I am running for Team Kitten Rescue the 2018 Los Angeles Marathon

Kitten Rescue is a non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and placement of homeless animals. Each year they rescue over 1,000 cats (and some dogs!) from the streets and city shelters and place them into new homes. Kitten Rescue is on the forefront of making Los Angeles a No-Kill City and they will not stop until all of the shelters are empty and every animal has a loving home.

Kitten Rescue is comprised of dedicated volunteers who devote much of their time to helping homeless animals, while juggling their own families, jobs and lives as best as they can! At any given time you may find them bottle feeding orphaned kittens, nursing sick cats and dogs to health, visiting high-kill shelters to save animals, running back and forth to veterinary clinics, trapping community cats for spay/neuter, feeding community cats, taming feral kittens, rehabilitating animals with behavioral issues, taking foster animals to adoption events, or delivering animals to their forever homes.

The Kitten Rescue Sanctuary is home to up to 150 special needs cats and around 1000 animals are cared for in foster homes at any given time. In 2016 Kitten Rescue opened the Kitten Rescue Nursery, where they bottle feed orphaned, unweaned kittens around the clock.

Meet Cleese. Kitten Rescue saved him from East Valley Shelter, as an orphaned, unweaned kitten, and brought him to The Kitten Rescue Nursery. He showed signs of deformity early on. The smaller bones in both front and back legs on one side are shorter than the long ones and so they don't fuse to the wrist. He deals just fine now, but there is concern that those shorter bones aren't growing at the same rate as the larger ones, in which case he may have problems, even pain, later on. The vet wants to do another x-ray when he is one year old. If the bones have not grown at the same rate, there is a surgery that they can perform to fuse the bones so there is more support. I am running for Cleese and kittens like him, who would not have a chance without Kitten Rescue.
