Z&M Twisted Vines Vineyard has been kind enough to allow us to bring kittens and host a fundraiser at their venue! We aim to raise funds to recoup medical costs from this summer and prepare for winter when adoptions and related revenue dip. Raffles and small merchandise items will also be present. In Person good donations accepted as well.

We are entirely foster based and 100% volunteer ran. All funds raised go directly towards basic necessities such as food, litter, and medical care for the kittens and cats we are responsible for. Community support is vital to allowing us to continue our rescue mission and caring for the most at-risk felines.

Note: All tickets must be purchased by October 1st at the latest. Until supplies last, seats are limited.

HISTORY

Founded in 2023, Team Kitten is working to create a community where all kittens are considered precious. Our mission is to rescue and rehabilitate at-risk kittens, and prepare them for loving homes. It was founded by a group of women dedicated to improving the lives of cats and kittens in their community. Years of experience in trap-neuter-return (TNR) and colony management enabled us to carefully construct an organization that we truly believe can make a difference in our local community. Each kitten brought into one of our foster homes receives full medical care, and love, before being spayed or neutered. That is one fewer future litter we prevent by addressing the crisis in the beginning of the cycle. While there is no one fix to such a large problem, Team Kitten stands proudly amongst other local organizations in the fight against cat overpopulation.

COMMITMENT

As of August 21st Team Kitten has taken in or TNR'd nearly 400 cats and kittens and we recently celebrated our 200th adoption! At any one time we have averaged over 100 cats and kittens in our care over the course of 2024. We are honored to have all of those felines in one of nearly 30 active foster homes in the Topeka area as well as near by towns. Each foster home offers a safe haven for vulnerable and often times orphaned kittens. As 2024 continues and we look towards the future, Team Kitten is dedicated to continuing to grow and help as many felines as they can in the coming years.

COLLABORATION

We proudly work with local TNR groups both inside and near Shawnee county. These organizations often times struggle to find placement for kittens discovered during trapping. One less litter is a load off caretakers and trappers for that area. We also take in injured and sick kittens from our local community to alleviate the strain put on local shelters and near by humane society.

In July of this year we were proud to officially kick off our partnership with the newly opened Topeka Cat Café. They have been a vital partner in helping adopt out and care for numerous kittens and cats . Being foster only can limit our ability to find homes for adult cats, especially the mama cats we take in. Working with the Topeka Cat Café has enabled us to take in these mama cats without worry that we will struggle to find them a home. They provide a much needed resource in the Topeka community.
