How do we afford it? It isn’t easy. We seek out low cost (but not low quality) options as much as possible. We sometimes qualify for rescue discounts or save by buying in bulk. Many of our fosters help support us by paying for food and litter for their foster kittens.
Really though, the adoption fee doesn’t cover everything – especially if the kittens need any extra medical care. We largely rely on donations.
