The Rescue House Information

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 9,300 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. All of our cats have had their medical requirements tended to; we work with 7 veterinarians who ensure this. Each cat has been examined, tested for feline leukemia and FIV, spayed/neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped, dewormed and treated for fleas. Our senior cats have also had a full blood chemistry done and a teeth cleaning if needed. Our adoption fee also includes the microchip registration and 30-days of complimentary pet insurance.

We presently have over 225 active volunteers and 35 active foster homes. Our ONLY source of funding is from the generous donations we receive from caring individuals.
