The Foster Kitten Project

The Foster Kitten Project (FKP) specializes in neonatal kittens, which are defined as newborns up until four weeks of age and rely on others, generally their mother, for 100% protection, warmth, and nutrition. Many shelters are unable to take on this group of kittens due to their intensive round the clock care, and as a result, they are one of the largest groups euthanized in the United States. Because of their fragile state, neonates also have a high mortality rate. Still, FKP tries to give them their best chance at life by bottle feeding, keeping them warm, providing medical care, and matching them with their purr-fect furever family when they have matured and are healthy enough.
