North Long Beach Cat Rescue is a grassroots, neighborhood animal welfare group focused on responsible cat colony management, including trap-neuter/spay-return practices, procurement of medical care for community cats in need, and animal welfare advocacy for outdoor cats.

Established in 2023, we successfully saved over 30 cats on one neighborhood block in our first months through TNR efforts.

In 2023-24, we found homes for adoptable kittens found during our TNR efforts. While we didn’t start out as a foster/adoption focused rescue, we quickly realized that our TNR efforts would often lead to adoptable, socialized cats and kittens who were better suited for the indoor life. We continue our foster/adoption programs, most recently becoming a PetSmart Charities Adoption Partner, with our currently available cats and kittens at the PetSmart Compton store.

Kittens and colony cats alike remind us daily of our passion for this work - and our work has only just begun!
