Little Orphans Kitten Rescue Cat rescue in Louisville, KY

We are a nonprofit non-sheltering rescue group established in July 2011. Our primary mission is to provide care and find adoptive homes for orphaned newborn kittens. Kittens we take in would normally be euthanized by shelters because of the constant attention required to give them proper care. We give these kittens a chance at a long, happy life.
Bottle-babies need to be fed every few hours, bathed almost daily, and shown plenty of affection so that they grow up well-adjusted and well-socialized. If you adopt a kitten from Little Orphans Kitten Rescue, you can be sure you are welcoming a happy, healthy, highly sociable kitten into your family!

Additional adoption info

Adoption fee is typically $125 for one kitten and $225 if adopting two kittens together. There is an adoption application and an adoption agreement form. We require that all kittens adopted from us be kept indoors and given full access to the home. All kittens are spayed/neutered and microchipped before being sent home to their new families (which is usually at 8-10 weeks old). They are also tested for FIV/FELV and have had at least one kitten "core" vaccine.
