01What it does

What Kiski Valley Cat & Kitten Rescue does

Mission

Kiski Valley Cat & Kitten Rescue is dedicated to the prevention of cruelty and neglect toward cats by providing shelter to homeless cats as long as it takes until a safe and permanent home of their own is found. When deemed necessary, veterinary treatment, including spaying neutering and distemper and rabies vaccinations are obtained for the cats. Euthanasia is not considered unless a cat is gravely ill and then it is done to prevent or end the cat's suffering.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.

Programs

  1. In 2024 KVCKR transported countless numbers of cats and kittens to clinics for spay/neutering, rabies and distemper vaccinations, and Leukemia and FIV testing. If fleas, worms, or ear mites were detected the cats received treatment.

  2. KVCKR sheltered in excess of 150 cats at any given time in 2024. The cats were given veterinary care, fresh water daily and were fed both dry and canned food. They were provided with pleasant living conditions, including heated buildings, air conditioning, water fountains, and outdoor enclosed patios. Our "feral" cats and our Leukemic cats who were otherwise healthy were not euthanized, but were provided with the same care as the more adoptable of our population. The cats at KVCKR are allowed to live out their lives at the shelter if adoptive homes are not found for them. Our cats are not euthanized until they are suffering from old age and/or appear to have a fatal illness and have no quality of life remaining.

  3. 100 KVCKR cats and kittens were placed in loving adoptive homes in 2024.

  4. KVCKR donated or provided at cost flea, worm, and ear mite treatments for community cats. KVCKR helped local communities get their cat populations under control by loaning out traps for TNR, and by absorbing the cost of the spay/neutering as funds were available. Both dry and canned cat food was donated to persons feeding outdoor colonies of cats as excess food became available to the shelter.

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

35% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund KISKI VALLEY CAT & KITTEN RESCUE.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $7k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
