who visited. When tuckered out from playing, we enjoy long naps, then wake up and start playing again. We are cuddly lap cats, now ready for our forever homes, and we hope to stay together. We are together in three of the pics.

30. Luna

Young · Female · Russian Blue / Chartreux / Mixed (short coat) · 11 mi from Tustin

Meet Lovely Luna
Meet Luna, a beautiful one-year-old Russian Blue/Chartreux mix with a silky-soft charcoal-gray coat, striking green-gold eyes and a wonderfully sweet, gentle nature.
Luna was rescued from the streets of Long Beach along with her brother, and we are so happy that life outside is now behind her. She has been lovingly cared for ever since and is ready for the next chapter — a safe, secure forever home of her own.
Luna is a quiet, sweet and playful young cat who absolutely loves the company of other cats. She enjoys having a feline friend to play and cuddle with, so ideally we would love to place her in a home with another friendly young cat who is also looking for a companion.

Read more about Luna

❤️
With her elegant little face, beautiful eyes and incredibly soft coat, Luna is even prettier in person. She is a gentle girl who would make a wonderful companion for both her person and another kitty.
✨ Luna is:
• Spayed • Up to date on vaccines • Microchipped • Dewormed • Flea treated • Litter-box trained • Nails trimmed • Provided with her veterinary records
Could Luna Be Your Girl?
What we want most for Luna is a home where she will never have to worry about being outside or homeless again — a home where she can feel safe, loved and secure for the rest of her life.
We would especially love to hear from someone who already has a friendly young cat looking for a companion. ❤️
To request an adoption application, please email adoptions@lbsn.org or text 562-588-4272. If texting, please include your email address so we can send you an application.
Once we receive and review your application, if we think you and Luna could be a good match, we’ll contact you to arrange a time to meet her.
Adoption fee: $175, which helps offset a portion of Luna’s veterinary care.
Above all, our priority is finding Luna a safe, happy and loving forever home where this beautiful girl will be cherished for the rest of her life. ❤️
A Note About Allergies: Russian Blues are sometimes described as “hypoallergenic,” but no cat is truly allergy-free. Luna is a rescue and a Russian Blue/Chartreux mix, not a purebred cat. If you have a significant cat allergy, Luna may therefore not be the right match for your home.

Adopting a cat with children in Tustin

Bring the whole family to meet the cat before you adopt, and ask the rescue how the cat behaves around children your kids' ages.

Teach children to let the cat come to them, to stroke gently, and to leave the cat alone while it's eating, sleeping or using the litter box. Give the cat a high or quiet spot to retreat to.

Relaxed adult cats are often a better match for young children than kittens, which scratch and nip while they play.
