About us
A unique animal care group
We serve mostly central Indianapolis, but we also assist several remote counties and occasionally some of the surrounding states. Our focus is on unwanted or stray pregnant cats and litters of kittens. We provide a safe and loving environment for our rescued cats and give our Mom cats the prenatal care and nutrition needed to deliver healthy kittens. We make available comfortable and quiet settings where they can give birth to their kittens and post-natal care so that they can nurse wholesome kittens.
Post-natal care includes vaccinations and spaying once the kittens are weaned. Our kittens are provided vet examinations, vaccinations and adopted into loving and committed families.
Newborn and very young kittens require special care
Especially if their mother cat is not around to care for them. Unfortunately, it is easy for well-meaning people to do the wrong thing when they are trying to help, and we have had kittens who could not be saved because of mistakes that were made in the hours between the time they were found and the time they were brought to us. So, whether or not you plan to bring a newly-found kitten to us or another rescue, we encourage you to look at the tab on Raising Orphan Kittens if you have questions about how to give a newborn kitten the care it needs.
Why do we do this?
Find homes for homeless cats and kittens
Part of the answer, of course, is that it can be rewarding to minister to kittens and mother cats. It is also satisfying to find homes for homeless cats and kittens and know we are filling a gap in our society’s animal welfare plan. But in a bigger sense, we believe that cats are God’s creatures, designed and created by God with all other living things. In fact, we like to imagine that God created cats and kittens with their bouncy personalities to lighten us up a bit and make us smile.
Each time a kitten is born and new life is created, it is a gift from God and a reminder of God’s perfection and diety.
