Baleen is a deeply sensitive, cautious cat who prefers calm environments and safe hiding spaces. While reserved at first, she reliably comes out for meals and seeks affection when she feels secure—especially when her person is lying down. When she’s ready, Baleen offers intense headbutts and close snuggles, pressing herself lovingly against her person’s side. She remains watchful during affection and does best with slow, head-only petting to avoid overstimulation. Baleen thrives on predictability and routine. She would be happiest with a patient adopter who respects her boundaries and allows trust to grow at her pace. To meet Baleen, visit the Best Friends Pet Adoption Center at 1845 Pontius Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90025. We're open daily from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm. You can also email us at adoptla@bestfriends.org. Please remember, pets cannot be held or reserved. Come by and see if Baleen is the perfect match for you!

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
