Paws in the Sand Cat Rescue

Cat rescue in Long Beach, CA

Paws in the Sand Cat Rescue is dedicated to saving the lives of cats in Southern California. Our mission is to rescue cats from high-kill shelters, and rehome abandoned cats, giving them a second chance at life. In addition to rescue and rehoming, we are passionately committed to supporting community cats through Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) services. This humane approach reduces the number of unwanted kittens and promotes healthier cat colonies. By partnering with local shelters, veterinarians and our local community, we aim to create a safer environment for all cats. At Paws in the Sand, we believe every cat deserves a chance. Our work is driven by compassion, dedication, and a commitment to making a lasting impact on the lives of our cat communities.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is designed with the pet and the family in mind. We look to make the process as easy and efficient as possible for our adopters, while also preserving the key safeguards that ensure we place our kitties with loving homes they can be sure to stay with forever. Sometimes we may ask for a virtual home visit via video or FaceTime to gain more insight into what kind of kitty will best fit your lifestyle and environment.
