Kentucky Kitty Cats, Inc.

About Us

Kentucky Kitty Cats, Inc. is a no-kill, nonprofit 501c3 charitable organization.

We have been helping felines since 2013. We are located in the Ohio/Muhlenberg County Region of Kentucky. Five of the local shelters in our area are closed to intake on a regular basis, leaving many pets dumped to fend for themselves without resources. Our primary goal is assist pets and humans through adoption services, access to low cost spay/neuter, community outreach programs, educating pet owners, pet food pantry assistance, and other services as available.It is our belief that with support we hope to keep the populations low and assist the owners in caring for their pets and out of the shelters. However, a huge part of our rescue has become caring for the ones that have been abandoned to die on the streets. We are always in need of foster parents, especially in Muhlenberg County where the bulk of our animals come from.  We especially need temporary fosters as we work situations with double digit pet populations. We have worked several locations this year with  30-60 unaltered cats. As the economy worsens, the living conditions for these precious animals parallels that trend. 

Our Current Stats

We currently are averaging caring for close to 200 animals and a few pooches on any given day. After 5 years we have finally found an economical acceptable way out of our Cat House in Hartford.  This means once the sale goes thru, we will be moving forward with the makeover at the sanctuary in Rosine and completing the set up of the Cottage at the Wilderness. We have new fosters in Muhlenberg and will eventually work on additional space there, but overall the cats are very pleased to be out of the city life.

Our immediate need is to increase our  our spay/neuter efforts. We have months that 4-500 cats are getting altered. The new clinic is almost complete and is an additional 17 miles away in distance. While the number of surgeries will increase, the number that can't drive will as well. We desperately need transporters to help get the cats to the Spay Neuter Clinic, so the breeding can stop. Our next big goal is to find a transport vehicle.  As of the close of July 2024, we have taken in over 460 cats and dogs this year and helped hundreds more remain in their home totally  with the GRACE of GOD and some amazing supporters.

How Can You Help

We desperately need number oriented humans to help crunch the data, write grants, or even do fundraising projects. Our rescue only has a few volunteers and are in need of a dozen more.  As the new clinic opens up, we definitely need jolly, kind like minded people to join us and make sure every animal that enters receives the best of care on a nickel and dime budget.  If transportation is your thing, that is always a huge need. Even if you only wanted to volunteer one day or oversee one fundraiser, you would be saving so many lives. Also please see ways to help us raise funds on our home page and ways to donate in the sidebar. Finding friends and family to pick us as their Kroger Reward group or to donate pocket change on Walmart round ups would be amazing. Being a voice for the babies is always going to make a difference. Just volunteering to make phone calls is a blessing. 

Our Mission

To provide temporary shelter to stray, abandoned, and surrendered animals for the purpose of finding permanent suitable new homes, rescues, or sanctuaries.

To provide assistance and financial aid through grants, fundraisers, or donations to prevent overpopulation through spaying and neutering programs.

To educate the community of the benefits of spay and neuter surgeries.

To share low/no cost information options to general public.

To network other Kentucky no-kill rescue cats to no-kill groups that have the resources to help.

To distribute low cost food to community members assisting large number of felines or to low-income citizens in times of need.

Our Vision

Kentucky Kitty Cats will be a resource for felines and their families, addressing the issue of pet over-population by providing solutions through services and prevention through education.

We will strive to be professional, kind, and work with other Kentucky agencies to rescue felines in need.  We will always do what is right by the animal!
