Happy Strays Rescue
Happy Strays Rescue is a not for profit rescue organization that cares for stray, abandoned and orphaned cats and kittens. All of our cats are attended to medically; each is spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and tested for FeLv/FIV. We then begin the search for loving and permanent indoor only homes.
FEATURED CAT OF THE MONTH:
Mamasita is a 1 1/2 year old sweetheart who would make a great family pet. She needs to be your one and only four legged critter as she wants all of your attention to herself! You can come and meet her on Saturdays at Petco in Santa Clarita. For more information, email Megann at megann@happystrays.org.

ADOPTION POLICY:
It is the policy of our organization to require a financial donation* when adopting a cat/kitten. This donation only partially covers the cost of feeding, vaccinations, spay/neuter, flea treatments and other medical attention covered by the rescue's funds. *Please check with your accountant with regard to your adoption donation being tax deductible.
We use the following guidelines:
All animals placed are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and tested. Additional care is provided as needed to ensure the health of each animal. To the best of our knowledge, all the animals we show at our adoption events are in good health.
We have invested a great deal in our "rescues", and want you and your new kitty to have a long lasting relationship together. We offer an exchange policy if a cat does not adjust at your home after a reasonable time period. The owner may return a cat to us for any reason.
All of our cats and kittens are fostered in individual volunteer fosters homes. To inquire about a specific kitty or to request that a cat be brought to our Saturday adoptions at the La Canada PETCO to meet you, please email Happy Strays with your contact information and comments.
Are you thinking of adopting a kitty and joining the Happy Strays community of adopting familes? Visit our Happy Strays and Happy Tales (link in title above) and read letter and view photos from some of our wonderful kitties who found equally wonderful new homes!
Have you brought a Happy Strays kitty home? We'd love to hear how you're all doing and post your stories to our adoption blog! Send your notes and photos to us by email, or stop by PETCO during our Saturday adoption events with your kitty for a free nail trim!
