Saving Ava Kittens - Ava, MO

11/06/2025

Wishlist Thursday 😛 Still have many fixed and vaccinated kittens available for adoption, that still need care every day! I have four very small kittens on formula so that is a need right now (Fox Valley-in any size). They are also in need of medicine/vet care, due to URI symptoms 😢 Thank you for your support 💕🐈‍⬛

Having to take care of this amount of kittens is not feasible and I am seeking eligible adopters immediately to clear the shelter so I can reset and reevaluate, and complete a very deep clean of the facility. This is not sustainable. I set out to help dumped, abandoned, and stray kittens. The need is far greater than one person can meet. Every day, I feel overwhelm, pressure, anxiety, and burnout. I can’t keep up and I can’t keep relying on the few trusted volunteers and donors that I do have (who I am forever grateful for).

It has always been the goal to find the best homes, and while I am eager to do so, I will not adopt kittens to you if I know that you frequently get rid of the animals that you adopt-then get new ones, if you declaw the cats/kittens, if you seek to solely keep them as outdoor only “pets”, etc. While I do have some that are eligible for the *right* barns and shops, all of these kittens have been indoors their whole lives, want to be loved on and pet and are so affectionate and loving that they deserve human interaction every day. They deserve the best care every day. That is nonnegotiable for me. All kittens are fixed and vaccinated. Ready to go. Some are as old as seven months now.
