The Temple City Animal Control, which is a shelter for stray, unwanted, and owner-rendered animals, including dogs and cats, in Los Angeles County, offers temporary housing and care.

As a 501c3 Non-Profit Organization, Southern California Cat Adoption Tails relies almost entirely on donations from our friends and supporters to run our rescue.

The largest open-admission animal shelter in Pasadena and a thriving 501(c)(3) is The Service Animal Foundation. "Save the lives of all healthy and curable animals in Pasadena and Los Angeles County," is their stated goal.

By providing compassionate care, educating the local community, taking preventative measures, and using strong enforcement, we are a national leader in safeguarding people and animals.a

With over 70,000 animals arriving each year, the County of Los Angeles Department of Animal Care and Control is overrun with unwanted animals. There are still not enough adoptive homes available despite significant attempts to place these animals in new homes and reunite lost animals with their owners. 

The San Gabriel Valley Humane Society is dedicated to giving the animals under our care a compassionate environment. With the commitment of our staff and volunteers, we work to place all of our companion animals in loving, long-term homes and to offer chances to strengthen the link between people and animals.
