A Very Special Rescue
IBR started with a Mom, Pam, and Daughter, Danielle, team doing community service for Junior high class requirement. The duo continued their work after Danielle joined the California Army National Guard and worked at the headquarters which was right around the corner from the old sacramento county shelter. She kept bringing home multiple baby kittens for foster care and then returned to the county for adoption. In July 2012 they incorporated Itsie Bitsie Rescue as an official non-profit group. Their first official intake was a little orange tabby kitten named Poodywoo who was adopted by a Colonel in the National Guard. In March 2011 we started to grow adding more and more fosters each year to increase from our 70-80 kittens each year to the current 400+ animals. Everyone in the IBR family is a volunteer – we have no paid staff.
With each year, IBR continues to grow as we provide individualized care to all fur babies that come our way. If you are interested in joining our family as a volunteer or foster, click here for more information. For donation opportunities, click here.
- Kittens may arrive in towels, boxes or crates – all by themselves or in litters from 2-9!
- Sad and pitiful or shy and plump, they come in all sizes and conditions.
Once they have been spayed or neutered, dewormed, vaccinated, microchipped, and given lots of love, they will be ready for adoption.
- Then they are ready for their forever homes!

CHANGE A LIFE TODAY
When you adopt from Itsie Bitsie Rescue, you save two lives. Not only are you providing a loving home to your new furever friend, you are allowing us to care for other animals that are in need of a second chance too! If you would like to be a part of the process, either adoption or volunteering, we’d love to share this special experience with you.
We adopted our cutie a couple of weeks ago. She was so well socialized, loving and happy! She adjusted easily to her new life. Love Itsie Bitsie Rescue!
I have three Itsie Bitsie kittys, love them all. I love what you all do! Thank you so much for saving the kitty babies!
My daughter and I have adopted both our kitties from Itsie Bitsie and we couldn’t be happier! Their kitties are so well taken care of and are so well adjusted and socialized. We have loved both adoption experiences. Couldn’t recommend this rescue more!!!
Adopted one of my cats a few years ago from them, they are amazing and would do it again if my apartments allowed more than 2 cats.
These guys are kitten heros!!! Thank you for all that you do for the babies!
