    Hi Daniel. We appreciate your appreciation 😉 and are  glad you're excited about The Kitten Conference  on June 6-7. We're excited too. It's two days worth of educational content about kittens, kittens, kittens. What could be better? Have you checked out our free Kitten Resource Library at https://library.kittencoalition.org as well as our free live and on-demand webinars? Please tell me more about your Foster Kitten. Thank you. Nancy

    Hi Nancy


    I agree–little could be better than two days of educational content about kittens.


    In the comic book series Lumberjanes, a girl named Ripley momentarily obtains the power of the gods. With it, she makes two wishes: one, that nobody ever has this much power again; two, that everybody has a kitten. Less concentrated power and more kittens seems to me like a compelling recipe for a better world.


    Yes, the National Kitten Coalition's resources are fantastic–contemporary, organized, comprehensive, and accessible. They are among those I consult most frequently (alongside ASPCA, Koret, and Maddie's).


    Foster Kitten is a cloud-based, iOS and web app to support fosters in the care of neonates:


    https://fosterkitten.app/

    https://apps.apple.com/us/app/foster-kitten/id6754807732


    It started as a weekend project and evolved into an 18-months-and-still-going collaboration with fosters, veterinarians, and shelter coordinators. From the NKC conference I am hoping to advance my own practice of care and strengthens the app's clinical foundations and resources.


    Kind Regards,
