Meet PeanutButter!

Cute Peanutbutter.jpg

PeanutButter is just 7 weeks old. She's a very lucky dilute calico because a friendly lady found her and saved her life. Poor Peanut had a bad abscess in her neck due to an injury, but we're not sure how it happened. What we do know is Peanut would have died if she hadn't gotten the loving care she needed.

The good news is that Peanut's injury is healing up, she's healthy, happy and ready to find her forever home. Some of her fur had to be shaved away to help heal her wound, but other than that she's a loving and playful little girl. If you're interested in adopting Peanut, just fill out a Pre-Adoption application HERE.

Welcome, Milo!

Milo is our newest foster kitten! He and his two brothers were taken in by our Vet, Dr. Chris Mixon of the Newtown Veterinary Center. Dr Mixon has a big heart when it comes to little cats and when Milo and his littermates, Otis and Boogie arrived, sick and skinny, Dr. Mixon made sure the cats got the care they needed.

We were more than happy to help find Otis a loving home and Boogie is lucky to have found a great home with one of the staff at NVC. That leaves Milo, so we brought him into our foster program. He's a sweet cat, loves to play, purr and eat his nom-noms!

Milo will have a medium long fur coat and due to his long whiskers we think he may be a big kitty when he grows up. Milo is only 3 months old!

Meet Fred & Barney

Fred & Barney are approaching their 4th week birthday. These adorable little munchkins were born to a mother who is only 9 months old. Although we love these little fellas immensely we wish their mama had been spayed to avoid her the difficult labor and the loss of two of her kittens a few days after they were born.

Fred & Barney will be available for adoption some time in September. Stay tuned for more updates!

Help Pom Pom Walk

We tried. We tried so hard, but now we need you.

Pom Pom Pomegranate has no chance of walking without discomfort unless we remove her back left leg. It’s taken us 10 months, specialist visits, tests, treatments, and zillions of hours of physical therapy to come to this decision. We need all of you to make it happen.

We need to raise $6,000. by March 9th.

Give Pom Pom the gift of less pain and a chance to walk more easily.

You can use PayPal

Checks: made out to Kitten Associates, P.O. Box 354, Newtown, CT 06470-0354

Why Now?

Pom Pom is almost a year old. Her body will not improve beyond what we've been able to do for her.

Imagine you have to keep your leg stretched out. You can’t bend it. You can’t support yourself on your foot because it bends backward at an awkward angle. The weight of the malformed leg forces your back to twist unnaturally. It causes shocks of nerve pain. How can you live like that?

Pom Pom can’t continue to live like this.

We know there are surgical risks. We’ve done extra testing to be as safe as we can be. Will this surgery make everything perfect? No, but her back leg hinders her mobility, so we feel this is her best option. We have to try for Pom Pom.

 We can do it with you by our side.

Your gift is tax-deductible as we are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
