Who are we?
Thanks for checking our page out! I am sure by now you are wondering who exactly we are, and what exactly it is that we do. Here is our story!
Many years ago, I (Kandice) began fostering bottle baby kittens with an area shelter, Peaceable Kingdom, located in Whitehall, PA. I have raised many varieties of orphaned animals, many by bottle feeding, so when I contacted them as a potential new foster home, the bottle baby program is where they landed me. I immediately loved my role on the bottle baby kitten team. Although it has proven to be exhausting and extremely hard around the clock work, I could not imagine my life without my neonatal kittens in it.
Over the years my entire family has joined in on the care of the newborns within my home. Everybody helps care for them and it is a tremendous team effort. It was only a natural advancement after hundreds of bottle baby fosters, that we decided as a family to break away from Peaceable Kingdom and begin our own small rescue. Foxy’s Cradle was officially born.
In early 2019 a brand new nursery was built in my home to accommodate these little ones consisting of various areas. We have a quarantine area for new intakes and ill or high risk kittens. We have a mother/baby suite that caters to homeless moms with kittens who need a safe place to nurse and raise their young. We have the neonatal room which is temperature controlled and has the capability of housing up to 30 neonatal kittens in pods (cozy kennels). When they outgrow the pods, we have larger kennels to give them the safe feeling of a secure area, yet is large enough for them as they begin to play and exercise. The next step is the borderline running area, which allows them an area for free run in a kitten-proofed play area. This is the area where they will remain until they are completely weaned off of a bottle and able to join the large kitten room. The older kitten room is a wide open room filled with cat trees, hammocks, toys, and lots of fun things for the weaned and healthy kittens to explore. This is the last in the progression before the kittens are adopted and ready to go into your home!
