We are a foster based neonate rescue, with NO PUBLIC LOCATION/PHYSICAL ADDRESS. Due to the delicate nature of the kittens within our care, we DO NOT have open to the public hours. We host educational and fundraising events once a month in our mobile unit and all events will be posted on the event portion of this page. Intakes: Please TEXT the following information to 6106061885: A picture

of the kitten found, location kitten was found, number of kittens found, any health concerns visible, what steps were taken to confirm abandonment. Details on intake will be discussed directly on a case by case basis. All intakes are held within Laurys Station or Whitehall, please be prepared to keep the kittens warm while transporting to our area. We do request a surrender donation at the time of intake to offset the cost of care for each kitten. The township does NOT allow intakes to take place at the original nursery location. Any kitten left at this location will be considered abandoned and the person responsible will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law for animal abandonment/cruelty. Adoption information: An approved application must be received prior to scheduling a meet n greet with an adoptable kitten. Applications can be found online, www.foxyscradle.com. Once approved you will be contacted and a meet n greet will be scheduled at a convenient time for everybody involved in the mobile unit. Item Donations: Our shipping address is 5260 Overlook Road, Coplay, PA 18037. The township does NOT allow item donations to be directly dropped off to the same address. Pinned to the top of our page you will find a list of local small businesses who graciously support our rescue efforts by allowing supply donations to be made at their businesses. If you have a large amount, perishable items, gift cards, or monetary donations, please text 610-606-1885 to arrange for a volunteer to pickup at an agreed upon location. Volunteering Information: Applications can be found online, www.foxyscradle.com. Please follow up by texting 6106061885 to schedule an orientation and to speak further in detail. We are always looking for volunteers to help with the mobile unit, community events, and fundraising events, as well as kitten fosters for all ages. We are NOT a vet clinic. Our team has many years of experience caring for neonates, but we rely heavily on our vet partners. If you found a kitten requiring emergency care, please bring it to your nearest emergency vet immediately.

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!
