Great article out by Best Friends defining our mission.

New data analysis comes with a clear call to action: Neonatal kittens have the highest mortality of all shelter populations — but that once they reach eight weeks old, they become among the most adoptable.

HI ALL - just got off a call with the CEO of Revival regarding the temporary disruption in production of their kitten milk replacers, including Breeder’s Edge and Shelter’s Choice.

They assured me that all kitten formula currently on the market continues to meet their quality and safety standards. After 18 years on the market, Revival has made the decision to transition to a new manufacturing partner due to concerns related to confidence in the puppy milk replacer product line. As a result, kitten formula production is temporarily paused while the transition takes place.

The expectation is that kitten milk replacer will be back on the market within the next few months—hopefully before October—and will be produced under the new manufacturer, providing even greater confidence for consumers.

For Kitten College partner programs, Revival will be reaching out directly with additional information. They have also committed to providing goodwill donations of some of their other products as a thank-you for your patience and to help offset the inconvenience during this transition.

We’re excited to introduce the Living Library on Neonatal Kitten Care 🐾 A new, collaborative resource developed by leading shelter medicine programs to provide clear, evidence-based guidance for anyone caring for neonatal kittens.

This resource brings together the latest information and best practices in one easy-to-access place, supporting shelters, rescues, foster networks, veterinary teams, and community caregivers. The best part? Because it’s a living resource, you can trust that the latest information and guidance will always be added right here in the library! 🐱 Explore the Living Library using the link in our bio or by visiting our website.
