ACF provides some equipment and covers some of the expenses of new volunteers who provide temporary foster care or who adopt an entire family of kittens.

Our campaign (called "Keep Families Together") raises awareness of the opportunity that many people who adopt might not be aware of. When adopting a kitten, please ask "How many sisters and brothers does this kitten have? Are those kittens also available for adoption?"
VOLUNTEER HOURS FOR TEENAGERS
We have a project that focuses on reaching teenagers. Students often need proof showing that they have completed a certain number of "volunteer hours" (in order to graduate from high school). Taking care of two kittens for 8 weeks (45 minutes a day) can give about 40 volunteer hours. CLICK HERE for more info

Six Reminders: The organization also promotes effective and psychosocial well-being with recommendations such as
(1) When adopting a kitten, ask “Does this kitten have any brothers and sisters? If so, I’d like to adopt them, too.” Don't separate kittens .
(2) Clean Daily "one litter box per cat and "add an extra litter box" and
(3) "Provide hiding places" and safety in high places (cat trees)
(4) "Provide running water with a cat fountain."
(5) “Slow, Low, 2-5-5”:
a) approach a cat SLOWLY from the front and get on your knees, (get low) ,
(b) stop 2 feet away,
(c) stretch and hold your hand at least 5 inches from the cat’s face (and below the level of the cat’s chin), and
(d) wait 5 seconds for the cat to move closer to your hand. Then you can scratch the cat’s chin and throat.

Have you seen a mom cat with her babies before humans come to separate them? Keep kittens together. Don’t separate kittens. Put the whole group up for adoption together.
In the wild, kittens live with their mother in the bushes. So don’t separate the kittens if the mom is no longer with them: keep the kittens together. See the blog
Animals Come First, Inc., provides on-line, in-person and in-field training, as well as a mobile response team to assist volunteers locally in Florida and volunteers in communities around the globe in our mutual effort to protect animals, especially families of kittens. These volunteers are trained to bring change in their communities and educate the like-minded.
Our classes include videos to show how to set up multiple cat litter boxes, recommendations about types of equipment, and reviews of water fountains, cat trees and types of litter. We also share tips about how to be more effective in providing a clean environment for the families of kittens and how to maintain the psychosocial wellbeing of the animals. We expect our purpose will expand to include other species of animals.
