Toni's Kitty Rescue

Our Mission

Toni's Kitty Rescue is dedicated to rescuing sweet, vulnerable cats and kittens from homelessness, providing them with the ultimate head start in nurturing foster homes. We believe every life is precious and work tirelessly to ensure each kitten gets the love, cuddles, and care needed to grow up strong.

Our History

Founded by Toni Sestak in 2003, our organization grew from a simple observation that orphaned, underage kittens in municipal shelters desperately needed a safe place to thrive. What began with a small group of passionate volunteers has blossomed into a community-wide mission that rescues 350 to 400 cats and kittens every year.

Our Care Model

We are a proud 501(c)(3) nonprofit that operates entirely through a dedicated, active network of volunteer foster homes. Instead of keeping our rescues in traditional kennels, we provide them with individualized attention in a cozy home environment. This approach allows our kittens to socialize and feel safe while they wait for their forever families.

Your Partner in Adoption

We believe that adopting a kitten—or a bonded pair—is a joyful partnership that brings love, fun, and cuteness into your home. Because we know each kitten's personality intimately through their foster families, we focus on thoughtful matching to ensure a perfect fit for both you and your new feline companion. We are here to guide you through every step of our process, from your first application to welcoming your new family member home.

10/10 - Lucky Charm is looking for his forever home! This is a courtesy post for a friend of Toni's Kitty Rescue. If you are interested in adopting, please contact Damia at the number or email below. Hi there! My name is Lucky Charm, and I’m an 18 month-young gentleman on the hunt for my forever home. I earned the name “Lucky” because I was rescued, and “Charm” because my foster mom says I’m equal parts sweet and charming—awww, shucks! I am an outgoing, super friendly guy who adapts to new environments in the blink of an eye. Humans and other cats are my absolute favorite companions. If you already have pets, I’ll seamlessly blend into your household as long as they don’t mind a handsome new buddy to play and cuddle with. Prefer to keep me all to yourself? I’m more than happy to be your one-and-only solo boy! My Daily Routine & Vibe - The Ultimate Co-Pilot: I love hanging out while you work from home, streaming your favorite TV shows, or relaxing around the house. - Perfectly Balanced: I’m independent enough to keep myself entertained, but affectionate enough to stick by your side. - Cuddle Champion: My absolute favorite spot at the end of the day is sleeping right next to my human. Health & Vetting I’m a healthy kiddo who is fully vetted and ready to go! I am neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and FIV/FeLV tested negative. If you’re ready to add a little extra luck and a lot of charm to your life, please reach out to my friend Damia Foti at 650-339-6619 or email her at missdamia@gmail.com to schedule a meet-and-greet!
