    With no hesitation I give LA Kitten Rescue the very highest recommendations that a fretful kitten mother can give. If you're looking for an organization that perfectly balances thoroughness and high standards with welcoming atmospheres and friendly staff, you've found it. Lindsay patiently guided us through the entire process from start to finish, happily fielding all of our many questions. To anybody wanting to adopt a cat in the LA area, this is the place to start!

    I just adopted my gorgeous kitty from Kitten Rescue! I had an amazing experience with them! Kelly was beyond helpful, kind, and informative! I adopted a 3 month old kitten a month before from another shelter who needed a buddy! They were so helpful finding me a perfect match/ similar age! Thank you Kitten Rescue!! I couldn't be more happier with the entire process!

    Happy one-year anniversary to our lovely little black kitten, Ringo!! We are so grateful for Kitten Rescue LA for this little guy and we have absolutely fallen in love with him with each passing day. The fact that we let the rescue basically choose our cat out of several we were open to adopt, and bringing him home was really a wonderful way of letting the kitten pick us. By not choosing a cat based on outward appearances or superficial differences, we got a scrawny little black kitty who really has never grown much -- but is the best behaved, most confident, sweetest, smartest cat I've ever owned. Ringo doesn't know how small he is. He's definitely the leader of my two cats, even though my older cat outweighs him by at least 8 or 9 pounds. These two have really bonded so beautifully, and my older cat Peanut has become more affectionate and relaxed. This companionship was exactly what he needed. I highly recommend that you always adopt two cats together-- I have never realized the importance of cats needing each other until I've seen this bond between them grow.I added a video of them grooming and sleeping together, it warms my heart to see how quickly they took to each other. If you introduce cats the right way, I believe there is no cat that can't get along with another. They simply need some time, understanding and patience. Cats are complex creatures but they are much more social than people realize. Ringo is already having conversations with me just like Peanut does. He has also learned a vast range of vocabulary, including words like "bedtime," "dinner," "naptime,""playtime," "breakfast," "no," "good boy," and his name, etc. Thanks again Kitten Rescue!!

    This organization is one that is doing great work to save and protect the cats and kittens that need it most. We were lucky enough to have adopted to kittens at the same time brothers. Who to this day are super happy and well taken care of. You have to love people who care about what they do. The is is one of those rare places.

    Kitten rescue does a fantastic job at making sure each kitty is adopted into a family that fits. The manager Kelly is an absolute gem! She was understanding, more than willing to help, and educational throughout the entire process. My partner and I live in an apartment and she helped find a solution to ensure our windows were safe enough to bring our little guy home. I cannot recommend Kitten Rescue enough, the process is a bit lengthy but necessary to make sure both parties are a perfect fit. We could not be happier with the kitty we adopted formerly named Herbert (now named Winston)! He is a our dream cat. Just FYI rescue cats usually take some time to adjust into their new homes but it is so worth it watching them get more and more comfortable and their personalities blossoming. The staff and volunteers were all very kind and helpful as well. We got introduced to many of the kitties at the sanctuary and fell in love with our sweet boy. The rescue partners with a local pet store and they provide you with all the the information needed about feeding/diet. Overall great experience and happy to have adopted from KR.

    All healthy now.

