I found an injured kitten and was not sure where to take him. Fortunately I found Jessica with Orphan Kitten Rescue! She was an amazing resource to me and helped me find care for the kitten. She is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about caring for the cats that fall through the cracks in our community! It's amazing having such an advocate for the small and furry in our town! I have since adopted a kitten from the rescue and Jessica is always tremendously helpful when I have questions. Highly recommend! read more

Took a poor abandoned kitten for me and re-homed him. Thank you so much for your devotion.

Jessica really cares for any and all cats that come her way! I've been fostering with her since October of 2025 and this is not your average rescue. It's mainly medical-needs cats with rough backgrounds and goes to show how much she is bettering their situation. The vet she works with, Dr. Marchiondo and her technician Noelle are also amazing and very flexible to work with. The cats have also all been extraordinarily friendly and loving once given a chance to recover and relax. If you really want to make a difference, these cats are the most in need and deserving! read more

Jessica, Lisa, and the whole volunteer team at OKR is an amazing resource here in town! I've been lucky enough to visit them during a couple adoption events, and they truly care about what they do. They take on troublesome cases that may be more sick or injured than other rescues can handle, and give these forgotten babies so much care and love. They also participate in many outreach events, helping educate on common feline illnesses, and stray population control. I recently brought by what I thought was a sick stray, and Jessica helped me get his chip scanned, administer medicine, and reunite him with his owner. Had he not had an owner, they have an entire quarantine ward of kittens on the mend to assure that everyone stays healthy and happy. If you're thinking of adopting, or even just want to get some kitten therapy, I highly recommend stopping by the rescue to check it out and volunteer your time. They have a reasonable adoption fee that goes straight back into the rescue, getting more kittens fixed and ready for homes with shots. Don't forget to bring a much appreciated bag of kitten food as a thanks for petting the babies! read more

We adopted our 2 fur babies in 2022 for our daughter. Menudo & Pozole have been such a blessing to our family. Jessica and OKR made the foster to adoption process so enjoyable. We would've never known about OKR if we hadn't seen Jessica on an episode of Good Day! What she and her team of volunteers are doing is an absolute blessing to the community. If you're thinking about adding to your family, all your needs will be met at Orphan Kitten Rescue. If you can't adopt, please consider donating to help support Jessica & OKR. read more

I found this organization online because my son wanted a kitten. I contacted the organization the entire team is amazing. I love that they have an open house you can interact with the cats. Jessica has literally turned her garage into a cat rescue. The way the garage is remodeled really accommodates all the cats. The entire team is so amazing. The cost is reasonable for everything the cats come with. They get their shots are dewormed as well as get fixed.They make sure you get a carrier to take them home. I would text them with questions and they were beyond helpful. They really know cats and are seriously experts. I got two kittens from them and has literally the best decisions we have ever made. If you are considering getting a cat I only recommend this place they are beyond amazing. I could not thank this place enough to helping me get rid of my son's anxiety. They are beyond 5 stars and we love them so much. read more

The beginning of December we visited Jessica at Orphan Kitten rescue looking for an addition to our family. She was very inviting and we didn't feel any pressure while looking at the kittens. After a while, we felt a connection with our boy Cosmo. Jessica was kind enough to hold him for a few more weeks because we were not ready to bring him home yet. Cosmo fit right in and we couldn't imagine our lives without him. He is so perfect and I'm so grateful for OKR. read more

We adopted a kitten from the rescue almost a year ago and it was the best decision we ever made! He will be a year old in April. We talked to one of the volunteers and explained what kind of personality of a kitty we needed to fit in with our family. We listed off qualities that we needed and she quickly identified him. She was like, this is the best cat for your family. And boy was she right! He continues to be healthy, happy and just a joy in our home. They made the whole process simple and easy! read more

I would like to share my wonderful experience with the ladies at the Orphan Kitten Rescue. I met the ladies from the rescue at a cat show in Stockton, Jessica & Lisa were working the show and we decided to stop and chat. One of our fur babies went missing for several months and our youngest fur baby was very lonely. We stopped and adopted Pumpkin, she is an orange tabby which is rare because on 20% orange tabbies are female. The girls at OKR are the best, from the moment we talked to them until the day we left with our new addition they were so supportive. Ohh, and to add to the story our missing little girl showed up 2 weeks later now we are a happy family of 4 fur babies. read more
