The Siamese Rescue family is pleased to announce that effective immediately, Southern California Siamese Rescue (SoCSR) and Pacific Siamese Rescue (PSR) will be pooling resources and working closely together to better serve California. The two non-profit Rescue Organizations will remain separate for now, in order to address the special needs of Siamese in each area, along with providing volunteers and adopters in each region a local presence, resources, and a social media outlet. Several key Board members will sit on the Board of both groups, and the SoCSR Executive Director will also serve as PSR Executive Director at this time. California Siamese Rescue was formed in 2001 and split into Pacific Siamese Rescue and Southern California Siamese Rescue in 2005. Since 2001, these groups have rescued, fostered, and adopted out over 4500 Siamese cats and kittens. Originally, the division into two groups was primarily to address the special needs of and to concentrate resources in the Southern California and Northern California regions. But, given the advances in social media and online technology in the last 12 years, the two groups recognize that they can do more for California’s Siamese cats and kittens by working together. Over the past 16 years, Siamese Rescue in California has rescued, fostered, provided vet care for, and adopted needy Siamese cats and kittens in and around California. Our volunteers are knowledgeable rescuers and passionate about ensuring that abused, abandoned, and neglected Siamese cats and kittens are placed in caring and attentive homes. Nationally, the member groups of the Siamese Rescue family have rescued almost 24000 Siamese cats and kittens, since their founding.
To begin the Adoption process, complete these simple steps: Review our Adoption Policies; Read Why Rescue; If you would like an application please email us at: [email protected]. Once you have submitted and paid the application - If you've had any pets in the past 2 years, your Vet will need to complete a Vet Reference Form (we'll give it to you during the application process). Your application will then be checked for completeness and then assigned to an Interviewer who will contact your References. You will receive instructions by email on completing an online Questionnaire and Pet Chart to help the Interviewer prepare for their phone interview with you. Once these steps have been completed, your Interviewer will arrange a time for the interview. (NOTE: While basic reference checks are sometimes completed in 3-5 days, the adoption approval process can take up to two weeks depending on response time from personal references, vets, and other requirements. We are volunteers, but you can be assured we are working as hard as we can to process your application as quickly as we can.) Once the interview is complete, and you have been Approved - You will discuss the specifics of the cat(s) you are interested in with the Fosters and your Interviewer. We work very hard to ensure we match each cat with the right situation. Once a cat has been selected - Transport for your new Meezer is your responsability, but we will work with you to help arrange transport as much as possible. Pacific Siamese Rescue respects your privacy and will NOT under any circumstances sell or share your information with anyone outside of our organization without your express written permission.
