So no one told you life was gonna be this way...meet Rachel, apart of GREEN Street Rescue's foster program! Rachel was rescued along with her two kittens this summer and could not stop cuddling! Now that Rachel's two kittens were adopted, it's now this little lady's turn to find her FURRever home!

Rachel's foster writes: she is super sweet and friendly with everyone, but she's especially sweet to me :) She always greets me at the door when I come home and she follows me around everywhere, even to the bathroom!! She also likes to sleep right next to me even during naps so there's really never a lonely moment with her around. She's very affectionate and curious and rubs her face on everything!! She's gotten a lot more energetic in the past month or so and she loves to run around and play with her toys (especially the small mouse ones). She's also a big foodie and will make these really cute chirping noises when she smells food haha. She's an amazing cat and everyone who meets her falls in love with her instantly, I would love for her to find her forever home but I would definitely miss her tons!

Welcome to Foster Friday, where we feature our wonderful kitties in foster care each Friday at Green Street Rescue. These cats are all available for adoption, even if they aren't at our cafe location! All of our cats can be viewed on our website at https://www.greenstreetrescue.org/cats-for-adoption/.

It's our itsy, bitsy foster kitty: BITSY!

Looking for a feline friend who’s equal parts cuddly, curious, and full of personality? Bitsy is your purr-fect match!This sweet kitty is a professional snuggler who will happily curl up with you for naps, movie nights, or just because she’s feels like it. But don’t let the calm moments fool you—every night Bitsy will entertain you with her parkour/zoomie performance and sometimes thinks petting is just another form of playtime. Bitsy has a few quirky passions: shoes, anything stringy, and—above all—dinner time! Food is the fastest way to this cutie’s heart. Wherever you go, expect a black and white shadow—Bitsy loves to follow their favorite humans around the house, just to be close and involved in everything you're doing. If you’re ready for endless cuddles, constant companionship, and a cat with character, Bitsy is waiting to meet you.

Green Street Rescue and Le Cat Cafe are feeling extra grateful for the amazing humans who rescued, fostered, and adopted kitties this year.
500+ rescues in the Philly area is paws-itively impressive—but turning so many of those into fur-ever homes is the real magic. Thanks to you, tiny kittens rescued from tough starts and wise older cats who waited patiently are ringing in the new year safe, warm, and very loved.
Angelo, Lady, Nightwish, Billabong, Lois, and so many more are sending purrs of thanks. Let’s keep the love (and the adoptions!) rolling into 2026

Meet Anita! She needs-a FURREVER HOME!

If you've been to Le Cat Cafe earlier this year, you may have met this sassy gal guarding the front desk. Our chonky supervisor has since gone into a foster home and is having the best time! Dubbed Sweet Annie by her foster, Anita has become a cuddle bug! She loves making biscuits and waiting in the bathroom for you to get out of the shower. Anita loves bird watching and playing with toys. If it’s sunny outside you’ll find her laying in whatever ray of light she can find. If you sit down, she will be on your lap in less than 60 seconds.

Anita would do perfect in an adult-only home, without other pets. Anita is meant for the spotlight, and is not a fan of other felines.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from all of us at Le Cat Cafe & Green Street Rescue! Mopps here was adopted in 2025, but Santa fortunately found her new address.

The café cats are looking forward to seeing you this weekend! We’re open again tomorrow.

Meet our musical foster, Patsy Klein! Patsy is a sweet, cuddly 6-year-old lady with tons of pizzazz who wants nothing more than for you to scratch her belly and nuzzle her face. Patsy Klein would prefer to be your one and only feline in the nest, though she does okay with calm dogs that don't get up in her business. She also does well with kids! “Have You Ever Been Lonely?” You’d be “Crazy” not to “Fall to Pieces” for this delightful tuxedo cat who is low-shedding and rarely goes “Walkin’ After Midnight.” Fill out an application to take this charming gal home today (she will even croon for fishy treats)!

It's time to meet GSR's chonkiest foster!

Meet STEVE! Steve is a charming, big man who loves all the attention he can get. Steve loves to show off his cuteness by showing off his big belly and loving purrs. Despite his size, Steve does loves to play and run around! Steve would do best by himself, for he is not fond of most cats. However, he loves all the humans he can find - Steve would do great with any number of humans in the house. Steve is a big fan of following you around, sleeping in bed with you, and being the sweetest cat ever.

Our Story

Green Street Rescue is a network of volunteers dedicated to rescuing stray and homeless in Philadelphia.

Our mission: • rescue stray & homeless cats • manage feral populations with TNRM (trap, neuter, release, manage) practices • find foster & furrrrever homes for friendly cats and place unfriendly cats with barns

As a 501(c)3 non-profit, we function entirely on donations and the generosity of our volunteers. If you are interested in contributing to our mission, we welcome your donations here.

GSR also operates Le Cat Cafe, a Parisian style cat cafe in the Brewerytown neighborhood of Philadelphia. Visit us for self-serve coffee, a relaxing atmosphere and meet 12 of our adoptable cats.
