Little Orphans Kitten Rescue, Inc.

   We believe orphaned kittens deserve a chance at life.  When newborn kittens are found without their mother, shelters and other rescues often do not have the capability of providing the intensive care these kittens need.  This lack of resource and time makes orphaned kittens the population of healthy, adoptable animals most vulnerable to euthanasia.  Founded in 2011, our mission is to reduce euthanasia rates at area shelters by providing care for orphaned kittens under six weeks of age (aka "bottle babies").  Thanks to Little Orphans Kitten Rescue, shelters and the general public now have an alternative to euthanasia! 

   As we provide care around the clock and often run into health issues related to separation from their mother, raising these babies can become quite expensive.  With your donation, we can be well equipped to save more lives.  Every tiny life matters and we greatly appreciate your support in being their hero!

Who We Are

Little Orphans Kitten Rescue (LOKR) is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization founded in 2011 to provide care for orphaned neonatal kittens or "bottle babies" (typically under 6 weeks old). Motherless nursing kittens are typically euthanized by shelters and not accepted by other rescues because they require constant around-the-clock care, just like a human infant. Through our "Shelter Kitten" program LOKR supports and encourages area shelters in their efforts to go "no kill" by caring for the babies they receive on condition that the shelter accept the return of them when weaned and agree to adopt and not euthanize them.
