Since we began, we have rescued and placed over 25,000 cats into loving homes. Thousands more have been helped through our volunteer-fueled education and outreach programs.About Us The core of what we do at Kitten Rescue is rescue, foster, care for, and adopt out cats and kittens. We do this to prevent them from dying on the streets or being euthanized at LA City Shelters. The cats and kittens are rescued from a variety of situations. Most live in our volunteers’ homes and are fostered there until we can find permanent homes for them. Some who need special care, are elderly, or are unlikely to be adopted live at the KR Cat Sanctuary. We have multiple life-saving programs at Kitten Rescue, but a cornerstone of what we do is outreach and education. Kitten Rescue educates the public on responsible pet guardianship — teaching people how to care for kittens and cats, and explaining the importance of spaying and neutering.#J-18808-Ljbffr
