The Cat Posse

The Cat Posse Because every cat deserves a loving, *forever* home... We are currently caring for 200 cats, and 110 of these cats are up for adoption.

The Cat Posse’s mission is to rescue and rehabilitate unwanted and abused cats in Southern California and to educate communities about the importance of spaying and neutering their cats. We believe that all animals deserve dignity and kindness, and we work toward the day when all public shelters will have a “no kill” policy. The Cat Posse is entirely operated and driven by a group of dedicated vol

unteers who rescue, rehabilitate, foster and adopt out cats. Approximately 50% of the cats in our care are ten years or older, and many have special needs. We have cats with thyroid, dental, eye and intestinal diseases; cats who need fluids on a regular basis, cats who have respiratory problems, cancer, and cats who periodically need surgeries for a variety of reasons. Our experience has shown that many of our cats, due to age, special needs, or temperament, will most likely not be adopted. These cats will remain with us, receiving loving care, for the rest of their lives. The Cat Posse does not have a shelter per se; rather, we maintain numerous volunteer foster homes in Southern California, primarily in Pasadena, Altadena, Tujunga and the San Fernando Valley. The cats we take in are strays, owner surrenders or selected from the local Humane Societies. We are fully committed to the cats in our care and it is a privilege to serve them.

  You’ve seen your cat licking their lips countless times. Cats are known for their fastidious grooming habits so it’s perfectly logical to assume frequent lip licking is just a normal part of feline hygiene, right? Is there ever a reason to be concerned about this behavior? Lip licking is norm...

✨Adoption Story✨

From being trapped inside of a wall as a kitten with his brother (that had to be torn apart to get them out), Logan is luxuriating on his enormous new cat tree in his new home☺️💖🐈‍⬛

Logan’s new owner looked at at least 100(!) other cat profiles before stumbling across his perfect match 🖤

Logan started the day at his new home by exploring the house and just a day later was sleeping next to his new parent 🥹

We feel so happy that this sweet house panther has found his forever with his new family that cares deeply about providing important cat furniture 😺 and most importantly - love.

Happy Life sweet boy!

Respect what your cat is communicating when it comes to interaction, and it will go a long way in strengthening the bond you share.

Cats can't see in complete darkness but they can see in conditions so dim that we would consider it totally dark.

Cats are fascinating, smart, and loving companion animals. Understanding your own cat’s behaviors and communication methods will help you build a strong bond, prevent or resolve behavior problems, and set your kitty up to live a healthy, happy life.

Litter box liners may seem like a time saver but they actually create more work and aren't very claw-friendly.

✨Adoption Story✨

Perhaps one of the longest awaited adoption stories we have… Coco!! 💖😻🐈

This beauty has been waiting since 2023 for her forever home and she’s finally found it. A crossword and snuggle partner is the perfect role for her 🫶

Coco’s new parent say that she is already very attached to them and loves being pet - as we know she does 🥹

Here’s what volunteers of our have said about Coco:

“She is very sweet
I found her sleeping and she let
me pick her up and carry her to the cat tree where I took pics.”

“She is so cute. Every night when we start to feed, she gets in her little spot and waits for her bowl. Since moving to this place, she’s doing so much better with other cats and even touches noses with some of them!”

After being dropped off at a kill shelter we’re so happy she has found her FOREVER!

We love you Coco, happy life!

We have created a new mini doc about this past year in the lives of Sharon and the Cat Posse team after the traumatic Eaton fire.

Sharon’s story was shared with thousands and we saw how the community rose up at this desperate time of need.

We are excited to continue to rebuild and Sharon and the volunteers have not given up hope for the future 😺❤️!

Sharon does not skip a beat when it comes to the cats and we couldn’t be more grateful for her leadership.

Thank you for watching and supporting us as always! We have a link below for the GoFundMe as well as the Race for the Rescues fundraiser if you choose to donate.

Cat parents who have a multicat household certainly want their cats to live together harmoniously. However, feline social behavior is deeply influenced by a natural need for resource security, and that’s a factor easy to overlook.

While it may seem convenient to have one shared food bowl in the kitchen or a single large litter box for all the cats, these setups can become sources of tension. Forcing cats to share isn’t always a good thing. Their comfort and security depend on having adequate and accessible resources without the threat of intimidation or competition.

Even if there appears to be enough food for everyone, one cat may perceive the situation differently. Similarly, one cat might avoid using a litter box if it’s located within another cat’s core area. These subtle stressors can lead to conflict, marking, or litter box avoidance.

Identify areas of conflict so you can make changes. Each cat should have easy access to essential resources (food and water bowls, litter boxes, scratching posts, and resting areas). Distribute these items throughout the home to reduce competition and allow each cat to feel secure.

GREAT NEWS 🙏 Greta got pulled, and AFLAR is helping with all her medical bills, and we might even have a foster for her! Greta is in medical boarding. She is getting a convenia injection and medicated baths and antibiotics for skin issues, an ear flush and Claro treatment for a bad ear infection, and she will be getting X-rays to find our what the mass on her forehead is. She just went into heat, so she is not pregnant, though we think she has been used for breeding. We’ve got a big bill for diagnostics, medical treatment, and medical boarding already… over $1,400. And we’re not sure if she’ll need surgery for the mass on her forehead. PLEASE HONOR YOUR PLEDGES & SEND DONATIONS TO AFLAR, as we will be paying the vet directly.
