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 is simple and lifelong: to rescue as many cats as possible. Every adoption makes space to save another friendly, homeless kitten or cat in need. With an estimated 60 to 100 million homeless cats in the United States, the need is urgent. If you'd like to visit our adoption lounge, we kindly ask that you fill out our adoption application first. 

Summer is here, and while the days are long & hot, there's nothing better than coming home to the comfort of a loving feline friend. So many wonderful cats & kittens are waiting for a forever home, each with so much love to give. We may rescue them, but the truth is they rescue us right back, with companionship, laughter, comfort & unconditional love. Open your heart this summer & discover just how much a cat can change your life.  

Saturday, July 18th, we are opening late, 3pm to 5pm. I have a family affair.   Text me before you come to make sure I am there 562-447-7462.   

We have lots of kittens not posted yet, come meet them & reserve your baby now!! 

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! 

Violet found the best way to spend the day (14yr old volunteer), surrounded by kittens. Available for adotpion soon.
