We are more than thrilled to honor the winners, our Founder & President, Robin A.F. Olson, for her blog post, “Dear Fred,” a love letter to an ailing foster kitten on his last day. Fred had FIP, a fatal disease, and passed away in May of this year. Robin will be donating her prize money to Kitten Associates.

Ingrid King, who writes The Conscious Cat blog, won Best Overall Pet blog and she, too, has offered Kitten Associates her $1000.00 donation!

Congratulations to the Winners and THANK YOU so much for the donations. It helps us keep our doors open and save more lives, like Biscotti & Pizzelle, pictured below who were rescued a few days ago.

Help Pom Pom Walk

By on February 26, 2025

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.
