Our Story

Southern California Siamese Rescue was born early in 2005, when we decided to divide California Siamese Rescue (CASR) into 2 separate, but closely aligned groups: Southern California and Pacific Siamese Rescues. CASR was a terrific organization and we were able to rescue hundreds of Siamese cats and kittens, but California is a very large state but after much thought, we felt we could provide more and better service to the cats and kittens we rescue if we became two groups.

We've always been amazed at the number of homeless Siamese in the shelters and on the streets. Because of the nature of the Siamese cat, they don't do well in shelters and because of the hazards of civilization; they don't do well on the streets. That's where we come in. We work extensively with shelters and individuals to save these cats before they are euthanized in the shelters or killed on the streets. We feel that it is not the cat's fault that they become homeless and in order to make sure they don't end up that way again, we provide thorough screening of potential adopters before sending any of our cats to their 'forever' homes.
