The Rescue House is a non-profit, volunteer based organization dedicated to assisting cats through it's rescue, foster and adoption activities. We find loving homes for unwanted, abandoned, homeless and injured cats, regardless of age and often of handicap. We are a true no-kill cat rescue organization and find homes for each cat we take in.
Since our inception in 1999, we have rescued over 19,500 cats. We have 5 adoption centers throughout San Diego County, located in pet stores and businesses that work with us and share our philosophy.
Our volunteers play a crucial role in that they provide foster care until the cats are ready to enter an adoption center. Our only source of funding is from the generous donations we receive from caring individuals and organizations. Since we have no physical brick and morter, all donations go to the care of our cats.
We provide education to increase public awareness of responsible pet ownership and an aggressive spay/neuter program.
