Kitten Rescue was founded in the spring of 1997 and has grown to be one of the largest and most respected animal welfare groups in Los Angeles. We are a non-profit, volunteer-run organization devoted to finding loving new homes for unwanted, homeless cats and kittens. Kitten Rescue volunteers place over 1,000 cats and kittens into homes every year. Since we began, we have rescued and placed over 31,000 cats (and counting!) into loving homes.

4worldlovers: L.A. Love & Leashes is the only non-profit-run adoption center dedicated to finding homes for dogs and cats still living

Created by the non-profit Friends of L.A. Animal Shelters, L.A. Love & Leashes is located at Westfield Century City in Los Angeles, and started as a way to showcase shelter pets in a more welcoming, serene setting than the typical local shelter offers. The animals are more engaged and less anxious, and potential adopters have an easier time connecting with the individual dogs and cats. The fundamental focus of L.A. Love & Leashes is to help our city shelters save more lives by reaching large numbers of people who might not otherwise visit our shelters, thereby increasing the number of animals adopted.

All adoption fees collected by L.A. Love & Leashes go straight to the city shelters the same day,

Last year, hundreds of thousands of loving dogs and cats were killed in shelters like the ones here in Los Angeles just because they didn’t have a safe place to call home.


Best Friends Animal Society in Los Angeles is working collaboratively with animal rescue groups, city shelters and passionate individuals who are all dedicated to saving the lives of cats and dogs in Los Angeles shelters.

As part of this mission, Best Friends hosts adoption and fundraising events and leads the NKLA (No-Kill Los Angeles) initiative.

As of January 1, 2023, we’ll no longer be operating out of our Mission Hills location and all adoptions will be taking place at our West L.A. location only.

You can be part of that work too when you adopt, foster, volunteer or advocate. We can provide training and behavior guidance should you ever need it, or help you find local spay/neuter services. Working together, we'll make California and the entire country no-kill by 2025.

When you give a dog or cat a home, you’re saving a life.

When you adopt a dog or cat who’s been patiently waiting for a place to call home, you’re not only saving a life.

You’re making space in the shelter for other homeless pets in Los Angeles and giving them a chance to grow, thrive and find families of their very own. You might not feel like a hero, but to one animal, you’re the entire world.

Cats, kittens, and dogs are available on-site every day, ready to meet you! Many of our animals are in foster homes, so please call ahead if you’re interested in meeting a particular cat or dog.
