Our Story
Founded in 2019 by a group of passionate kitten advocates, Kittens First for San Jose Animal Care Center is an educational nonprofit partnered with the San Jose Animal Care Center. We believe that all kittens deserve a chance to live, and that is why we’re putting Kittens First.
Every year, the San Jose Animal Care Center receives over 5,000 kittens that are born in our community. Often, these newborn kittens are sick, injured, or orphaned and need 24/7 care in order to survive. Thankfully, the shelter has a kitten nursery and a foster program to save these vulnerable felines.
Kittens First for San Jose Animal Care Center provides online training and resources for the shelter’s kitten volunteers. By empowering through education, we strive to strengthen and grow our kitten-loving community.
Rescue organizations, the shelter, and Kittens First all work to save as many kittens as possible―accomplishing more together than we ever could do alone. Together, and with your help, we can provide a social safety net for kittens.
