Santa Barbara, CA
An independent nonprofit serving Santa Barbara County with cat and dog adoptions alongside veterinary services and community programmes.
Seniors for Seniors: cats 7 years and older are $25 for adopters who qualify. Adoption fees are waived entirely for Lonely Hearts Club animals, which are long-stay residents.
The adoption fee covers spay or neuter surgery, a health exam, vaccinations, a feline leukemia test and microchipping.
Email the shelter with your contact details, the name or ID of the cat you are interested in, and the best time to reach you, and staff will schedule an adoption appointment.
Estimated by applying the AVMA's 2024 national cat-ownership rate (32.1% of households) to the county's real household count from the Census Bureau — a national rate applied locally, not a local survey. Population and housing figures are from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey.
