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.

📍Race starts at 8:30 am at The Rose Bowl in Pasadena.

On November 15, lots of humans (and even their dogs!) will participate in the Race for the Rescues.

You will have the opportunity to walk or run on behalf of the cats of Cat Posse!! From getting cats off the street, away from abusive or neglectful situations, rehabilitating their health and finding their forever homes - we do it all. With everything that happened this past year we can never be too prepared for what might happen next and we’re beyond appreciative for the support we have from our Cat Posse community.

If you would like to support us in raising money by walking, running, doing your own walk virtually, bein’ a couch potato or by donating you can visit the Linktree in our bio! Thank you everyone ❤️

✨Alumni Story✨

We love featuring Benny and his forever family ❤️ His parents said this recently: “He still loves to play and snuggle. And he sleeps right next to my head on my pillow at night. He’s getting spoiled, as he should. Poor guy had a rough life. I’m just glad he’s now living large!”

Benny is a reminder of what YOUR support pays for. Found on the street with the extremely painful and uncomfortable ailment stomatitis as well as an eye condition while being FIV positive (photo 3 shows him drooling and his right eye nearly shut) to now playing and cuddling with his siblings Buster and Aloysius while sleeping on a pillow every night 🧡 He was an unexpected case for Cat Posse, but we had all the treatments needed to fix the stomatitis and entropion then he was fostered and then adopted - this is why we love this work!!

Things can feel grim, but we see the light at the end of the tunnel at Cat Posse and nothing can stop Sharon and the volunteers. We thank you all for your love and support for us this year and always!

We have placed our Race for the Rescues link to register to join our team or donate in our linktree in our bio or you can email Sharon at [email protected] for more information. ❤️

Please share and hope to see you guys at the race!

If you live with more than one cat, try to find time to do individual play sessions with each one.

People get Staffys confused with an aggressive dog breed.

Cats have the reputation for being aloof, and although it’s not an accurate assessment, some of that interpretation comes from the fact that cats are known for sleeping much of the day. For people who don’t like cats or aren’t familiar with them, it may seem as if cats don’t “do” anything and just rely on humans to supply an endless supply of food. If you take a moment to really look at why cats sleep the way they do, you’ll end up with an entirely different perspective and a new respect for how a cat’s body works so efficiently.

When offering cat grass to your cat, monitor to make sure too much isn't consumed at once. The fiber in grass can be a wonderful aid in reducing hairballs but too much at once isn't a good thing. If your cat periodically munches on the cat grass then you can leave it out for extended periods. However, if your cat tends to consume too much at once, bring out the grass for supervised munching or snip a few blades to mix into food.

If your cat is attracted to chewing on houseplants, offering cat grass can be a safe alternative. It's best to keep all houseplants out of reach because almost all are toxic to cats.
