Welcome to The Cat Adoption Lounge in Whittier, CA.

Mary’s Kit-Cat Adoption Lounge, Inc.

Hello. My name is Mary Venegas and I love Cats!!

Welcome to the speakeasy Cat Adoption Lounge.  My mission in life is to rescue as many cats as possible before I die!!  Every adoption allows me to rescue another friendly homeless kitten & cat.  To visit our Adoption Cat Lounge we ask you to fill out the Adoption Application.

We had a great weekend!!  Sideways, a semi-shy cat I rescued from a hoarding situation in March 2022, was finally adopted into the perfect home. After being returned earlier this year, she's now with a loving mom & a three-legged cat I've had for a year who was never even posted, which I know will help her adjust. I couldn't be happier  for both of them!! 

April showers bring quiet moments, the perfect time to visit our adoption lounge, curl up with a cat, and find the one that steals your heart!! 

Our Mission

We're dedicated to saving kittens and friendly homeless cats, nurturing them with care, and united them with families who will love them for life.

How I got started

I was driving to work one day in 2016 and came upon a junkyard in Santa Fe Springs where there was a colony of cats. I spayed/neutered 41+ cats and was able to place (find a home) for all the kittens and a few of the friendlier cats. This began my venture of fixing feral, community, and homeless cats. This process is called TNR; “Trap, Neuter & Return”.

Now a days I do less TNR but more Cat rescue and Cat adoptions.  The supply of friendly homeless Cats is endless. With God's blessings and my Cat friends we are savings lots of Cats.   

If you'd like to visit our adoption lounge but are NOT ready to adopt a cat, email me. I would love to show you our place.  We could use volunteers on the weekends. We need pooper scooters (not fun but necessary) and help keeping the place clean.  When we are done with the chores it's time to love on the cats.  Keep them stimulated & happy!