    Rescued a kitten that they claimed to to be 8 months. Took kitten to the vet, and they said she actually might be between 8 months and a year and half old. Asked the foster if said kitten has any medical issues, and foster said no medical issues. Bought kitten home, and she has explosive diarrhea for three days. Found blood in her watery poop on the third day, and took her to the vet. Vet told us she has a Giardia infection. ~$200 vet bill for the test, test for our resident cat to make sure he didn't get infected (thank god he didn't), medication, and retest. Vet also informed us that she has pretty severe gingivitis, which is surprising since she's supposedly 8 months old. Another ~$350 for x-rays, treatment, and dental cleaning. I pray this kitten doesn't have any other surprise health issues that Kitten Rescue did not informed us about. Emailed them, and their excuse is that they didn't know about the Giardia. Well, a little advice for potential adopters: ask the rescue if the pets you're adopting has a negative full fecal exam, not just for worms. And always separate your new pet from you resident pets until you can take the new one to the vet. Learned the hard way that you can never be too careful when bringing home a new pet and introducing animals. Gave them back one star since they refunded our adoption fee. Another star cuz we love our new kitty and she's the sweetest. We couldn't bear to let her go and would rather just take care of her ourselves. But as adopters, it would be nice to be able to make an informed choice, instead of going through the stress of surprise medical issues and bills right off the bat. And we were so scared that our resident cat would be infected. Good thing we separated them.

    OMG. Are you kidding

    Does anyone know how I can contact Kitten Rescue? There is no phone number anywhere and the address says it's a mailing address only. I really need help with two kittens I rescued at work.

    Hi Amanda - please send an email to mail@kittenrescue.org or go to the website (https://kittenrescue.org) and fill out a contact form.

    Does anyone know if they can take in 5 kittens? A local stray cat had them by my door and now I'm having problems with my neighbors. I've really don't want to take them to a shelter and we're they will die.

    Sure! I was looking for 2, but I could take 5. 323 708 1685 leave text Thxz. Doe Gentry

    This place REALLY cares about which cats go to where. I got my cat (named Captain when I adopted…read moreand now named Doc) after going over there for a few days. They talked to me and figured out my personal life and then suggested cats that they thought would fit in. Doc has become the perfect friend. And I can't thank them enough for helping me. UPDATE: also got another cat named Marty and we have been a family for over 5 years!

    adopted my sweet baby boy from here a couple of years ago!! i met with his foster mom, met my baby…read moreboy and then it was instant love!! his foster mom informed me of the process on how to adopt him. as soon as he went to perry's place, i went there to spend some more time with him then took him home the same day! the process was smooth and the lady helping me was kind. she even showed us some other cats and kittens. when i came to perry's place, my boy cat was having an allergic reaction (nothing serious, just red patch of skin with fur missing in between his shoulder blades on his back), and the staff here informed me of it and pointed it out to me before i signed anything. they showed me the medical history and on it, they noted the flea medication that was used that caused this. i was super grateful for this since now i know which flea medication to not use and i was grateful it was brought to my attention when i was there still and before i signed anything/paid. i recommend adopting from here. whole process was smooth and all the cats are so cute.

    what an awesome experience adopting not one but two dogs from LaBelle…read more they were always communicative and answered any and all questions the whole time. I initially adopted one dog, and had such a good experience, I adopted a second a week later! were now one big happy family thanks to LaBelle.

