The Rescue House is a non-profit, all volunteer-based organization dedicated to assisting cats through its rescue, foster and adoption activities. We find loving homes for unwanted, abandoned, homeless and abused cats. We open our arms to socialized, people-friendly cats that need assistance, regardless of age and often regardless of handicap. We find good homes for every cat that we take in – we are a true no-kill cat rescue organization.

Since our inception in 1999, we have rescued over 8,000 cats. We find loving, permanent homes for them through our 8 adoption centers in San Diego County, located in pet stores that work with us and share our philosophy. We have wonderful cats of all colors, shapes, sizes and ages. Each of our cats has had all their medical requirements tended to; we work with 6 veterinarians that ensure this. Each cat has been examined, tested for feline leukemia, spayed/neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped, dewormed and treated for fleas. The Rescue House also pays for the microchip registration and 30 days of pet insurance for each cat and kitten that is adopted. The adoption fee assists us in covering these costs. Our senior cats have a full blood chemistry and, if needed, teeth cleaning done before entering one of our adoption centers. We encourage you to visit our centers. Please call (760) 591-1211 for a listing of center locations, or check our website for the pictures of our special cats ready for adoption. These are great cats with much love to give!
