                GOOD NEWS! WE'RE IN THE NEWS AND FELINE DOGGONE PROUD!
We were honored to be interviewed by Beacon Media! They did a great short article on the work we do with animals and printed it online and in various local free weekly newspapers. Here's the link to the article, and we hope you'll read it.  Click for the article.

WELCOME

Lifeline for Pets is a no-kill animal rescue group based in Pasadena, California.  We provide care for homeless cats until a loving home can be found for them.  We have many adorable and loving pets waiting for their forever homes. Our goal is to help these deserving animals have a long, happy life!

We know you have many choices, but the best reasons for you to adopt from us are:

• a) being a small rescue, we know our cats extremely well and we work hard to find the best homes and the best fit for a win-win situation;
• b) we are no-kill, unlike some of the large facilities, and we have excellent veterinary partnerships to insure that our cats and kittens are in the best of health;
• c) after you adopt, we are always there for you.

Brief History of Lifeline for Pets

Lifeline for Pets was formed in 1981 upon the joining of forces of Lynne Jordan and Midge Poynter, two devoted Pasadena-based animal rescuers. We were incorporated in California in 1982 with the aim to rescue animals who would lead lives of misery or not survive. The organization and its volunteers have been devoted to rescuing cats and dogs, placing them up for adoption, or if unadoptable, providing lifetime shelter and care. All animals that come into our care are spayed or neutered. For Lifeline for Pets, rescue means taking full responsibility for the lives and care of cats and dogs. We love them for life!

Our Mission: To improve the lives of companion animals (dogs and cats) by:

• Rescuing them from neglectful and/or hazardous situations;
• Placing them with carefully screened families selected for their love of animals and the security of their homes;
• Promoting and encouraging spay and neutering;
• Assisting needy pet owners with veterinarian bills when funds permit.