    If I could give zero stars I would. I feel bad for all the pups that have passed in their care…read morebecause of the negligence of the owners / workers there. Workers seem to be besties with the family so that makes sense as to why it's easier for them to lie and manipulate you and there is no consequences. To start off I did not know who The Labelle Foundation was a week ago! Some lady on Nextdoor was suppose to help me foster another dog on there but instead she asks me if I want to foster her dog because her husband is coming back from vacation and he isn't happy that she got a foster dog. Of course I say yes but did not ask through what foundation and how they handled things. She just tells me to go on their IG and apply to foster, so I do that and within 4 hours a coordinator named BELLA NAVARRO tells me if I can start fostering. I let her know a lady that has Fynn will be dropping him off and she just said to let her know when I have him. Once I let her know all she said was "YAY" I got ZERO INFO on him & had to scroll on their IG to find information on him. I did ask her how many months he was and she said 8 when they had just made a post in March saying he was 3 months. You can tell how much they care. Mind you this all happened so fast and I only had him for 3 days. In those 3 days he did not want to eat and so I was CONCERNED and MENTIONED my concern. All the pup needed was some wet food! But what does Bella say "He has been eating this for months,he just being picky LOL" and THATS IT. So what do I do? I start giving him some chicken and chicken feet because they don't try and give me something else for him! BELLA ends up saying "well of course if all he eats is treats he isn't going to want food." When the reason he started eating treats was because she just LOL about him not eating instead of giving me food that he actually wants! Dogs / puppies get bored of the same food! Especially if you live in a household that has cat food and fresh food he is going to reject his nasty kibble! The audacity ISABELLA had to blame me on the reason why he isn't eating instead of solving the issue. I end up voicing my opinion and they get bothered at the fact that I posted my concerns about them online. Also his previous foster idk what connections she has with them but kept bugging me to take my post down because it was "slander" and she did not need the "stress." MAM no one cares about your stress, how are you not concerned and supporting them, you are just like them. If I was to read someone posting stuff like this ( which I did on here till after ) I will not support a foundation that cares more about profiting from the animals ( puppies especially $700 each , which legally can't go over $550..so idk how they are going around that and not getting their 501c3 license revoked ) Anyways after I voice my opinion I get a text from BELLA saying I should have told her my health concerns about the dog instead of going online about it. I DID let her know the concern and she did not care. She was straight up trying to manipulate. What does she do instead of just saying I could go pick up some food...tells me to take him to their vet so he could be evaluated. To the vet for WHAT? He is not sick, he just wants fresh food! She ends up sending one of her friends/coworker Sam to pick up the dog and tells me it's just for "Overnight" I already figured it wasn't because of the reviews I saw but I wanted to see if it was true. YUP the reviews were right. They lie to you and ghost you and NEVER give you your foster dog back & then post him ok tik tok hours later like as if they didn't just take him away from you with NO EXPLANATION. ALSO if you go on the daughters food brand tik tok FUREVER their is a whole video claiming and showing that all their rescues eat fresh food and care about their health but yet gave me 3 bags of DRY ADULT DOG FOOD for a puppy. You can see they do it all for the show and so people can donate their money to them. There are so many horror stories of them not paying the vet to help sick puppies they have in their care and they end up dying. They charge so much money for a puppy but yet refuse to pay for their services. I can go on about this and how shady they are but you can just look them up on Tik Tok , read the rest of the reviews on here. So just beware. They don't like people to be concerned because they will feel like you have "ATTITUDE" and take your foster dog away

My boyfriend and I found one of this rescue's dogs after she had been intentionally left alone at Rustic Canyon Park at night. The owner later admitted to me that she had hoped someone would simply pick the dog up. She also later texted us asking if we would keep the dog because she no longer wanted her anymore. I have text messages documenting these conversations. Rather than turning our backs on the situation, we opened our home to this dog, paid for her care, spent days with her, and worked to find her a safe future. We had absolutely nothing to gain--we simply didn't want an abandoned dog to end up in danger. The dog also had a reported bite history, making the situation even more serious. I expected the rescue to recognize the gravity of what had happened and work collaboratively to ensure the dog's safety and the safety of the public. Instead, I was met with defensiveness and hostility. During my conversation with the rescue, I was told the owner was "a good person" despite the fact that she had intentionally abandoned the dog, later admitted she no longer wanted her, and asked us to keep her permanently. My concerns were dismissed, and I was spoken to disrespectfully despite the fact that I had stepped in solely to help. I fully understand that the rescue may have had the legal right to take the dog back. That is not my issue. My issue is the complete lack of professionalism, accountability, and appreciation shown toward someone who volunteered their own time, money, and home to protect one of their dogs after it had been abandoned. When they picked the dog up, they refused to provide even a general reassurance about her future or care. While I understand not disclosing confidential information such as a foster or trainer's identity, the complete lack of transparency only added to my concern. I hope Athena is ultimately safe and receives the training and responsible placement she deserves. I also hope this rescue reflects on how it communicates with members of the public who step in to protect animals in crisis. Kindness, accountability, and professionalism should never be too much to ask.
