Help Save Kittens
Donation protected
I'm embarking on an adventure I never thought I would...rescuing kittens. Our local shelter euthanizes any kitten under a pound and has a very short hold time on kittens under two pounds. I am currently trying to fix up a spare room in our house that will be able to house these rescued kittens in a healthy environment. I've already spent my own monies to fix a mold problem which included digging a large trench through our back yard to carry water away from our house, ripping out carpet, spraying mold and putting vinyl flooring down on half the room, but I am out of funds in our personal account. So I am turning to you for help to raise money to finish the kitten room so we can save more of these precious little kitties.
The orphaned kittens I rescue are all under two pounds. I take them in, feed them, love them and medicate them when they are ill. At eight-weeks old, they are spay or neutered and adopted out to good homes. My goal is to just give these little lives a fighting chance instead of being disposed of like yesterday's garbage.
I currently have nine in my unfinished kitten room, but I have thirteen more in quarantine that will need to come out and mix with the general population, but I have no where to put them as of right now. The 8x10 foot area that I have completed is not big enough to hold that many kittens healthily. When I'm able to expand and finish the room it will be a total of 10x24 feet which should be able to hold up to twenty kittens.
All money raised will go towards the kitten room. My first goal is to finish the flooring across the entire room. Then I will need to purchase more litter boxes, more water and food bowls, a cat tree (for vertical square footage), cages that allow better venalation and water run to the room and a sink so I am able to wash up in the kitten room and provide a sanitary condition without having to run through my house to the kitchen or bathroom.
Any money left over will go towards food, litter, cleaning supplies, medication and vet bills for the babies.
