Community Resources

We have to work together to make a difference.

Unfortunately, we cannot provide help to everyone in our community. We are a small rescue that operates without a shelter and survives completely on community donations and grants when available. Although it breaks our heart that we are unable to help every cat in need, we do our best to provide information to people looking for help. Together we can work to make the world a better place for cats.

Below is information we gathered about local community resources. If you are seeking help with an animal, be sure to check all of your options.

The Cat People

Rescue - Foster - Adopt - since 1990

The Cat People is an outstanding, 100% volunteer organization that was founded to eliminate the suffering of unwanted cats and kittens. A group of women started working together over 20 years ago to help the abandoned cats and kittens in Hart Park in Kern County. Today, the organization has an official contract with the county to manage the colonies in Hart Park, and it provides spay/neuter vouchers and food to low income families to assist them in keeping their beloved pets and/or to control growth of colonies around their homes. It operates completely out of foster homes, and the organization works with Petco to hold adoption hours once a week.
